Let's get him where it hurts.....his bank account!

I can't stand Rush Limbaugh. I think he's nothing more than an arrogant fat ass who somehow got lucky and miraculously developed a loyal lemming-like following.
But this time he's gone too far!

Let's make it known to the advertisers that we will not tolerate such ignorant abuse of our First Amendment rights where a media personality can attack a woman in such a vile manner. It's truly sad that we Boomer women, who thought that the issues of birth control and women's rights were resolved almost 50 years ago, once again have to face the fact that the moral majority want to regain control of our bodies.

All Boomer Babes know exactly what I'm talking about........younger women just don't realize that little by little our society is trying to return us to back alley abortions and attacking birth control is just the start. It makes no sense that most insurance companies will pay for a Viagra prescription, but don't have to cover birth control.

Just like me, I'm sure you've reached your saturation point on the media coverage of the "Rush incident", but please take just a few minutes to sign the petition.

My Right!


We're all entitled to our opinion and I definitely have mine about abortion rights. Now, you might ask why I, a Boomer, should be concerned when I definitely can't have kids.

It's because I'm mad and so tired of this issue popping up every few years when I thought it had been valiantly fought by our generation and settled with the decision in Roe vs. Wade. The Supreme Court issued that decision 36 years ago on January 22, 1973 stating that an abortion is a fundamental right under the Constitution, yet the battle is far from over . See the article about the Rally on Thursday held in Washington: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090122/ap_on_re_us/abortion_anniversary

This basic right needs to be protected for our granddaughters! If not, they will be forced to return to the dark ages of back alleys, coat hangers or trips abroad. After all, if the right to control my own body is again taken away, then what right will be next.

One of my favorite bumper stickers which came out when Bush #41 was President summed up my feelings the best:
BUSH stay out of my bush!
