  • To the Editor:

    I am sorry that “anti-abortion” women feel alienated from feminism and do not feel welcome at the Women’s March. In answer to the question of whether these woman can be feminists: You absolutely can be a feminist and be morally opposed to abortion.

    However, if being “pro-life” means that you are working to make abortion illegal again, for my daughter and my granddaughters and all American women, the answer is no, you are not a feminist. You are telling me that women have neither the right nor the legal standing to make their own medical decisions.

    Note from KBJ: Just call it a decision; leave the word "medical" out of it.

  • George Will is a self-important jackass who is so detached from reality that he can't understand why Donald Trump was elected president. Thank God I won't be seeing him on Fox News any longer.

  • Long Misty Days (1976). In case you're wondering, the original album cover has no apostrophe in the word "Messin."

    I don’t talk to God much, but today I got on my knees and thanked him. I thanked him for not having to watch Hillary Clinton taking the oath of office.

    Today, with the swearing in of Donald J. Trump, America’s fleeting fascination with socialism has come to an end—and the path to freedom, self-reliance, personal responsibility and individualism has been restored.
