Jonah Goldberg and the floozy-patch
From over where he's standing in the Corner, Son of Lucianne flirts with some variation of feminism and loses it like a Republican in an '06 midterm-

Rubber Match (Jonah Goldberg)

JPod - I have to say I lean (not embrace, just lean) toward the view that some of "the crass commercialization" of birth control is a bit demeaning to women, or to us all. Maybe we've seen different commercials. But I'm thinking of the ones which tell young women that this pill will also clear up their unsightly blemishes. I'm also thinking of those ads for that patch that you can wear for months, and — implied by the ad — display them in provocative places so as to send a signal that you're good to go. Who needs a Chinese letter tatooed on your lower back when you can flaunt your floozy-patch like tail feathers?

Birth control commercials are demeaning, see? Jonah's positively limp with worry! No, wait, that's Rush. And those ads are ok, of course. -As are ads for feminine hygiene products. Those remind him of Mr Novak.

1. Boy would I love to see his ass drafted
and dropped in Falujah or maybe Tehran. As a nuclear bomb catcher.

2. Oh Jonah! Those were the days.
When your crazy theories actually got traction. Like the blue dress. Now it's all but a dream. It's fading, Jonah. But don't worry, we look back affectionately. For it's entertainment value, you've been fun.

3. What an idiot!
Gawd forbid the manufacturers advertise the helpful characteristics of their products. :eyes:

Birth control pills are prescribed for a whole range of conditions aside from contraception. I know several women who take them to regulate their periods and clear acne. Also, has it occured to this numbnuts that some of those 'floozies' might be married?

7. Exactly, I knew an actress who had a TV show who used the pill to clear acne.

5. When are people going to get the memo that the right wing wants contraception banned
just as much as abortion?
