Both the complete asshole who wrote this and whoever gave the okay to publish this tripe should be fired. She says our society is at fault for non-consensual sex because we allow consensual sex to whoever wants to have it? No, fuck yooooooooooooooooou. Bonus idiot points for defending child porn as totally cool as long as you do it in the privacy of your own home.

There is a reason I use the Royal Canadian Air Farce's description of MacLean's all the time: "Canada's National Waste of Paper". The only reason I even read it right now is because my phone company is giving it to me for free. Most of what is in there is rubbish.

Smith, who you might remember from such failed legislation as SOPA, is touting the High Quality Research Act as a way to avoid unnecessary duplication in the field of science funding and as a way of allowing members of Congress to have an input into funding decisions.

Totes how research works.

Actually a pretty catastrophic idea. Evolution and climate change research would be contested by fools who don't know anything about science. Fucking 'ell.

If it helps the people mentioned behind it are not names that have been involved in super successful things of late.

Still that it is even up for discussion is pretty goddamned stupid.

Look at this government intervening and preventing the invisible hand of the free market from deciding the value of products.

This is also dumb. BYOD is Bring Your Own Device for reference.

"He continues to protest his innocence and his defense council protested that 'any amount of protective devices at checkpoints in Baghdad couldn't protect the people of Iraq from those who conduct the insurgency there.'"

That is an amazing defense strategy, I must say.

A special kind of idiot, this one.

She just has a very firm sense of personal responsibility. She KNEW she would be drinking and driving, and surely she has heard of all the stories about drunk drivers going out and killing whole families in the resulting wreck, so she figured since she was taking the risk it should be her own family on the line.

It's just logic.

Anthony Edward Stark · « **Reply #87 on:** May 07, 2013, 03:14:25 AM »

I'm just saying that if what they say is true and buzzed driving really is drunk driving, might as well get really crunk.

Hey, Coburn! While you being consistently an asshole shows that you are committed to your ideals, it doesn't change the fact that you are in fact an asshole.

Consistently one of the bottom five senators in the senate! And probably not Oklahoma's worst senator, somehow, fuck.

I am going to spend tomorrow afternoon in a room with Jim Inhofe. The bidding for a punch in the nose opens at $500 and bail.

Inhofe needs to be slapped, and like 75% of the commenters in this thread need to be defenestrated. And Coburn... fuck! I can't wait to vote so I can futilely try to kick these asswipes out.

http://www.collective-evolution.com/2011/11/18/vaccinated_kids_more_diseases/

a person with a degree in putting water in a bottle and calling it a cure tells me vaccinated kids are diseased

i should totally believe them right

other citations include a quack doctor who trolls the internet, the age of autism, which is a delightful cocktail of the craziest anti-vax people, none of them which know a whit about science, and the study was done via an internet survey

also a very poor understanding of how vaccines work. they boost the immune system, not destroy it. oh, and vaccines also wipe kids' minds of individuality.

my brain is melting
