Comment on Just like someone from Lancaster to bring buttery popcorn to a meat thermometer fight by Cayusa

Cayusa — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 17:22:29 +0000

A shame that it happened, but I kind of wish it was the other way around. I’ve had my own run-ins with people who feel the need to chat on a cell phone during a movie. If anyone is going to get a meat thermometer stuck in their neck it should have been the lady talking on the cell phone.

No, I wasn’t going to, but they sent me an email informing me they credited my account $25.

Comment on Sarah Palin used to travel to Canada for icky, awful government health care by Ryan

Atleast now they don’t have to hustle across the border, they can just jump in her tour bus that has her face plastered on the side and cruise across in luxury, like any good Christian American would do.

I agree. Two words. FUCKING AMAZING! Between Whiplash and that scene with Iron and War Machine in the middle of those villans the trailer looks absolutely incredible.

Comment on Ben Roethlisberger is once again accused of sexual assault by Rick

Rick — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 18:19:12 +0000

@Ryan:

Yes, that “bad situation” being having sex in a ladies room of a dance club. I imagine it would be really hard to put a positive spin on that one, even if it wasn’t rape.

Comment on Ben Roethlisberger is once again accused of sexual assault by Ryan

I believe that regardless of whether or not Roethlisbergersonmanvillewitz raped these women, he certainly does seem to be putting himself in bad situations.

Comment on In Christopher Hadley’s own words by Ryan

Ryan — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 03:50:20 +0000

June, what would have happened if Hadley’s appetite for young women had been fed enough of these comics and he got to the point where he wanted something more? You think giving an alcohilic some beer is going to help cure their problem? I’m pretty sure giving a pedophile some material isn’t going to help them curb their appetite. The only thing I can see coming out of people like Hadley having that kind of material is them eventually getting to the point where they actually do something.

Nobody asked you to condone his comics. People are tired of control freaks in government going after peaceful people. I don’t care about drawings and pictures, I care about actions; and he never hurt anyone. Get ready for more political prisoners in the system because some prosecutors only care about popularity.

Comment on Joseph Stack was a terrorist by Ryan

Ryan — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 03:27:02 +0000

Only Barack Hussein Obama “pals around with terrorists.” Republicans can’t possibly be associated with domestic terrorism.

Comment on Joseph Stack was a terrorist by siriunsun

siriunsun — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 15:45:38 +0000

Maybe if we call this guy a “domestic” terrorist, rather than just a terrorist, the whole concept will catch on.

On a somewhat related note: would owning a prayer mat predispose one to being a terrorist in a case of not agreeing with the powers that be? Hubby brought one back from Iraq. Perhaps that is why the midwestern town to which I moved cannot get used to my “Maryland” way of thinking and educating my children!

Comment on Joseph Stack was a terrorist by Rick

Rick — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 02:39:14 +0000

@Ryan: I think what makes this whole thing worse is how a lot of people don’t want to call this guy a terrorist. What part of flying an airplane into a crowded building don’t people understand? It’s as though people don’t want to believe that a government hating, “taxed enough already” white guy can be a terrorist.

Clearly they can.

I’m sure there are more T-baggers out there who aren’t too far off of being the next Stack. Alot of those people are just as delusional as Joey was, and they’re armed. Stupid people with large collections of weapons being egged on by Sarah Palin’s equals bad things to come.

This reminds me of that scene from the movie ‘Downfall’ where Joseph Goebbel’s wife kills their children and say she cannot bare to have them grow up in a world without Adolf Hitler and socialism. What a stupid reason to try and kill your family. This guy will probably be the new poster boy at Teabagging events across the country, those douches must be loving this.

I don’t mind paying taxes. I figure it’s the responsibiliy of every American to pay his or her share. I’m just thankful that I’m able to pay taxes.

It’s the patriotic thing to do.

And the Joker was a terrorist. Alfred said so, and he was played by Michael Caine.

He’s not a terrorist because he wasn’t Muslim and he wasn’t brown skinned. That’s, evidently, the distinction between a terrorist and a “tax protester” (as he was labeled in this morning’s New York Times.

