Ah, the May Day celebrations were in full swing in Seattle yesterday. I wish the Tea Party Protests were this non violent.
One wonders if they understand when they do these type of things that they actually cost the “little guy” money in additional costs to cover the fees that replacing windows incur? Do they think that insurance premiums aren’t passed onto the consumer?
more photos here:
What in heaven’s name was this young woman thinking? Seriously, I also would like to know who sold her this dress. If I owned a business selling wedding dresses, I would let the small amount of profit go by the wayside, would you ever shop at the store that sold this?
I wanna know what the heck kind of friends or family would fail to discourage her from wearing that? Surely SOMEBODY saw what it looked like when she tried the thing on, right? WTH?
I know, don’t most brides go shopping with their mom?
Hmmmm, maybe she wanted to convey to all she wasn’t a complete fake!
It sure does leave little for the imagination, tho!
lol what a pair.
but in all honesty, people these days haha
We used to call that “no visible means of support”!
Ha!
She wanted to make sure that everybody knew it was all about her.
Mission accomplished
Maybe it’s Photoshopped.
One can hope.
I am sorry, but this is funny.
Reblogged this on U.S. Constitutional Free Press.
Would someone please explain to me just “Who” these idjits wanted to COEXIST with ?
why the mean, intolerant, homophobic Christians of course.
I thought so, but why is it that we mean, intolerant, homophobic Christians have to be the ones who must do all the changing and tolerating ?
You already know the answer to that one.
in other words YOU don’t know the answer to that one, so you’re just saying he already knows so that you don’t have to actually back up your trendy beliefs with any kind of rational argument
and sorry but it’s hilarious that you come on here badmouthing christians and talking about homophobia in a completely unrelated article… hmm i wonder who’s hateful and intolerant
What are you talking about? I write the blog and SPG is a regular commentor. He knows exactly what I am talking about, and bad mouthing Christians isn’t it.
Fascinating, isn`t it ?
yeah, I think his sarcasm meter is on the fritz and needs to be checked.

Conservative girl: YES sister, Ditto that !!

For those that have not heard, Starbucks CEO has decided that if you believe in traditional marriage you can just sell your shares. Not that he has said it exactly, but I guess you don’t need to buy their products either. Perfectly fine with me. I don’t need your overpriced drinks and sandwiches anyway.
Apparently in the name of tolerance and diversity, your views aren’t welcome.
Nice. Sigh. Have to give up my hot chocolate fix.
Reblogged this on U.S. Constitutional Free Press.
How dare he stand up for his moral convictions instead of caving to profit. HOW DARE HE!
He can stand up for his convictions all he wants, but why can’t the shareholder who happens to have other convinctions? If you want “tolerance” and “diversity” you need to accept other points of view. You can’t say you believe in those things and then tell someone who doesn’t agree with your views to get lost; unless of course you are a hypocrite.
” but why can’t the shareholder who happens to have other convinctions?”
They can, by taking their money and going home. He said as much that they were free to do that if they wanted to.
“If you want “tolerance” and “diversity” you need to accept other points of view.”
True. But why do I have to be tolerant of intolerant points of view?
I try to be as tolerant as I can. But if you hold the position that gays can’t get married, I’m perfectly fine with not having your business.
You can still hold your own beliefs, and your own opinions. But I hold a position, and if you give me your money for my goods or services I am free to use that money to support that position. If you don’t want to do that, that’s fine.
But that isn’t the issue. Any company is free to do with their profits as they see fit. Much like Chick Fil A using theirs to promote traditional marriage. The difference being that Chick Fil A has never told anyone to get lost. Who exactly is being intolerant?
As far holding a traditional view of marriage being intolerant, it is a belief system that you don’t share. It is only intolerant because you don’t agree with it. You are the one with the problem with people who disagree with you. You don’t want to accept the fact that people will differ on this issue. You are the one trying to bend your will onto others.
. You need to have a physican heal thy self moment. You are trying to force your will, not me. I don’t have a problem with the fact that agree with gay marriage nor am I trying to change your mind. You are the one that has a problem with me not agreeing with you. The very essence of intolerance.
“The difference being that Chick Fil A has never told anyone to get lost.”
Which is less honest.
If you’re going to give your money to anti-gay organizations, that’s fine. Just be honest about it. Which is why I don’t give them my money.
The CEO of Starbucks is being honest. He might not be as polite as you’d like him to be, but he’s honest.
” Who exactly is being intolerant? ”
The group with the intolerant position is intolerant in relation to that position.
