I generally love October - Autumn is settling in, the leaves are changing, and the end of the month brings both Halloween and the Emperor's birthday. By the final week, he's practically vibrating out of his skin. Now that I have his birthday party booked and invitations sent out, plus his costume all planned, I should be sitting pretty.

But this election shit is threatening to make my head FUCKING EXPLODE.

I have an Obama sign in front of my house. I wouldn't vote Republican in a normal year. But this year, when women's rights are currently being nudged at swordpoint off the Tea Party ship, almost nothing could convince me otherwise.

So when the mudslingers are sending daily flyers in the snail mail, attacking the local Democratic candidate for Congress by slamming his support of "Obamacare" and asking "Can you imagine living in a country where a panel of 15 bureaucrats could limit your access to medical care?", I want to march into the headquarters of the so-called "The New Prosperity Foundation" and scream. What the fuck else do you call it but limiting my access to health care when you want to defund Planned Parenthood and mandate women and their doctors entirely out of controlling their own medical decisions?

AAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!

I'm sorry - I don't normally post political stuff. But this is the kind of fuckery up with which I will not put.
