Insane, inane, irrelevant: The GOP presidential line-up.

Instead of Blaming the President, Why Not Learn Some English?

Controversy on top of controversy! Is there no end?

Maher is occasionally brilliant, but usually boring.

I’m not sure how he manages that, but he does.

I kinda doubt that Bill Maher could look at Weiner at all and not think of a joke.

Kanye West Doesn’t Care About White Women

Making everybody write an apology letter because a bad teacher couldn’t deal with two people at the back of the class is collective punishment.

Of course. Collective punishment is idiotic.

One of the most sarcastic things that I’ve ever written was a letter of apology to a substitute teacher that everybody in the class had to write.

Naturally, no one read it.

That video was hilarious. “Look at me, I’m dark and edgy!”

What I Learned About Society From Costco

Adlib, you allegory is brilliant, but even better is your hilarious descriptions of the “hunter-gatherer” behaviour in the supermarket. 🙂

A Poem by Eavan Boland

Thanks again.

Thanks, FC!

Thanks, Kalima. My first English exam is tommorow. Slightly nervous now.

No, this isn’t one of her poems that’s regarded as Feminist. Though personally the poems that are regarded that way, at least those that I’ve seen, aren’t very, very Feminist, IMO. At least not when compared with Adrienne Rich.

Mitt Romney’s Mormonism — cause for concern or target for bigotry

Neither do I. Humans don’t derive morality from religion, religion derives its moralities from humans.

Thanks.

While I support your comment regarding your example about people using their faith in a way that is beneficial to them and then being attacked, I do not support your implication that not thinking that science and religion can find common ground is childish. They are two unrelated areas that only overlap by virtue of people purposely trying to overlap them.

Also, science and religion are not equatable. One is a method of testing hypothesis and the other is comprised of various sets of beliefs, dogmas and ways of thinking.

Lastly, those who use science to refute religion are generally missing the point. Most religiously-based arguments can be easily refuted through the application of logic, moral and humanistic thought.

Oh, we talked about them too.

To be completely and utterly honest, I would not vote for any candidate who believed that the apocalypse was just around the corner.

I’d say that it would probably affect their policies considerably and not in a good way.

Everything that I know about Mormonism, I learned during “Cults” class in school. Yes, we had a class specifically about cults. However, it only ran for one semester.

Also on the list of cults that we learned about – and how to avoid – was Scientology. Those where is strange conversations in class.

The Daily Planet, Vol. 90

I wish I could beam you some energy, Cher. I may not comment very often on the Planet, but I usually read a few articles from it.

Fox’s power is immense.

Thanks you, bito. I should have included the phrase, “obscure freshmen Representative” in the piece. It has a nice ring to it. 🙂

Thanks, Buddy.

Definitely, Obama should have drawn a paper from the inside of his suit, preferably parchment, unravelled it and proceeded to list the amount of time each network spent covering the Birthers.

Thanks, KQ. Though really, much, much more credit has to go the Kalima and Khirad.

Oh, I think that Lincoln was mostly correct. However, he failed to take into account the media, education and the “I don’t care” demographic.

We have a few, but our main problem is that our governments are successively run by serial incompetents and civil war ideologues; though there’s much less of the latter nowadays.
