This face = the reason I love David Tennant as the Doctor, + the perfect expression of how I’ll feel when he regenerates and is replaced by this funky-haired Matt Smith. Fortunately, I’ve been taking my time with Doctor Who (it’s been over a year or something since I started watching) so maybe it’ll be a while before I suffer the change.

“In a vote of 251 to 175, the House passed H.R. 3, the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act, to ensure that taxpayer dollars will not be used for abortions even though the Hyde Amendment already prohibits the use of taxpayer dollars for abortion.
“But that’s not all. According to the National Women’s Law Center, the bill will increase costs and taxes for millions of women...
