Don't forget, Indiana also just convicted a woman of killing her fetus when she tried to commit suicide:

So in the end, it was definitely the business interests that made the difference and not the human rights interests. I guess I'm not surprised, but I hope people there remember that if they think about bragging about how they pulled it together to keep this law from happening.

You didn't think human rights issues would have any impact on republican politicians did you?

I'd love for American conservatism to finally tear itself apart because of gay rights. It would be almost poetic.

I don't think that is what will do it if Civil Rights for black people didn't.

Quote of the morning, "What's going on right now between us and Israel used to be accompanied by a kiss on the cheek and thirty pieces of silver. We're truly looking at a Pontius Pilate President." ~ Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA).


(Don't think about his analogy too long. It makes no sense.)

It makes sense. Gosh. Netanyahu is Jesus and Obama is washing his hands of him leaving his fate to the evil 9 year olds playing on the beech in Gaza.

It was going to be VERY hard for Tom Cotton to be bigger piece of poo poo than the person he replaced in the senate but he's doing it... Kudos.

NYT has a graphic up of how much water is being used in California. Unexpectedly, gated communities of rich old whites are using the most.



Big ag is using all the water. Everything else is a rounding error.

Has this been posted? Cause it's glorious:

Hannity's such a twat.

A Tom Cotton trigger warning should be attached to this video. Pat Buchanan makes more sense on FP than a ton of democrats which is pretty sad.

quote:

Loretta Lynch is still waiting to be confirmed as attorney general, and her allies are hoping a hunger strike will do the trick.
The advocacy group founded by the Rev. Al Sharpton, along with female civil-rights leaders, are launching the hunger strike – where groups of fasters will alternate days abstaining from food until Lynch is confirmed to replace Eric Holder at the Justice Department. Dubbed “Confirm Loretta Lynch Fast,” the new tactic is designed in the mold of civil rights leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi and Cesar Chavez, organizers said.



Are you kidding me? Of all the things to have a hunger strike about, getting a center-right lawyer a better job should be WAY down on the list...
