Don't get me wrong, I think those Repugnant bastards should be sued relentlessly and forces gathered and deployed to overcome the roadblocks put into place.
But apathy is by far a greater number than blocked.

As if they were afraid of offending the right wingers by calling it out as what it is.
Sometimes I think it is all just a show they are putting on for us, that the real decisions and power are not in the light of day...and they all want an end to democrocy...to replace it with a kind of reality show that keeps us angry and confused...and unable to do anything to stop them.
