The Republicans hate Obama

With the administration admitting that there is some sketchy intelligence supporting the theory that chemical weapons have been used in Syria, the conservatives are calling for a new war. Face it - they never met a crisis they didn't think could be solved with guns and war.

Religious values

Religion is more about maintenance of the system, and even growing the system, than it is about the arbitrary morality it preaches. No killing, they say, unless it is to expand the influence of the religion, they say. Too bad they really don't mean that "no killing" thing.

The "murder" machines

It's fine that we have drones and can kill without personal guilt - without having to  personally shoot someone in your presence - to witness the blood and the agony. But tell me this - what are you going to do when our enemies have drones and are flying them all over the U.S.?

The devil?

Rachel is astute

Perhaps a vote on gun background checks?

Think Progress is reporting that Congress might actually vote very soon on a process to improve background checks for those buying guns. Can we dare to hope?

I liked Ike

I was too young to vote for him, but he was a pretty good president...

That didn't take long.

Either God likes to watch us all killing, torturing and butchering each other, or he doesn't give a shit. That is, if you still believe.

Good words.

It's a big war, too

The plant is making headway - just legalized in two states.

Good words

I didn't verify that these words came from Gene Roddenberry, but they are good wherever they originated.

Andy Borowitz speaks

Andy makes good sense, but it doesn't fir in with the Christian rights' world domination agenda.

Abe would like a word with you.

There's always room for Jello (war)

Time to admit we're the best at it and stop fighting?

He wants us
