The House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on the so-called “Protect Life Act” at 11:30 – right now! Yes, this is another vote to stop abortion insurance coverage. I don’t know about you, but it’s pretty clear to me this is what people are really demanding at all the Occupy Wall Street protests popping up all over the country – more abortion restrictions. Good job Congress, way to keep doing the important work.
You can watch the vote live on CSPAN if you’re in the mood to get pissed off. I imagine the feminist Twitters will be full of snark today.

Meanwhile, the House has yet to do anything like a Protect JOBS Act or Protect the Middle Class Act. We need to get active and vote out the Tea Party in 2012!
I wish americans could opt out of funding wars to which they are fundamentally opposed as easily as americans opt out of providing safe access to abortion. Seriously.
I am still watching this and am so grossed out by war-mongerers who claim they seek to protect all life under God and State. I might be less grossed out if they were all opposed to war and capital punishment too but those are their favorite priveledges. AHHHH!
