Ultimately, clothing companies need to decide exactly what they are trying to accomplish. In one instance, their dishonest and inconsistent sizing standards seem targeted towards allowing larger-sized women to feel better about their bodies. However, the continual addition of ever smaller sizes and the use of tiny models for advertising send the unintended message that it is perfectly acceptable, and perhaps desirable, for women to aspire to rail-thin figures.

A poll conducted for TIME just before the general election in May 2005 found that 51% of British people surveyed considered him dishonest; he was the most unpopular Prime Minister ever to be re-elected. Moreover, his skill in selling the war has only added to the burden he must bear for the mess in Iraq that continues to get worse despite three years of U.S. and British occupation. According to a poll released...
