A bright spot in Oklahoma: Sen. Judy Eason McIntyre, of Tulsa, protests anti-abortion bill w/F-word!
Of course, the fact that approximately 1,000 people protested at the Capitol yesterday against personhood wasn't the story--it was that a POLITICIAN used the F-word (GASP)!!!

Sen. Judy Eason McIntyre held up a sign at the protest Tuesday that said “If I wanted the government in my womb I'd f --- a senator.”
“When I saw that sign out of all of those signs, I was like, I've got to have a picture of it,” said McIntyre, D-Tulsa. “I thought if my 87-year-old mother sees this, I'm going to get hell this weekend, but it was too late.”

The story's had almost 1,000 comments, I wouldn't dare read them. Apparently the paper got so much flack it's taken the photo down, but I did get a version this morning:
Thank you, Senator Judy!!!