“It is only intolerant because you don’t agree with it.”
No. It is intolerant because it doesn’t allow gay couples to do the same thing that straight couples do.
On top of that, I disagree with it.
“You don’t want to accept the fact that people will differ on this issue. You are the one trying to bend your will onto others. ”
Not at all. You are more than welcome to have your opinion. You are not welcome to force the rest of us to hold the same opinion, or to force the rest of us to make your opinion the automatic policy for everyone.
If gays are allowed to get married, nothing will happen to you. The reverse is not true, however.
“You are the one that has a problem with me not agreeing with you.”
No, I don’t. I have a problem with you turning your opinion into law that prevents others to act according to their conscience.
Even if gays can get married, you are still free to act according to your conscience.
Not necessarily. Catholic Charities had to stop adoptions to hold to its convictions. People have been “outed” for signing a petition to support traditional marriage and made to take leave from their position in Maryland for expressing an opinion now deemed archaic. People are free to associate, to have whatever types of adult relationships they wish, no one is beating on the doors of gay people and telling them to cease existing. However, there is a sense that if you say, “I support traditional marriage.” in more than a whisper outside of the comfort of your own room, people will deem you the very worst of monsters for daring to disagree.
“Catholic Charities had to stop adoptions to hold to its convictions.”
Actually, they just stopped receiving government funds. They chose to stop adoptions rather than using only their own money.
“made to take leave from their position in Maryland for expressing an opinion now deemed archaic. ”
Whoever did that is wrong.
“However, there is a sense that if you say, “I support traditional marriage.” in more than a whisper outside of the comfort of your own room, people will deem you the very worst of monsters for daring to disagree.”
Perhaps. But since when has ‘people won’t like me if they know I hold this position’ been a good argument to make their opinion the legal one?
A fair amount of people don’t like me because I’m an atheist and I support gay marriage. Part of me doesn’t like that, but most of me doesn’t care. Because I believe my position on gay marriage is the moral one, it’s more important to hold that position than to insist everyone like me or to even make every potential customer happy.
Bullying is always wrong, whether done by the oppressed or the oppressor, it damages two souls with one set of words. I am not making a legal argument. I am stating a social fact of our existing society.
I don’t support gay marriage because I am Catholic. I believe my position is a moral one and we should not demand everyone agree in order to “coexist.” But we are being painted as haters because we understand moral law to indicate acting on one’s sexual desires outside the context of a marriage is sinful, and as such, we do not want to promote/encourage/codify sin.
The argument, don’t support gay marriage, don’t invest is like don’t want an abortion, don’t have one. Don’t believe in birth control, don’t take advantage of the prescription mandated by the government but do pay for it. Also, don’t be a pharmacist. Don’t believe in providing abortions, don’t go into medicine.
We are losing the freedom to live out our religion as we understand it, in favor of a forced secularism that brooks no tolerance for disagreement based on moral grounds.
“We are losing the freedom to live out our religion as we understand it”
And yet, even if I accepted your argument ( I don’t ), you lose nothing if gays are allowed to marry.
You do not think I lose anything. But sin affects us all.
We understand that war has long tentacles, abuses and wounds that linger long after the shooting stops. We understand that hatred has even longer tentacles, do you not think it would be possible to see the consequences of eroding the definition of marriage to family? Already, those who want polygamy are lining up to use the same argument.
I will thank you for your argument, your courage of your convictions properly chastised mine. It is easy to say one professes something when it is popular. The reality of what one professes, is revealed when it is not.
Actually what is happening in Canada since gay marriage has been legal proves that I will not be able to keep my beliefs without consquences.
People in Canada have lost their jobs due to the own view that gay marriage is wrong and not wanting to perform the ceremonies. Families who choose to pass those morals down to their children are undermined by the state run public school systems, businesses in this country have been sued for not wanting to work with gay clients.
Another thing that needs serious explanation is why the gay community that is fighting for this is so opposed to religious protections written into the laws. Not one state that has legalized gay marriage has done this. Why? Conservatives churches are being put into a position that they may be sued in order to perform these ceremonies. Now, I am sure that once it gets to SCOTUS they would be protected, but how much money would they have to spend to get there?
You say you are looking for simple fairness, but that seems to end on the church doorways. They shouldn’t be given protections. Freedom of religion is enshirned in our constitution, marriage not so much.
What people seem to forgot about the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment is that was done to give all people the same access to the legal system when they are charged with a crime. It was never meant to talk about issues such as a maritial law.
” due to the own view that gay marriage is wrong and not wanting to perform the ceremonies.”
