Congratulations Professor Foxy!

Congratulations Professor Foxy!
As of this morning, Professor Foxy holds an elite, exclusive, and hard-earned membership to the club “Lifesite news targets.” I, too, am a member, so I can tell you- she’s in for a real treat!
This special membership offers guaranteed access to: having your name misspelled and/or your title incorrectly described; having your words taken out of context; being blatantly misrepresented; having your views on an issue warped and manipulated for the anti-choice agenda; experiencing infuriating condescension from a number of sources; and, my personal favorite, having anti-choice news sites show up at the top of the page when your name is googled. Fun!
:-/
I joke, but for real, I am proud of our very own Professor. My mantra is and continues to be, that you know you’re doing something right when you’re pissing anti-choicers off.
