The Blunt amendment was voted down today in the Senate. In Virginia, the Republicans passed a bill that chips away at the rights of women. Scott Brown is backing the Blunt amendment. It should be helpful for Elizabeth Warren who is running against him. (make MA proud of its senator once again and vote for Warren, you from Massachusetts!)
The Virginians passed their draconian bill by 2 votes while the Senate bill in Washington DC lost by three votes, Sen Snowe from Maine casting the vote against it as the only Republican senator to do so as she announces her resignation. She will not run for another six year term.
Rush Limbaugh spoke about this young woman, Sandra Fluke (calling her Susan) and switched the subject totally. (Ms Fluke was the witness for women whom Sen Issa denied as not a fit witness.) The tiny, insensitive heart living in that fleshy chest showed itself for what it is. It is being called, The War on Women. The fact that this was an amendment to a transportation bill, tagged on in a sneaky way, apparently didn't fool the Democrats, only the ridiculous Republicans who vote in lock step (with the exception of moderate Sen Snowe who finally voted her conscience.)
It seems there are those who are trying to push the clock back several centuries. We seem to have a Congress full of men who believe in: "Keep them barefoot and pregnant". as their tiny testicles disappear from fright at the sight of a strong woman. And we have been told that Neanderthals are extinct! Actually I read that Neanderthals and modern humans must have mated because there is evidence in modern genes with Neanderthal DNA.
