I'm as conservative as they come, but I'm ok with this "weird" thing. I love New York City, precisely because there is a surprise around every corner. Walk down into the "real" Manhattan, away from Midtown, and you never know what sensory delight awaits you. I'm ok with a concerted effort to be an interesting city, but I would hate to see this movement become a caricature of itself. Weirdness for the sake of weirdness will just come across as phony, and won't last the test of time.
I just happened to check back in on this site after a long, delightful layoff, and what do my eyes behold, but this whopper from Alprova, "Republicans were hired two years ago to right all the wrongs with our economy, and what do they continue to focus on? Anything and everything but..."
Wow, what unabashed falsehood we have before us here. This line would far more accurately read, "Obama was hired 4.5 years ago to right all the wrongs with our economy, and what does he continue to focus on? Anything and everything but..."
Al, that may be your weakest tea yet pal.
This cartoon is nothing more or less than an accurate depiction of Obamerica. When Barry was re-elected, I said on this site (look it up if you wish) that the "haves" will continue to have, and the have nots will continue to, well, have not. This is ringing true in reality.
Mickelson never should have apologized for his comments. I guess he's just too nice a guy...
Nobody should ever, ever apologize for wanting to hold onto more of what they rightfully earn. The fact that our Government thinks it can reach as deep into our pockets as it already does is scary.

Bennett Archive: Gun Safety
tifosi inquired "If guns don't kill people, why do we give people guns when they go to war? Why don't we just send people?"
Uhh, because the bad guys (i.e. the bastards whose asses we are going to kick) have guns. Next question.

Guns don't kill people, large liberal, pro-gun control, Aftrican American, pissed off, ex-LAPD cops do!
Phil Mickelson's tax concerns make sense
"Many supporters of higher taxes do pay them. Morals play no part."
Sure they do, but not the rates they want others to pay! Morals absoulutely play a part. Ever heard of coveting someone else's property?

Phil Mickelson's tax concerns make sense
You're right conservative. The fact that supporters of high taxes don't pay them in the first place makes it all the more amoral.
Phil Mickelson's tax concerns make sense
As long as I live, I will never understand a private-sector human being who defends confiscatory tax rates.

Nice post at 3:37, Alprova. Praying for your family's healing in this time of loss.
