Sally Kern wants you to stay together for the kids

I was going to write about the Gender and Women's Studies conference at OSU last weekend, but it was canceled due to it requiring ice skates or a dog sled team complete with Sarah-Palin-style moose chili to get there (Roads were icy in case that's not clear!).

Instead I'll post about Kern's latest bullshit legislation:

Scheduled for introduction in the 2010 legislative session by state Rep. Sally Kern, R-Oklahoma City, House Bill 2279 would restrict the "use of incompatibility as a ground for divorce" in Oklahoma.

The bill would not allow for divorce on the basis of incompatibility if:

* There are living minor children of the marriage
* The parties have been married 10 years or longer
* Either party files a written objection to the granting of a divorce

Pissed? She's up for re-election in 2010. Donate to her opponent or if you live in HD 84, VOTE! Brittany Novotny is, as Pearl said, the antithesis to Sally Kern.
