Lessons: Unparallel Treatment of George Tiller & William Long Murders

No two events are perfectly parallel, but seldom are two such similar and terrible stories juxtaposed for our edification. Within 24 hours and within 500 miles from each other, two notable murders occurred -- both evil acts perpetrated in public by two different men, but both for apparent ideological reasons, both sudden and horribly unexpected events for the families and loved ones of the victims, both suspects quickly brought into custody. That's where the parallels end. What's most informative is some of the prominent responses to the two incidents: … [Read more...]

Lawsuit Against Bible Publishers New Milestone in Warped Leftist Lunacy

The warped, whiny, politically correct victim culture has reached a new milestone of insanity:A homosexual man who has a blog on Sen. Barack Obama's campaign website is suing two major Christian publishers for violating his constitutional rights and causing emotional pain, because the Bible versions they publish refer to homosexuality as a sin. Bradley LaShawn Fowler, 39, of Canton, Mich., is seeking $60 million from Zondervan and another $10 million from Thomas Nelson Publishing in lawsuits filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, the Grand Rapids Press reported.

Firsthand Reports on Today’s Moonbattery at the State Capitol

Two of Colorado's hardest-working, most creative bloggers sacrificed their time and their mental well-being to mingle at today's pathetic anti-war moonbat rally at the Colorado State Capitol. In addition to some pictures of the predictably naive and downright scary Leftist variety, El Presidente has an edited video of what you're glad to have missed, including the poet who wants to burn down Lockheed Martin. Also, you can find a ton more pictures and snide commentary from the Drunkablog's John Martin - it seems he has developed quite an unfavorable reputation with the Leftist wackos he highlights frequently. All in all, these two bloggers deserve our thanks, because it's better to watch the highlights from the comfort of your home … [Read more...]
