Exactly. It does end up helping everyone except the uber rich. When someone can make a decent wage at an “easier” job, the harder jobs have to pay a little more to keep their employees.

I wasn’t sure about her as Kate Hepburn and I was wrong. She totally pulled it off.

I’m not a fan of hers but it is BS to use her image like that.

Yeah, as in scary ass horror movie “art”, like Hostel.

Even when Bundy’s supporters had weapons aimed at officers.

Oddly enough, they think armed open carry advocates are just fine and just showing their 2nd amendment support via the 1st amendment.. And don’t tell me about the one or two members that happen to black, they really aren’t representative. Ugh.

I remember when I thought Cher had over the top nails. I wondered how she could do anything with them they were sooooo long. LOL. I’m still a nerd though and still have short nails.

My old CCD teachers were always squishy on this and said if someone is truly loving and good they get a pass...at least that’s what they told 8 year old me who already had issues with the injustice of it all.

I read one minister, M. Scott Peck and he admits that there is a subset of people that attend church religiously (ha!) because the appearance of being good is all they care about. He also said that they frequently gravitate to positions of power in the church (again, this makes them look even better) and cause havoc.

The old Catholic upbringing of this atheist really kicks in on this for me. Catholicism certainly has it’s faults but the good works vs. faith argument solidly makes me agree with the Catholic vs. most Protestant religions on this one. To me, faith (and fear) alone shouldn’t be enough, and someone who is good and kind…

Hitting the see less of this kind of thing and blocking all posts from “Tea Party Patriots” but not your idiot friend will make you feel safer on FB.

Out of nowhere, I went to a friend’s kids dance recital. The 3 year olds marched out. One stopped and glared out at the audience (that she couldn’t really see through the lights). The audience started to laugh and she marched to the edge of the stage, placed her hands on her hips and upped the amperage of the glare.…

I’m afraid for a different reason. Usually when a group that is in majority AND has all the power feels threatened they cause a lot of hurt on the minorities, not the other way around. And Fox is drumming up the fear and paranoia.

In truth I think only Cruz is the only smart one in that bunch but he pretends not to be. I think Ryan is always puffed up to be smart but his “plans” and ideas are always pretty lightweight. Walker reminds me of Dubya, but without the charm.

I don’t get that. Why not a pilot? An engineer? A nurse? They don’t have any background in politics either.

Men aren’t animals, that’s why I think the whole thing of be careful or what you wear, what you drink, etc. is kind of bs, because only guys that are sharks will circle you if you’re down.

“And maybe cut her a break.” This, a thousand times. The poor girl raped by the prep school bro was nice to him afterward, didn’t know how to behave. Most of us get that, and we don’t judge her for it. I think the same standard should be applied here.

Many, many victims blame themselves. Question what led up to their assault, much of it is a way of figuring out how to prevent it from ever happening again (as if there is any foolproff way for that to happen). It’s hard for me to judge her too harshly for acting “normal”. She isn’t a bad person and if anything, this…

Never mind...why bother.

I knew an incest victim that told me how she had provoked it, she had sat in his lap, etc. She had been 7. It still freaks me out that she felt that way.
