  1. Regarding California's FACT Act, isn't it stunning that we need to pass laws to ensure that pregnant women are accurately informed about something that affects them so profoundly?! It reminds me of an Onion piece I saw awhile ago with the headline (paraphrasing), "New Law Requires Women Seeking Abortions to Look at Photograph of Congressman She is Disappointing."
