WTF……..Politicians Suck
By Dim Fog, on Thu Oct 9, 2008 10:16am PDT
Now, I admit, I have liberal leanings. Quite a few, and before the candidates made their VP picks I was leaning towards Obama, but I wasn't sure I was going to vote. I imagine that there are many reasons to pick a VP, but is there no one out there in...

Hillary says this proposed rule threatens your basic healthcare rights (and could consider birth control as abortion)
By Jessica Ashley, Shine staff, on Fri Sep 19, 2008 5:16pm PDTI've been struggling with how to write about the issue of abortion in this presidential election. And while I've been meditating on how to fairly present the facts of how each candidate has voted on and spoken out about women's health, I almost didn't give enough attention to how abortion is being addressed right now.
I've been focusing so much on the presidential candidates that I almost overlooked a major event in our current administration.
An op-ed piece in the New York Times today pulled me back to the present. Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (66) | Blog

Ask Dr. Kate: Are hormones the only answer?
By Dr. Kate, The Daily Bedpost, on Fri Sep 5, 2008 8:34am PDT
Dr. Kate,
I'm 32 and last year ended a 10-year relationship with a guy, and when I did so, ended a 14-year relationship with hormonal birth control. It's been pretty cool watching and feeling my body seek out its own natural rhythms after all these years of pills and...

Teaching Abstinence Doesn’t Work: Palin’s Preggo Kid.
By Cole Gamble, on Thu Sep 4, 2008 6:48pm PDTThis is a topic that's not gonna get a lot

17-year-old pregnant girl into a political debate just mean. I

Can an abortion blog be a good thing?
By Erin Flaherty, Shine staff, on Thu Aug 28, 2008 8:49am PDT
4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days
When you hear the not so usual phrase "abortion blog," well, no one has a terribly enthusiastic reaction. After all, when it comes to unplanned pregnancy, the mandate is, tell no one, keep your head down, get it over with and march on like a brave soldier. Fact is, young women lacking familial support often find themselves guarding a terrible secret when it comes to making certain decisions regarding their right to chose. Enter the abortion blogger, whose slogan reads, "I'm 23. I'm knocked up. And I don't want to keep it. You can fu*k yourself, Judd Apatow." If that doesn't tell you enough, the name of her site does: "What to expect when you're aborting." Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (215) | Blog
