After Phil Robertson told the truth to GQ Magazine (though in a rather colorful way) about homosexuality, liberals went into their predictable hypocritical hyperventilations. While slamming Robertson’s (and essentially the Bible’s) views on homosexuality and sin (which are shared by ten-of-millions of Americans), liberals completely ignored (read: had absolutely no problem with) what were by far the most offensive things in the GQ column.
Authored by Drew Magary, the column is replete with dripping sarcasm along with plenty of vulgar and foul language. In the very first paragraph, referring to Mr. Robertson’s large crossbow, Magary says “It looks like you could shoot through a god—mn mountain with it.” Of course, if one doesn’t believe what the Bible says anyway, what harm is there in swearing with God’s name?
Just two sentences later, Magary writes, “The bow is cocked and loaded, just in case a deer stumbles in front of us and we need to do a redneck drive-by on the poor b-stard…” The f-bomb is dropped more than once, along with several other foul words and crude references. Seemingly, none of this bothers the left. No, they are offended by Scripture quotations that contradict their liberal worldview.
As Matt Lewis of the Daily Caller points out, such a worldview much prefers “Pajama Boy” to the boys of Duck Dynasty. As Lewis noted in his column, “There is a huge schism between red state America and blue state America, and these two stories seem to symbolize the yawning chasm.” However wide this chasm, as a father of four, three of whom are boys (ages 5, 9, and 11), one thing is clear to me: I’m raising “Duck Dynasty” boys, not “Pajama” boys.

As the boomer generation age out, look for more to come back to faith in the Lord.
No, the judge deferred the ruling saying that it’s “likely” unconstitutional. He didn’t rule on the merits of the constitutionality, just that the defendant in the case was right to argue his rights were violated.
This will be deferred to the SCOTUS at some point, but until then, the NSA will continue to do what they do.
...this way they’d have a passive wussy compliment citizenship to rule over.
.....But to correct you, it is a good start.
The court simply “weaken it” in other words, not killed it, but weaken it.
Will not happen, with confidence.
The Guardian UK article is correct.
I raised a US Marine. By myself.
Larry Grathwohl:
"I asked, 'well what is going to happen to those people we can't reeducate, that are diehard capitalists?' and the reply was that they'd have to be eliminated. And when I pursued this further, they estimated they would have to eliminate 25 million people in these reeducation centers. And when I say 'eliminate,' I mean 'kill.' Twenty-five million people. I want you to imagine sitting in a room with 25 people, most of which have graduate degrees, from Columbia and other well-known educational centers, and hear them figuring out the logistics for the elimination of 25 million people. And they were dead serious."
That has been disproven over the past thirty years of the AIDS plague.
Homos have no intention of quietly living out their lives. They have no intention of letting straight people quietly live out their lives.
Their intention is to inflict their death-style on the whole of the population, and they are doing so rather successfully, day in and day out.
Judge Richard Leon declared that the mass collection of metadata probably violates the fourth amendment
In Monday’s ruling, the judge concluded that the pair's constitutional challenge was likely to be successful
Leon’s opinion contained stern and repeated warnings that he was inclined to rule that the metadata collection performed by the NSA – and defended vigorously by the NSA director Keith Alexander on CBS on Sunday night – was unconstitutional.
This was a trial designed to test the fitness of the accusations against the government. This was not a legally-binding trial forcing the NSA to stop collecting data, and even when that trial comes about, the NSA won't stop. It might put in place some "feel good" measures to make the public think it's turning a new leaf, but signal intelligence remains the most lucrative form of intelligence. They'll just be careful to avoid any more inconvenient intelligence leaks.
Most likely it is going to be sent to the USSC for future case.
That picture pretty much says it all....
