The movie “Pink Ribbons“, which explores breast cancer fundraising by groups like Susan G Komen, is being released tomorrow. Komen’s decision to cut funding to Planned Parenthood has been in the works for some time now; one top Komen official quit over it in December. As Dave suggests, the Komen

#Occupy The Cure
I’ve either got the flu or I’m nauseated by the Susan G. Komen/Planned Parenthood fiasco. I’ll take Door #2, SGK/PP, for $200 — the donation that will now go fucking directly to Planned Parenthood since Komen made the ill-advisedly cruel decision to aquiesce to the ideological pressure of fetus fetishists

I am the daughter of a breast cancer survivor. And I have just sworn never again to buy another “Pink for the Cure” (or whatever they call it) thing. Not that I don’t love my pink long-sleeved Columbia t-shirt, or my pink lipsticks (all 11 of ‘em), but this whole

For Brad Trost and Maurice Vellacott, two MPs who are disgrace to Saskatchewan, Politics’n’Poetry gives you this:

Frankly, it didn’t surprise me a bit that SUZANNE would be All In with the idea of publishing a database of personal information and photos of gynecologists and other reproductive health professionals whose services include — but are not limited to — abortion. How awesome she must imagine it would
Continue reading“Counselling”, anti-choice style
On what deranged planet would this be considered “counselling”?: Newsflash, fetus fetishists: the fence is there for a reason, and it’s not so your fat asses can get some exercise running up and down ladders. (via RealtinConnor on Twit)

Via The New Civil Rights Movement, I found out a sad thing today. The young man who made this “It Gets Better” video… …has taken his own life. Eric James Borges, who took the time to remind bullied queer kids that life will get better, and whose own life was

When you’ve lost the National Post, it’s Game Over: Anyone paying attention over the past few weeks would have spotted the most unlikely of Canadian events: a debate over abortion. […] Mr. Woodworth’s quixotic campaign — and the P.E.I. activists’ failed attempts — prove that a broad debate in Canada
Continue readingDear Mississippi…
Sorry to resort to pictures, but it seems that an awful lot of anti-choicers have difficulty reading. Amazing how many of these unsentient adults there are in Mississippi Goddamn, and how many of them take seriously the notion that a just-fertilized egg is a fully formed human being, capable of everything already and yet still […]

Ewwwwwww: Some adults are appalled that children in Loganville got dolls of 12-week-old fetuses with their Halloween candy, Channel 2 Action News reports. […] Joshua Edmonds, who told Channel 2 Action News he is a senior minister of the Christian soc…

Christ, what is it with the Religious Reich? Bad enough that they had to steal all our Old Religion holidays out from under us and try to turn them into things they are not. Now they’re relying on them as a source of crapaganda, with heavy overtones of gore-porn: PASADENA, TX (KTRK) — A local […]

Everyone Else: Who’s there? Fetus Fetishists: We Want the Debate! Everyone Else: I said, Who’s there? Fetus Fetishists: We Want the Debate!! Everyone Else: Hello?? Bueller??

Someone’s cranky about the Ontario elxn
Why so bitter?: Voting Conservative is “Gutter Morality!??” Tsk. So you got a little spanking on Election Day… okay, you were beaten like a gong. No, make that ‘beaten like a Cinco de Mayo pinata’. But look on the bright side: one less vote would have put you in the ’beaten like a crack baby in […]

…be it women: …or children: Yes, that’s right…human beings are now objects to be “won” in stupid radio contests. Incidentally, both these contests are being held by Canadian radio stations. Isn’t there some kind of CRTC legislation against this kind of audience-grabbing stunt? Or human-rights legislation? Or, in the case of the Russian male-order bride […]

Well, for starters, there is NO SUCH THING as a “crisis” pregnancy. That word is utterly meaningless. And then there’s the fact that all this weasel-verbiage exists for a reason: to bamboozle unwary women (and girls!) into handing their decision-making powers to someone else…someone who is feeding them complete and utter bullshit: A survey of […]

…and fern hill was kicking ass all over the place! W00t! DJ has the links that tell the entire tawdry tale. And while we’re giving props to those who deserve, how about an honourary scoop of freshly-minted dogpoop to the Toronto Star, supposedly Canada’s Flaming Liberal Newspaper of Record, for refusing to publish even a Letter […]
