Several state legislatures were inspired rather than dissuaded by the contraception debate in Washington, and are considering their own versions of the Blunt Amendment — keeping alive an issue national Republicans thought they were putting to bed. Arizona, New Hampshire, Idaho and Georgia have taken up bills to expand exemptions for contraception coverage. Ohio, Missouri, New Hampshire, Idaho and Wyoming lawmakers are moving symbolic resolutions condemning the administration’s contraception coverage rule.

I know I’m not the first to point this out but, still, I hope that all of the so-called liberals who stayed home in November of 2010 because it just didn’t matter whether (corporatist) Democrats or (corporatist) Republicans were in charge, seriously go Cheney themselves. Then, when they’ve opened their eyes, get off their self-righteous asses and go to the fucking polls this November and vote for the Democrat. Any Democrat.
