Found this little tidbit from a twitterer I follow. I blame it on the liberties given up when the Patriot Act was passed, and which should be repealed.
Freedoms lost in fear of political events are never returned.

Hilary Clinton’s remarks to the Women in the World Summit come as Democrats and Republicans fight over issues such as access to birth control. (03/12/2012)
“Why extremists always focus on women remains a mystery to me. But they all seem to. It doesn’t matter what country they’re in or what religion they claim. They want to control women. They want to control how we dress, they want to control how we act, they even want to control the decisions we make about our own health and bodies.”
In newspapers and on TV, there have been numerous reports of efforts from to restrict the rights of women when far right Republicans gain control in Congress and state governments. I have heard these same officials lambasting foreign governments controlled by religious fanatics who restrict the rights of women. And yet these American officials have the gall to use our government to harass women.They continuously try to impose their far-right religious beliefs on our citizens. They reveal their contempt for women and their doctors.
I’m so glad they failed in another of their efforts yesterday. Religious ideology has no place in politics.
Really? This is so silly, on so many levels.

It appears some of our elected officials are becoming more radical themselves. Good thing this guy is not in my state.
getting restless, thinking of starting this up again.
1980 Reagan and Bush discourse on illegal immigrant.
Doesn’t sound like the GOP of today.
The last American Space Shuttle landed today. The Shuttle Program has given us over 30 years of innovative technology, it will be truly missed.
Video (early morning so kind of dark) of the Shuttle landing and words of farewll from Nasa and Pilots.
I can see the first one or two doing it and getting that deer-in-the-headlight look when they get caught, but after that everyone should know. What you put on the internet stays on the internet.
Rep. Weiner, apparently thought he could get away with it, but it only took a split second to hit that send button and realize “Oh Nuts! Bring it back!”.
Don’t send stuff in email, twitter, Facebook, MySpace, any social media internet based conduit that you don’t want your mother, wife, general public to see. It will always come back to haunt you.
Its pretty cool how they did this. As far as I know there are no edits, just a steady stream from people of Detroit as the lip-sync the song “American Pie”.
