Another day..another hearing..
I got back home this morning from my walk in time for the end of the love fest for Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. I guess it lasted for hours and maybe I should be thankful that I missed most of it. SSDD..same shit, different day. Tea Party/GOP members of the committee went down the yellow brick road with their Kansas references. Sec. Sebelius is the former governor of Kansas, hence the comments. But they weren’t in praise of anything. I saw committee members interrupt her, while claiming that she wouldn’t answer their questions. I heard nothing but contempt from these people, and it was disgusting.
I would ask the committee if the conservative members really wanted any answers at all today. And when are we going to have a hearing that grills the Tea Party/GOP in the same manner on the effects of the shutdown, and the endless obstruction they’ve engaged in while President Obama has been in office? Jesus..he won. Get over it.
The American people know who the troublemakers are. And if the guys don’t know, women do. Women know who the culprits are. We know which members of Congress are hurting our children, our families, our financial security, our basic safety, and our constitutional protections. We know which lawmakers are more concerned with controlling women’s bodies and which lawmakers follow the law and respect our privacy. We know who wants to suppress our vote. We know who kisses the collective asses of the 1% and who couldn’t give a damn about the rest of us.
At least Secretary Sebelius is trying to do something positive for the country. Yes, there have been glitches. And all of that should have been fixed before its launch. All the GOP/Tea Pary have done is obstruct and lie. They would do the country a favor by simply staying home and not ruining things anymore. We’re moving in a positive direction on health care that we haven’t seen in a long time. I would have preferred single payer, but I know that’s coming. It will be the next step in the evolution of this process. The GOP/Tea Party need to stop obstructing and be part of the forward momentum.
The Sisterhood is alive and well and we’re tired of all this crap. And..we will vote..and you might not like the result. If you don’t live in a state with it’s own exchange, and you have to go to healthcare.gov, hang in there. This will eventually be a memory and you’ll have health insurance.
And to my Sisters out there..you know what you have to do. At the end of the day, it always comes down to us anyway. We clean up messes and dry tears. And Goddess help anyone who gets in our way.
