Congressman Insists Some Women Itching For A Good Rape
Rep. Akin should have just flat out said that a number of women lie about being raped. Too bad the masses are not as outraged and sickened that there are those that kill the unborn as they are regarding this legislator's faulty biology lesson.

A Maryland county is enacting a law that would equip school buses with cameras to document motorists violating assorted traffic laws in the vicinity of these educational transport vehicles. All well and good. But will there also be cameras recording these public servants driving like bats out of Ghenna?

What is one defining as a “good work”? Shouldn’t every day you go to work unless you are involved in some inherently immoral occupation be considered doing good works? Some will respond that such deeds cannot be considered such because one is compensated monetarily for such labor. By such a definition, nothing done by a member of the professional clergy can be considered a good work since such hirelings are receiving compensation for their ministry efforts.
Isn't heaping condemnation upon those that struggle with social anxiety, the dislike of crowds, and the like for not being fanatic church attenders the same as passing disparaging judgment upon the dimwitted for not having read hundreds of books or pursing higher level degrees? Should the non-scholastic have their devotion to Christ called into question or is that just for those not under the surveillance of prying ecclesiastical operatives.

What Else Would Drudge Like Done The Red Chinese Way?
However, at that point in the games, did a few more gold medals with other medal counts being near equal with the United States constitute "Domination"?
Perhaps Drudge ought to emphasize the price in terms of human dignity and liberty expended to achieve that slight advantage.
As someone that depends on the free flow of ideas and unhindered access to the Internet, one would think Mr. Drudge would be a little more guarded in his enthusiasm for the Red Chinese way of doing things.
It is a shame. Olympic officials and enthusiasts fly into an outrage over a number of athletes realizing that the way to get ahead might not be by really putting their best foot forward; yet very little is done to condemn a system that produces athletes in facilities barely better than high tech slave labor camps where the parents of the inmates are so afraid of diminishing the glory of the state that they conceal the hardships and tragedies befalling family members.

Thoughts On Vice Presidential Selection
Because if he serves even two terms in the Romney Administration, he will only be about 50 years old.
That is well below the mid 70's or even early 80's he would compel the remainder of us to toil to probably if he has his way.
At least Romney didn't select Maro Rubio.
If he did, all we would have heard about is an Hispanic who is technically no darker than the average Italian, Jew, or even run of the mill Caucasian with a good tan.
In one ABC Radio News account of the Sikh Temple Shooter Wade Michael Page, there was no other point to the story than that the mass murderer was unfriendly prior to the incident. No other evidence was given in the broadcast version. The online version provided the clarification that, about a week after moving into his apartment, "Page's smiles went away." So how much pandering and catering to the neighbors is now required to prevent one from being added to law enforcement or intelligence agency watchlist? I suppose it is also up to the discretion of the neighbors whether or not Michael Savage or Ann Coulter can be displayed on your bookshelf without the action triggering a Waco style raid.
Ugly Mexican Syndrome
The customer was informed that he could not be understood.
The customer then called his supervisor who then proceeded to chew out my associate how disrespectful it was for service not to be rendered in Spanish.
We constantly hear about the "Ugly American Syndrome".
Is about high time we had an awareness campaign of the "Ugly Mexican Syndrome".
