:: Wednesday, December 25, 2002 :: WalMart: Evil Oppressors WalMart decided to pull a Barbie that got knocked up off the shelves. She even had a husband and a son. I can't tell from the picture on Drudge whether she's barefoot or not."Customers said they were not happy with the pregnant Midge doll so Wal-Mart removed the entire Happy Family set," said Melissa Berryhill, a spokeswoman for Wal-Mart.Well, it's no wonder! "Happy Family Set" What the hell? What family is this modeled after, anyway? I wouldn't want any future daughters of mine to play with something called a "Happy Family Set." It might lead her to believe that such things exist. Wow, that sounded harsh. I shouldn't say something so negative on Christmas. I just wouldn't want her to believe that there are families that aren't dysfunctional. They need to sell the set with a Crazy Aunt Margie doll, oh and maybe she could come with a Strange Cousin Matthew.
