Weekly Round-Up (2/12 – 2/19): Tiny Vagina Governments Edition

Once again, my round-up is a day late (but hopefully not a dollar short.)  I blame Allan Brauer.  He insisted that I not blog yesterday.  (So not true.)

Anyway, here’s a bunch of stuff you may have missed last week. The long and short of it is: The GOP is trying to set up shop in your uterus — still.

I don’t know what makes Republicans think women want a tiny government in their vaginae.  The Uterati is not amused.

And with that impossibly short introduction, here are your top twelve popular posts from last week:

• Skinhead Sheriff Paul Babeu: Open the Danged Closet - Allan regales you with the tale of yet another Republican nutbag who was forced out of the closet by a man who risked deportation by said nutbag.  As Simon Maloy hilariously put it:

If you can’t deport the one you love, honey, deport the one you’re with.

• Why I Support Obama. - ‘Nuff said.

• GOP Justification for State-Sanctioned Rape in Virginia - The Virginia GOP wants to go spelunking in your lady-cave and you have no say in the matter.  Once vaginally penetrated, always vaginally penetrated.  Them’s the rules.

• GOP Cannot Deny War On Women -Bon the Geek draws disturbing parallels between the GOP’s collective mentality towards women, and the mentality of those who commit violence against women.  It’s frightening.

• ESPN Owes Jeremy Lin an Apology [updated] - Protip: Don’t use the word “chink” in any context that includes Asian-Americans.  It’s not that hard.  Seriously.

• Happy Valentine’s Day, Ladies of Virginia! Your GOP Hates You and Your Uteri - asiangrrlMN stabs Virginia in the vagina with her rusty pitchfork™.  Why?  Because Virginia is waging war on your vagina! (Which is weird since you can’t spell “Virginia” without “vagina.”  Or something.)

• Birth control mandate a First Amendment violation? Not so fast. - Ian Boudreau discusses whether or not the birth control mandate violates the First Amendment. ~SPOILER ALERT!~ It doesn’t.

• GOP Sez: You’re a Slut. I Sez: Maybe So, But Not For You! -asiangrrlMN is calling for a Lysistrata.  Don’t know what that is?  Well, read this post.

• The Obama-Santorum Conspiracy - Nicholas Wilbur explains what’s up with the Santorum surge and concludes that whatever is up with the surge, it’s good news for John McCain Barack Obama.

• Fox and the GOP Want to Wage War on Women? Game. On. - asiangrrlMN explains that Fox News hates women.  She then stabs Fox repeatedly with her rusty pitchfork™.

• Romney’s Anti-Detroit Op-Ed, Translated - roadkillrefugee dissects Mittens’ anti-Detroit op-ed.  In the words of one Hal Sparks, it is breathtaking.***

• Where Are The Republican Women On This? - Zandar wants to know what Republican women think about their party’s assault on their lady-business.  What say you?  Oh, who am I kidding, there are no Republican women reading this blog.

• BONUS: Battle for Choice Heats Up in Alaska - New blogger emokidsloveme brings you some news about the GOP’s attempt to get all up in your Alaskan lady business.  She is now a bona fide Angry Black Lady. And she’s actually a Black Lady.  So basically, this blog is winning at life. ~sparkle~

*** I was on the Hal Sparks show on Saturday.  If you missed it which you probably did because WHITNEY! (~sob~), I should have a podcast link available soon.  RIGHT, HAL!?