That’s sad. But if they work for the government, and the government allows gays to marry, then they either have to marry them or quite. Perhaps a church or two will employ them?
“Families who choose to pass those morals down to their children are undermined by the state run public school systems”
Why are you sending your children to state-run public schools if you want them to only ever encounter religious points of view?
“Conservatives churches are being put into a position that they may be sued in order to perform these ceremonies.”
No, they really aren’t. Churches won’t be forced to marry gays any more than they are forced to marry Jews.
” Freedom of religion is enshirned in our constitution, marriage not so much. ”
What about the freedom of the religions that want to marry gay people?
Churches that want to perform those ceremonies are free to. They have been doing it even before it was legalized anywhere. I have no problem with that. I have a friend who was married in a unitarian church in a state that gay marriage is still illegal. He didn’t do it for legal reasons, he did it to make a commitment to his partner in front of his friends and family. I went to the ceremony. He knows how I feel about gay marriage and adoption, but he knows that I don’t have any ill will towards him or his relationship. He also understands my concerns about the institution of marriage and he himself is against gay marriage and gay adoption. He is far more tolerant than you will ever be with all your views on morality and tolerance as long as they agree with your points of view.
Not everyone can afford private schools. As such people who pay taxes to run those schools shouldn’t be subjected to their children hearing that their parents are bigots. That shouldn’t be a great deal to ask.
As I said, if you believe in tolerance, you must agree with putting religious protections into the laws. Otherwise, it is just lip service and what you are truly saying is it is my way or the highway.
McDonalds’ has cheaper coffee…and it’s less fattening. Just saying…
Starbucks CEO: If you don’t like my political positions, you can take your money elsewhere.
Anti-Gay Marriage Folk: That makes us angry! You know what we’ll do to show you? We’ll take our money elsewhere!
CEO: Um…that’s what I said you should do.
Folk: And that’s what we’re doing! Take that!
You made me laugh at myself. Hope for both of us.
I can do you one better – I don’t drink coffee. I do admit that I do like Starbucks Zen tea, but it is sold in the grocery store and it isn’t actually a “Starbucks” brand, so I have some in my cabinet when the cravings for it arise!!!!
I don’t drink their coffee either, but I have liked the place as a hideyhole once my Borders bit the dust. Would curl up with my laptop and a hot chocolate. Now it will have to be at home.
Awesome!!!
The workforce in this country is only 155 million, approximately.
She is such an embarrassment.
Wow, quite a range of job (working people) estimates; The Blaze says, 134 million jobs, Rush said 140 and Doug Powers says 150 million. Lever the ness, Maximum Waters and Ninny Nan “500 million jobs a month are being lost” Pelosi must have gone to the same School of Mathematical Hyperbole !
I got the number from Wiki. Not always the best, but I figured close enough.
Don`t worry; after my comment I was reading somewhere else and saw a 5th number.
Seriously, how stupid are these people? Of course your premium went up. Did you think all that “free” stuff really was free?
Dolt
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Hahaha it’s like they just don’t think! No such thing as a free lunch, liberals!!
Right? It is amazing that this woman, who is intelligent, can’t grasp why her costs went up. She still won’t get it. She will just blame the insurance companies. FacePalm
I’ve yet to meet someone who supports Obamacare who understands costs for everyone will go up. Maybe if they understood that part of it, they’d come to the light
That is wishful thinking. LOL
A WISH TO LIVE FOREVER
I met a fairy who said she would grant me one wish.
Immediately I said, “I want to live forever.”
“Sorry,” said the fairy, “I’m not allowed to grant eternal life.”
“OK,” I said, “Then I want to die after Congress gets its head out of its ass!”
“You crafty bastard,” said the fairy.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Wow!
Is it cold out there!
It was so cold this morning, I actually saw a Democrat with his hands in his OWN pocket!
President Obama wishes the country a Happy Super Bowl Sunday. With a picture of himself of course. It never ends with this man.
Subject: INTERESTING– short and to the point:
Question: Is there any mental competency health evaluation reports of any of our government representatives where all can see if they are competent or just simply ‘nuts”?
Who can possibly know we are being governed by a bunch of psychotics or psychopaths?
Where are the background checks on the president before he became president or the VP who-laughs-at-anything, Joe Obiden?
In the Drudge Reports, Obiden himself says there needs to be mental health checks on all who want to possess a firearm … so why NOT on them, too?
If we have to go thru countless types mental health checks why cant they?
