Re: “Whose Faith & Values Is The Tennessean Covering?

Yawn. Bitching about "the Christians" is like bitching about the rain. It makes good conversation but means nothing.

Re: “Whose Faith & Values Is The Tennessean Covering?

So Betsy, instead of whining about what the Tennessean is doing or not doing, why not do the article you think they should have done?

>>Not that its my job to do your googling<<

A) *I* didn't make the claim CA was well off.

B) Your link won't work for me, it freezes on my computer.

Re: “Boy Scouts Polling Members About Gays

All pederasts are gay. That is a fact. Read this column about what is happening in our military: http://bit.ly/YIUmTf

We now have more men raped by men than women raped by men. The future of the BSA?

>>as trolls like bobsguns<<

Go fuck yourself, Mr. Allen. Just because many don't drink the libtard Kool-Aid doesn't mean we're trolls. Once AGAIN a libtard proves free speech is only what a libtard agrees with.

Did I mention you could go fuck yourself?

The Cato Institute, xray/zoombah/gasttheMIA/vladtheoozriddledleeper, is THAT your source? That is akin to consulting Dr. Joseph Mengele about medical ethics! Your previous Wall Street article is based on OPINION from the business (investment) perspective. Considering government is NOT a business, but a service based NOT FOR PROFIT, their POV is rather skewed. That being said, admittedly California (where I have lived also in the past and operated a business for 3 years) is having financial difficulties. In NO small part due to it's extremist Direct Democracy concept, ignoring the benefit of a Democratic-Republic.

Re: “Is There Really That Large a Market of Men Who Are Afraid They're Bad in Bed?

I call you a jerk because you're a jerk. Period. Don't care if you like it or not. We're not friends.

@More cowbell: The bankers didn't ruin the economy, the freakin government did. The bankers were dealing with cards from the government's deck. Read this (takes ten minutes): http://www.cato.org/pubs/journal/cj30n2/cj… It's factual and it follows exactly what I learned day by day watching CNBC (money channel) during the meltdown. (CNBC was good about reporting facts and keeping spin out of their summaries.) When you get done reading you'll have an equivalent of a Masters on the meltdown. I can't believe all the BS people believe about the causes and effects of the situation. Of course, you may want to stay dumb - many do - but that's your prerogative. P.S. Million dollar bonuses have nothing to do with the situation. The banker's compensation may piss you off but the bonuses were contractual - legal - obligations. Unlike GM and GMAC, Wall Street bankers have paid back TARP money with interest.

@OMFUG: I lived in California many years and referendums have nothing to do with their current situation. Check out that link I provided in the previous comment and you'll see that nearly all the badly run states are blue, blue, blue and nearly all the well run states are red. Maybe there's a message in the order of their listing. Hmmmm....
