"Within hours of the decision, the ACLU, one of initial advocates of
Religious Freedom Restoration Act, were backing away from the law. The
group wants RFRA to be limited 'so that it cannot be used as a defense
for discrimination.'"

It's not just balls and strikes. There aren't many plays in sports more exciting than a play at the plate. Penalty shots in hockey (not after overtime, but awarded in-play) and onside kicks are really all I can think of.

That human element of the umpire just losing his shit and calling the guy out with an awesome 'yer out!' move... that's just great.

I may be the only person left who opposes instant replay in baseball. The one thing umps CONSISTENTLY get wrong is strike zones, but it's the one area that's still supposed to be sacred. Personally I don't care if they get 1% or 10% of the tag plays wrong. The game would be exponentially better if there was an understandable strike zone that players could count on EVERY freakin' time they take the field.


As it is, you get clown shows like Joe West who seems to revel in making everyone else in the park guess what he's going to call next. Low and away? Sure, that's a strike. Curveball that breaks high to low IN the zone? Gosh, with all that movement, who can tell. Ball!

Give the Horde a cookie. We collectively called this long ago.

And this is the primary reason I'm against government sanction of homosexual relationships. Once you assert that marriage is something mankind just made up and could have made however we wished, then there is no defense against a whole host of ills: polyamory, incest, pedophilia, bestiality, necrophilia. Every perverted, abhorrent thing becomes not just "tolerated" (even those things, such as pedophilia, which should not even be tolerated), but celebrated.

The societal consequences will be enormous, whatever the idiots say. Yes, it will hurt the institution of marriage. Yes, it will hurt children. Yes, it will hurt society. Just because you can't see it yet doesn't mean it won't do it.

Then Loesch challanged the CoC to release the questionnaire that LaHood and Flynn were asked to complete

Because Flynn crapped all over it in his responses

and LaHood agreed to support TPA and Amnesty, CoC biggest agenda items before Congress

Uhhhhh... I admitted, I've never actually caught that by context, and following the AoSHQ rulebook I have not google.b.evil'd the term (laziness may have played a part in that). I would never admit my ignorance in public, though, for fear of looking foolish.

It was much more focused on the tech than that sort of thing -- another subject entirely.

But I will note I agree when it is the subject. And add that they're not even imaginative enough to just blame it on a vacuum. China wouldn't be fking around in the South China Sea if the USA hadn't left the Phillippines, for example. Seems to me they could "intelligently" discuss that sort of thing without impugning Obama or even Dubya.

Yes, I took up the name when, a couple years ago, some idiot started trying to trash people like me, people who believe in the Tenth Amendment and Federalism, and think that the States should actually be handling things much more than they are.

They meant it as an epithet. I decided to wear it as a badge of honor.

91 Once you assert that marriage is something mankind just made up and could have made however we wished, then there is no defense against a whole host of ills...

Allen, it's not just marriage. The conservative philosophy goes way beyond that.

I'm thinking of an undergrad Econ course I took. The prof was a serious, serious lefty, so much so that he'd make Marx blush. The course was something to do with comparative economic systems and theory or some bullshit title like that.

He was going on a rant one day about wealth and resource distribution. He said, flat out, that there was no 'natural' or 'moral' component to such a thing...it can be whatever we want it to be, and whatever we want it to be would definitely work, because we are humans and smart and we make our own world. Obviously, in his opinion, that things are unfair is because sinister forces are conspiring to keep it unfair to people.

This is the liberal mindset in a nutshell...the prescriptions aren't faulty, but rather are constrained by sinister forces.

So when gay "marriage" doesn't turn out to be the panacea for social ills that the Left thinks it will be, well, in their opinion it will be due to criminal actions, not a deficiency in the liberal philosophy itself.

This business has been around in the San Francisco area forever and a day. Imported into the local hetero scene from the gay world.

Human nature being what it is, poly relationships work until they stop working, and then they blow up *spectacularly*.

You haven't seen bitter jealous resentment until you've seen it from a self-described "open-minded, nonjudgmental" individual.

