While I would love for this to be true, I have to question the sourcing. I mean, if this is an online poll, you are immediately restricted to the individual demographics that frequent those sites. And frankly, I regard Vanity Fair as a somewhat artsy publication that more liberal minded individuals would read. Could 60…

@Antennapedia: Incredibly late reply, but I have to interject re: Planned Parenthood's "sliding scale". It's based off income, and at the most, you'd get a $50 reduction in service, and that's if you're DIRT poor, as in, under $18k annually.

Although I am firmly in team pie's corner (rhubarb 4eva!), I am quietly hoping for an early upset of german chocolate by the fun-loving, fun-promoting, funny-looking, funfetti.

What about the significance behindNo turkey unless it's a club sandwich?

@tinpantithesis: Yes!

Actually what I see is Barbie/asos using multiple head molds together, which I find kind of cool. True, the bodies are the same, but I love seeing the different molds (which Barbie uses internationally). I wish we had more of them in the States.

@CrimsonVoid: Tasha! I completely forgot. It's funny, because I remember her so much more from Yesterday's Enterprise and as Sela than from when she was actually on the Enterprise in a non-parallel universe. And talk about strong women. Sela could mess you UP.

WARNING: STAR TREK GEEKOUT COMMENCES:I get how some might be put off by the duty "skants" from TOS and the first season of TNG. But I would HARDLY say that the female officer's clothing was "alienating." Uhura was yes, a communications officer, but the fact that a woman held rank period on that ship was groundbreaking…

@femme-bot: That's what I hate about the "curvy" discussion. Anyone can have curves, regardless of their size. To me, "curvy" means more of an hourglass shape.

@OneBigPear: Ideally, but when we serve kids their daily caloric intake in the lunch line alone, it makes it that much harder for healthy habits to actually work.

@CherriSpryte: Encore is generally a fairly small department with limited inventory. Only about half of their inventory is carried in other departments (of course, this may be different at flagship stores).

@nessalicious: That's why I qualified their idea of "encore" is as in "more!" as opposed to "extra helpings".

@Acefreakly: From my understanding, it's coded for "more", as in "more to love", which while better, could be patronizing in some form.

Well, they DO call their plus-sized department "Encore", after all.

@MissConductPDX: Mine is the same. Our office policy also has HORRIBLE network coverage for any type of medical visits, so I imagine the mental health list of "approved" therapists in network is probably about three names long.

the kids who can get treatment at all often get meds with no therapy, and little access to the kind of sustained medical attention that could really help them.

@TheFormerJuneBronson: I felt like on the first time someone pushed by me inthe North End, screaming "out of tha way, aysshole!"

@labeled: CRAZY AUNT KANYE: I honestly think the vitriol is so excessive because a LOT of people looked up to John Edwards. He was one of the only high profile politicians who dedicated himself to ending poverty, and that gathered a lot of respect. I think to a certain degree people are projecting his failures onto…

People make mistakes. People try to rationalize their mistakes. Oftentimes, people lack the introspective thought process and critical thinking skills to evaluate their mistakes. They also are so desperate to tell "their side of the story"—even though the public has basically made up its mind and said "we don't WANT…
