If he could see her shoulders, she deserved it.

It really is truly something that the House wants to deny essential health benefits to women, including prenatal care, while simultaneously worrying themselves over the appropriateness of shoulders and toes. Truly, our elected leaders are complex.

Hang on, there is a lot to process here. Are you saying that buying and selling on the Black Market carries some associated risk? And that sometimes, when criminals get access to your money, they just take it and run?

What really gets me is the camp of Republican senators saying they might not vote for it because it doesn’t go far ENOUGH. Kicking 22 million people off health care, kicking people with disabilities off medicaid, and effectively defunding Planned Parenthood to the best of the government’s ability, is not ENOUGH for…

A brush against the shoulder, anything at this point, can be considered sexual assault and it’s a good thing to be educated about the laws.”

That is certainly true in a lot of cases. But with this repeal of Obamacare, they were quite upfront with saying it was too expensive and had to go. And if they kicked millions of people off health insurance, then hey, it was a win because the government was spending less on people’s insurance and keeping more money…

Sure, but lots of countries have had “enemies.” That hasn’t lead them to pursue campaigns against human rights in their own countries. In Canada, abortion is never on the ballot, because our Supreme Court has declared access to abortion/contraception a fundamental human right, and NO POLITICIAN, regardless of party,…

I don’t understand the American two-party system. How can you have one party in favour of every single thing a liberal democracy stands for: human rights, civil rights, equality and fairness (judicial, social, and regulatory), basic human freedoms, access for all to health and prosperity, safe workplaces,…

You’re assuming the next bill they pass won’t be the indefinite suspension of further elections.

This whole thread is funny to me, because Margaret Atwood actually wrote a short story called “Rape Fantasies,” in which her narrator shamefully confesses to having fantasies about things like, for example, being cornered in a dark alley at night by a handsome stranger who ravishes her despite her protests... the…

It actually DOES exist, just not an app! Back in the 90's, my mother bought her friend a keychain as a joke. The keychain was a small voice recorder, branded as a “memory aid.” The way it worked was, you parked your car, pushed the button on the voice recorder keychain and explained where your car was parked. Then you…

Ok, I know not EVERYTHING should be looked at through the feminazi lens of gender politics.... but no way would he EVER have the stones to do that to a male leader.

Disagree. With all the outcry and public interest in his tax returns, actually obtaining part of one IS news, and it’s certainly not “nothing.” Just because it doesn’t say anything explosive doesn’t mean it’s of no interest. And with the interest generated by the segment, I can’t fault her for giving a quick recap of…

It’s not just Girl Guides. Our school districts as well are calling off trips to the U.S. And it’s not just paranoia or solidarity, we are actually getting stories in our newspapers on a near-daily basis about Canadian citizens denied entry at the border, often just for having an unusual name or “Middle Eastern”…

I doubt it’s the gay issue. I imagine Putin is just threatened by Gaston’s raw masculinity.

I don’t know... I think being against vaccines goes beyond “not caring if they work” or “believing they’re unsafe...” I have an anti-vaxxer “friend” on Facebook, and one day I’ll check in and see a post about it, and her position is “vaccines could be harmful, even though they prevent disease, and it’s possible to…

I support approaching issues as important as childrens’ health and safety with a healthy skepticism and an open mind, but... isn’t MEDICAL SCIENCE the proof here? The problem with conspiracy theories like “vaccines are bad” or “the moon landing was fake” or “the earth is flat,” is that eventually, unless you plan on…

Why does this man continue to find work? BECAUSE PEOPLE KEEP PAYING TO SEE HIS MOVIES! Want him to go away forever? Never give projects that benefit him one dime of your money. Hollywood won’t stop making terrible decisions (hiring bigots, whitewashed casting, etc) until it is no longer profitable for them and not a…

That’s exactly right. I’m mad at journalists who keep taking the bait. And I’m mad at her for being so GOOD at derailing interviews, and I’m mad at us all for falling into her trap, and I’m mad at all the other news sites I’m looking at today that seem to have abandoned the “Trump vs. Nordstrom” feud in favour of this…

Honestly, I am so sick of these stories. Why does the media, including Jez, keep playing right into her hands? She is a despicable human being, yes, but she sure is damn good at her job. The PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES enacts a morally bankrupt and probably unconsititutional Muslim ban that is being used to deport…
