Excuse Me?

Thought y’all might enjoy this. Needless to say, I have taken myself off the subscription list. Bully for Planned Parenthood and everything, but how far is too far?

Title of email from Planned Parenthood: “You’d Better Watch Out…”

I get the Christmas song reference, but it is not, emphatically not, very very
not, the best title for an email.

The first paragraph reads:
“Dear Melissa,

Wait, wait – before you turn a deaf ear to hard news and
politics and dive head first into gift giving, family dinners,
and a needed vacation from work, be sure to keep an eye on our
new Supreme Court Watch site.”

Dear Planned Parenthood;
Thank you for taking the time out of this magical holiday season to beat me over the head with my own reproductive responsibilities. In fact, I will put Christmas morning present-opening on hiatus until I have called every member of the Supreme Court and prostrated myself before the shrine of Obnoxious Extremist Behaviors. I throw in my two cents on abstinance-only sex education and Catholic health insurance plans, and this is what I get in my inbox!? Bah, Humbug!

Also, this is entertaining. What’s next… Castle of Swords for Cutters/Self Mutilators?
