the only reason the dolls would be "sexualized (is that word?) is if the child is sexualized. Little kids don't look at dolls and think about sex. Yes, little girls like hair and makeup and nails but usually it's because they see their mom doing it. The number 1 role model to a little girl is her mother or mother figure (step mom, grandma, sister, whoever is filling that place). She's going to look to her for how to dress and behave.

My daughter is 11 and went through a BRATZ obsession for about 3 years. I don't think she even noticed the clothes. She just wanted all the "stuff" sheets, towels, computer games, tv/dvd combo (which I DID NOT buy) and crap like that. As far as how they dress, I buy her clothes so she dresses like a little girl. She can't dress like a brat doll unless I dress her like a brat doll. Then it would be me, not her, who needs to lie on someone's couch. They're just toys. Who cares? And as far as the books...kids are not going to turn into sluts from reading Bratz books. They don't turn into witches from reading Harry Potter, and I SURE didn't turn into a saint from being forced to read the Bible as a child. If you can get a kid to turn off the TV and read a book, let them read it!

Imagine coming out everyday where you have the world's ear and just saying the first thing that comes to your head---nobody's gonna vote for you because eventually you will say enough that you piss everyone off. Talking in circles is the nature of politics. Everyday is a job interview. For example, I got fired from my last job for drinking at the company picnic. If I go in an interview and say that sh!t, I'm not gonna get the job. Am I a horrible person? No. Can I do the job effectively? Definitely. But first, I have to get through the interview and tell this person what they want to hear. If they ask me a question that I can't answer honestly, I still have to answer so I'm gonna talk in circles. What I'm saying is true and semi-relevant to the question but it's not anything that's gonna screw up my chances of getting the job.

yeah! Keep messing around and McCain and Palin are gonna try to remove gay people from the country. Palin is going to lay hands on you and rebuke the "demonic spirit of homosexuality". You know she goes to a church where they pray it out? Like it's an illness or something evil. You're not going to get everything you want in any candidate so take what you can get and be happy and quit blowing it.
