Apparently Utah isn't doing so well when it comes to reproductive and gay rights. Big surprise?
But then, it depends on which side of the argument you're on. A ranking of 43 out of 50 is dismal to those of us who believe in the rights an individual should have to choose who they marry and when they have children.
But, Gayle Ruzicka is thrilled. Well, also a little disappointed that Utah wasn't rated dead last. That's LAST Gayle, not first.
It baffles me that people are fighting so hard to restrict the rights and freedoms each American should enjoy. It baffles me that they're fighting to restrict sex education so they can leave a legacy of ignorance, unwanted pregnancies and disease. It baffles me that they think a sixteen-year-old girl should get her father's permission to abort a child that may very well be his own.
But then, when has Utah not baffled me?

This place is completely baffling indeed...
Great blog, by the way. "long-time listener, first-time caller."
Keep it up.
I submit for your perusal, not necessarily for your acceptance of me, or to prove that I can be tolerant, but for your entertainment... :)
My thoughts on the whole Marraige Ammendment, GLBT issues in Utah, Religious scare tactics, Larry H Miller, Chris Buttars, etc...:
