RE: both links regarding abortion rights.
ANY discussion of the misnamed ‘pro-life’ movement that takes the right-wingers at face value is doomed to fail.
For example – the admitting privilege demand is bogus, as the link points out – should someone at any sort of outpatient surgery center – including a clinic that provides abortions – need immediate medical help for a complication, the safest most effective option is to have a competent and well-run EMT/Medic-1 service, and to transport the patient to a well-run ER.
See? Well-run, well supported public health infrastructure is what promotes health and safety.
As for Douthat, and the discussion of Salatan, again – taking these pricks at face value is a fool’s errand. Any critical reading of the abortion debate has to account for the deeply-seated misogyny and all-around woman-hating and sex-hating that is a fetish among the right-wingers, particularly those leading the assault on women’s health care.

A Louisiana police department is targeting gays by planting undercover cops in public parks to solicit sex from men suspected of being gay, and then arresting them under anti-sodomy law struck down as unconstitutional by SCOTUS years ago, even though the district attorney has refused to charge or prosecute any of the arrested men.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/.....68116.html
Roger Rabbit Commentary: The police chief’s excuse for enforcing a law already held unconstitutional is, “This is a law that is currently on the Louisiana books, and the sheriff is charged with enforcing the laws passed by our Louisiana Legislature. Whether the law is valid is something for the courts to determine, but the sheriff will enforce the laws that are enacted.”
This moron apparently believes if the Louisiana legislature enacts an invalid law, the only way to remove it is if the Louisiana legislature repeals it. This fails the most basic logic test. And he seems to have never heard of Marbury v. Madison.
A federal court injunction looks like the next step here. Then, if the police chief still insists on ignoring the rulings of the Supreme Court of the United States and continues enforcing an invalid state law, he can be held in contempt of court and thrown into his own jail.
If that doesn’t work, the next step after that is to send in the 101st Airborne Division to enforce the orders of American courts.

Also, both the current route via the Tehachapi Pass, and the Coast Route, are owned by Union Pacific, and they have been hostile to expanding Amtrak California services, although according to the current Draft California State Rail Plan, it looks like they might be relenting on the Coast Route, as most through freights are ones diverted from the valley due to congestion.

The Right’s Minimum Wage Bullshit
The standard rightwing response to proposals to raise the minimum wage is that workers aren’t “worth” more than employers feel like paying them (ideally nothing) and if they want to do better they should get more education.
This is complete bullshit. Studies show the average American worker is becoming more educated while employers continue to replace middle-class jobs with low-wage jobs.
They also tell us fast food and other low-wage jobs are “teenage” jobs. That, too, is a load of lying crap.
“Paul Osterman of MIT … notes that the U.S. is a ‘low wage country compared to … other developed economies.’ … [T]he U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says that seven of the 10 fastest growing positions in the coming decade will be low-wage jobs such as store clerks and home health aides. ‘They will pay less and have fewer benefits,’ says NELP’s Owens, ‘but more people who have education and skills will be filling those jobs.’ A 2013 study by the Center for College Affordability and Productivity found that a rising percentage of college-credentialed workers are in occupations that do not require a higher degree. For example, in 1970 only 2% of taxi or limo drivers had college educations. That increased to more than 15% in 2010. The percentage of firefighters with college backgrounds rose from 2% to 18% in the same period, and salesmen from 5% to 24%, according to the study. ‘This was a stunning set of data,’ says Owens, ‘to show the difference between the skills and the quality of jobs this country is offering.'”
http://management.fortune.cnn......ce=cnn_bin
Roger Rabbit Commentary: The problem is employers, not workers. Workers are holding up their end. They’re working hard despite shitty pay and working conditions, and going to school and getting more education and job skills despite lack of opportunities in the economy. There’s no excuse for any employer to be paying these people the current federal minimum wage, none whatsoever, and people who oppose raising the minimum wage to a still-modest $10 an hour are nothing but shameless exploiters lining their own pockets from the hard work of others. Shame on them.

Dori Monson has been going into spasms over the prospect that voters would get to decide if some SeaTac workers would get the minimum wage raised to $15 per hour.
He says that workers with college degrees don’t make that much, so why shoud they? But pulling out an example, he has a Quiznos restaurant worker (fast food) complaining about how his business would suffer.
Somehow, I don’t think those with college degrees make up his workforce.
Notice the class warfare on display here. Monson presumably makes a good living from his radio show, sports announcing, auction gigs, etc. But he’s trying to get people who make less than $15 per hour to fight against those who might get ahead under the proposal.
No Time for Fascists spews:
FYI.
Cheapest rents in SeaTac start at ~800.
$15 an hour is $30,000 per year. Assuming a 1/3 for taxes that leaves 640 for food, gas, medical, per month.
$10 an hour is only $20,000, and with that rent leaves $160 for everything else, or about $5 a day.
You better be single and healthy.
I cannot imagine what this must be like for single parents. Maybe Dori would like them to abandon their kids into the state system and make their bills the tax payer’s responsibility?

The military establishment can’t tolerate that. Manning will get an initial sentence of life, and after a while, it will be quietly reduced to 25 years and then, after a while longer, to time served. Unless he commits suicide. Servicemen who have been branded “traitors” by military courts don’t have a comfortable time in military prisons.

Time again to ask those pertinent questions… Won’t answer the simple questions posed earlier. So let’s ask them again… Time to step up continually unemployed fool!
1) Didn’t mamma teach you anything?
2) Why are you not working and providing like most men for their families?
3) Aren’t you a man? With your avatar it seems you aren’t a man, playing with “dolls”!
4) Why is Mrs SEIU the bread winner while you lounge away everyday on HA?
5) Does the skirt fit so well you love it?
Will the continually unemployed idiot “man up” and explain his unemployed position. Why does he hide behind left wrong links all day on HA? Why does he lounge at home on HA all day while Mrs SEIU slaves hard each day bring home da bread to keep electricity running for his fetid commentaries?
So sad so sad a sack of horse manure. Sux to be you.

@84 I don’t need a job. I live off the land. My days of being an underpaid, overworked, and mistreated worker are over. Glad you’re still on the job, though, pud. Somebody’s gotta suffer so I can prosper.

A new poll shows Sarah Palin remains popular with GOP primary voters in Alaska, but would lose badly to Democratic senator Mark Begich, and half of Alaska’s general-election voters don’t even consider her an Alaskan anymore.
