Double Vision

You’d think, given the current Texas budget crisis, that Texas politicians would be focused on that. I guess a $15-$27B shortfall isn’t important enough to warrant serious attention.

Twin dumbasses, Governor Rick Perry and Texas Senator (R-Houston) Dan Patrick have decided it’s more important for the government of the State of Texas to pass legislation mandating a medical procedure on women.

You see, Dan "This is God's time to pass this bill” Patrick and Secession Perry have decided that government not only belongs in our wallets an pocketbooks, but also in a woman’s uterus.

That’s right, girls. If you get pregnant and decide you don't want to have the baby, you will be forced to have an ultrasound. Both the Texas Senate and the Texas House of Representatives have approved just such a bill.

But wait! There’s more! Even if you get raped and impregnated by a gang of Somali pirates (or worse yet, Republican politicians!), you’ll have to have that ultrasound. Let’s call it a figurative cherry on top of the whole “experience.”

The hypocrisy of the Republican Party is acutely bewildering. The Duncepublicans had a little shit fit when it was proposed that school meals be regulated to help save little Johnny from becoming Big Fat Johnny and dying prematurely. God fucking forbid! And adding a tax of a couple of pennies to chemical-laced junk food? Lordy no! God forbid I not poison myself or my children! And federal health care legislation? Fuck no! That’s all just too much gubment in my bidness. Don’t tread on me you commie fucks!

I’ve written all my shit-for-brains state representatives and senators to voice my displeasure.

That is all.

Oh. Wait. I went to Mr. Patrick’s web site to see what I can see and saw this prominently displayed on his site as his claim to fame: “Dan's first legislative accomplishment was to have ‘In God We Trust’ permanently displayed in the Senate Chamber.” and “He passed legislation placing ‘In God We Trust’ permanently in the Texas Senate Chamber and passed the Senate bill to place ‘Under God’ in the state pledge. Now, some Danquotes:

"There will be times when all of us sit at our desk, and we'll be able to look at the words, 'In God We Trust,' and maybe get us through those times,"

"There will be times when all of us sit at our desk, and we'll be able to look at the words, 'In God We Trust,' and maybe get us through those times…and know that God is looking out for us,"

Jesus H. Christ. Talk about a jamming shit down citizens’ throats.

Okay…I’m done now. Fer reals this time.
