I feel like screaming out 'where did my America go?'... Transgender people I would venture to say, have a very difficult life as it is.. Next up: women in the military.. too expensive to supply sanitary supplies.. these are indeed very troubling times in my beloved country.
We can't stop screaming that, Kate. I loved seeing the young protesters outside the Senate chambers on the night of the Health Care vote. I loved their chanting, "Kill that bill!" and their erupting into cheers when it was killed. And we have to yell at our representatives at Town halls and send them e-mails. But, as I have said before, I have opened my wallet more. I am giving more money to the ACLU; giving to Planned Parenthood for the first Time; and continuing my support for the Southern Poverty Law Center. I never considered Planned parenthood a radical organization before, one in need of my support. It seemed to me, more like my child's PTA, a good group, but one I would support in good times. I don't feel that anymore. Now it is on my urgent list.
