I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Linkee-poo double Friday

Some information on the cutting social security debate. Really, remove the top cap on taxes and bingo, problem solved. (Grokked from Jay Lake)

Okay conservatives, you can stop it. We all get there's a lot of you in the closet. But really, not only voting against gay rights, but then engaging in prostitution to get your gay fix? It's not funny anymore.

Jon Stewart takes Megyn Kelly to task for her stance on entitlements. One thing not mentioned here, if it wasn't for the Family Medical Leave Act, Megyn Kelly would have to had quit, as people did before. But, yes, those things that benefit us are right and proper, everybody else's rights are shit and we need to take them away. I wonder if she remembers there was a time you didn't see any female faces in the TV newsrooms (except for the "weather girl")? And yes, in my lifetime. Match this up to the "Yes we had an abortion, and it saved our lives, but all of you shouldn't have that chance" social conservative.

Next stop for the ACA/Health Care Reform, en ban or Supreme Court? So far, it's still been upheld by more courts than have struck it down, but we all knew it would make the Supremes for their say.
