  Bigotry: “intolerance of those who hold different opinions than oneself”
  Who’s the bigot here? You assume that those who disagree with you in this opinion are full of hatred. Based on what? It would be far better to attempt to argue this with actual discussion rather than simply resorting to shallow name-calling.

  I hope they’re able to reunite him with a family member!

• Broke: USPS Plans to Cut 35,000 Jobs

  February 27, 2012 at 10:20am

  Threatening to close these facilities & decrease service is just a thug tactic to attempt to receive a bailout. Anyone who has worked professionally with the USPS knows what a bloated organization it has become. While businesses across the nation have to continually evaluate cutting costs, the USPS has continued to spend & hire layers upon layers of unnecessary middle management. Cuts need to be made, but not in these areas where service will be affected. Private organizations could never afford to make such poor business decisions.

  C’mon Julie. You’re not fooling anyone with that lipstick.

• Occupy DC Targets Exclusive Presidential Dinner, Sen. Lieberman Glitter-Bombed

  Why weren’t they arrested? I think we need to differentiate between peaceful lawful dissent and thugs who deserve to be arrested. If you don’t draw the line at illegal behavior, you’re just giving them a free pass. (Which is obviously abused.) Ben is right – there is no way the tea party would’ve been given this leeway.

• AP ‘Fact Check’: Romney‘s ’Ghetto Language’ Ad, Obamacare, Israel & More

  This is not a fact check. It’s a Democrat response list. A “fact” is something that is indisputably the case. Most of the “facts” stated here are obviously opinions.

  Speaking as a Mom with a teenage daughter, this does not look like something to be taken lightly. It obviously has been devastating for the poor girls trying to control it. It’s going to affect their future. I would be shouting from the rooftops until I got an answer!

• Worship Wars: Is the Worst Fight in Your Church Over the Style of Music?

  November 27, 2011 at 12:42pm

  I enjoy a mix. There was obviously a point in time that today’s beloved traditional songs were “brand new”. Also, what will Christians do who only sing a certain set of songs when they get to heaven and sing a new song?

  The way our pastor put it (when announcing in a sermon that we will enjoy a mix of worshipful music and not argue about music choice), it can become a selfish thing. You may not enjoy organ music, but the person next to you may love it and may be having a worshipful experience. It’s such a self-centered thing to say, “I don’t like that music. I only want to be surrounded by things I like. Everything must be pleasing to me.” haha That is a very slippery slope to start down.
