So, Republicans Would Be Okay with a Muslim Employer Using Sharia Law in the Workplace

After all, no religious based employer should be forced by the government to go against its own religious and moral teachings, correct?

So, Romney Visited A Glass Factory Today in Ohio

After the visit, he was seen calling his former colleagues at Bain, saying, "Yes! there's still a factory here in Ohio! How did we fucking miss this one?! This place should have been in China!!"

I Dreamt That the Univ. of Tenn's Law School Was Trying To Recruit Me

They flew me down to the campus, and they were putting the hard sell on me. They were pressuring me to go there.

Man, Nyquil is a hell of a drug.

I've Decided to Travel to Amsterdam later this Year

And, yes, I want to visit the coffee shops. I plan on being there for 4 days.

Can anyone make any suggestions on where I should go?

Dear America, Gas Prices Are Going to Rise No Matter Who Is President of the U.S.

You can elect Marvin the Martian to be president, and you're still going to pay high prices at the pump. Look at the calendar. It's not 1957 anymore. It's 2012, and you're living in a global economy, and you're competing with billions of people around for oil and gas.

I highly suggest that we start building modern, and sophisticated public transportation systems. High speed rail, hi-tech buses, and other imaginative mass public transportation systems.

I know the suburban sprawl arguments against public transportation. However, you're either going to live closer together and develop better public transportation systems or shut and get use to paying ever increasing higher gas prices.

And, no, voting Republican is not going to fucking cut your gas bill.

That is all.

Big Corp. Media Desperately Wants Romney to Get The Nomination

They desperately want Romney because he has a ton of money, and his super pac will also spend money. And, what will they spend money on? TV advertising.

Neither Rick nor Newt have a lot of money, and they won't spend nearly as much money on TV advertising.

Yahoo Health's Worst Burger: Chili's Southern Smokehouse Bacon Burger





Think of every high-fat, high-sodium, and high-calorie topping, and this one's got it: maple bacon, smoked cheddar, mayonnaise, crispy onion strings, and ancho-chile barbecue sauce. With fries, the meal has 2,290 calories and more fat and sodium than you should consume in two days: 139 grams of fat (211% of the proper daily intake), 46 grams of saturated fat (230%), and a bloodcurdling 6,500 milligrams of sodium (271%).

Like Whitney Houston, Judy Garland Also Died at 48

And that's only one of the many similarities between the two.
