    Obama supports mosque... SURPRISE

    A reason would have to be given to deny the building of it. If that reason violates the Constitution, there ya go. Considering what you have in your signature, you of all people should know that. But are we now talking about a hypothetical community center, built possibly anywhere, or has the...

    Obama supports mosque... SURPRISE

    So in letting them build it, because we cannot legally prevent them from doing so, are we still then appeasing them? That's my problem with a lot of people who oppose this. Even you here, with the "As usual, the handringers will appease them. These same handringers will be so pleased with...

    New mattress

    Before dropping the cash at Walmart, you might want to check out the Serta Memory Foam mattresses and toppers at Overstock.com. I got my 3-inch memory foam topper from there to go on top of e 6-inch regular (el cheapo) foam mattress. It's the same price regardless of size. So size doesn't...

    Obama supports mosque... SURPRISE

    OK, so let's hear your solution. How do we deny them the property and the building of a mosque at the site, while reconciling that decision with the Constitution?

    So everything within the frame of that picture is now "sacred ground"? Wow.

    "Another" Waste of Our Money!

    The above, and the Blog post at Before It's News, is a little off the mark. It's not like the US is running around refurbishing mosques. Sheesh. This is what happens when people read stuff and believe it at face value, because it already fits well with their preconceived notions and prejudices...

    Well, Congress and many states and localities have tried their best to legislate against stupid. Doesn't work, tho. Texting while driving immediately comes to mind.

    Flying J's Expediters showers for vans and sprinters

    Well, I was half right. They merged the two programs into the Driver Payback program. But, they made an allowance for expediters (albeit it a lame, half-аssed allowance that few will be able to use, so I was more than half right, 3/4 right). Loyalty FAQs - Home Effective September 1st...

    What the NYC Mosque Iman whats and desires for the world...

    Well of course it is. I said it. :D Absolutely. The last sentence being, "Therefore, in the eyes of Muslims, the state and all of it's laws must be based firmly on Sharia law." But we must also keep in mind that there are many, many Muslims (a vast majority, in fact) who, while they believe it...

    Obama whines ALOT!

    Sure. You said, "You may be right, but it's hard to take seriously the views of someone who hides behind the persona of an ancient philosopher." Your statement can be interpreted in two ways. One, that Aristotle the Expediter really and truly hides behind the persona of Aristotle the...

    It's the "UNLESS" part that makes it knuckle dragging. Either we have religious freedom, or we don't. Simple as that. There are no degrees of it, no "you you can worship the way you want to, when you want to and where you want to, as long as I agree with how, when and where you do it," stuff...

    I watched a Hino the other day get blown off the road by a man and woman in an Amish buggy.

    Just a clarification, "myopathy" is a muscular dystrophy disease in which the muscle fibers do not function for any number of reasons. The primary defect is within the muscle itself, as opposed to the nerves, as with neuropathies or neurogenic disorders. "Myopia", on the other hand, is a...

    Obama whines ALOT!

    It's simple. Letzrock said, to Aristotle... He's dismissing the validity of the views and opinions of Aristotle solely because of Aristotle's screen name. Doing that is childish and immature, since the screen name has nothing whatsoever to do with what someone says. It's the last resort of...

    Equating what someone says, or to the validity of what they say, to their screen name is quite possibly the lamest discussion and debate tactic, ever. It's "I know you are but what am I" Pee Wee Herman type stuff. Sheesh.

    You know what they say about doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. What you have stated is that whatever you want to do, as long as it's inspired by God, is OK. That's what Muslim extremists say, too. Whining, whether it be liberal or conservative, is not good...

    Generally, yes, good triumphs over evil. Not always, tho. But faith has got nothing to do with it. But I cannot believe that you made such a ludicrous statement that conservative whining is good and decent, much less is inspired by God. There are, believe it or don't, agnostic and atheist...
