Comment on Moron of the Week: Ruben Navarrette Jr. by Henshaw

So your augments is that I have a typo, I’m a racist, and I’m blithering idiot. Police officers ask for paperwork for everyone who is pulled over. Is that racist? Illegal aliens shouldn’t have a valid drivers license.

If you’re going to attack someone at least come up with an argument. Name calling is what six graders do when they don’t get what they want.

If you’re going to attack someone for being a moron, maybe you ought to do a spellcheck first. Especially when the moron in question spelled it correctly in the first place.
Let me spell it slowly for you so you get it; R-O-G-U-E. Rouge is a makeup used to make cheeks appear redder. If you were trying to make a point regarding Arizona as a red state, it was a weak attempt that belabors the obvious.
And since you appear to be blinded to the inhrent racism of a police officer asking an American citizen for their papers on the suspicion that they’re here illegally, all I can say is that you, sir, are the blithering idiot.

Don’t worry. Apparently “It’s halftime in America”, so the republican primaries are really just an awful halftime show that will tie us over until Obama’s second half(term).

Comment on Real Genius – More Men are Geniuses? by thisworld

I am a woman. I have two degrees from very good universities. I am multi-lingual(I can switch between at least two languages perfectly at the highest level, with good understanding on many others). And I am a lawyer. So, in a nutshell, I am not stupid. And yet, I am not enraged by Professor Lynn’s claim that men in general, are smarter than women, because I know this to be true. Of course, there are always exceptions.

I have two boys and a girl. They are all very smart, just in different ways. Girls are more verbally articulate. They are incredibly successful at verbalising their ideas, concepts and at general communication. By comparison, my boys are like dumb and dumber who can’t put two sentences together coherently, especially in front of other people. They are also awkward socially whereas my girl is a natural born socialite. And yet, these same boys have been winning all types of maths and science competitions since the age of 7. Their verbally better equipped sister knows and accept this. She doesn’t get upset or challenge this because, she also knows that she is better than they in other areas(emotional stuff, remember?)

Some women, especially die hard feminists get upset with the aforementioned notion because they start from the wrong premises that we(women) have to be like men in every aspect, when in fact, we simply can’t. That’s why we are women and they are men. We are different and are good at different things. Funny enough, the very same feminists I mentioned above, do not seem to mind that much when they discover that men are more likely to be able to lift heavy objects and the like then women in general. It’s because they accept that men’s physics are different from women’s. So why not accept the fact that men’s brains are also different from women’s ?

Comment on stephen king shot john lennon? by Seederman

I always thought King seemed a little sinister. It makes perfect sense; of course Reagan and the retired Nixon wanted Lennon out of the way, they were sick of his “house husbandry” and they had received word that Lennon was about to revive Yoko Ono’s singing career. King was the perfect choice to carry out the plot, and then be swapped out for Chapman after the deed. To make sure the plot worked, the evil presidential duo placed seemingly innocuous news headlines all over Time and Newsweek, which if you read carefully, are *roadmaps to the horrific murder that was to take place* My only quarrel with Lightfoot is his assertation that King was “barely famous” in 1980. Did he somehow miss that year’s blockbuster, The Shining, or any of the three other King novels that had been made into major motion pictures? This doesn’t ultimately hurt his argument; by picking a famous writer like King to do the killing, they threw the scent completely off Chapman, until they switched them at the end. Makes sense, I don’t know why people give Lightfoot such a hard time. As a review of Lightfoot’s pamphlet succinctly put it: “Stephen King, you jerk!!!”

Deb,
I’m with you on the 316 nonsense. These people should read Matt 16:4.

Only an evil, adulterous generation would demand a miraculous sign, but the only sign I will give them is the sign of the prophet Jonah.” Then Jesus left them and went away.

There are a few people in denial here. The left doesn’t support “Che”. What the ???

Didn’t see any Ayn Rand t-shirts at Occupy Wall-street. There was quite a few “Che” though.

I like Tebow. He is honest, hardworking, and appears to have a good heart. We need more role models like that in sports. However, I hate those who attribute his success to divine intervention. The big craze now is the coincidence of John 3:16 and total/avg yards in his last game. I even heard a radio show talking about how they believe people should consider this a sign from god and are glad that Tebow is making “believers” in others. This is what gets annoying. The religious community is using Tebow as propaganda. Just look at the comment by “Joe in Oklahoma”. Amazing how this is now about Christian persecution and examining the word of Jesus. Again, this is what gets annoying.
