Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

Republicans do not trust women.

This really is a full service blog.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

I really should read my own blog.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

An Even Better Use Of Your Time

Leadership in the House is doing a whip count for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act RIGHT NOW. The same blogger has more here about the bill and the current state of play.

Your calls do the most good at tipping moments like this, and ENDA is an easy issue. The bill is good. Phone your Representative and tell him or her to not be a complete douche and vote YES on ENDA.

If you have a Republican Rep, phone and vent your spleen about whatever you want. Trust me, it feels great.

    Thanks for posting about this Tim.

    Couple thoughts for anyone who’s calling–

    1. This is one of the issues it really is probably worth calling Republicans on; it’s believed that some of those votes are actually gettable on this bill (though I don’t know if they’ll be relevant to a Democratic Party internal whip count).

    2. It’s not entirely clear if some of the on-the-fence reps are going to cause trouble about the transgender protections in ENDA, like happened in 2007. Even if your rep is a supporter specifically mentioning that you support “gender identity protections” when you call will probably actually make a difference to the rep’s office.
