So apparently Bill O'Reilly is now trying to start a boycott against San Francisco. From his site:

Should Americans who disagree with San Francisco's anti-military stance avoid traveling to the city?
Yes
No

My response is twofold, first anybody who actually believes a single word coming out of that lying, pompous gasbag's hole should absolutely refrain from visiting SF. We neither need nor want your kind around here, so pack up the kiddies (all 9 of them) and head for Kansas instead. You can actually watch time roll itself back to the Dark Ages right before your eyes! It's fun and educational (and by educational I mean in a godly sort of way, none of that elitist "science" stuff).

Second, one wonders if this boycott will have the stunning financial repercussions of his previous ones against France and any department store that instructs its employees to say "Happy Holidays" rather than "Merry Christmas".

This I had to share

TBogg on Target's decision to allow its pharmacists to deny women access to Plan B prescriptions:

I mentioned to the lovely and frugal Mrs. tbogg what is going on with Target and her immediate response was that she was taking her business elsewhere, and she looooves Target (which I don't for reasons too snobbish to go into here). As a Penis-American I don't have a uterus in this fight, but I do have a litmus test for who I do business with and who I vote for, and number one on that list is the right of a woman to determine what goes on in her own body, and when Theo-Americans start putting their spiritual needs before the physical needs of a woman with a very real problem, I don't have to think twice.

It's easy for me to say "boycott Target" since I like them only slightly more than Wal-Mart, but I know a lot of women in Southern California that won't take to being treated like a slut just because some pecksniff in a white coat cares more for Deuteronomy than the Hippocratic oath.

Your conscience may vary.

A little something to make you giggle. Via metaquotes:
sclerotic_rings says about eternalslacker's icon, which depicts an animated Ann Coulter flinging her arms about and the caption "she hasn't been the same since some liberal in Kansas dropped a house on her sister":

Completely unrelated, I disagree slightly with your icon. Everyone knows that Ann Coulter's worst nightmare involves Sigourney Weaver, a forklift, and an open airlock.
