Chimera:
Like the 'Moral Majority", ‘majority’ is a word they use to convince themselves that pretty much everyone thinks like they do, they’re just being repressed by the evil people on the other side of the issue.
Worked for the Bolsheviks.

She’s that rare person who can graduate with a liberal arts degree without having read a single book, or having absorbed any of that which was taught. A Teflon-covered blank slate, if you will, upon which nothing may be writ.
Oh. A Communications major.
Motivated seller.
The citizens of Utah have such specific, maybe illegal, tastes they have to pay for porn, or are they just dumb?
dropzone:
Oh.
Not much of a market for exposed ankles.
Shit, used to be, you could smuggle in full color ads of young women modeling bras for K-Mart, sell them on the street in Salt Lake City for twenty bucks!

“America is at her best when she is lying down with her back on the mattress, thinking about England.”
Uncle Sam identifies as a woman?
Well, before Uncle Sam there was Lady Columbia.
And before either, there was Brother Jonathan – usually represented as a dour black-clad Puritan or Quaker preacher, signifying American religiosity as seen by British cartoonists.

Let’s just say Uncle Sam better choose carefully when using a public bathroom in North Carolina.

The transcript of the Paladino interview is up on NPR.org . He was being interviewed by David Greene. Notice that Greene didn’t even ask about Obama:
PALADINO:
President of the wonder of history? What does this even mean? I know they are english words, but they don’t make any sense
“Wonder” is not only a verb, as in “The Seven Wonders of the World”. So long as he doesn’t say its “unConstitutional”, there won’t be a problem.

Wednesday, Paul LePage vetoed a bipartisan bill that would have allowed pharmacists to dispense Narcan without a prescription to people
His stated reason is that the drug does not save lives,
The man is a joke, but it isn’t a funny one.
Spineless politically correct Idaho Republicans refuse to pass law giving life-saving medical treatments to children in faith-healing cults.
Mariah Walton’s voice is quiet – her lungs have been wrecked by her illness, and her respirator doesn’t help. But her tone is resolute.
“Yes, I would like to see my parents prosecuted.”
Why?
“They deserve it.” She pauses. “And it might stop others.”
Mariah is 20 but she’s frail and permanently disabled. She has pulmonary hypertension and when she’s not bedridden, she has to carry an oxygen tank that allows her to breathe. At times, she has had screws in her bones to anchor her breathing device. She may soon have no option for a cure except a heart and lung transplant – an extremely risky procedure.
All this could have been prevented in her infancy by closing a small congenital hole in her heart. It could even have been successfully treated in later years, before irreversible damage was done. But Mariah’s parents were fundamentalist Mormons who went off the grid in northern Idaho in the 1990s and refused to take their children to doctors, believing that illnesses could be healed through faith and the power of prayer.

According to the Utah state representative who introduced the anti-porn resolution,: The existence of internet porn violates the First Amendment because he doesn’t have the right to not watch it.
“Someone may have the First Amendment right, according to the U.S. Supreme Court, to view pornography,” Weiler told Tony Perkins, host of “Washington Watch” radio show. “But what about my First Amendment right not to view it?”
At first, Weiler specifically blamed McDonald’s for having free WiFi that did not block porn sites. According to Weiler, kids often go to McDonald’s or public libraries to watch porn on their WiFi networks — especially if it’s blocked on their home internet.
“If these libraries and McDonald’s were delivering cigarettes to our children, we’d be picketing them,” he said.
Remind me not to visit McDonald’s the next time I’m in SLC.
Remember not to visit McDonalds next time you are near one . Unless, of course, you need to use their toilet.

To sum up:
“People might force me to watch porn, because think of the children!”
