text"I Had an Abortion" by Yoshie Furuhashi
Barbara Ehrenreich argues that women should own up to our abortions in her New York Times column. We can begin doing so by wearing a beautiful "I Had an Abortion" T-shirt made available by Planned Parenthood -- the T-shirt denounced by anti-abortion right-wing groups.

We know that the citizens throwing flowers never materialized, and now it turns out that helping Iraqi women was just a PR line too.
