both headed for the unemployment bread line? After all, they've been known to have been on federal dole in excess of $100,000 in the past. One thing's for sure. These vestigial anachronisms are headed toward extinction sooner rather than later, long before they'll ever capitalize on an over-hyped "cure."

but I expect MB will turn up as a yapping, shrieking head on Faux News any day day now. *gag*

hubby - CityMouse

And being the devout Christian woman she is, she will only go on faux news if it's okay with the hubby :-)

This is a big trend. Many groups are accepting, if reluctantly, - that our sexual identity is part of us. nm

By Raw StoryMonday, January 18th, 2010 -- 4:00 pm For years, many Islamic clerics have been arguing that the US's war on terror is a "holy war" against Islam.

A Michigan supplier of sights for high-powered rifles has long been etching subtle references to Jesus on equipment it sells to the US military, possibly in contravention of army regulations that forbid religious proselytization.

Help With Conversion Measurements For A Baking RecipeSep 17, 2015
I found a recipe for no bake chocolate oat bars, but I'm confused about the conversion rate they have.  (I'll post the recipe below).  They look good so wanted to give it a try. My question is this... Is .5 cups = 1/2 cup?  It says - .5 cup, packed (7.8 oz.) Brown Sugar.  When I looked up how many ounces in 1/2 cup the i-net has 1/2 cup = 4 oz.  When I looked up how many cups is 7.8 oz it says 7.8 oz = .975 c.  I've never heard of .975 cups.  S ...

Boehner's Support For His Plan B Collapses, So Closes House For Holidays And Leaves,Dec 21, 2012
After the tea partiers who said they were behind him on his Plan B in the morning backed out later in the day, Speaker Boehner closed the House for the holidays. This all happened so fast they were literally wheeling in carts of food for a late night of lawmaking work when the House abruptly adjourned and they all walked out without voting on their own measure. He must be bitterly disappointed. As someone said, "Every time this guy takes a foot forward, he gets slammed in the back of the head ...

Do We Really Believe Obama Is A Christian After This????Sep 18, 2015
Some of the things he does makes a lot of people wonder if he's really a Christian. Really - I thought everyone argued against separation of church and state; IOW, NO PRAYER in school is allowed, yet this was allowed. Why? Are the Muslims exempt from following that law? Or is only the Christian religious prayer not allowed?  This is another glaring example of the double standard in this country.Prayer vigil held for Mohamed, clock ‘bomb’ boy: What are they praying for?

In such gloomy times the example of the martyrs can be encouraging. Those who laid down their lives for Christ and His Church in worse times than ours are bea ...

Republicans Are Trapped By Christian May 27, 2015
