    Anyone with half a brain can understand my very basic answer to you, so I'm not surprised that you think I make no sense considering the braindead tripe you've been spewing. And you are obviously not so bored that you can't stop responding to what you consider 'ranting'. Nice try in attempting to sound 'above it

    Well I certainly hesitate to use someone's voting record alone to conclude that they must be racist, especially if the argument could be made that they are just toe-ing the party line. The argument can be made based on the bills, I suppose, but I have no doubt that some of these people at least believed they were

    Moving on because you can't argue my points, I imagine. Also: being black doesn't mean you can't be fucking ignorant, and if you really are black you should be ashamed of the tired stereotypes you are tossing around.

    Well if leveled reasoning hasn't worked thus far, I'm curious to see how you believe this can succeed where dialogue has failed. I'm not in favor of taking this country any further down the rhetorical crapper than we are already, nor am I in favor of making gross assumptions based on region and political party, even

    Well here's the thing: making the point itself that many of those who consider themselves "pro-life" may be hypocritical in their own personal lives is necessary. However, it lies in how you do it. Throwing out wild accusations doesn't endear you to anyone, especially when you put some other lady on the spot, which

    Do you actually know any black people? (Doubtful.) Because they will tell you that the people you are likely talking about - the Jacksons and Sharptons - do not represent them any more than Rush Limbaugh represents all white people. Black people aren't one autonomous unit for you to take out your racial aggression

    And thus begins today's lesson in "What's wrong with all black people according to some random person".

    Yeah, maybe because that last point serves no purpose in the discussion except to rile people up and throw blame at black people when it isn't needed?

    Or just makes you feel holier-than-thou, which seems more likely.

    Not surprised some genius with so many better things to do apparently came here only to bitch about "liberal hate speech" on a site no one forces them to read.

    Oh yes, from Philly. One of her brothers actually went to my school. I read an article about her from a few years back that said she spent years toning down her Philly accent - she would practice holding her nose and speaking so she could learn to stop speaking nasally. The result of all her practice was that it

    So happy to see Tim Roth, but I doubt I'll be able to watch this and actually believe Kidman as Grace Kelly. I feel like a really great actor may pull it off a la Frank Langella in Frost/Nixon, but I feel like here I'd just be watching Nicole Kidman in pretty clothes playing princess.

    I'm sure I'll be in the minority with this attitude, but (right as he may be) this doesn't help. What we need is more honest discussion about abortion, not accusations. That sort of talk doesn't change minds any more than it does when Republicans talk out of their ass on the subject.

    Maybe because the problem you're describing isn't about abortion itself, but about disproportionate rates of poverty amongst black women, a lack of access to education, healthcare and birth control, and few resources once you do give birth - all things that "urban black leadership" address repeatedly. But I'm sure

    That's it. I'm done. Best comment ever.

    I think it's just sloppily written (because: Jezebel), because I noticed that too. I was also put off by what seemed like an unnecessary mention of the Duggars in the title. It makes sense to mention it in the story later as a clarification of who he is, but the title seems made to sensationalize something that

    This is pretty much True Detective, but without the murder - though the story is still brand-spanking new...

    That would be incredible! I love when people are so obsessed they do things like that: A friend of mine actually once painted his jeep to look like the ones from Jurassic Park, complete with custom decals on the doors that were identical to the ones in the movie. Unfortunately he later married a woman who was not

    This is what would happen to me if I got the Ghostbuster mobile.

    Not necessarily. That may be your particular opinion of "love fails", but I believe love can fail for a variety of reasons. Love can be one-sided and so can its failure. You really can't classify such a broad emotion so narrowly.
