Whether the legislators have their tax sources replenished or not, the public will feel the effect of any oil recovery and tend to forget the failure of the state republican regime to govern effectively. Then they will resume their tilting against windmills and pass out the largesse to the top of the pyramid. That is our historical behavior.

I keep hoping this session will get people to see just how broken the Oklahoma GOP has become.

Won't happen.  Too much 'stupid' residual still hanging around.

I don’t share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

High Court Tosses Another Oklahoma Abortion Law

http://publicradiotulsa.org/post/high-court-tosses-another-oklahoma-abortion-law

Quote
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The Oklahoma Supreme Court has thrown out another state law that would put new restrictions on abortion providers.

In a unanimous opinion handed down Tuesday, all nine justices agreed that the statute adopted by the Legislature last year "contains different and unrelated purposes" in violation of the Oklahoma constitution's requirement that legislation cover a single subject.

The law encompasses four abortion-related topics: minors and parental consent; tissue preservation; inspection of clinics; and legal liability for abortion providers.

The New York-based Center for Reproductive Rights challenged the law and the state's highest court subsequently blocked it from going into effect. The center sued on behalf of Dr. Larry Burns of Norman, who performs nearly half of Oklahoma's abortions.

Oklahoma's attorney general didn't immediately respond to a request for comment early Tuesday.

Money well spent.

The idea of Pruitt running for governor isn’t what is scary.  It’s the idea there are people in this state who would vote for this idiot.

One step further - seeing the amount of support Drumpf gets, Pruitt is a shoe-in.

That was just a bunch of idealistic kids who are known Communists and won't vote because that is an act of support for the bourgeoisie Capitalist Pigs that have ruined everything anyway!  If they did vote, it would be for Stein and never in a state election!!




Lol....!!
