"Madonna has built her entire career on passing off other people's innovations as her own and making sure the original authors of things don't get as much credit for their work as she does." -Hillary Clinton

I am not 'Hilary Clinton.' And please stop using something I wrote to promote your goddamn album.

This is a really weird way to announce you're Hillary's new speech writer, Erin.

I once accepted a date with a dude and he replied, "Bless your heart". It made me a bit tense and I never went out with him.

"Bless your heart" is the best phrase ever because it can mean literally anything you want it to. Plus, you can piss off a racist Southerner SO QUICKLY if you bless their hearts in response to whatever racism they've decided to spout off. It reduces them to the level of a child, it's fantastic.

The best smokescreen for gossip that Southerners (especially Southern Baptists) have come up with is the prayer request.

If they were having problems, if they were misguided but honestly caring and thought that this family friend could really help while they figured out the best way to care for these children

I don't think the statement you suggested is playing devil's advocate. It's what they would have said if either of them had a shred of humanity in them. Is he even sorry that the older girl was raped or is he too busy whining about the shitstorm rightly coming down on his tiny head?

I am actually going to ignore EVERYTHING WRONG with this (which is EVERYTHING) and play semi-devil's advocate.

But he gave them teddy bears, so he was being the best dad ever. They just weren't being grateful enough.

I love that these Christians are the same ones telling women that they should all want to be mothers, to all the children, no matter what, no exceptions, so abortion should be illegal and in-accessible. "We'll adopt your children if you don't want them! Just save the precious children lives!"

This is a whole new level of insane, because it seems like in his mind, he's a victim of the media for reporting this, but also a victim of these two girls, which is of course not true.

And talking on the phone with my dad while a man who is his same age goes HAM on my lady bits like it's an all you can eat buffffffffet

I'm an adoptive mom. When my kid was going through issues you know what I was doing? I was looking in to temporary residential care or other programs to help treat my child, not removing her from the family. My DHS was supportive, they know her behavior warranted the discussion. Thankfully we found counseling and…

from the Democrat-Gazette article mentioned:

There is a very radical, but effective, treatment. It involves two pieces of lumber, three spikes, & a mallet. No one seems to want to take the cure, for some reason...

I just want to be sure I'm following this.

We're gonna need a bigger cross.
