We are living in 'interesting' times.
   There is SO much going on as the conservatives try to kill unions, give corporations free rein, cut programs for the poor, restrict women's rights regarding abortion, establish Fundamentalist Christianity as 'the' religion, control the internet, change the very nature of the Supreme Court, make registering to vote harder in order to reduce the numbers of young voters likely to vote Democratic, allow unrestricted guns sales, block laws on environmental issues, allow government access to private email......etc., etc.

It is a daunting task to even COMMENT on any of these issues with any clarity. I see several issues every day that *I* wish to write a couple hours on. Even finding relevant commentary thru Google and linking appropriate articles can take astounding amounts of time.

I try to respond to as much as I can stomach and point out bad reasoning that I have the knowledge to outline...but after awhile, it feels like I AM Sisyphus!

Right now, abortion is a 'hot button'...but so is union busting and attacks on Medicare and Social Security.

Here is the dilemma: It takes many times longer to refute erroneous claims and bad reasoning than it does for the evil & ignorant to make them!
It even takes longer to compose THIS reply than I had planned on spending here this morning...and because I am sort of hurrying, I am not really happy with how I worded it all or how well I responded to the exact point of the original post...for which I apologize.
