I am, at this moment, so damn glad I am not represented at the state or national level by the subject of the video below that you're glad of it too. This ... nasty-nice Republican Representative stood up to speak on a hate crimes bill, and announced to the world that Matthew Shepard's death had nothing to do with his sexuality.

What you need to do is donate to her opponent. Time, energy, word of mouth, money, whatever you can spare. I know the Republicans are losing ground in this nation, and their public face as displayed by such ignorant and oblivious liars as this woman is one reason why. But it cannot come soon enough and letting her or her compatriots in the party of "No" continue to spew their bigoted inhumanity and their suavely-polished untruth is unpatriotic, unAmerican, and dishonorable.

If we don't speak up they think we approve.
