Wow. It's been over a month since I've last updated.
Oops!
So I've been tracking the development of the proposed Women's History Museum to be built on the mall in Washington D.C. Last week Meryl Streep donated $1 million of her own money to the planning committee, saying 'We must get this thing built.' The bill was proposed in Congress annnnnnnd: two assholes are blocking it. One is blocking it because he believes the tax payers would be unhappy with it (um...really? it's a museum, not 2 unnecessary wars), and the other one, Congressman DeMint from South Carolina is blocking it on a request from the ultra-conservative dumbass Concerned Women for America. Why do they oppose a museum that celebrates the history of WHO THEY ARE? Because, as their CEO Peggy Nance says, '[the museum] would focus on abortion rights without featuring any of the many contributions of the pro-life movement in America.'
Oh, ok.
I think I have a solution.
The museum can feature a section with a simulator in which museum-goers can experience the feeling of being in a family planning clinic that is being firebombed.
Maybe another one where people can stand in a simulated version of Dr. George Tiller's church lobby and watch him get shot to death. Ya know, in order to really understand the pro-life point that 'murdering innocent people is bad'.
UGHSHUTUPFOREVER.
ATTN: Congressmen Coburn and DeMint--LET WOMEN KNOW THEIR HISTORY.
