    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    This article does a fairly good job of discussing how "traditional marriage" as we think of it today scantily resembles the "traditional marriage" of even 50 years ago.

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    It goes to the point of why it's in the state's interest to legislate civil rights, but not anyone's particular opinion of "wholesome" or "aberrant" behavior. Because there's always someone to the left or right of you. Also, I noticed you didn't have much to say about HEROES.

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    Here's a chart of HEROES viewership by episode: HEROES peaked around 16 million and was down to just 4 million when they canceled it. In other words, it was drawing only a quarter of the viewers it once did. If you owned Best Buy, and this chart reflected the sales performance of one of...

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    By the way, this is actually a pretty good description of what happens when capitalism meets entertainment. Why shoot for quality when Nation Lampoon's Fart Party 6 will make you rich.

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    The boundaries keep getting tested because that's what the people watching want. In many ways, the studios you think are trying to corrupt your teenage daughters are, in fact, the ones keeping television from becoming even less "wholesome" than it already is. But let's assume for a moment...

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    What the heck is "aberrant biological behavior"? You mean non-procreative acts, like when I insert something besides my penis into my wife's vagina and she inserts my penis into something besides her vagina? Surely you don't partake in any of that.

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    Let me assure you, if there were a huge demand for the kind of "wholesome" programming you're advocating (and therefore an untapped fortune of advertising revenue available for the taking), every network would be chasing it. Alas, there is no conspiracy to corrupt your daughters. The people...

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    Flatly, no. If the networks thought America wanted Christian programming, they would broadcast it 24/7. All they're doing is the same thing every other business is doing: chasing the money. The suspects you're looking for live closer to home.

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    I used to be for same-sex marriage. But this woman's arguments are too compelling to dismiss.

    Today's Question: Do you support same-sex marriage?

    Could be. But, politically, there's considerable downside to this as well. Romney's problem was always going to be turning out the base. Would white evangelicals show up for a formerly pro-choice Mormon from Massachusetts or would they sit this election out? Obama's announcement pretty much...

    News Article: Adam Yauch (co-founder of Beastie Boys) has died

    Not sure how the rest of y'all plan on spending your evening, but I for one will be grabbing a piano player and punching him in the face.

    Bad News For People Who Hate Good News (economy added 243,000 jobs in January)

    Obviously if the rest of the Summer continues like this, Obama is in real trouble (as are we). That being said, I think you'd be surprised who's defending this jobs report. NATIONAL REVIEW: April Jobs Report Not as Bad as You Think

    OBL = dead

    I suppose that depends on your definition of 100% accurate. Here are the President's remarks from May 2, 2011, which I suggest you read in full. I'll underline the "passages" your ad cites and bold a few of the ones it does not. Do you believe your ad fairly characterizes the President's...

    OBL = dead

    Also, where the hell did you find this picture of me? Mods, please remove.

    OBL = dead

    No credit necessary. I have an app that inserts words like that automatically. Plus, I pay a Puerto Rican boy to write these posts.

    OBL = dead

    Could you show me where Obama "took all the credit" for the mission? Here's how he addressed it at the State of the Union:

    Question: Why No Intervention in Syria from Pres. Obama?

    This. It's about cost vs. reward. As for the politics of it, I'll look around for the study, but I'm pretty sure starting a war does wonders for a president's approval rating. It's when the war continues endlessly that people get antsy.

    OBL = dead

    I'll take y'all's word that you would have been so magnanimous. Still, I can see the Fox News headline: "OBAMA'S BRAVE ATTEMPT TO KILL BIN LADEN BOTCHED BY SPECIAL FORCES" ;)

    OBL = dead

    Can’t we just celebrate blowing someone’s brains out in non-partisan harmony? :) But, seriously, I have a thought experiment for everyone. Imagine for a moment that the raid had gone horribly wrong, that we had failed to get OBL, and that we had lost the entire Seal Team 6. For...
