Women constitute more than half of the population. In 2008, 60% of voters were women. It is estimated that 10 million more women than men will vote in this election. Despite this, women make up only 16% of Congress. Women earn only 70 cents to each dollar men make. Women of color and undocumented women make less than white citizens. Mitt Romney and the Republican Party are determined to overturn Roe V. Wade. Romney has not supported equal pay for women (The Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act). Romney has vowed to defund Planned Parenthood. Romney has vowed to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Romney doesn’t want health care to cover birth control. Romney says same sex marriage should be banned with a Constitutional Amendment.

Silence is consent and vote is voice. Let’s get active. Ensure women the respect, dignity and equality they all deserve!
Women know what they should do.

Seriously? Still selling the whole 70 cents in a dollar line? We already know that it is a myth. We already know that female candidates are equally likely to win when running against a man when they actually enter. All women have to do is actually get involved. Stop selling women short and perpetuating lies.

Health Funding

So we know that the income generated from tobacco taxes is insufficient to pay for all the health costs due to problems caused by smoking, but it does pay for some of it. So when it is finally banned (and it will be in the next 20 years) we’re going to find ourselves in a deeper hole paying for all the long term problems without the taxes. Thanks Smokers.

CNN Unveils All-Kitten Election Night Team
For the past few presidential elections, 24-hour news network CNN has been known for its Election Night technology.  In 2008 the network debuted a studio filled with giant touch screens and contributors beamed in via hologram.
For 2012, CNN is pulling out all the stops.  At a press event this morning in the company’s headquarters Atlanta, GA, the network unveiled its Election Night news team.
Gone are mainstays Wolf Blitzer, John King, Candy Crowley and Anderson Cooper — instead, CNN’s 18-straight hours of November 6 news coverage will be anchored by a team of kittens.
“Some might think it an extremely risky move to rely on a group of rookies for such a huge live news event,” said media gazer Ron Calumet, “but I think this is smart for CNN.  They need something to energize ratings and kittens are really, really popular.”

Regarding the last part of the OP I do recall seeing a study many moons ago, in a journal back when things didn’t automatically go online, that linked the spike in white male suicides to two factors, the first being the death of their spouse and the second being the lack of social confidants to reduce their levels of stress (though not naming the causes of that stress). I know it is rather useless without a link to the study but it might provide thought for further research by those so inclined.
