Why I keep on fighting. (WARNING: Picture-intensive thread!)
Sometimes I get discouraged, and think about saying "to hell with it" and withdrawing from the world. But when I get to feeling that way, I look at these pictures and remember why it's my obligation not to let those neocon bastards win!

5. Your daughter is 17 months old, huh?
My last girlfriend had a little boy that age, and Christ almighty, was he adorable! I'll bet your "peanut" is a cutie pie, too.

I'll bet also that if you take your eyes off her for even one second, she gets into something she isn't supposed to get into! :7

6. they're all white babies---where are the other minority babies?
How about Hispanic or African-American babies? Aren't they also worth fighting for? :shrug:

8. Ask the publisher of the magazine they came from.
That thought had crossed my mind, too.

Those photos all came from a copy of PARENTS magazine that I recently found abandoned in my apartment building's lobby. If you're wondering where the non-white babies are, ask the folks at PARENTS!

9. They make non-white babies?
Who knew?

Nearly every ad you see today uses white babies. A few exceptions are diaper commercials.
