Making their stories public, and being able to put names and facts to them, is actionable. An action that would be worth a sum of money for PP to avoid. Perfect example being that I have to present their stories without proof which leaves plenty of room for doubt.

Yet you are assuming that these two girls are lying and yet somehow it's impossible that PP employees would lie. These girls, at least the first one, wouldn't necessarily have known ANY of the facts you've just presented. I also don't get where you're going with the "false positive" bit. I don't think they were even given real tests. Either that or just lied to about the test results.

I don't think any criminal charges got filed. I'm guessing there was some sort of settlement though, because at some point both started refusing to discuss the matter at all to anybody.

Like I said before, I really don't give a f*** what you do or don't believe. It changes my day in no way.

First one had no agenda, actually thought she was pregnant and scared s***less. Second one had an agenda based on the first one's story. If you're selling a fake abortion, it doesn't really matter if it's ASAP and/or after the 5th week, does it? Not plausible to you, because you know a ton of things about pregnancy and abortion that a 20-year old woman who's just been 4 days late for her period for the first time in her life probably doesn't know.

You don't believe left-wing organizations ever do anything wrong so I'm not really concerned about what you believe.

Personally, no, but I have two female friends who have, got told they were pregnant (when they weren't) and told they needed to have an abortion ASAP before anybody found out they were pregnant because that would ruin their lives.

Any bulls*** from Kasich is miniscule compared to the constant bulls*** spewed by PP.

Isn't it time we stop pretending that Planned Parenthood is the only organization in the country that provides health services to women?

They're all terrifying in their own ways. Trump, Cruz, Rubio, Hillary, Bernie. The least terrifying is Kasich but I'm not really thrilled with him either.

Can someone please explain to me why the Sox should get Bruce? Is it his below average offense, his below average defense, or his high salary? Which of those three is the big appeal?

Yes, but this is a Wrigley Field floor--101 years old and likely to come crashing down at any time.

No, Sox should not go after Bruce. He's another lefty slugger in decline.

Any chance he actually plays at AAA or does he just get released if he doesn't make the team?

We can complain about or support Hillary as much as we want, but given even money odds would anybody bet the field over Hillary right now? What if the field got 2-1?

There are too many OF still on the market with not much time left. Fowler, Jackson or someone else seems almost certain to end up on the Sox.

Aren't the Sox already over their "best shape of his life" quota for this offseason?

I'm putting this in the Republican thread, but the question really applies to both parties: What is stopping either of them from rigging their primaries so that the General Election swing states produce the most convention delegates? It seems to me if I'm trying to pick a candidate who has the best chance of winning a general election, I'm weighing Florida, Ohio, North Carolina, Virginia, Colorado and Pennsylvania far higher than Utah, Wyoming, Oklahoma, New York, Maryland or Massachusetts. Those are the people whose votes are going to matter more in November, so why not make their votes matter more in February-May?

Rubio? Yes. Trump or Cruz? No.

A closer election in 2008 at least makes Obama slightly vulnerable in 2012. As it played out, nobody had a chance to beat him in 2012.

John McCain cost the GOP the 2012 election when he picked Sarah Palin as his running mate in 2008.

Sox could have come up with that kind of money for Fowler. Clearly they didn't think he was worth giving up a pick for.

It may have nothing at all to do with money. It seems to have a lot to do with Hahn believing that Fowler isn't worth giving up a draft pick. I know that would drive the droves of "Sox are cheap" idiots crazy. Sox don't sign a free agent and it having nothing to do with money.
