Regardless of where you stand on the issue of women's reproductive rights, I think this poster says quite a bit about the state of politics at the moment.  All of these talking heads, regardless of party affiliation, spew nonsense about a given issue because they've assumed a party line.  However, no mention is made of and no consideration given to how all of these issues interact; there is zero reconciliation of, for example, protecting the rights of an unborn child and rescinding those same rights once the child announces he or she is gay.  The absurdity of various aspects of the political system is absolutely infuriating: if you aren't angry about what is happening in each and every government in this country, you are simply not paying attention.  I am grateful there are everyday people who see these problems and use their now-protected right to speak out on any given issue, again, regardless of their party affiliation or where they stand.
