Fancy?

Seriously though, if a girl wants to sell her virginity for a million dollars? Fine. But, if a girl has to let a group of guys gang bang her in order to pay her heating bill, I think there is a problem.

Consenting adults? Fine. Turning girls into expensive (or not) sex dolls? No. Paying money to turn humans into inanimate objects is not just morally wrong, it has harmful consequences to those objectified as well. (not to say this is always the case, but when it is, it should be illegal)


Why would she need to pay a heating bill with all those sweaty male bodies around her?

IMO -Santorum would have been completely out of the primaries way long ago, except for the media hyping up Santorum's wins of the delegate-free primary day they had in Missouri - remember that? - I believe it was less than 200,000 voter involved that day? So he gained phony momentum into some southern states, and the media got a lot more airplay on the primaries.

Media is playing a bigger role in politics than ever. If there is no story - they will create one because it is easy to cover and sells well to morons. Not sure if Santorum's primary hype is officially done yet. But when it is, I suspect the media will make out Obama Romney into a close horse race, and that hype tends to sway enough people to make it self-fulfilling media coverage.

I realize none of this is new, but IMO it has gone to a new level with the prevailing extreme partisanship coupled with the ADD effect of 24/7 internet coverage.

And if the term "self-fulfilling media coverage" hasn't been coined yet- send all royalties to me.

Wow, Santorum pulled out of the race. Didn't see that coming.

Nah, they're still against that. Procreation or no recreation.

I'll miss his frothy bus. Romney v Obama. Ding Ding.

Well, so there it is. You have to give the dude credit for basically ending in second place. I don't think anyone including myself expected that.

I wouldn't have a My Little Pony avatar if I had any ability to handicap the way the Republican primaries would unfold.
