Little feet, in little white shoes, and it was just so cute. Then this tragedy happened. Suddenly, I saw those little shoes and thought about my daughter, and it all fell into place. I remembered 9/11. I remembered Aurora. I remembered every moment where I left for work, kissing my sleeping daughter. It just came out.Nefarious Newthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16265387596697011256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7699336243107587106.post-81728908162837291022012-12-15T02:59:12.029-05:002012-12-15T02:59:12.029-05:00Oh my god.

Your post about rape did not incite the reflexive response that Emily L Hauser's did after the Lara Logan incident, but it come from a different context. <br /><br />Thank you for stating so clearly and without equivocation that the burden of responsibility for <b>rape</b> belongs on the <b>perpetrator</b>.

I hope, too, that the electorate who sat by passively during 2010 will recognize that enabling full Republican control of the US government will surely destroy any hope of restoring a modicum of equity to our society. <br /><br />My fear is that independent and progressive voters may be moved to sit out the election again by their perception that the Obama administration has not delivered what they wanted, exactly as they wanted it.<br /><br />Recent events by the newly empowered Republican majorities in states should be sufficient to prevent another full Republican majority in the legislative branch.
