Writing for Slate’s Human Nature blog, William Saletan posits that “the late-breaking frontrunner for dumbest policy idea of 2008: defunding Planned Parenthood in the name of fighting abortion.”
The campaign to defund Planned Parenthood is really about abortions. [The Family Research Council] would like to see fewer of them. So would I. And that’s the crux of the idiocy: The single best thing you can spend money on to reduce the number of abortions, not just in this country but around the world, is Planned Parenthood.
I’ll say that again: If you define pro-life as preventing abortions, Planned Parenthood is the most effective pro-life organization in the history of the world. No, it doesn’t give teenagers the idea of having sex. That idea comes to them quite naturally, thank you very much. What Planned Parenthood does, more comprehensively than anyone else, is to distribute the means and knowledge to control your risk of getting pregnant when you don’t want to be pregnant. And those two things, combined with pressure to exercise that control assiduously, are the surest way to prevent abortions. If you wait till women are already unhappily pregnant, you’re too late.

This is really cool!
In broadcasting the world’s first live 3-D football game to theaters in Los Angeles, New York and Boston on Thursday evening, the NFL promises an “up close, personal, visceral” experience that could open a new revenue stream for the league.

The original members of Straight No Chaser perform their “Teen Sensation Medley”, poking fun at Backstreet Boys, N*Sync, and even Britney Spears, complete with cheesy choreography.
