This is what pro-life looks like.

Barry has marshalled the facts and figures to prove what anyone truly committed to reducing the number of abortions performed ought to do: support the full legalization of abortion and liberalize its access. —And taking advantage of the mystic secrets of bloggery, he presents his arguments in two forms: a Catholic version (tailored to the current [atrociously unfair and staggeringly ill-informed] debate on John Kerry’s status as an adherent in good standing to his faith), and a catholic version, for your more general-purpose debating needs. —Yes, Kerry is a bucket of warm spit. Yes, it would be nice if in all this “polarization of the body politic” there were anyone out there who was actually over here with, you know, us, the liberalish other to the left of what anyone with an ounce of perspective would consider the tepidly cautious corporatist center. Yes, it would be fucking wonderful if we all had ponies. But our prisoner’s dilemma has come down to yet another evil of two lessers, and in the final analysis, a douchebag is better than a Coca-Cola douche. Hardly a snappy rallying cry, I know. Lemme give it some thought.

    So I got my ballot in the mail yesterday, and despite my having mailed in the request for a party change from Indy to Dem about a month ago, ("Oh, that's plenty of time for the Elections Board," twittered the woman at the table.") I still only have non-partisan races listed on said ballot.

    If I were prone to conspiracy theories, I'd think that since I was planning to vote Kucinich in the primary, someone had conveniently "lost" my re-registration form... strictly in the name of party unity, of course. But the Oregon Democratic Party has had its head up its ass for eons, so somehow I doubt this is the case. They aren't smart enough to plan that far ahead, even in such a colossially stupid cause as continually wiping the front-runner's ass for him in hopes of getting him to run a real campaign based on real issues. Because that tactic worked sooooo damn well four years ago.

    I hate election years.

    Guess which party I'm voting for in November. :p

    Come back tomorrow and you can hear my ramblings about chemtrails.

    Coffee ? Bourbon ? Rubber mallett ?
