I'm not too hot on the age snarking. Not a good look for a jezzie.

Maybe you are right, but in that case why aren't you shouting for an end to the gender-based combat exclusion. Again, let's focus on our government before we get too worked up about private clubs

I can't get too mad about Augusta. It's a men-only club. It is possible that its members join because they want to be in a club with only men. It would be a different club if they admitted women. Men are allowed to form men-only clubs, just as women can form women-only clubs. If anything, criticism might be more…

Good for you. We'd all be richer and healthier without all the expensive junk pushed on us to "enhance" health and lifestyle.

And Proactiv heals all sell-outs.

I would guess that on a per person basis, extremely large families are less environmentally destructive than small families.

Well, Amy didn't seem to be 100% on top of things in her final years. She died intestate. Perhaps she would have wanted Blake to take from her estate despite the fact that she didn't get around to including him in an estate plan. And honoring that sort of wish might make the fact that she is now dead relevant. It's…

Even though he was somewhat outside of the mainstream, he was truly one of the most influential American musicians ever. RIP.

And make giant strides toward recovery...

My understanding is that using birth control is considered a moral wrong. If something is morally wrong, obviously, it is wrong for Catholics and non-Catholics alike. It's not some special rule for Catholics.

It's rare to see a starred commenter on Jezebel make such classically conservative comments (e.g. about the dangers the government poses to the citizenry, etc). I would wager I am a good way to the left of you, but I commend you for contributing to the discourse here so effectively.

So Pena's lawyer should have intentionally refrained from making an effective argument?

It's not all about the punishment. Finding out the truth and publicly denouncing the criminal for the wrongful acts are valuable ends.

Maybe there was circumstantial or physical evidence in support of the other charges, but not in support of the rape charge. The prosecution has to meet a high burden of proof on each charge and we can't just assume that it met that burden with the complaining witness' testimony alone.

I'm not commenting to disagree with you per se, but I'm not sure what you are trying to say. Why does the distinction indicate a problem with our collective thinking?

So I take it you disagree with existing decisional law interpreting the 1st Amendment? How would you order things to get us in line with the true spirit of the Constitution or your vision of separation of church and state?

Do tampons containers state an expiration date or directions for tampon storage (pre-usage tampon storage, I mean)?

While the bill was undoubtedly replete with problems, this post seems to cast it in the worst light possible. Was the purpose of the bill really to let employers spy on employees? It seems like a measure meant to accommodate employees who need birth control of medical reasons without compromising the religious freedom…

Let me let you in on a secret: it's called the PHONEBOOK. They could just phone-book "internet access."

How would you all feel about the mother feeding the placenta to the infant?
