There are many ridiculous politicians that plague “the other Washington” and “mom in tennis shoes”, Patty Murray is one of them.

A Senator for over 30 years who has lobbied for all that is liberal and “good” in the Evergreen State is proposing more regulation and legislation (read: more useless spending) on crash test dummies that are “women”.

Today, U.S. Senators Patty Murray (D-WA), Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, and Deb Fischer (R-NE) introduced legislation to improve passenger vehicle safety by requiring the use of the most advanced testing devices available — including a female crash test dummy. The She Develops Regulations In Vehicle Equality and Safety (She DRIVES) Act would enhance passenger vehicle safety by updating U.S. crashworthiness testing procedures.”-Patty Murray

First off, if anyone-male, female, he, she, they/them-whatever-is in a high-impact crash, they’re going to get hurt. But Ms. Murray seems to think throwing some money at this is going to make a difference somehow.

Women make up more than half the population so it’s ridiculous that we are still doing crash tests with male dummies that can’t give us accurate information about how women would fare in the event of a dangerous car crash. This is just one example of how the default male bias has real and deadly consequences—women are much more likely than men to get seriously injured and die in car crashes, in part because vehicle safety features just haven’t been designed for them. I’ve been pushing NHTSA to create parity in the crash test program for a long time and this bill would finally fix the problem—this is just common sense and it’s time to get it done.” -Patty Murray

No, you’re ridiculous, Patty, but I digress. Ms. Murray is also “fighting the fight” to federalize menopause for us ladies with more government. No thanks, Ms. Murray. I’ll suffer through the mood swings, hot flashes and the 10 extra pounds that will not freaking go away. They all actually make for some epic rants on this blog. Most of us Gen X-ers who are now going through this hell do not feel “ignored” or “discounted” or “pushed aside” because we’re going through this. Does it suck? You bet. But most of us are on-board with Patty Murray and our “leaders” not taking any more out of the hide of Americans for something called “federal legislation” that we know will not help us menopausal women at all.

Back to the crash test dummies. Ms. Murray, who is seemingly okay with men using the women’s bathroom and boys playing on the girls’ team because gender is a “social construct” or something, is actually admitting that there is a difference between a man and a woman and it did not take long for the masses to pick up on this:

What is a woman, Tennis Shoes?

Good question. Patty stands with parents and confused kids who want to change their gender. She says “trans kids should play on their sports teams”. She works hard and wants what’s best for them. GASP! Texas can’t happen in Washington State. She wants what is best for your kids, alright. She advocated for the train wreck of school closures in the state during COVID.

In all seriousness, though, this is what Murray wants to spend federal dollars on? A crash test dummy with boobs?

Surely you could have just added an ill fitting dress and lipstick and called it good?

After all, THAT sometimes is all it takes to “identify” as a woman these days.

Physics is now sexist

It may be time to change up the curriculum at U-Dub, don’t you think? In truth, there are many other pertinent issues plaguing the state of Washington and other states in our nation. What says Patty about the overwhelming open use of deadly drugs like fentanyl in the city of Seattle? (You may have to fast forward a bit to get to the answer but the answer will prove her 30+ years of-AHEM-utility as a “Senator”):

Useless.

You see, it’s the community‘s job (not hers, she “works” hard enough) to make sure homeless, drug-addled, sick people are not hanging out in their neighborhoods and getting the “help” they need. “Housing first”, she says. “Coming off addiction “doesn’t happen overnight”, she says. That’s why we need to give them clean needles to “ween” them off of whatever their chosen poison is.

It’s all about priorities here. How many taxpayer dollars can be wasted on this ridiculousness by Patty “Tennis Shoes” Murray? Hold my Starbucks, I think I’m having a hot flash.
