Monday Soap Box
I really didn’t think that any Governor could top Texas Governor Gregg (Hell-On-Wheels) Abbott for being a total asshole, but I was wrong. Republican Governor Paul (Total Asshole) LePage of Maine is clearly a contender. Peccant Paul vetoed a bipartisan bill that would have allowed pharmacists to dispense an effective anti-overdose drug. He gave this reason for vetoing it, “Naloxone does not truly save lives; it merely extends them until the next overdose,” And there you have it, another compassionate Republican at work. Fortunately lawmakers voted unanimously to override his veto.
Once again I am reminded that I live in the midst of Red-neck, Right-Wing Republican, Religious Wackos. Lufkin City Councilman Mike (I Come From A Family Of) Hicks plans to introduce an anti-transgender bathroom ordinance in response to Target’s announced restroom policy. Little Mikey said, “it is the likely impersonation of transgender for criminal purposes that is worrying." As far as I can tell, there has never been a police report anywhere in the United States of a man putting on a wig and dress so he could go into a ladies restroom to molest children, but I do have to say it seems to me that there are thousands of assholes like Mike out there impersonating Christians.
But on the plus side, I have as my partner in crime and cohort in life, one of the most creative people on the planet. She is a great artist and wonderful writer and you don’t have to take my word for it because you can check it out right here.
Stay tuned for future adventures.
