    @Zombie Ms. Skittles: I saw that earlier and was prepared to lay into the SPCA person, but it just seems like an awful mistake. Poor Louie. Oh god I can't think of it too much or I'll just lose it.

    Um, Florida state attorneys? Determining the constitutionality of a statute is *specifically* the job of a judge. You might disagree and you can go ahead and appeal the decision, but the legislature doesn't get the final say on the meaning constitution.

    The blurb about the 16-year-old blind and deaf dog made me flashback to when I was 5 years old and my mom accidently ran over our blind and deaf dog in our driveway. I was in the car when it happened. Yes, it was traumatic.

    The dog had been my fathers, and my father's name is Lou...too many eerie connections!

    I am not really a "dog" person (probably somehow psychologically connected to the aforementioned incident), but this is a sad, sad story.

    "NCSU's Women's Center and other campus advocacy groups were not able to stop a showing of the film based on Tucker Max's book I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell or an appearance by Max taking place tonight on the campus."

    Good. Rather than prevent people from seeing it and hyping it up, go see it yourself and take him to task during the Q&A.

    @Bgirl_Hamster: Sigh, my thoughts exactly. But I would at least like to be armed with the correct information, and Jezebel has done the right thing by putting it out there for us to know. At least I'll be prepared when my mother sends me the link.

    Oh dear. It's up on Fox's site, but under the "Health" section. Clearly the health division and the politics division need to improve their communication skillz.

    @Bgirl_Hamster: I agree with you, but I'm still confused about how that would mean that universal healthcare was bad. I mean, the same number of women would be giving birth no matter the insurance situation, right? Just if it were happening here, more of those women would go bankrupt as a result.

    @Bgirl_Hamster: They'd better have comparison figures for how many women in the US are forced to give birth outside a maternity ward due to lack of health insurance. I'd bet the figures are close.

    It's not these politicians that are the villains, it's the people who vote for them. And as long as people keep voting for them shit like this is going to happen.

    I'm actually pretty sad about this. As a liberal Democrat, I've never liked this guy, but he's charismatic and intellectual and I've always thought he had a pretty good chance to end up president one day. What's sad is that I still think that. A majority of people in this country may support gay rights, but they damn sure don't think about that when they're casting votes for politicians.

    Here in Massachusetts, we have gay marriage and no hurricanes. Are the cold winters supposed to be our punishment? Enquiring minds, Jindal. Bring me up to date on the connection between weather and gayness, please.

    a few weeks back, in an article about Palin, I saw that Jindal is considered to be a competent admin, but it didn't say WHY. (there's a clue right there)


    Louisiana jezebels why do people say this?

    cuz I sorta don't believe it, do I have a case?

    This is my heartfelt plea to the country, and to Megan:


    Please don't say anyone is a 2012 presidential candidate. We haven't even inaugurated the guy who just won.


    Please. In the name of all that is Good, please stop with this nonsense!

    I somewhat believe that he is just being a good republican, building his career up, and that just happens to mess with the lives of several thousand residents in his state. But he is young, and its his career, ya know? Those people will be fine. They can move to Texas!
