Are a majority of Americans insane or just stupid?

FAIR: Attacks on Pledge Ruling Bolster Its Logic


    “The pledge, taken as a whole, was not intended to be a coercive prayer, but was designed to promote patriotism, and as such is consistent with the neutrality principle,” wrote Rosen (New York Times, 6/28/02). Editorialized the Daily News (6/17/02): “The two words, viewed in the context of the entire pledge, have nothing whatsoever to do with avowing fealty to God.”

    Yet if one can believe President Dwight Eisenhower, who signed the bill that added “under God” to the Pledge, that is precisely what altering the oath was meant to accomplish. “In this way we are reaffirming the transcendence of religious faith in America’s heritage and future,” Eisenhower announced at the time (Columbus Dispatch, 6/28/02). “From this day forward, the millions of our schoolchildren will daily proclaim in every city and town, every village and every rural schoolhouse, the dedication of our nation and our people to the Almighty.”

Calif. high court upholds medical marijuana law. Unanimously, I might add.


    ”The possession and cultivation of marijuana is no more criminal – so long as its conditions are satisfied – than the possession and acquisition of any prescription drug with a physician’s prescription,” Chief Justice Ronald M. George wrote for the court.

Stories from a Chicago porn clerk

I used to work at a video store, not a porn video store, but still I think anyone who has had to deal with people in a customer service capacity will enjoy this site, True Porn Clerk Stories. It is filled with hilarious anecdotes and interesting insights into attitudes about porn and sexuality and job dissatisfaction.


    I think the reason straight guys like enormous schlongs, apart from the whole bigger = more powerful and more potent thing, is that it’s an easy answer to Freud’s unanswerable question: what do women want? The real answer is too hard. Women want you to be independent but emotionally available. They want you to be attached but not smothering. They want time and attention, and also some time alone. They want you to grow and change with them. They want you to be all kinds of things, and it’s going to be a different list for every woman, and that list is always subject to change without notice. For some men, and many of my regular porn addicts, I think, fall into this category, the answer is that women want you to change that glaring personality flaw and learn to talk to them like a human being. Maybe they want you to take a frigging shower.

    The other way is so much easier. What do women want? Enormous, glistening cocks. If you’ve got one, great, your job is done. No need to worry about anything else. If you don’t, well, then if women don’t like you it’s not your fault.

Man, Bush is such a dipshit. God must have a real good sense of humor albeit a very sick and twisted sense of humor.

    They say their finding also adds weight to the growing body of evidence for climate change, which climate experts predict may cause sea levels to rise by up to a metre over the next century.
