New plan: Print this. Tape it to every single Republican candidate’s forehead. Let them try talking with the facts on their face.

"If anything, women have shown in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that they are not only fully capable; they have excelled. They have saved many men’s lives. And it did not damage unit cohesion. And if Rick Santorum doesn’t believe that, then he can volunteer, enlist, put on a uniform, and put his butt on the line and try it himself. He’s playing politics. He is saying something inflammatory because he thinks he’s going to get a certain population to give him money, and it’s a shame because America’s daughters are just as capable of doing their jobs as America’s sons, whether that’s at home as doctors and attorneys or in combat as convoy commanders. This is the 21st century. Get over yourself."

This 14-Year-Old Girl Just Bought A House In Florida
When a 14-year old can afford to buy a home, does that mean home prices have hit bottom? Willow Tufano is a child of the housing collapse. Her real estate agent mom scrapes together a living in Florida by selling foreclosed properties. Willow found her own niche scavenging abandoned washes, dryers and furniture from her mother’s properties and selling them on Craigslist. In just six months, Willow saved enough money to buy a two-bedroom fixer upper for $12,000. -Chana Joffe-Walt (Photo by Chana Joffe-Walt/NPR)

Dear people who say they will leave America if Rick Santorum is elected president: Leave, by all means. That’s fewer people with no morals living here. Sincerely, A Christian who is sick and tired of being discriminated against.
Right, because Christians are continously “discriminated against” in the U.S.
Right, because Christians are the only people who have “morals.”
Right, because America should become a theocracy that only has room for self-righteous, I’m-gonna-shove-my-religion-down-your-throat “Christians” and their anti-everything-that-doesn’t-agree-with-my-religion figurehead, Rick Santorum.
Sounds about right. [/endsarcasm]

Wendell Pierce to Open a Grocery Store in New Orleans
Healthy Foods in non-rich neighborhoods:
“The store will offer a free shuttle to anyone who spends $50 or more, so they need not walk or take the bus with heavy bags. Each month, the store plans a cookout (which in New Orleans usually means a crayfish boil) to raise money for the community.”
