10. I am shaking I am so infuriated. Just called

Feb 2012

both of my Senators, and scumbag Toomey is a cosponsor, plus my Rep in the House,
and let them know how I feel and every woman I know feels, and that we are ready
to attack in return and will be awaiting their vote.

The calls only inflamed my anger, so I called Blunt's office too, where the person answering
the phone was not trained to first get your name and address. I asked when he is up for
re-election, and then promised to fund his rival no matter who they are. I told her that
he has no right to take away my rights to choose my own health care, and force me to live
by the religious tenets of my employer.

On edit: I also told each of them that my great-great grandmother and great-grandmother both
died in childbirth, after 9 and 16 births each, their uteruses just exploded, and my family is still
feeling the ramifications of the lives of their orphaned children generations later...all because
contraception was not available in those days.
