ICYMI: Across the Desk - S6:E2 (OK U.S. House Reps Vote 'No' On 2 Important Bills)

Two bipartisan bills passed the U.S. House of Representatives last week. One respects the marriage of citizens who marry those they love. Be it interracial, homosexual, or even interfaith. And another that protects the right for adult, tax paying, free American citizens to access birth control, including information on birth control. Well, the Oklahoma House delegation all voted 'NO' on these bills... But there is good news in all of this, as these two bipartisan bills PASSED the House and are likely to pass the Senate and be signed into law... Protecting marriage and contraception for all American citizens....

Well, the Oklahoma House delegation all voted 'NO' on these bills... And when there are only 47 nay votes out of near 220, that tells you exactly just how extreme and radical the conservative delegation from Oklahoma really is. But there is good news in all of this, as these two bipartisan bills PASSED the House and are likely to pass the Senate and be signed into law... Protecting marriage and contraception for all American citizens....

Million-Dollar Settlement For Oklahoma County Inmate Death Will Raise Property Taxes

Thank you Clay Bennett, The Greater OKC Chamber and the OK County Jail Trust... The neo-fascism (the merger of commerce and government) experiment that is going to cost the property owners of OK County higher property taxes over the next 3 years.... Way to go Conservatives! You found a way to increase taxes through a major fiasco.... Because I am pretty sure, when the Sheriff was in charge of the jail.. This stuff did not happen...

(This is why a 25% turnout for voting gets you the government you deserve...)
