stfuteabaggers:
why do other countries’ governments fear their citizens?
because in france, the entire country rallies when they try to raise the retirement age.
in greece, they set police cars ON FIRE when there is police brutality.
why are we not rallying against these millionaire tax…

corruptpolitics:
“Though I didn’t agree or consent to it (it) was not rape.” Does that sentence make sense to you? It shouldn’t. If you don’t agree or consent to sexual intercourse, that’s called rape. But a South Carolina rape survivor reports that she was forced to write this statement by Marion police after being assaulted by one of their own.

"Patriotism"
squashed:
To follow up on my earlier post, I’m not against patriotism. The love of country is a fine thing—provided we’re a bit reflective about what we mean by it. Are we referring to a geographic area and all the people in it? Are we referring to a set of cultural peculiarities? Are we referring to a history? A set of brands and symbols?
Or are we referring to a set of constitutional values...

While I haven’t researched this organization yet, from the outside this looks absolutely fantastic. I am going to get Sami on board with these.

Unpatriotic Democrats want to force open gays into...
As I’m writing the chapter about Homosexuality in America for a joint project I am working on with Sami, I can’t help but point out a website I found while conducting research.
I’m going to copy and paste directly from my writing:
Dr. Kevin “Coach” Collins, on his website “The Coach is Right,” in response to the momentum behind the repeal of DADT, wrote an article entitled,...

accordingtosami:
I’ve gotten it from like 3 people today. Seriously? Being treated like a normal citizen is “superiority” now? Hate is one thing; this is just flat out stupidity.
It’s a sick case of xenophobia and ignorance. Maybe Ignoxenorancophobia.

America Is Now Officially for Sale →
titusandtheraindrops:
The essence of the Tea Party - and the relevance of ‘A Face In The Crowd’ - can be seen most plainly in Glenn Beck. Just over a decade ago, he was a drug-taking, pro-abortion, perpetually drunk DJ on morning radio. One of his famous “pranks” was to ring up the wife of a radio-show rival a few days after she had a miscarriage and taunt her about her loss. But then he...

There are positive and negative freedoms.
etrehumain:
And a corporation’s freedom to discriminate against its employees does not count as a positive freedom.
That is yet another example of why corporate personhood is a BAD thing. We give corporations the power to spend a limitless amount of money on elections, did you know that? What happens when I can only donate $500 because that’s all I can afford, but a corporation can spend...

Pro-Life or Anti-Sex (from lipsbetweenthehips)
lipsbetweenthehips:
“Pro-Life or Anti-Sex: A thought… It seems to me that most Pro-Life people I know really aren’t Pro-Life at all. They are, rather, Anti-Sex. That is, the abortion debate is often just a cover to wage war on the sexual revolution and the Dawn of the Pill. What many Pro-Life people are angry about is the casual sexuality of our age, an era of “abortion on demand.” Pro-Life...

Concord is right outside of Charlotte, and the clinics are in Charlotte, the same clinics that are getting national attention now for the “Wanted” posters circulating about the doctors. I volunteer as a clinic defender there.

How Would I Make America a Better Country?
Here’s a new thing I would like to start.
I’d like everyone to reblog this and post an answer to the following question:
“How would you make America a better country?”
Here’s my ideas:
Integrate comprehensive sexual health education into our school systems.
Eliminate corporate personhood for corporations - they are by the people - not people.
Create a campaign...

The Republicans are back. Not because the American people like the Republican Party, but because they’re fed up with soaring deficits, increased spending, huge debts and rampant unemployment.
The Republicans are back to do what we said we were going to do just a few years ago. The party turned their backs on their principles and became disliked in the USA. Now we’re back to...
