We should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive & well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate, bier or wein in hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WHOO-HOO, WHAT A RIDE!!!!!!"
THE comments on this article from the Washington Post are a result of this Fotze opinions, policies and actions. Mine-Most of us have an idea how she got her position in this administration so it is surprising she had an allergic reaction considering how much she has already swallowed. mssmith2 posted "If I went to the ER for an allergic reaction "out of an abundance of caution," my insurance wouldn't pay for it.". lamdad posted "Allergy you say? Is that why her lips are grotesquely swollen?".I replied "Ever notice little marco and petie have the same lips? They all got their jobs the same way cause they sure as hell aren't actually qualified.". bababooey84 posted "Good I hope she dies slower and painfully more than the dog and sheep she killed. Feel free to play around with her like they do at CCOT.". I replied "She probably caught something while "inspecting" CCOT, hope she passed it on to El Salvador's pres nayib bukakke.". UPDATE: If rumors she is allergic to sperm are true will there be any reason for NOT MY pres drumpf / trump to keep to keep her around? Stay tuned.....
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi L. Noem was taken to a hospital on Tuesday after suffering an allergic reaction, a department spokesperson told The Washington Post.
Tricia McLaughlin, an assistant secretary for DHS,said Noem was transported to the hospital by ambulance “out of an abundance of caution” and “is alert and recovering.”
As governor of South Dakota, Noem was a staunch ally of President Donald Trump before joining his administration. She now leads a sprawling agency of more than 260,000 people that is charged with border enforcement, disaster response and other law enforcement responsibilities.
Noem has helmed Trump’s aggressive immigration crackdown in cities, including the ongoing raids in Los Angeles by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. Last week, the secretary vowed that the ICE raids and deportation arrests — a key component of Trump’s immigration agenda — would continue across Los Angeles. Trump has also directed Noem to deploy ICE agents across the nation and “expand efforts to detain and deport” undocumented immigrants in Democratic-run cities, such as Chicago and New York.
No further details about the allergic reaction were provided.
correction
A previous version of this story incorrectly said Noem was the governor of North Dakota. She was the governor of South Dakota.

I admire the moxy of the legislators who introduced these bills in response to the male dominated legislatures attacks on women. My favorite is from IL state Rep Kelly Cassidy D requiring men who want a prescription for viagra to first watch a video about the treatment of priapism. The story on her legislation and the video are followed by the story from Mother Jones....WARNING, THE VIDEO IS EXTREMELY GRAPHIC AND MAY BE DISTURBING TO SOME, VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED!!!!!
Lawmaker: Men Who Want Viagra Should Have To Watch Graphic ‘Side-Effects’ Video
CHICAGO (CBS) — Want a prescription for Viagra? You may have to sit down and watch a horrific video about the drug’s possible side effects.
A battle over that idea is brewing in the Illinois state capital. It’s linked to a controversial anti-abortion bill, CBS 2’s Mike Parker reports.
If an Illinois lawmaker gets her way, men seeking Viagra prescriptions for erectile dysfunction, will be required to watch a graphic video first.
“They need to see a visual depiction of the treatment for the most common side effect to Viagra use, which is priapism, and it’s not a pretty procedure to watch,” state Rep. Kelly Cassidy, a Chicago Democrat, says.
Cassidy says she came up with the idea because of another Springfield proposal that would require physicians, before any abortion, to offer to perform an ultrasound examination and allow the patient to view it if she chooses.
That measure came from another Chicago Democrat, State Rep. Joseph Lyons.
“There might be a little fraction of women who might want to see that ultrasound, who might change their minds. If it saves one life in Illinois, I’m for it,” he says.
Cassidy counters: “It is inappropriate to insert the legislature into a medical decision in this way. It just isn’t right.”
Asked if her proposal on Viagra is equally wrong, Cassidy replied, “If we are going to do this, we need to do it in a way that is applied equally.”
Lyons says Cassidy is merely coming up with “an unfriendly amendment to cause confusion and a diversion.”
Cassidy says she is tired of politicians deciding that “women are incapable of making their own decisions.” PRIAPISM TREATMENT VIDEO (EXTREMELY GRAPHIC)
As Republican lawmakers have pushed ever more intrusive and expansive uterus-related legislation, some of their colleagues across the aisle have fired back with intentionally and equally ridiculous counterproposals. From mandatory rectal exams for guys seeking Viagra to prohibitions on sperm-stifling vasectomies, most of these male-only provisions have, unsurprisingly, flopped. But they've scored big as symbolic gestures, spotlighting the inherent sexism of laws that only regulate lady parts.
Some of the tongue-in-cheek ideas introduced across the country: Delaware: By an 8 to 4 vote, the Wilmington, Delaware, city council recognized the personhood of semen because "each 'egg person' and each 'sperm person' should be deemed equal in the eyes of the government." Virginia: As the state Senate debated requiring transvaginal ultrasounds for women seeking abortions, Sen. Janet Howell proposed mandating rectal exams and cardiac stress tests for men seeking erectile dysfunction meds. Her amendment failed by just two votes. Georgia: Responding to a Georgiahouse bill banning abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, Rep. Yasmin Neal wrote a bill outlawing most vasectomies because they leave "thousands of children…deprived of birth."
Ohio: A bill introduced by state Sen. Nina Turner would compel men to get psychological screenings before getting prescriptions for impotence meds. "We must advocate for the traditional family," Turner said, "and ensure that all men using PDE-5 inhibitors are healthy, stable, and educated about their options—including celibacy as a viable life choice." Illinois: State Rep. Kelly Cassidy proposed requiring men seeking Viagra to watch a video showing the treatment for persistent erections, an occasional side effect of the little blue pill. As she explained, "It's not a pretty procedure to watch." Missouri: Protesting the legislature's vote to reject Obama's contraception coverage mandate, nine female lawmakers cosponsored a bill restricting access to vasectomies except for men risking death or serious bodily harm. "In determining whether a vasectomy is necessary," the bill reads, "no regard shall be made to the desire of a man to father children, his economic situation, his age, the number of children he is currently responsible for, or any danger to his wife or partner in the event a child is conceived." Oklahoma: When a zygote-personhood bill came before the state Senate, Sen. Constance Johnson penned an amendmentdeclaring that ejaculating anywhere outside a woman's vagina constitutes "an action against an unborn child." Bonus: Johnson also suggested that any man who impregnates a woman without her permission should pay a $25,000 fine, support the child until age 21, and get a vasectomy, "in the spirit of shared responsibility." In response to the same bill, state Sen. Jim Wilson proposed an amendment requiring the father of an unborn child to be financially responsible for its mother's health care, housing, transportation, and nourishment during pregnancy.
Texas: Contesting a bill mandating sonograms before abortions, Rep. Harold Dutton unsuccessfully offeredthree amendments in a row. The first would have required the state to pay the college tuition of children born to women who decide against an abortion after seeing a required ultrasound image. The second would have subsidized the children's health care costs until age 18. When that failed, he lowered the age to 6. That didn't fly, either.

