Steve's Outrage of the Day: The Return

Stories like this one just really make me mad. We have the Republican being held by the balls by some "Old Testament Christians" (oxymoron much?) who think that killing judges who rule against them is good public policy. We have Republican "leaders" in Congress who must try and do what the far right wingers what so that they can run for President in 2008.

The Republicans are basically the party of "No Control Over Your Body or Lives."

Want to have an abortion for whatever reason (danger to you or wish to start a family later)? No, that's murder!

Want to prevent a pregency using birth control? No, that's murder too!

Want to have a living will to determine what extremes should be taken to prolong or end your life? No, you should live as vegetable until we feel it is unwise politically.

Want to preserve the environment so that you can teach your kids to hunt? No, but keep those guns out there for us to use as a wedge issue.

Want to get married? Fine, but not if you're one of those "icky gay people who chose to be immoral."

Want to declare bankrupcy due to medical expenses occurred by a loved one? No, you will never get out from under the debt that you have occurred.

Basically, the Republicans have become the party of the fetus right up until birth, then you're on your own; the party of the corporations; and the party of religious Freaks that only recall one versus of the Old Testament and none of the New Tesatment. Oh yea, and blowing up brown-skinned people in other countries.

The current Republican Party is a horrible joke but I'm not laughing.
