Take Action: Oppose Alito

Take Action: Oppose Alito

It's a petition being gathered by One America for All of Us, which I believe is John Edwards' organization. Please sign it ASAP.

Amazing blog. I love it! I have to disagree with your "Why Abortion Should Be Free" essay though. I'm afraid it portrays abortion as such a scary, horrible experience, that it will only demonize it more. I had mine with only local anaesthesia, walked to the next room no problem, went home about 90 minutes later. It wasn't as distressing as what you describe. I only felt relief. I feel like I saved my own life that day, thank Goddess I had the right to make that choice.

Will do! Point me to any and every petition to sign re: saMALito, with the "mal" standing for Latin bad, bad, bad, and "ito," Spanish for small, small, small. This small, bad man *must* be stopped. [I'm listening right now to the run-in between Specter and Kennedy on whether or not Specter received a communique that Kennedy swore he sent him. Fireworks!]

I'm coming to see Alito as a small frightened man, one who can easily be (and has been) frightened into doing the bidding of the Bush Crime Family. He's nothing but a timid little Mafia lawyer.

Greetings:

Here is the link to John Edwards/One America Committee petition to send to Dem Senators to oppose the confirmation of Judge Sam Alito.

Thanks for sharing your abortion experience, sandra. I hear abortion discussed day after day (mostly by men), but rarely hear women brave enough to talk about their own actual experience with it.

There's something that rankles me, however, about thanking the Goddess for the "right" to abort. Whether the state recognizes it or not, women will always, and have always, had exclusive rights over their own bodies.
