Indiana Smoking

[Indiana State Wide Smoking Law].

What happened to all of those Get-Government-out-of-my-life Tea-Baggers that Indiana elected last time? I know,... "but we have to breath the second hand smoke". Well, If a power plant or big factory pollutes the air or water you have breath that. If a bunch of rich people blow up the economy, you have breath the stink left from that. What's the difference?

Government Takeover

of five Indiana schools

[indiana-schools-takeove]

Imagine the outrage at Fox news if this had been in Obama's Chicago... "now the government is taking over our schools" would've be plastered all over Fox for about a week but it's in republican Mitch Daniels state so its OK.

Indiana Planned Parenthood

Some crazy from my home state. via [The Booman Tribune: Indiana Planned Parenthood]

Indiana Republicans have forced the closure of all 28 Planned Parenthood clinics in their state, even though only four of them provided any abortion services. Previously, Planned Parenthood in Indiana earned $1.3 million a year for its work with Medicaid recipients. Those low-income women will now find it much harder to get access to female contraception and basic health care. Many of them will, as a result of this hostility from Indiana Republicans, experience an unplanned pregnancy and will seek out abortions, or they will have less access to health care during their pregnancy, resulting in less healthy babies. I know it's hard to get inside the brains of Republicans, but the opposite of planned parenthood is unplanned parenthood. And it is only the latter that causes elective abortions to occur in the first place. No organization prevents more abortions than Planned Parenthood. Nice work, assholes.

And our great leader Mitch Daniels, who wanted the republican presidential candidates to back-off the moral issues and focus on the fiscal issues, signed this into law.
