Colbert Takes On Siri

Dec 1st, 2011

By now, you have likely heard that the very popular iPhone app, Siri, seems to have some some interesting social engineering woven into its code. Well, Stephen Colbert has given it the treatment, so to speak...

Down The Rabbit Hole With The GOP, cont...

Oct 30th, 2011
by F. Grey Parker

The election might be a full year away, but the Republican field's long-shot contenders are already fighting to claim the title of "most insane" in order to suck the last gobs of cash they can from a spittle-dribbling donor-base of whack-jobs.

The flailing, sputtering and stunningly disconnected "presidential' campaign of Rick Santorum has fired a new broadside against Herman Cain. This new attack is predicated on Cain's being too Pro-Choice. You read that right. I am not making this up. Taking advantage of the confusion Cain expressed earlier this week on the issue, Santorum's media team is trying to raise money by casting a Cain Presidency as a major threat to the "unborn."



Cain is clearly terrified of this intra-psycho pushback. Today, he rearranged his messaging... again. He wants us to make no mistake; he is still a devoted member of the "stay barefoot, stay at home and use-a-wire-hanger" crowd.

via HuffPo:

"Cain clarified his stance Sunday on CBS's "Face the Nation," saying he is "pro-life from conception, period." He also stood by claims he made this Spring that Planned Parenthood is "planned genocide," and that the organization's mission to "help kill black babies before they came into the world."



The GOP continues its march into territory than not only a majority, but also a provable plurality, is opposed to entering.

The Free Market Party?

Aug 23rd, 2011
by F. Grey Parker

Let's say that there is an activity which is perfectly legal under the laws of the United States.

This activity involves financial transactional behavior.

One could actually argue that it is part of the service economy.


With this in mind, some private citizens who require access in this marketplace elect to make agreements with private corporations to assist the way in which payments for these services are rendered.

Now... let's say that a small group of social activists feel that these arrangements are "wrong." Based on a series of religious rationales, they fight to interfere with this market by passing laws which forbid these private citizens from entering these private contracts for this legal activity.

It sounds crazy in that context, doesn't it? If, perhaps, you thought I was referring to the tenets of Sharia Law which govern "usury" or "interest," boy are you wrong.

Welcome to the American Republican Party in 2011 and its attempts to render illegal the use of private insurance policies to pay for abortions.

Percentages

April12th, 2011

With the U.S. government nearly shutdown last week over abortion arguments and the partial federal funding of Planned Parenthood in particular, it was interesting to see these figures.

Some propaganda is just so wildly dense as to leave me mostly speechless. Today, Jezebel shone a light on arguably the most questionable medium for an anti-choice message I have ever seen. A coat hanger. Seriously. The picture says it all.

Indiana's Shame - Rep. Pence Now Leads The War On Women


Feb 19th, 2011

THERE ARE LINKS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST TO HELP DEFEND WOMEN'S ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE

Indiana's Rep. Mike Pence (R-Dist 6) managed to successfully endanger the health of women nationwide yesterday. The Republican dominated House of Representatives passed his amendment to fully defund taxpayer support of Planned Parenthood by a vote of 240-185


10 Democrats joined their backwards colleagues. They are listed below along with their contact information.

Cecile Richards, President of Planned Parenthood Federation of America was blunt in her response. "To be clear, the amendment to prohibit Planned Parenthood from receiving federal funding does nothing to reduce the deficit and it does nothing to improve the economy. In fact, health professionals will actually lose their jobs as a result, and, most egregiously, it takes health care away from American women who cannot afford to pay for it on their own."
