    Ellen DeGeneres, girlfriend plan to marry

    Wait, what????? Maybe you should take a look at the history books, because interracial marriage was decided in exactly the same way, and that was only 40 years ago. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loving_v._Virginia) Or are you saying that because society as a whole didn't accept it it...

    Two Planets Discovered By Astronomers

    Is the only reason you doubt what they can determine because you think it sounds hard? "Gee that sounds so hard, it's much easier for me to believe that they just made it up, because thats what I would do!" Please tell me thats not the argument you are making! Here's some info on how they...

    Court overturns Texas ban on sex toys

    See, you're half correct. Our founding fathers realized that democracy can be just as much of a threat to liberty as tyranny (actually more, since democracy purports to represent the "will of the people"). So they gave us the constitution which limits what the government is allowed to...

    Court overturns Texas ban on sex toys

    There was an effort to repeal colorado's blue laws here recently, and it was opposed by the liquor store owners (almost all of whom are privately run). Their reason was that, sunday is the only day off they get, and if you can sell on sunday, they won't be able to compete with large chain...

    US campus shooter 'stopped taking medication'

    Are you actually trying to make a logical connection with Pharmaceutical companies products driving people insane and this case? Because as the story notes, he stopped taking his meds, then he went nuts. Now I know I haven't done a complete scientific investigation, but the facts of the...

    Man Fired After GPS Showed He Was Not at Work.

    You have completely mischaracterized my position (not that I expected any better). I'm not claiming there is a conspiracy behind every rock, I recognizing the fact that politicans are corrupt, and power is abused, not in a monolithic evil world conspiracy way, but in a personal gain, every one...

    Court overturns Texas ban on sex toys

    I think Texans do have that choice now. Don't want, then don't buy them. I don't understand how republicans who are supposed to be pro capitalist free market would agree with laws that essentially outlaw selling objects that are "morally questionable." Frankly this law was somethng out of...

    Teens Unremorseful After Stealing From Girl Scout

    Let the punishment fit the crime (and let them learn a lesson in the process). Better than arbitrary incarceration or fines.

    Man Fired After GPS Showed He Was Not at Work.

    Always the argument from those who trust the people in power to always have our best interests in mind. What, People in power might be tempted to abuse that power? Like finding out who a reporters informant is, or which people are attending unpopular politcal groups, or who might be a...

    Oxnard student declared brain dead

    What a tragic world. Why anyone would think that an appropriate resolution to any conflict in junior high is murder is beyond me. I hope some light is shed on the suspects parents as well. They have to share some of the responsibility of their child's actions.

    WRITERS STRIKE OVER: Hollywood Back To Work!

    I find it funny that someone who is a Republican would boo the writers for negotiating for their work. Since when is it required that you perform your job regardless of fair compensation (or what you believe is fair)?

    Senate votes to extended evesdropping

    If they are terrorists, you could easily get a warrant. Why would you need to spy without a warrant unless you need to perform some abuse of power.