I know relatively few truly durable long term poly arrangements. Typically people experiment with it and ultimately either end up in a lasting monogamous setup, or back to short-time floating hookups.

Number 1 was to a complete low life scum who had been married twice before and had 3 kids already. Senor Classy started cheating on her when she was 6 months pregnant and left her shortly thereafter.

The guy she married last year had also been married before and has 1 kid. He got divorced because his ex-wife had cheated on him.

This is what marriage has become today. Which is why the anti-SSM argument of "OMG HEY MARRIAGE IS GOING TO DESTROY THE SANCTITY OF MARRIAGE!!" is 100% pure bullshit.

Bush recalled his own efforts "to do something politically incorrect" and remove a flag with the Confederate symbol from outside the Florida state house when he was governor there. "The symbols were racist," Bush said.

Posted by: Adirondack Patriot at June 30, 2015 09:39 AM


Flatulent Neon were one of the more under-rated of the early 70s Krautrock bands. Taking the avant-classical teachings of Karlheinz Stockhausen and melding that with the outlandish, heavily improvised psychedelia of the American west coast scene, Flatulent Neon created the template for better known bands such as Agitation Free, Ash Ra Tempel and early Tangerine Dream.

I recommend their debut album, Rockmusiksession and the follow-up, Krautrockmusiksupersession1972.

Intended to address just that difficulty, by making marriage no longer a quickly exited "no-fault" arrangement.

I finally gave up on my job as a reporter when our daughter was 9 months old. We bought a nice house in the suburbs. And I started my descent into Desperate, Frumpy Housewife of Apex, North Carolina. I had a few good friends through a peaceful parenting group I joined, but for the most part, I was home alone with a toddler, washing dishes, doing laundry and cleaning way too many toilets (a family of three does not need three bathrooms). My neighbors were deathly boring with too many cars and too nicely manicured lawns. They were all so uptight from their boring jobs and I now realize sexual frustration.

269 "Carter, Clinton. Southern/Border Dem Govs that beat a handwringing Republican. Don't know if the Dems have anyone like that on their bench ATM, but if they do, they'd be a lock."

Consider the Carter and Clinton histories.

Carter made an explicit (and successful) ploy in 1976 to lure in religiously and socially conservative Democrats by loudly touting his Christianity, and making comments superficially critical of _Roe_, while of course privately assuring liberal backers that he intended to defend _Roe_.

Clinton prominently executed a retarded black guy to prop up his New Democrat, tough-on-crime credentials. Attacked "Sister Souljah" over rap lyrics. Printed up the now infamous Confederate-flag Clinton-Gore buttons. And (hat tip to Christopher Hitchens) bought a ton of radio ad space to tout his support for the Defense of Marriage Act.

Not thinking that it would be possible to get away with comparable flim-flam in today's hypercaffeinated identity-politics environment.

Then again, I look at what Obama got away with.

339 Was I Wrong To Support Gay Marriage


That's a great article that covers practically everything pretty well. Here's my 2 cents to add:


He missed that this is a huge betrayal for for persons like himself who had good intentions.

1) For anybody who was sincere about seeking "acceptance", we now have "acceptance with a gun pointed at your head". Which is not only NOT acceptance, but makes acceptance virtually impossible. And not only virtually impossible, but PERMANENTLY virtually impossible. Some who were accepting must feel duped, and are less so. So it's a step BACKWARDS, with a brick wall erected to impede moving forward. They just look like frauds now.

2) I do not see marriage as being religiously defined, but as a obvious and necessary civil function. It's basically the "factory" that churns out the next generation. As such same-sex couples are INHERENTLY, physically, biologically, literally and OBVIOUSLY NOT THE EXACT SAME THING as opposite-sex couples - they cannot produce children, under ANY circumstances. Since the SCOTUS has decreed that they are the exact same thing, they're in denial of REALITY (not just religious traditions!), and any legal framework that recognizes reality, while recognizing rights, is impossible now. So it's a step backwards that way.

3) I'm putting it simply: Gay people have gone from being the folks with the harmless abnormality, who have been unfairly discriminated against forever, to being the folks with the crazy friends who are intent on destroying the country.

