“‘If this was a Harry Potter movie, liberals would put Justice Scalia on a wanted poster as undesirable number one,’ said Hatch.” —You know, I sorta thought Rowling was a no-no for Mormons.

this might not hurt, but close your eyes anyways: ONE TROY DAVIS FLAME-BROILED, PLEASE → andrewgraham.tumblr.com

azspot:

I just do not get the misanthropy of Ann Coulter — it one thing to be a fervent believer in the death penalty (though I do not understand Christians who brand themselves “pro-life” advocating for it), but this is just spurting of pure hatred.

And, more troubling, is the presence…

Actually, I find the pro-life/death penalty nexus quite simple. The logic goes something like this: “Unborn” children, innocent. Convicted felons—made so by a populace ordained, in a series of theological twists, by God—deserve Old Testament reckoning, carried out by God-fearing folks.

Behind both beliefs is the same moral unswervability.

“Back then, we just got drunk, got high, went in the studio, and made records. Like we still do.” —Props to David Drake for getting anything relevant out of Juicy J.

Teen Creeps No Age

I’m not certain that No Age is “good” or that they don’t “suck,” loaded terms to be sure. (And, yes, I did read all “NINETEEN GODFORSAKEN PAGES,” but probably won’t comment any further than this. And, doubly yes, this here writing is quite over the top.)

But I really like this song.

"We Are All Mormons Now"

Ahhh. So this is where Chris Lehmann has been.

Everyone:  go do what I did*, and read it right now.

*Don’t do exactly what I did, because then you would drugged up in bed with some sort of sinus infection.
