lislejoyeuse: please listen to Dan Savage’s rant from the beginning of the March 1st Savage Lovecast, about the GOP’s appalling campaign to cut federal funding from planned parenthood. Dan is so on point about the core motives of the people who are pushing to end funding for PP. this is not so much about the fact that PP is an abortion services provider (even though only 3% of the services PP provides are abortion services, and they are NOT payed for with federal funds) as it is about that fact that PP is an organization that educates and enables people to make decisions regarding their own sex lives, decisions that might not include sacred procreation between man and wife. and that, my friends, is the only kind of sex that these republicans consider acceptable; and trust that they will continue to try and chip away at the laws and institutions in this country that protect our sexual and reproductive rights. need proof of their hypocrisy? look no further than the paradox that Dan calls attention to: why aren’t those who are anti-abortion also pro-contraception, since increased availability of contraception would surely help prevent many abortions from ever happening? because they simply don’t want us to have options that enable us to have non-reproductive sex.

This is for everyone who has now become fans of The Runaways…”Eight days a week.”