In summary, they've gone from being a libertarian cause to being people married to the enemies of libertarianism - the statists. Call it a secular version of turning to the devil.

352 As far as division of possessions, I'd suggest you consult sharia law.

Pretty sure women aren't allowed to own much of anything. But aren't the brides generally sold by their fathers? Do they have to give the goat back?

353 in fact one of their fights is about him wanting her to find a job after she quit work

Ah...she had this baby with him, and tried to turn him into her husband without his asking. Which doesn't work. An offer of marriage is a sign of commitment to her, which she never got. She can't do things backwards and expect it to work.

Ironic that the lefties were pushing The Handmaid's Tale as the future the socons want, but it's the ghey left that will bring it about if it happens.

Truth. And that was the dumbest book ever. AND! I read somewhere that whatsherface wrote it after seeing the women in Iran (or another ME country), but adapted it to Christians where it plainly doesn't fit at all. What a cluster that book is.

Then, one day, I was reading through my conspiracy theory websites a pastime to keep the boredom at bay and came across this article about the conspiracy of monogamy. The basic message was that monogamy is not natural or healthy and that its been pushed on us since the advent of agriculture, private property and patriarchy, to keep things streamlined and simple for our overlords.

I dug into the work of Dr. James Prescott. His articles The Truth About Sexual Monogamy and Sexual Monogamy and Violence Against Woman and Body Pleasure and the Origins of Violence intrigued and amazed me.

"At least that's how it works for the majority of people who will be engaging in polygamy here in the US when it becomes legal. ..."


I'm not a lawyer, but I'd say it already IS legal. The decision was based in "equality under the law". Making polygamy illegal is discrimination against married people, ergo polygamy is legal.

Obviously that also applies to related people, so incest is now legal too.

And lonely people too. It's now legal to marry yourself.

"F'NO!!! I see where you're going! They're NOT Islamic!"

"Mr. Cameron, over half the Muslims in your country are sympathetic to the Charlie Hebdo terrorists. When Drummer Rigby was beheaded they stood by and did nothing. Yet you clasp your hands and look beseechingly at them saying, 'you guys recoil every time you hear the words Islamic State, right? Right?' Why don't you go seek them out and beg them to behead you, if that is your wish, but to put innocent Britons in harm's way, like the Rotherham girls, is despicable.

"I keep coming back to Ernst Rohm and the SA.

You got me looking up who that was, whic was interesting. I guess the idea is that he was one of the Nazis key people, loyal leader of their most brutal enforcement forces, and was they betrayed.

Well, OK, I see some similarity, but there's an important distinction that he did NOT have good intentions before he was betrayed, and the people he was helping were evil by definition (it wasn't that some were evil and some weren't).

As to your second paragraph, I might not go as far as say "ruthless", but you're spot on with the rest. The "angry" and "vengeful" parts are evident by the way they rejected the Civil Union compromise that would have given them what they wanted - they had to have it in a way that was "in your face" vs the churches, and they had the churches in their sites before they were even done with their "in your face" celebrating. Oh, one more point.

"This is what marriage has become today. Which is why the anti-SSM
argument of "OMG HEY MARRIAGE IS GOING TO DESTROY THE SANCTITY OF
MARRIAGE!!" is 100% pure bullshit.
"

You are missing the point.

Marriage has been under attack by the regular culture for a long time. No-fault divorce, etc. etc.

The societal purpose of marriage is to foster stable, child-producing, largely self-reliant (i.e. trades with the rest of society, rather than leeching from the rest of society).

Many previous developments have been damaging to marriage and family.

Homosexuals and now the State demanding that homosexual shacking-ups be accorded the same respect as marriage was originally given is twisted nonsense, and it further weakens an already damaged institution that has heretofore been one of the foundational institutions of Western Civ.

Apparently your belief is that because marriage has been poorly treated by some
of it's traditional practitioners, we should just shrug at the efforts
of idiots and deviants to smash it to pieces.

Claiming that deviancy that does not even remotely serve the original societal intent of marriage must now also be called marriage and given the same respect as the original in fact does undermine the sanctity of the original. Your opinion is what is 100% bs.
