Mike Bowers says he is a different man today than he was 30 years ago, when he went to the U.S. Supreme Court to keep Georgia’s sodomy ban alive. Bowers talks with BuzzFeed News about religious liberty bills, marriage equality, and the 1986 sodomy ban case that bears his name. View this image › The […]
http://twitter.com/#!/ashwindeshmukh/status/362403491739746304 Once again, Twitter was prescient (when it comes to the part about dancing around “slutbag”). http://twitter.com/#!/ryanjreilly/status/362393918366679041 Perhaps the Times could go with “trollopy tote”? “Strumpet’s satchel”? http://twitter.com/#!/DavidClinchNews/status/362394457238274049 And find out we did. Here’s how the New York Times handled its write-up on Barbara Morgan, the Weiner aide who vomited a stream of dehumanizing slurs […]
http://twitter.com/#!/NolteNC/status/256787729642315777 In today’s White House Press Briefing, Jay Carney embarked on some mind-blowing intellectual acrobatics. Unfortunately for him, he failed to stick the landing. He failed miserably. Among his bizarre assertions was that when Joe Biden said last night that the Obama Administration was never informed of security concerns at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, […]
You’re going to need to know this stuff before you’re someone’s old man. 1. When you’re out and about with your kid — but not your partner — someone will probably ask if you’re “babysitting.” View this image › Flickr: donotlick / Via Creative Commons You’ll want to say, “Actually, it’s called ‘parenting’ when it’s […]
When an animal becomes sick, it’s easy to marginalize their needs by saying, “It’s not like it’s a human.” That harsh outlook fails to recognize the incredible gift of joy, love, and happiness so many animals bring to so many lives. This group of animals were all discovered while seriously down on their luck and […]
Panhandlers are, sadly, a common part of society. If you live in a city, you probably see them every day and just walk on by. If you didn’t read their signs, you may have missed some hidden gems that will put a smile on your face (and maybe some money in their pockets). If you see […]
Just because something is cute, that doesn’t mean it wants to be friends with you. Actually, because something is cute, it’s probably sick of us big weird humans going “AWWW” and trying to pet it. I like to think that after several millennia of this happening, evolution granted them ways of getting out of aggressive cuddling, […]
http://twitter.com/#!/zhanover/status/398886664036433920 Oh dear. Kentucky Democrat Alison Grimes is hoping to defeat incumbent Senator Mitch McConnell come election time, and she (or her handlers) evidently decided that this would be the way to win over potential voters and Second Amendment supporters: http://twitter.com/#!/AlisonForKY/status/398877701605306369 Unfortunately for Ms. Grimes, all that photo accomplished does is confirm that Dems who […]
http://twitter.com/#!/tedfrank/status/223024255980408832 Oh, good grief! President Obama is still whining, and lying, about being outspent. As Twitchy reported, President Obama started up the whine-machine last month when he claimed he could be “the first president in modern history to be outspent in his re-election campaign.” He has revved up the whine-machine even more the past couple […]
http://twitter.com/#!/billmaher/status/236567401490173952 The return of “Real Time with Bill Maher” to HBO tonight promises to raise as many questions as it answers. For example, is that show still on? Did it go somewhere? Does anyone really find Bill Maher funny? We heard from Maher earlier today, where he was practicing his peculiar brand of “post-racial” humor, […]
