More GOP obsession with rape (and incest)

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness --The Declaration of Independence

Americans don't have the right to engage in activities that bring them happiness (paraphrased) --Bill Thompson

.
We are guaranteed the right to pursue it... but not to achieve it. That takes wining, and dining, and jewelry and movies and more whining..

In a political context, the Republicans have completely hijacked the word "values". To me, using the ordinary definition of "values" would mean that everyone votes their values. Under the Republican hijack, "values" means "traditional family values" which means, in turn, "god, guns and gays"

.
And lots of wives.

In BT's defense, the Declaration of Independence is not a legal document. It was basically just a 'Dear John' letter to Great Britain.

Do you believe that Americans don't have the right to pursue happiness?

Or you can cut to the chase and pay $1500 for a porn star escort...

Yeah!
I'm already used to the looks..."What is -she- doing with him?"...

Nate Silver is now showing Donnelly in the lead in the Indiana senate race, with the post-debate polls strongly solidly favoring him.

I fear that Dick Mourdock is going down. We can only hope.
