How Can We Better Fool Them, Since Our Old Tactics No Longer Work?

A prolife article written by the director of NARAL.

This is really good - not the author's perspective, but the holes they dug for themselves as they wrote the article and the fact that they acknowledge the holes they've dug.

As my friend Rob put it: It's like "we suck. we need to find another way to fool the public...did we just say that?"

Quirks

Quirks.

Keeping in step with my twin, I feel obliged to expound on my own.

1. I do not like to write the number 8 - in fact, my 8's are always crooked and therefore disliked greatly. I prefer the number 3.
2. I do not count stairs. Rather I prefer to skip every-other stair when ascending, not caring whether I land on my right foot or left, only that I land squarely on either foot or both.
3. I don't rub material.
4. Hearing someone with the hiccups makes me laugh - especially if my twin has the hiccups.
5. I, too, get the chills when hearing anything out of tune.
6. I love blackberries, but probably not as much as my twin.

And a couple extra:
7. I can't sit still when watching a movie - I have to be doing something productive so I don't get fidgety.
8. It drives me nuts when my personal email inbox has more than 100 emails in it. Right now my inbox has 967, so yeah, you guessed it, I'm going nuts.
9. I don't like to floss. In fact, I find it the most annoying daily habit of all.
10. I really like to wash dishes. Especially in the winter when it's cold. It's the best way to get warm.

I Need You - by Jars of Clay

Strangely out of place
There's a light filling this room where
None would follow before
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
Do I want shelter from the rain
Or the rain to wash me away?

CHORUS
I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for

I might sound like a fool
But I think I felt you moving closer to me
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away

CHORUS
I need you, I need you, I need you
You're all I'm livin' for
(All I'm livin' for)
All I'm livin' for
(all I'm livin' for)
You're all I'm livin' for

Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
I only had a second to spare
But all the time in the world to know you're there
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away

I need you, I need you, I need you
