It's all a matter of perspective. I had dinner with a group of people last night, and one of the women was pregnant for the first time at age 37.  Her husband commented that he was going to buy the kid a onesie that said "Now...

Friend of the blog @SGLawrence had her Twitter account mysteriously suspended last night. She has been very active tweeting conservative messages (including many LI posts) and engaging with "others with opposing views" on Twitter. We can't be sure why her account was suspended, but it fits the...

Rush Limbaugh launched a Facebook Page called Rush Babes for America, intended to show that more women support him than support the National Organization for Women. And sure enough, Rush Babes already has more followers than the NOW page, and NOW is griping. The impetus for Rush...

I just want to get this straight. Everyone knew Obama supported gay marriage, but didn't say so when campaigning for president in 2008 and 2012 for political reasons. Everyone knew the "evolving" meme was BS, Obama was just waiting for the right moment, preferably after re-election. Everyone knew...
