Bait and Switch Crisis Pregnancy Centers

Bait and Switch Crisis Pregnancy Centers

Ask your representative to support H.R.5052 Stop Deceptive Advertising for Women’s Services Act which requires the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to: (1) promulgate rules prohibiting persons from advertising with the intent to deceptively create the impression that such persons provide abortion services; and (2) enforce violations of such rules as unfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce.

Stem Cell Funds Veto – Who Benefits?

Bush finally decided to veto something after six years: Stem cell research – a bill that even this Congress passed in both Houses. “Now that’s something to save yer virgin veto for! All the people who might benefit from the research – well, they don’t matter so much.

Voted in DeKalb Country in the Georgia primary today. I’d like to wave good bye to Gov. “Let’s castrate the dogs under the Confederate flag” Perdue. I felt tainted just touching the Diebold machine. There were only 4 other people voting, one of them my hubby, in a room with about 20 machines.

Propaganda Hunting

Propaganda Hunting

Thanks to Lucas for pointing me to NewsHounds.org. The logo, heh heh. It’s comparable to Media Matters, only a little less researched, more opinion-based, perhaps a little bit more hip, a bit less careful. A younger audience? Don’t wanna be an American idiot. One nation controlled by the media. Information age of hysteria. It’s calling out to idiot America. – American Idiot, Green Day
