This weekend in Washington D.C. is the March for Women's Lives, a march for women's reproductive rights. Molly Ivins is calling for any woman who can get there to go, and points out that the demonstration is not just about abortion rights, but threats to reproductive rights across the board. Will Durst points out that the March for Women's Lives "...isn't just a women's march, this is a rights march," and men should have an interest, too.
File this under the "what the F**k???" category. Jim Hightower talks about the tax loophole that allows businesses to write off up to $100,000 from their taxes for big SUV's. He's not talking Explorers and Suburbans folks, he's talking about the HUGE gas guzzlers, the Hummer H2's, Range Rovers and Navigators.

That man gives me a headache!
