Varnished


Saw JUNO a couple of days ago. Did the critics?

"She goes to the local abortion clinic but finds the place disgustingly casual (they hand out flavored condoms), and she decides to carry the baby to term."

"Antenna aquiver for false notes, she checks in at the abortion clinic and doesn't like its casually clinical attitude. So she checks out the alternative press and finds an ad placed by a couple seeking adoption."

"Juno thought about getting an abortion, but couldn't do it—the clinic was too drab, its patients too hopeless, its receptionist too thoughtless . . . she just can't be bothered to stick it out in the most depressing waiting room on earth."

" . . . for reasons that aren't clear to anyone . . . Juno can't terminate the pregnancy."
I'm 100 percent for abortion rights, but the reasons all are clearly in the movie.

Flipping through the news channels over the last few days, it seems the reaction to Obama is binary. So which one are you?

Al Sharpton's Hip-Hop Clean-up Campaign Counter

"After the Imus scandal, Rev Al Sharpton said, 'We will not stop until we make it clear that no one should denigrate women. We must deal with the fact that ho and the b-word are words that are wrong from anybody's lips. It would be wrong if we stopped here and acted like Imus was the only problem. There are others that need to get this same message.' This counter is here to keep track of how long it takes Rev Sharpton to take action on his vow."