THIS personhood legislation passed by the Virginia House of Delegates is a disgrace. It is an obscene assault on a woman's choice concerning birth control and on women's health in general. The Virginia Senate must defeat this right-wing extremist attack on women and family planning, but unfortunately with a 20-20 split and a republican Lt Governor it will pass unless enough of us speak out and let our Senators in Richmond know we expect them to vote against it. Click the link to sign Tim Kaine's petition to the VA Senate, and then read my e mail to every Democratic Senator in Richmond suggesting an amendment to the bill.....
"Yes."
That was George Allen's one word answer when he was asked if he supports the personhood legislation that was passed by the Virginia House of Delegates this week and was championed by Delegate Bob Marshall, who is challenging Allen in the GOP primary.
Marshall's bill would grant "personhood" to a human embryo at the moment of conception -- which could ultimately make it illegal to terminate a pregnancy, under any circumstance, and outlaw contraception that prevents the implantation of a fertilized egg. Yesterday George Allen had the same answer -- "Yes" -- when he was asked if he would support federal personhood legislation. This is just another example of George wasting time on divisive issues instead of focusing on what Virginia, and the nation, need -- jobs, economic stability, and a focus on the future. Tim Kaine supports affordable and accessible contraception for all women. Sign the petition tell our State Senators that you do too.
And just in case you think that this isn't a battle over contraception -- Republicans in the House of Delegates rejected an amendment, sponsored by Democrats, which would have ensured that all forms of contraception remain legal.
It doesn't matter if the GOP nominee is Allen or Marshall -- both are willing to place a premium on extreme legislation that could jeopardize access to contraception and women's health.
We don't need their style of politics in the Senate at a time when elected officials should be rolling up their sleeves and getting to work finding the right balance of budget cuts and investments in programs like early childhood education, workforce development, and infrastructure. Sign the petition today. Tell the State Senate that you and Tim Kaine support affordable and accessible contraception for all women.

Is there a Senator in Richmond brave enough to offer an amendment to the "personhood" legislation like Oklahoma state Senator Constance Johnson did? I hope so......just to slam home to the public just how obscene this intrusion into the personal lives of women really is.
Thank you,

Constance Johnson, a bold senator of Oklahoma, reached her breaking point concerning “Personhood” bills and attempted to amend the “Personhood” Bill SB 1433 by adding her own clause to the bill. Her clause read:
However, any action in which a man ejaculates or otherwise deposits semen anywhere but in a woman's vagina shall be interpreted and construed as an action against an unborn child.
She stated, in an article she wrote for the U.K. Guardian, that she is increasing offended by these “Personhood” bills, which focus mainly on the women and female reproduction. She and another senator in Oklahoma are increasingly frustrated by the ridiculousness of these bills and their focus on the woman’s part in reproduction.
With Oklahoma's new, never-before-experienced Republican majority, we are seeing enactment of more and more measures that adversely affect women and their rights to access safe medical procedures when making reproductive healthcare decisions.
The Personhood bill would potentially allow governmental intrusion into families' personal lives by policing what happens to a woman's eggs without any similar thought to what happens to a man's sperm.
With her addition to the amendment, she seeks to show the absurdity in these bills concerning women. With this current bill proposed in Oklahoma’s senate, women face criminal charges if their pregnancy ends in a miscarriage and in her opinion, fertilization of eggs outside the womb could violate the proposed personhood statute, therefore they should include a clause concerning men and their sperm, but only to show how absurd the bill is.
She stated she also seeks to draw humourous attention the hypocrisy, inconsistency, and the intrusion of privacy of the Republican proposal. Johnson feels it is more important that we focus on health care, jobs, and education, rather than reproduction solely on the woman’s part.
According to Jezebel website, this bill seeks to call fertilized eggs “persons” before they implant to the woman’s uterus.
The bill sought to define human life as beginning at the moment of conception, before it’s even implanted in the womb, and offers full legal protection to those tiny multicelled lumps. In the words of the bill, “the unborn child at every stage of development (has) all the rights, privileges, and immunities available to other persons, citizens, and residents of this state.”
Johnson’s clause, as Jezebel pointed out, would mean that male masturbation, and anywhere else a man can think to place his sperm, other than the vagina, would violate this amendment.
