Hey, he can be the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful poster AND be on ignore.

@VinylTurnip

Or maybe everyone but me has you on ignore.

Has who on ignore?

[Really_Not_All_That_Bright]

Iain M. Banks. He’s dead, so he won’t mind.

Bundy always seems to be talking with that bridge in the background. It’s obvious to me he lives under it.

I’m going to ignore that!

Evil Captor is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful poster I’ve ever known in my life.

“We were actually strategizing to put all the women up at the front,” said former Arizona sheriff Richard Mack, a Bundy ally. “If they are going to start shooting, it’s going to be women that are going to be televised all across the world getting shot by these rogue federal officers.”

Lest you worry too much about those women, Stephen Colbert pointed out they will protect them with a line of children.

The Ballad of Cliven Bundy

Brings a whole new meaning to the phrase, “Women and children first!”

I heard the radio talk show host this morning say that Bundy’s “unpolished” speech about black people wasn’t his fault; he’s an old farmer. The real blame belongs with the liberal media reporters who drove him past those black people sitting on their porch, knowing that he would provide them with some damning quotes they could use against all conservatives.

I swear to God, that was the actually spin I heard. I don’t know the guy’s name though - he’s the conservative talk show host here during the morning commute. I never listen to him but I got tired of another Ukraine story on NPR.

Does anyone know when he took his drive through north LA neighborhoods? I have a feeling it was 1970.

I swear, make one little mistake and the Gatorade buckets of love come pouring out all over your back. There is a guy in Nevada who needs to take mistake-making lessons from you.

Of course not. See, Republicans aren’t racist because old, white people aren’t guaranteed to be racist, until they say something racist at which point of course all old, white people are racist and you can’t judge them for it.

Ronald Reagan owns Cliven Bundy.

SC Senate candidate: “Women cause 95% of divorces because they love their children more than they love their husbands.” I guess if you don’t have kids then it might not be your fault?

You didn’t quote the best part:

“It is an abominable idolatry to love your children more than you love your husband, and it will ruin your marriage. And yet you blame it on him because he ran off with some other woman! He did run off with some other woman, and you packed his bags. All of his emotional bags, you packed for him. Is that true in every case? No, but it’s true in the vast preponderance of them.”

He described “abominable idolatry” as “unlawful worship” as he continued lecturing women.

“You just ran him off,” Bowers said. “You paid more attention to your children than you did to him. ‘Oh, he doesn’t need me?’ He needs you more than they do. He chose you, they didn’t. An abominable idolatry.”

I didn’t know “idolatry” was the result of putting someone ahead of my husband. He’ll be pleased to learn this, I think. Right up until I remind him I’m an atheist.

For a change, here’s a smart RIOTD: Rep. Michael Grimm (R-NY), formerly a climate-change skeptic, changed his mind after researching the issue.

Excuse me, I have to go wash some pigshit out of my hair.

McConnell’s Tea Party Challenger Caught Attending a Cockfighting Rally

Despite saying today he is against animal cruelty, earlier this month on WHAS radio Bevin again defended cockfighting, as well as dog fighting, by citing its historical roots in the state and in the nation’s founding.
“You look at cockfighting and dog fighting as well, this isn’t something new. It wasn’t invented in Kentucky for example,” Bevin said. “I mean the founding fathers were all, many of them, very actively involved in this and always have been. These things are part of a tradition and a heritage that go back for hundreds of years and were very integral early on in this country.”

Same-sex cockfighting. Doesn’t sound *that *bad.
