An article at alternet about comics as journalism

Go read.

Another article from alternet about the American Girls dolls.

I used to want the entire collection growing up. Still kinda do, really.

Help?

Can each of you just leave one comment here? I'm trying to get rid of the page stretching idiot, and their spam-blockers are hampering me. All I want to do is read my guide in peace.

Edit: Gone now. Thanks! *hugs all of youse guys*

And another lovely article by Ann Coulter...

Here.

I wouldn't even give her the dignity of caring, but man does she get on my nerves. Woman she gets on my nerves too!

An article about Ms. Schiavo...

Here.

( Article inside )

How messed up is this that 1. I am on Bush's side in this issue and 2. the Democrats are the ones going on about states rights?

And more "news" from the AFA...

I should stop reading their hateful work, but it pulls me in like a moth to the flame.

Interesting thing about moths. They aren't actually attracted to flames or bug zappers. I mean, they *are*, but only incidentally. They're trying to navigate by the light of the moon... but if another light is stronger, they'll try to navigate by that. Unfortunately, due to the closeness of flames and bug zappers, this causes them to go spirally and eventually plunge to their doom.

And a clip stolen from no_pity

My friend Darkly says that most people are too stupid to get it. I disagree - but then, this is my species, I may be biased. So, who do you think is right?

Oh boy...

I can't even comment on this one. People actually *believe* this?

And then, they wonder why kids leave the faith when they grow up. I don't think it's because of a lack of guilt and fear....

I'm crossposting this without permission, that's why it's locked.

I wouldn't at all, except that I am fairly confident I will get permission.

Anybody in the Tulsa area? Please read.

I have spent an eternity saying this.

Terri Schiavo is not on life support. She does not use a ventilator. I don't know where that story started, but here it ends. She is not hooked up to any machines. She uses a feeding tube. That is not life support. Taking her off the feeding tube will cause her to - slowly - starve or dehydrate.

There is evidence that she reacts to things around her. There is also evidence that her condition would be drastically improved if the money from the settlement had gone towards her treatment instead of her husband's court bills.

So please, base your opinions off of accurate information.

And now, I will let other people talk about being in situations where they were believed dead, and post those links (links I've posted before) about other people who nearly died because "after all, she's not going to recover, might as well pull the plug now" - and at the time, they were conscious.
