For those of you who haven't figured out I really don't like Rick Santorum.

"And so to embrace her and to love her and to support her and get her through this very difficult time, I've always, you know, I believe and I think the right approach is to accept this horribly created - in the sense of rape - but nevertheless a gift in a very broken way, the gift of human life, and accept what God has given to you.

"As you know, we have to, in lots of different aspects of our life we have horrible things happen. I can't think of anything more horrible, but nevertheless, we have to make the best out of a bad situation and I would make the argument that that is making the best"


Shane may need to add a new award to his podcast called douche of the week. Seriously, I don't want to give Rick Santorum a response so much as a hatchet wound to the face. Make the best of that Rick.

of course, one must not forget the irony that on one hand, he is basically saying "accept this as it is" (for life, impregnation from rape, etc), cuz God supposedly said so, while on the other he thinks the opposite regarding homosexuality.

My aunt responded to my cousin Jimmy and tagged my name in it. It's a wall of fail.

QuoteI can't promise you anything but I do know that Dave Turcotte can probably give you all the information that you need. I can sum up my issue with Ron Paul quite easily. Some may call me a socialist, which is fine with me, because I believe... in educating our youth equitably through college, providing health care through a single payer system for every American, and providing good jobs with excellent wages for our people to better our communities, such as building bridges, keeping up roads, God damn, somebody pressure wash the cities of Chicago and New York!! Please! Give our young men jobs!!! They will immediately spend that money (you know they will) which will stimulate the economy. There is so much to do. Put kids in schools to help other kids! Pay kids to tutor each other, not to clean the damn schools! Are you kidding me? I could go on and on, but the bottom line is, I believe we should invest in Americans, not corporations!! And I am going to be honest Jim, I think many people supporting Ron Paul are spoiled. They sit in their homes and act as if we should just cut people off, it is just too bad. That is life, survival of the fittest and all that. I get that the system is messed up. Then get up and do something about it. Just like I think that you are a closet liberal, I don't think that the Ron Paul supporters that I know could be in the same room with a baby whose ear drum had burst because her mother didn't have health insurance and hear that baby cry. I would look to see how many nurses and teachers are supporting Ron Paul. They are on the front lines. As a teacher, I can tell you, it is not easy looking at kids and KNOWING that they do not have a fair hand at this life. This is America and we are better than that. How can anyone justify or even consider not investing in our people, our most valuable asset? Forget the water, the land and the air, but our people? I can't even consider Ron Paul philosophically and so I won't spend my time gathering info for you. I recommend you consider the viable candidates because this election is going to be here before you know it and we don't have any time to waste. I am going to spend my time helping Obama get elected and this time I going to be where the party is when he wins!!! ;)

Only if I get to do it first.

Wow, and I thought my aunt was bad...her daughter is worse!

QuoteDave, I don't think that we live in a free world, and I don't think we should. I think we SHOULD pay taxes. Computers were invented without the government, yes, but roads for rural Arkansas? I'm not saying that what we have is perfect, but ...I do think that everyone should have to pay into their country. Sorry I didn't answer earlier, but I'm at work...I think you're just missing the point. I think I should have to pay to help the homeless, those who have less than me, those who need a school where otherwise there wouldn't be a school.

That and while I disagree with his stance on abortion my biggest issue with what he said was the whole "make the best of it" nonsense. That's something you might say to a High School kid that gets a minor injury and has to miss a few games so maybe he should get ahead on his homework. Not something you should say to a woman that gets pregnant from being assaulted

So I unfriended my aunt and her daughter, but while I was checking my dad's facebook for him, I read more of the conversation that I had with them, and I just caught this horrible quote.

‎"Do you not think of human beings as natural resources that we should invest in and try to nurture."

Human beings are a natural resource?

That is something a sociopath would think!

QuoteThe honest and hard truth is, there is no such thing as an objective moral 'right' or 'wrong'. There are only actions which are, for one reason or another, acceptable or unacceptable to society at a given time. What was considered morally acceptable a few hundred years ago would not be acceptable today, and vice versa. Morality changes like the wind, because in fact it is not objective or qualifiable. To suggest that there is an a priori moral 'good' is Kantian pseudo-philosophy (i.e. theology) and nothing more.

A realist has to accept that there is no morality evident in nature. Each person and society makes their own moral standards.

For me, war is a part of human nature. It can be expressed honourably and nobly, or it can be expressed in the soulless styles of the modern world. But it will always be expressed one way or another... at least until we fundamentally alter the essential nature of our species.

Oy.....

That's the opposite extreme of this video response I just got: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXlmQWsBr4c

QuoteAtheism / Evolution Put Into Action! - Evolution debunked...Again. - 2012
If there was no ultimate moral giver or judge, claiming that evil or wrong behavior existed would be absurd. FYI, wrong behavior does exist.

I haven't even bothered to watch it. Doesn't seem like much point; yet another long-refuted argument presented yet again.