Comment on Teabaggers up in arms over their portrayal in a comic book by Steve

Steve — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 18:04:41 +0000

This is like an ice hockey team complaining about being characterized as a bunch of guys who skate a lot. The tea partiers bitch about how their movement is perceived by outsiders, but they have done not a single thing to change it. It isn’t a very ethnically diverse movement, and despite protestations to the contrary, it is definitely not a non-partisan movement, either.

Tea party organizers claim they don’t care whether someone is a Democrat or a Republican, but how many Democrats have been championing this movement? How many Democratic politicians and pundits have been invited to speak at these tea parties? I know the ones we had around here last year didn’t have a single speaker from the Democratic party, and nearly every public official that showed his or her face was a Republican.

Marvel Comics has no guts.

Comment on About those Christian missionaries in Haiti who are now sitting in jail by siriunsun

siriunsun — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 15:30:59 +0000

I don’t understand why they DIDN’T expect reactions and consequences for what they did! Haiti HAS to respond in a manner that sends a clear message that they will not, under ANY circumstances, tolerate crimes against children or allow families to be pulled apart. Under the current circumstances, if they show the smallest bit of tolerance for it, predators of ALL kinds will declare open season there, which they already have. to some degree. It offended me from the first time I heard about it because these people thought the laws did not apply to them. They also didn’t take a good, long look at why Haiti’s laws need to be obeyed by EVERYONE in Haiti, especially the laws enacted to protect children.

You hear about Limbaugh going off the other about how if someone’s “a retard, you can them a retard.” And he thinks Palin’s being too politically correct. But than I read yesterday that Palin’s crew has backed off their originally soft response to Limbaugh about anyone using the word is being crude and blah, blah, blah. She’ll attack “evil” Dems but not King of the GOP Limbaugh for ON THE AIR comments. This only goes to show that she isn’t some morally decent human being. She’s just your typical politician using any means necessary to further her own popularity and career. It’s about making money and being famous. Sarah Palin is pathetic and so are every single one of her supporters.

@siriunsun: For what it’s worth, I’m sure her doctor told her that the medication she was taking carry the risk of birth defects, I just don’t believe a doctor in the Philippines would have talked to her about an abortion.

Furthermore, if her doctor had truly encouraged her to have an abortion, why didn’t she report this doctor to the Philippine authorities?

Comment on Is Pam Tebow making something up? by siriunsun

siriunsun — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 05:46:34 +0000

Even if a doc did recommend abortion, most doctors like to err on the side of caution. Unlike the media.

Comment on Looks like Sarah Palin is still not reading newspapers by Steve

Steve — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 04:48:19 +0000

Also of note: So far no outraged Facebook notes from Palin over Rush Limbaugh’s repeated use of “retard” on his top-rated radio show yesterday.

Rahm Emanuel calls people “fucking retarded” in a private meeting and Palin calls for him to be fired and wonders whether he is even capable of decency, yet Rush uses the word repeatedly, on the radio, and the most Palin can muster by way of response is the following statement from a spokesperson, emailed to a Washington Post reporter:

“Governor Palin believes crude and demeaning name calling at the expense of others is disrespectful.”

And apparently even that much had to be dragged out of her.

Comment on Jets head coach Rex Ryan fined $50,000 after Dolphins fans tattle on him by Rick

@Ryan: The guy who posted the pic is still being a snitch. He and his buddies started crap with Ryan and he gave them crap back. The incident should have ended with everyone having a laugh. Instead, David Hildenbrand posts a picture and whines about it to the press.

Nobody likes a snitch.

Comment on Jets head coach Rex Ryan fined $50,000 after Dolphins fans tattle on him by Ryan

Ryan — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 05:27:36 +0000

I see it as another move in the game Rex started when he took over. Before the season even started he was going off about this and that, arguing back and forth with one of the Phin players. If he’s going to put himself out there in the media as some brash hardass guy than I don’t have a problem with Phin fans posting pics of him doing it at an event. And for the record, the Jets were swepted last year by the team he seems to think is lesser than his mighty club.

Comment on Is Pam Tebow making something up? by Rick

I don’t doubt that she was on medication that increased the risk of birth defects. I just don’t think that a Filipino doctor told her that she should have an abortion. Not that the idea didn’t pop into her head. She could have gotten on a plane and flown to Hawaii and had the pregnancy terminated. I’m sure she thought of that and simply chose not to.

Furthermore, why didn’t she report the doctor that recommended she abort her baby to the Philippine authorities?
