South Dakota Indians To Offer Abortion Clinics Safe Harbor

This is an interesting development. There are few states without a Rez, and although they are often remote, if these state bans stick, it could be part of an answer. Planned Parenthood will need to raise a few million dollars for constuction, and NAARAL can do something useful by offering to subsidize transportation to and from Soverign Territory for women in need.

The wingers heads will 'splode of course, but I think it would work.

Krebs' birthday, a typical slaughter for me. Fun, but kind of unhinged, adolescent. Jello shots? What!?! It was all downhill from there...

I've got to work on my Drinking Liberally style. This wasn't that, but the pattern was the same. It always seems I get there too early, and then get too drunk by the time people I want to talk to arrive. Perhaps I should try harder to be fashionably late, or maybe stick to water for a time. Would be easier on the wallet/liver too.

On the plus side I had a productive afternoon meeting with Jon and Eric. Check it out:

We're making a "Political Digg."

Clicky clicky; listen, listen.

A torrent for the whole double-album is in my torrentfeed.

Via Atrios, we find that Chris Matthiews is finally realizing the Iraq wasn't, in fact, payback for 9/11:

MSNBC's Chris Matthews: "Well I am just going to stick to this point that the president led us in there with the background music of American culture. Everybody was led to believe that we were getting payback, we were avenging what happened on 9/11 and that we are going to get them."

That's why we're at war -- because we had to get them. It was fucking obvious from the start to anyone who cared to take a deep breath and think about it that this was irrational and bullshit.

I wonder, when will Mr. Matthiews begin to question and contemplate his own complicity in all this?
