Flynt may have won a court case but there‘s a big difference between being able to do something because it’s legal and actually doing the right thing (AKA taking the high ground).
This never happened during my rugby games! I have to applaud the player’s “restraint”…using a textbook rugby tackle, instead of unleashing a vicious hit and knocking Goldilocks out.
This is total crap and I’m glad the alumni are putting up a fight. The same thing happened at my alma mater during my first and second years. I attended Miami University (aka Miami of Ohio). When I entered the school we were known as the “Redskins”. Now, that name may sound demeaning but the interesting twist was that the actual Miami Indian Tribe (for which the school and former mascot are named) saw the name “Redskins” as a badge of honor (sidenote: anyone who is of Miami tribe lineage can attend Miami U for free!).
Midway through the football season my second year, the name was changed to the “RedHawks”. There is no link that I know of between a redhawk and the school’s history. I argued that if a name change was coming, we should have gone the way of William & Mary and been renamed the “Tribe”. Instead, there are a large group of alums, myself included, who will not wear anything that says RedHawks on it. Case in point, my baseball cap – I ripped out the stitching in the back that said RedHawks.
This PC nonsense has to stop and I’m glad there are pockets of resistance to it!
Another Lefty playing the Race Card again. It’s so sad that the Liberal playbook is this predictable. At this point, this guy is just so far “off the reservation” that he’s off the map.
I don’t know why I expected different…I guess this just makes it “official”. How can a 3rd generation Lebanese Maronite (the Lebanese Catholic church for those who don’t know), and that would be me, get that this is all wrong, yet American Jews (on the whole) still support the President??? I’m sure Rashid Kalidi “advised” BHO on the stance that he should take.
To Israelis who may be reading this, the American people are with you despite what our President says.

Biden Comes Unhinged in Angry Ohio Speech: ‘They Dont Get Us!’

He definitely went off the deep end…but having said that, he was in my hometown, and this speech might actually resonate with the people there.
See MSNBC‘s Chris Matthews Bomb at ’Jeopardy’

I can’t stop laughing my A$$ off!!!! I guess we’ll chalk that up as poetic justice.
And Mr. Matthews, the capital of Turkey is Ankara, not Istanbul…so you were wrong on two counts. Everyone is now dumber for having listened to you.
Occupy San Fran Seizes UC Berkeley Farm (and There Are Wacky Pictures)

I’m trying to work through the irony of occupiers “taking over” a communal farm…..then again it’s California, what else should we expect?

Just more evidence that Kathy Griffin has ZERO talent. Some say she’s a “has been”, I say that she was a “never was”.

That’s OK. Ohio still has Great Lakes brewing, which is still an American company…and they make some pretty good craft brews.
