neadodsI need a neutral-looking icon because some of these links are "YAY!" and others are "Oh good GOD, are you insane? Wait, don't answer, we already know."
The ultimate iPod accessory NOT SAFE FOR WORK!
It's about damn time the liberals took control of lingual framing. Am I the only one who remembers that one of the first things Bush did in office was claim that the laws regulating the amount of arsenic that leeches into the drinking water were "too stringent?"
Meanwhile in Colorado, every sperm is sacred. The Colorado Supreme Court cleared the way Tuesday for an anti-abortion group to collect signatures for a ballot measure that would define a fertilized egg as a person...
If approved by voters, the measure would give fertilized eggs the state constitutional protections of inalienable rights, justice and due process.
How long does it take for a "due process" court case to go through? Compare to length of time it takes an ectopic pregnancy to kill a woman. And who's going to sift through all the rivers of menstrual fluid to see if one of the high percentage of fertilized eggs that naturally don't implant is swimming around in there - and do you charge the mother with "natural" abortion (that being the medical term and all) or merely miscarriage? What are the penalties, and how does one show legal proof? I mean, in Virginia, a proposed law stated that failing to report a miscarriage to the police within 12 hours of it happening netted the miscarrying woman 12 months in jail and a $2,500 fine, but for some odd reason the minute most people saw that in black and white, they got all upset and appalled and voted it out, the anti-baby bastards. (If you scroll down, you'll see that the original moron who proposed the law defends it as being about "delivery of a baby that is dead" and that he would NEVER suggest that a woman who miscarried early should be put through such a wringer... except for the minor point that if it is a "person" from the moment of conception then it is, as the forced-birth crowd insists, as much a "baby" at nine cells' development as it is at nine months' development. So, yes, the original reading of the law as Some Jerkwad Wants to Check Your Used Tampons is pretty much correct.)

Date: 2007-11-16 12:50 am (UTC)BTW, Crystal the filker here. If you're whom you seem to be, we've been running into each other at DC-Baltimore area SF cons for literally decades, so I presumed to friend you. If I'm in error, or you'd rather I didn't, please let me know.

Date: 2007-11-16 11:51 am (UTC)I won't be at Philcon, sorry - I'm doing ChicagoTARDIS and that's it for the year - quite likely "that's it" until next Media*West even.
