Pat Robertson: “Is mac and cheese a black thing?”

Hey Pat! Lesbians have vaginas! So you support gay marriage?

I use to have a philosophy about the neighborhood I used to live in: if you become annoyed or complain about noise at any time... two in the morning, five in the morning, whenever theen its time for you to leave the mission district. Hey it happened to me and I moved out of the neighborhood somewhere less crazy and less fun.
The same is true for old people. If you are pushing your out of date ideas onto people... maybe its time to shut the fuck up and retire.


In Pat Robertson's case, I'd replace "retire" with "die".

Pat Robertson: Ignore Bible on Slavery. Okay. What else?

bareboards2 says...

Of course, Dan Savage has some words of wisdom about this:

http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2012/07/09/pat-robertson-the-bible-is-terribly-wrong

Excerpt:
I would like to take this opportunity to point out that LGBT people aren't asking conservative Christians to do anything they aren't already doing. We're asking conservative Christians to ignore what the bible says about homosexuality just as they ignore what the bible says about slavery. (They ignore what the bible says about slavery so thoroughly that many don't know that the bible says anything about slavery at all!)

Christians moved in their "conception of the value of human beings" before and they can do it again.

Ditto. Agnostic is the only sane choice. Fuck Atheists who want to put agnostics under their "umbrella"


If you're not agnostic, you're either a liar (falwell, robertson, et al) or insane (bush, shinyblurry).
>> ^VoodooV:

two sides of the same coin. different beliefs...same fanaticism.

Good to know that your position is "the only sane choice" but somehow it's the rest of us are the fanatics.

Cheech and Chong on Legalizing Marijuana

>> ^my15minutes:

and that's very true as well, gallow.
unfortunately, most people will not listen to someone they don't like.
no matter how accurate or compelling their arguments.
someone who's against pot is more likely to be swayed by Pat Robertson's recent startling admission. or by judges and cops who know the war on drugs is an unwinnable farce that only detracts from their ability to deal with actual crime.>> ^Gallowflak:
But Cheech and Chong? Come on. If the marijuana legalization movement is to be taken as seriously as we need it to be, we're going to need more articulate spokespeople. Preferably ones that don't so completely fit into the stereotype of the stoner.



Yeah, true enough. Damnit.

Levon.

From a cotton farm in Turkey Scratch Arkansas to the very pinnacle of the music world. 71 year old Levon Helm will soon be gone. Thought I'd post this tribute song written by Elton John from his 1971 album "Madman Across the Water".

Story here. http://www.ottawacitizen.com/Entertainment/Music/6474166/story.html

From the above story "Born May 26, 1940, in Turkey Scratch, Arkansas, the son of cotton farmers, he learned to play guitar and drums as a child. By 17 he was appearing in honky tonks in and around nearby Helena and taking in performance by such southern legends as Conway Twitty, Elvis Presley, Bo Diddley, and Ronnie Hawkins.

He joined Hawkins’ rockabilly band The Hawks just before they moved to Canada in the late 1950s.

In the early 1960s, Helm and Hawkins recruited Canadians Robbie Robertson (guitar), Rick Danko (bass) and pianist Richard Manuel and organist Garth Hudson. They left Hawkins and toured as Levon and the Hawks before backing Bob Dylan in the mid-60s. Fans weren’t initially receptive to Dylan’s switch from acoustic folky to electric folk-rocker, and Helm headed back south, working on offshore oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico for a couple of years until bassist Rick Danko asked him to rejoin the group that would become known around the world as, simply, The Band"

Imprisoned States of America

Porksandwich says...

I agree with the argument. But I am getting rather disgusted with people wanting to classify everything in terms of "sides" when it comes to issues like these. He has Pat Robertson on there talking about liberals doing this.

Whenever it's said, I have to wonder why that person is bringing it up now...what is their side doing wrong right now that they need to take focus off of? Because, damn near universally this seems to be the way they operate anymore and that's ALL of these "groups" in politics.

Grouping up like that makes it easier to remember who you think is an asshole I guess, instead of actually talking to them or at least cuts the pool of people down significantly. Then you just have to figure out who in your group is an asshole, and vote with him anyway because those are all the friends you have.
