Can you find something wrong with the above headline? I sure can. Please to be explaining to me why the fact that Christine Newton-John is a transgendered person is relevant to the fact that she brutally tortured/murdered her husband, James Mason. Here’s another headline (from Cleveland’s “Plain Dealer”):
“Transgender woman pleads guilty in husband’s death by...

WTF?
George Carlin has died. I can’t believe this. Well, I can believe it because he was old and he didn’t take fabulous care of himself during his lifetime. I probably started hearing and reading George Carlin’s work long before I should have. My father was a big fan on his and wrote a paper supporting Carlin’s position for his law group in regards to Carlin’s...

I have been against the death penalty always. As I get older though, I find my liberal ideals often clash with the reality of life on this planet. This is one of those times. This man faces a mere 5 YEARS in prison for RAPING a BABY. She has brain damage and broken bones. If you read the article, you’ll see that prosecutors dropped the criminal sexual conduct and child abuse charges so the...

Yes! Let’s blame military recruiters for the wars in Iraq in Afghanistan! That makes total sense! And if your plan works and no one joins the military anymore and our current forces are depleted then I’m sure you can defend America from enemies by hurling books at them and sitting down to coffee with them for a nice chat. That will totally work because people that are fine with using...

please to be explaining this to me
Man seeks out prostitute.
Man finds prostitute and pays her for sex.
Prostitute gets busted, shamed, and goes to jail.
Man goes back to life as usual aside from a slap on the wrist.
Huh?

“I think people are learning to actually aspire to be objectified,” Christina Ricci said. “It’s like the highest form of flattery for teenage girls. The culture we live in right now seems to reward behavior that we used to frown upon. We used to teach our daughters not to be like this. I think in the ’80s, there would certainly have been a little bit of snobbery expressed if somebody admitted to...

Food Rationing Confronts Breadbasket of the World... →
Many parts of America, long considered the breadbasket of the world, are now confronting a once unthinkable phenomenon: food rationing. Major retailers in New York, in areas of New England, and on the West Coast are limiting purchases of flour, rice, and cooking oil as demand outstrips supply. There are also anecdotal reports that some consumers are hoarding grain stocks.
