  • She’s welcome to be true to her beliefs. I will defend her right. But, she needs to understand that this will make anathema to *most* Americans. Stick to your guns (whatever they are), but don’t whine that nobody understands me…

  • Ryan’s mom is right. He should be true to himself. But. she should also teach him that being true to himself is sometimes rough going. He should not expect to be handed the keys when he bucks the trend.
    I’m reminded of another Scout who, at his Eagle Board Review, in front of his Scoutmaster and bigwigs from the District office, declared himself an atheist. His Scoutmaster pulled him aside and reiterated that BSA doesn’t care *what* you believe in, only that you believe there is something *higher* than yourself. He refused to back off his statement and was, properly, denied his Eagle.

  • God will never give you more than you can handle. Losing track of this and the fact that you can lean on Him when you feel weak is despair and despair is the means to suicide.

  • Hmmm… So gravity can pull plates *in* and create earthquakes, but apparently *cannot* pull plates in causing one plate to subtend another.
    Where the plates are created is higher than where they slide beneath another plate. That sounds like the definition of downhill to me.

  • Sorry, but I work with drug addicts who have been ‘unemployed’ for, in some cases, decades. they are not uncomfortable.
    Their standards are low.
    They are given a place to get out of the rain, given food or the means to buy their food, given free cell phones and minutes, given free computer access, given free or money to pay for cable, given the money to buy televisions to hook up to the cable, given drug treatment (more drugs BTW), are given debit cards loaded with our tax dollars so they can buy junk food for their kids at Royal Farms, and they, literally, spend their lives running from one study to the next study, earning money for smokes and more drugs.
    Not once do they have to look anyone in the eye as they *take* from someone else.
    Not once are they made to feel as if they should NOT be taking from other people as they lounge around screwing and doing drugs.
    The discomfort is not living in drab, filthy, low quality housing and wearing hand me down clothes, although most are *very* well dressed. Their standards are too low to give a darn about these things b/c they have all of their animal needs met.
    The discomfort *should* be the shame, something our society has worked very hard to eradicate, with the best of intentions and the worst results, the shame of living like animals on hand outs from people who know they are better than they are.

  • Anyone else notice the sudden flood of posters trolling DNC talking points?
    The Blaze must be hitting home, because “you know you’re over the target when you start taking flak!”
    Best thing to do is ignore the trolls and Kos Kids. ****** ‘em off when the adults are talking and no one pays them any attention…
