• Teacher’s Aide Could Lose Job Over…Her Homemade Lunches

  May 17, 2013 at 5:37pm

  In reply to RaydocX.

  Kadster01: When I first read the piece I thought maybe she was eating something that actually looked better than what the kids were eating. But after watching the video and seeing what her husband was making, I knew that couldn’t be the issue. So now I’m thinking you’re right. Can’t have anyone separating from the herd and doing their own thing.

• Network Releases Statement on Pat Robertson’s Controversial Advice to Cheated-On Women

  May 17, 2013 at 5:07pm

  He started out okay when he said stop talking about it. But then he wandered off into the weeds. She has to truly forgive her husband and if you’re harping on it then you haven’t forgiven him. I think the best advice one Christian can give to another Christian in this situation is whenever you feel bitter, turn that bitterness over to the Holy Spirit. Let Him know what you are feeling and that you are too weak to overcome it and that He needs to take over. The Holy Spirit is extemely powerful and very quick to act when we come to Him in faith.

• Justice Clarence Thomas: ‘The Elites & Media’ Are Gentle With Obama Because They Agree With Him

  May 4, 2013 at 2:18pm

  In reply to Xanderson.

  JTWINHAM: Thomas has stated that he goes into oral argument session knowing how he will decide a case so he rarely asks questions. “I refuse to participate. I don’t like it so I don’t do it.” This statement and his ensuing quietness during oral arguments is not an indication of someone who lacks intellegience. His attitude is certainly not a rarity in the history of the supreme court. It has been stated that before Scalia’s ascension to the court, the justices rarely asked questions during oral arguments.

• Jim Carrey Rips Fox News ‘Bullies’: ‘A Media Colostomy Bag’ and ‘Giant Culture Fart’

  March 30, 2013 at 1:11pm

  Fox news will be remembered as the only news organization in which all sides of a story are presented. Mr “I talk out of my ****” Carrey is the one who will be remembered as a culture fart.

• TV Show ‘Wife Swap’ Sets Up Tea Party Christian With Polyamorous Family: Guess Who Ends Up Looking Reasonable

  March 30, 2013 at 1:00pm

  In reply to termyt.

  Well said. Let’s check back in with both these families in about 5 years and see which ones are leading a happy fulfilling family life. I’m going to go out on a limb and say the Loudons.

• Can the Boy Scouts Ban Openly Gay Members?

  March 13, 2013 at 11:56pm

  In reply to TommyGuns.

  Perhaps the bottom line is a consideration. But I wonder if they are more concerned with the increasing harrassment that the boys are being subjected to by those who simply are intolerant of their stand against allowing gays in the boy scouts. If they continue to stay true to their founding principles than it certainly will get worse.

• George W. Bush’s Painting Teacher Predicts: He’ll ‘Go Down in the History Books As a Great Artist’

  People should read the 9/11 commission report as it is informative instead of the leftwing opinion piece from the NY Times that you cite.
  America’s rating was downgraded because of gridlock. Obama had a majority in both houses of congress for his first two years and spent that time spending like a drunken sailor on shore leave. His stimulus packages and bailouts and let’s not forget the behemoth legislative fiat, Obamacare. No that had nothing to do with the downgrade. It was “gridlock” and “failure to get anything done”
  Removing Sadam and the Taliban were worthy enterprises. But we allowed the installment of Religious wackjobs who have allowed sharia law rather than encouraging secularism in their governments which could have possibly given their people a better future. And as I cited earlier the debt was going down, not up. But the democrats have certainly managed to stop that train. Congratulations.

  KeatonBlubberButt: zfacts…really..hahahahahahahahahahaha…breath…..hahahahahahahahahahaha. zfacts is bs and everybody knows that including those who try to pawn their statistics off on the ill informed. The deficit under Bush went steadily up until 2004. Than it started to go down and was continuing to go down until the dems took control. Check the deficit from 2008 and onward. It is an inconvenient fact for the left that the deficit was going down in spite of the war and the Bush tax cuts. Now under Obama we are in the debt stratosphere and yet you believe things are so much better than under Bush.
  1993 World Trade Center Bombing:6 dead 1000 wounded. 1995 car bomb explodes at the office of U.S. program manager for the Saudi National Guard in Riyadh. 7 killed including 5 Americans. 1996 truck bomb demolishes the Khobar Towers apartment complex. 19 U.S servicemen killed and hundreds wounded. We knew during the Clinton administration of the danger of Al-Qaeda including their plans to use planes as weapons and their continued desire to take down the twin towers. How many notices do Presidents get concerning terrorist activity on a daily basis. Did Clinton also receive warnings. Why didn’t he stop these incidences and these are only some of the terrorist attacks that occurred during his administration. Yes it takes mental gymnastics to foist all blame on Bush while exonerating Clinton.

  KeatonBlubberButt: (continued) Blaming Bush for 9/11 takes some mental gymnastics, especially if you exonerate Clinton since there were several terroist attacks that occurred during his administration including the 1st attack on the twin towers. Bush knew about 9/11? Please.
  There hasn’t been peace between Israel and the “palestinians” since…..well never..but you want us to believe that we were on the brink of it if only Bush had adequately followed up. At the time, Clintons talks were considered a failure by the illustrious and “unbiased” NPR but enjoy your fantasy world where peace would have broken out if only Bush hadn’t been President.
  The economy was downgraded under Obama in 2011, 3 years after Bush left office and Obama had a majority of his party in both houses of congress for a full two years enacting pretty much whatever they wanted.
  Failed to prevent people from mailing Anthrax. Again…Please. That is grasping.
  Energy independence? Obama has done more to thwart America becoming enery independent than any President in recent history. And he has wasted more taxpayer money chasing boondoogles that will never create energy independence.

  KeatonBlubberButt: Obama is the disaster. If Bush had served another term, we would have been in better shape than we are now and I say that with the knowledge that George W was a big government conservative. That is just how bad Obama and our economy under Obama is. The war efforts were worthy enterprises. But they were both launched under the guise of winning hearts and minds of people who don’t share our values instead of winning a primary objective of turning out their tyrants and installing secular governments that had some hope of bringing enlightenment to their respective countries.
  I can understand your dislike of No Child Left Behind as it has a provision for school choice and I know giving people a choice on removing their child from a failing school is verbotin to the leftwing. Your motto is “let them stay and be stupid like us”
  The Bush tax cuts were brilliant and the deficit was going down until the democrats took over the congress.
  Before Katrina, it was the state’s job to take preemptive action in natural disasters and the federal governments role to take over when the state requested it. Now, thanks to the incompetence of Nagin and Blanco, both democrats, that has all changed.
  I work in the healthcare field. The rising cost of healthcare is largely due to government meddling and regulation.
