But here’s the thing about rights. They’re not actually supposed to be voted on. That’s why they’re called rights. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States.

Tonight Rachel Maddow discussed a disgusting & outrageous website, abortiondocs.org, that is apart of the pro life organization Operation Rescue. Abortiondocs.org lists the names of abortion doctors and clinics along with their pictures, address, phone numbers and a google map of their location. (They also use the term “America’s Abortion Cartel”,ughhh) The site claims to denounce the use of violence against abortion providers but as Maddow points out, this website is an updated and mass database version of the the earlier wanted posters that helped anti abortion terrorists murder doctors. Good for the Feminist Majority Foundation for contacting the FBI and the Dept. of Justice to make sure they are aware of this website.
Rachel Maddow, I adore you and your great coverage of abortion and women’s rights.
::applause:: You go girl!

AIDS activists calling for Obama to keep his promise to stand strong in the fight against aids and improving access to life-saving medications. Check out the video clip. Protesters gathered outside a fundraiser where they were charging $50,000/person.
That’s Act-Up Philly, AMSA (American Medical Student Association, that’s us!), Africa Action, and a whole lot of other organizations marching in solidarity for a good cause.

Rachel Maddow on Republican hypocrisy
For some reason I just don’t love MSNBC because a part of me feels like it’s just a left-handed FoxNews (without pushing actual agendas). While I agree with what they say most of the time, I’d feel like a hypocrite myself if I acted like it wasn’t generally doing the same thing (sort of) as FN.
That said… YEEEHAW! You go Maddow!
The main difference between what MSNBC does and what FOX News does is this:
MSNBC relies on facts, and issues apologies and/or retractions when they’re shown to be in error.
FOX News makes up facts, and makes up different ones to cover for when they’re called out.
Is MSNBC biased? Of course. But they use truth & facts to back them up, especially Ms. Maddow here.
As much as it pains me to say so, I will watch Fox News every once in a while. It definitely helps to see how unprofessional news organizations can be sometimes as a comparison. That’s not to say that I’ll watch it regularly. But when Jon Stewart was on Bill O’Reilly, heck, it was awesome.
