my impression of one Gaius Baltar
Gaius Baltar and Gina Inviere, post-Pegasus
Baltar: Ms. Inviere, you're as beautiful as the day I met your clone. Well, actually, she was hotter, cuz she hadn't gotten beaten and starved and raped and just generally brutalized for months on end. Anyway, let's frak!
He caresses her face and moves in to kiss her.
Inviere: Can't, still recovering from getting beaten and starved and raped and just generally brutalized for months on end.
Baltar continues toassault put the moves on Inviere.
Baltar's Inner Six: is not there to intervene
Inviere: No really, I mean it, I'm not over the trauma of it all - GET THE FRAK OFF ME!!!!
Baltar: Geez, what's your deal? Your clone consented, you should too, but it's like I'm not supposed to put the moves on someone who got tortured, and it's totally giving me blue balls!
Inviere: You're right. I'm really sorry I got dehumanized and stripped of my sexual agency. I'll make it up to you by putting out and then blowing myself up.
There is not one iota of irony in Inviere's last line.

new military strategy
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/06/29/AR2008062901977.html
I suppose the new master plan is for the US military to poison American citizens, and then they won't have anyone to defend.

let's all resort to coat hangers

"After researching the science behind steroidal contraceptives, I decided they could hurt the woman and possibly hurt her unborn child." - "Steroidal" contraceptives? Really?
"Virginia does not have any laws or regulations that would prohibit a pro-life pharmacy, and is not considering adopting any, according to the Virginia Board of Pharmacy." Why am I not surprised? I learned in senior year government class that it's illegal to suggest abortion. If a friend got pregnant, I could get arrested just for saying, "Hm, that's a dire predicament, if it were me, I'd get an abortion because I find it to be the most sensible option."
Far be it from me to repeat every other argument I have. I'm pretty sure the world knows them. If not, ask me.
