  1. I believe in making the world safe for our children, but not our children's children, because I don't think children should be having sex. -- Deep Thoughts, by Jack Handy

  2. Grown ups shouldn't let fairy tales tell them what to do.

      Grown ups should also stop indoctrinating children into their own cult of choice.

  3. The Official Website for House Republicans doctored the State Of The Union address before posting it. They actually removed references to climate change. What a joke. http://goo.gl/VWEMVF

  5. Mitt Romney said he wanted GDP growth to be 5% by the time he left office in 2016. Obama beat that by 2 years! Paul Ryan said he wanted unemployment under 6% by 2016. It is now! Newt Gingrich said he would get gas prices below $2.50... Since Obama has beat all the Republican goals, does he get any credit? - Bill Maher

      I love the Repub line, that things are only good now because the people anticipated the GOP owning both houses. LMAO! Interesting how they take credit for the good with once face and deny the good with the other.

      Maher should stick to trashing Muslims :-p

  6. If you’re a state employee in Texas, you could soon be stripped of your paycheck and pension if you obey federal court rulings that Republicans don’t like. In response to federal court rulings striking down same-sex marriage bans, Texas Republicans have introduced a bill in the state legislature that would punish state workers who don’t reject federal court decisions ruling same-sex marriage bans unconstitutional. http://goo.gl/whzGxy

      Hey...everyone is equal, provided you're a wealthy, white, Christian. As the cons say 'you can never be too rich or too white.' Though that phrase should be updated to add too straight and too male.

      No...this is great stuff! The vile, discriminatory bills and statements being put forth by the GOP will only hasten the decline of religion in government and society.

  7. Some days life seems like an endless battle; too much to do, too little time. Then all of a sudden your hectic morning is interrupted by an unforseen and expensive car repair. While at the shop you are surprised that the horrible looking, free glazed doughnut that you decided to eat has bonus purple filling and all is right with the world and the struggle seems worthwhile.

  8. “Religion, a mediaeval form of unreason, when combined with modern weaponry becomes a real threat to our freedoms. This religious totalitarianism has caused a deadly mutation in the heart of Islam and we see the tragic consequences in Paris today. ... ‘Respect for religion’ has become a code phrase meaning ‘fear of religion.’ Religions, like all other ideas, deserve criticism, satire, and, yes, our fearless disrespect.” - Salman Rushdie

      "In 2013, Statistics Canada reported that 8.8 per cent of Canadians had low incomes in 2011. That figure was down from 15.2 per cent in 1996. Statistics Canada uses a Low-Income Cut-Off (LICO), which is based on half the national median income."

    4. The_Squid

      The_Squid

      Overthere is cherry picking the LICO data, which is only one measure of poverty. And it isn't a measure of income inequality.

  10. Stupid hockey parents should be right next to doughnuts and peameal bacon on the list of things Canadian. Sometimes I think violence is the answer.

      A T-ball melee? LMAO! In my case there hasn't been any violence yet. I coach a very young travel hockey team and am ready to knock out a couple of parents that seem to believe their kids are NHL bound 10-12 years from now.

      Its a true story. Francis chose his name because he's an animal lover. Hence Francis, the patron saint of animals.

  13. Dubya Bush asked not to be informed of the torture sites so that he would not accidentally disclose their locations. That's sickening and hilarious at the same time. Worst president ever. http://bit.ly/1uiTCjZ

      Learn something new every day...but it's only a possibility. The hair sampled is Jewish, the fact that it belonged to Eva is questionable.

      I know, but it's an intriguing possibility in some sort of a way. If it is true, I wonder if he knew. Of course no difference to the millions who died. But still an interesting juxtaposition.

      Indeed, definitely fascinating.

  18. Repub James Inhofe, a man that blamed climate change on divine intervention, is the incoming chair of the Environment and Public Works Committee. Dumber and dumber and dumber.

      That is certainly congruent with Harper's following of the CAMA church.

      They're not totally gagged in Canada, they just have to report directly to government first. But that's a moot point since Harper fired them all anyway.

      If you read my posts you'll note that I am critical of religion in general. Bad ideas should be denounced. In this case I'm pointing out that the usual Christian apologist types, you know the Fox News and Sun TV audience, go silent when one of their own extremists beheads a man for his religious views.

    3. Mighty AC

      Mighty AC

      As The_Squid pointed out according to Christians the cold blooded killer will go to paradise while the innocent victim will suffer an eternity of torture. These are certainly ideas that need to be eliminated. I think we've all tolerated enough death and abuse in the name of magic men. The reasonable position is to promote rationale discussion, the delusional one is to say 'my magic man is better than theirs you bigot.'
