It's the hypocrisy of the "family values" set who pretend that as straight Christians they are morally superior to all of us godless liberals that is worthy of mocking. And worse than that, this is the group that by and large want their brand of social morality to be made into law.

My friend recently had a miscarriage in her second trimester. She needed surgery to remove the dead fetus because it wasn't expelled on its own. She got a D&C. Or she could have opted to try to give birth to her very wanted dead baby, which is what I think most pro-life people believe she should have been forced to

I was just talking about this issue with a co-worker the other day. Someone we know had a miscarriage at five months and needed a D&C. Another friend also had a D&C to treat her endometriosis. There are many medical reasons that a woman must be able to get this surgery performed, and if doctors refuse to even learn

Here's a little experiment for you. Google "missing woman" in the news section. See how many hits come up for Ms. Gardner (who is currently the top story) and then start scrolling down to see the names of all the other women who are missing right now. If they manage to get any media attention at all, it's at best

In your second example, a young man took a nude photo of his girlfriend and passed it around to DOZENS of people in revenge after they broke up. I'm supposed to sympathize with him for that???

Not only that, but confirmation bias is in stark relief on those comment threads. I see it in my local news website all the time. If the crime was committed by a white person, there are perhaps two or three comments. If the same type of crime is committed by a black person, there are 300 comments, and most of them

The other issue about that point in the marriage vow is that it cites a study that was conducted in the late 19th century, AFTER slavery was abolished. So it was a lie upon a lie.

Don't like celibacy? Bang an ugly chick. Problem solved.

Except the judge clearly cites her cancer as a factor in her decision making process:

That's right; only women are entitled assholes.

This woman runs PR for the company and apparently espouses a "guerrilla marketing" attitude toward her job, so I apologize but this story stinks of viral marketing to me.

No, stockpiling explosives and making plans to assassinate government officials, start a war with the National Guard, and overthrow the government makes you a terrorist.

Rizzoli and Isles? How about The Closer?? They've also rescued some great shows from cancellation, like Southland.

I think you've hit the nail on the head. I could see how there are a lot of class issues involved in this disparity.

I know why I'm commitment phobic, and it has nothing to do with my very supportive mother. I was abused by a daycare provider in childhood and my father died suddenly when I was fifteen years old. I not only tend to believe that people will hurt me, but have abandonment issues as well. My mother, on the other hand,

How many times have you read stories about SWAT busting down the wrong door because they're at the wrong house, and completely innocent people getting hurt and/or killed over it? It's really naive to think that the police are never wrong and that only "bad" people get targeted for this kind of thing.

Okay, so we have this ruling and we have the Indiana Supreme Court's recent ruling that citizens do not have the right to defend their homes against an illegal police entrance — that our only option is to take the cops to court, possibly facing arrest and jail time in the meantime, or death if the cops decide to shoot

It's just part of the broader celebrity culture, which in the most general terms, women appear to be more interested in than men. I'm sure part of it is wishing that you could lead the same glamorous life that they appear to be leading, and escape the drudgery of the daily grind. Especially considering that women

Sorry, there's not much spinning to be done here. They talked to 400 Republicans and almost half of them not only disapprove of interracial marriage, which would be one thing, but want it to be ILLEGAL. That is INSANE.
