Thanks for this. I've thought about doing a post of this sort many times but always got overwhelmed by the sheer amount of nightmare fuel I would need to wade through...and then laziness would take over, lol.

I think it's really important for all of us that are even a fraction of an inch to the left of center to keep focused on what we're up against, and what's really important (i.e., turning the House and Senate both as blue as possible in 2018). Right now I'm hopeful about that, partly because I can see how much opposition there is to Lord Marmalade and partly because I personally know so many people who are fired up and ready to work their asses off to get the right people elected next year. I know what the level of cynicism is like in this comm sometimes, but personally, I refuse to give in to that. There's too much work to be done to expend any of my energy on cynicism or on arguing about "what ifs".

So in one bill they roll back an Obama regulation FORBIDDING states to do something that makes health care unavailable (and about "hurting the community health centers that so many Americans - especially women - depend upon", most of those community health centers don't exist and don't have nearly the capacity that Planned Parenthood does). In the name of states' rights.

In the next bill they roll back an Obama regulation ALLOWING states to do something that makes retirement planning available. So much for states' rights.

I fucking haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate these people. I want so badly to stay informed and keep fighting the good fight, but really don't like being filled with all this hate and vitriol - it's exhausting!

They should all fly to Galt's Gulch and disappear.
