There are days I hate living in Kansas

Such as oh, say, any day I am reminded that I have Sam Brownback for a Senator. :-P
I got one of those form-letter responses from him today. I wrote in about the proposed HHS regulations (for those who didn't see my previous entry/links on this, it's the "doctors/pharmacists/anybody shouldn't be forced to do their jobs, silly!" regulation). And I got a letter back talking about how horrible and wrong and eeeeevil it is that doctors should have to do something they have a moral problem with.
The letter ended with some idiotic 'I hope you stay in contact with me!' Jackass, the only 'contact' I'd ever want to have with you is my hand smacking the back of your head as I call you a misogynist piece of shit.
Combined with things like this, I'm about ready to just sneak into Canada. Or get on a raft over to England. Or start giving certain know-it-all governmental types vasectomies 'for their own good'. After all, knowing that they're most likely breeding and potentially spreading their stupidity offends my delicate moral sensibilities. And that should of course trump all else, including their bodily autonomy.
Oh wait, you mean it doesn't work that way? Because I'm not figuring out a way to use the Bible as justification? And because they're men and therefore full human beings? Damn.
