I am recording this so I can see if this leads to sickness or not. I am not feeling horrible; my workout this morning was slightly sub par but within ...

  Sheesh! If you watch the video attached to this story you can only shake your head and wonder what is wrong with these people.   The judge ruled that sectarian prayers do not belong in the Forsyth County Commissioners meetings.  So what do they do?  Right after the ruling they have yet another Christian ...

  Have Coffee Will Write — Authority: 146
  Jeffrey Goldberg writes:I am not arguing, of course, that American Muslims, as a whole, are violently unhappy with America (I’ve argued the opposite, in fact). But I do think that elite makers of opinion in this country try very hard to ignore the larger meaning of violent acts when they happen to be perpetrated by ...

  desk full of clutter — Authority: 116
  Moments ago I refreshed my Facebook homepage and was met with a head smackingly obnoxious status update of a "friend," a person I may just have to unfriend over this shit.

  ricketyclick — Authority: 500
