On "Meet the Press" Sunday, Rachel Maddow made me proud. She was my hero (again) when she challenged Jim DeMint (former US Senator from SC and now HMFIC at the Heritage Foundation) when he said this about restricting women's reproductive rights: That women would have the "opportunity" to have "free" ultrasounds, etc. etc. Rachel set him straight by saying that the ultrasound bills are not an "opportunity" but a mandated invasive procedure which is NOT free for the women who would be required to undergo them, even when it's against their will. She also set Ralph Reed straight. I hope she went home and enjoyed one of the special cocktails she sometimes concocts on her show. She deserved at least a double!
And here's one of my favorite images from Rachel's Fan Page on Facebook. Let's celebrate our Interdependence Day by joining our energies to shift this crazy trend. It's past time!
