Texas again… chlamydia outbreak in high school that teaches preaches abstinence.
It’s sad that the adults know less about sex than the kids. :smack:
I am so hoping the judge subpoenas God and Jesus.
Lindsey Graham is setting the tone of his presidential campaign:
“Everything that starts with ‘Al’ in the Middle East is bad news,” said U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, a Republican from South Carolina at an AIPAC dinner in Boston on Monday. “Al-Qaida, Al-Nusra, Al-Qaida in the Arab Peninsula,” said the senator, who may be running for president.
Oh, there’s a new epithet about the President:
On the Friday edition of his show, Wiles attacked the “uncircumcised philistine in the White House” along with the “adoring, obedient, subservient, lapdog news reporters” who attended the dinner. (In 1 Samuel, David refers to Goliath as the “uncircumcised philistine” who seeks to “defy the armies of the living God”).
Just thought you’d want to know.
septimus:
The U.S. Constitution? Is that relevant to Texas? After all, the State Guard emblem has gold fringe on it. #28 . Is it just expressing hatred for California, state #31 ?)
BTW, “Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) suggested Tuesday his successor went too far in deploying state troops to oversee a U.S. military training exercise some fear is part of a plot to take over the southwest.” He’s not even a declared candidate and is already abandoning his base to pick up votes from the rational center? Good luck with that, Ricky.

Rick Perry – RICK PERRY – is the Voice of Reason in Texas right now. The mind boggles.
[Quote=Lindsey Graham]
Everything that starts with ‘The’ in North America is bad news. The Ohio State University, The Bad News Bears (see? It’s right there in the name!!!), The Upper Peninsula of Michigan…

She’s claiming to be their “ambassador”, which seems a little presumptuous.
I am imagining the level of facepalming Judge Gerrard engaged in while reading this. It must have been continuous and epic.

And Al Franken is usually bad news for Republicans, whether he’s travelling or not.
In fairness, Graham also said an uncharacteristically reasonable thing the other day:
Things are changing, so at the end of the day, being for traditional marriage without animosity is where I stand. If the Supreme Court rules sometime this year that same-sex marriage bans are unconstitutional, then that will be a defining moment in that debate. It will be time for us to move forward as a society.
Yes, he can be reasonable at times, when he thinks it’s safe - although he thought he had to be cautious aboutopposing armed insurrection and a new Civil War:
Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz’s argument that the Second Amendment provides the “ultimate check against government tyranny” is a bit too extreme for potential 2016 rival and fellow Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC).
“Well, we tried that once in South Carolina. I wouldn’t go down that road again,” Graham said, in an apparent reference to the Civil War. “I think an informed electorate is probably a better check than, you know, guns in the streets.”
Speaking to a few reporters near the Senate floor Thursday, Graham was answering questions from TPM about the Texas firebrand and presidential candidate’s argument made in a fundraising email that the Second Amendment confers a right to revolt against the government.
So there’s that.
And, about gay marriage, he seems to be hoping it will be safe to come out some day, but that day is not this day.
Well, what about those Commies who just yesterday staged a coup in al Berta? Those fiends have at least two roads across the border that are wholly unguarded, they could invade Montana and we would never know it. (I mean, we would never know it .)

She should run in the Republican primary. She’d fit right in.
eschereal the seriously twisted:

Montana? That’s in Nebraska, right?