ALL MEMBERS OF CONGRESS SHOULD GO THRU MENTAL HEALTH CHECKS BEFORE THEY BECOME OUR REPRESENTATIVES!
Why is it that none of the disturbed and evil men, who steal guns, then go and kill movie-goers and children in school, have never been identified as a conservative NRA member?
Ft Hood~~~ Registered Democrat ~ Muslim
Columbine ~~~ Too young to vote; both families were registered Democrats and progressive liberals
Virginia Tech ~~~ Wrote hate mail to President Bush and to his staff ~ Registered Democrat
Colorado Theater ~~~ Registered Democrat; staff worker on the Obama campaign; Occupy Wall Street participant; progressive liberal
Connecticut School Shooter- ~~~ Registered Democrat; hated Christians
Common thread is that all of these shooters were progressive liberal Democrats.
INTERESTING, isn’t it?
MAYBE it’s just the Democrats who shouldn’t have guns? What do you say?

Interesting observations. I would love to see a constitutional amendment to arrest, fine and incarcerate lying politicians in stocks in public squares, courthouse or capital grounds for a minimum of 48 hrs, regardless of weather (short of severe, life-threatening stuff). Also, repeal of the 16th and 17th Amendments, among other things.
There are several possibilities here, but none include Barry shoots skeet all the time ! Only the most devoted, braindead sycophant believes that nonsense.
It`s possible that he`s shooting a toy that spews baby powder from a CO2 charge. Look at the colored barrel-tip ring.
He`s holding the butt a bit high on his shoulder. Anything larger than a .410 gauge shotgun is gonna hurt in that position. It looks like a 12 gauge, so, OUCH !
About 25 years ago, I used to shoot skeet on my Daughter`s Nintendo game. If memory serves, I got extra points by waiting till just before the skeet hit the ground to shoot it. It was more of a challenge that way too. Maybe Barry is playing by memory; it can`t be skill. Just look how he throws a baseball, shoots hoops, rides those less-than-manly bikes in his mom jeans and swings at golfs …….
Maybe someone propped the skeets up on a fence ……..
I mean the gun is going off in this picture, where the heck is the recoil? There is no way this is real.
IF, “IF” this pic is a single frame grab from video, then it`s possible it`s real. It appears to show the plastic wadding, the cup that holds the shot pellets and protects the inside of the barrel, as it is exiting the barrel. That would be the moment that his body would just begin to be pushed back by the gun`s recoil. However, in my amateur photographer mind, this “very clear and un-blurred” image could only be captured with a very fast camera speed, something not likely to be used by someone simply trying to produce “proof” of the pResident`s Skeeter Creds !
Ain`t buyin` it ……. just sayin` it`s “possible” !

“There are two ways to conquer & enslave a nation.
One is by the sword.
The other is by debt.” John Adams 1826
The Quote of the Decade:
“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America ‘s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America ‘s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, “the buck stops here.’ Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.”
~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006
“My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you’ll join with me as we try to change it.”
Barack Obama
This only goes to prove you can’t win with the left. Had the republican house stayed firm and not agreed to raise taxes they would be blaming them for that. You just can’t win with these people. Had it not been for the republicans the tax increases would have been worse.
Also, isn’t the senate run by democrats? Yeah, I think it is.
SMH
This is why our country is in trouble.
We have the likes of the Three Stooges: Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid saying one thing & doing another.
These forked tongued prevaricators will forever go down in history for trying to dismantle America! And of these three, the only one who had ever “CROTCH SALUTED” our American flag, tried to take “God” out of the DNC Platform, is responsible for the deaths of Americans at our borders & in Benghazi & solely responsible for the debt crisis we face today b/c HE-IS-NO-BUSINESSMAN … was elected president yet again by an uninformed ignorant population who have been stigmatized by the incessant consistent steady feeding of lies by our liberal Marxist-educated mainstream media.
Quote of the Day – Senator Harry Reid Edition
“Romney’s fantasy that Senate Democrats will work with him to pass his ‘severely conservative’ agenda is laughable”
Wait, I thought it was the republicans that were obstructionists? I must be confused.

Feelin` it too ! Good quotes !
Union folks no doubt ! Typical of this administration`s “No Risk” policies. Now, the rescue teams who risk life and limb to ignore gunfire and other dangers to get our wounded warriors out of danger, must wait until intel can be collected to determine if the risk to helicopter crews is worth it. Sometimes our guys don`t receive that rescue in time.

Yet, it is the Koch’s that are trying to buy elections. You have to love liberal logic.
Wow, and O`whin-o claims he was outspent in `08 and elections prior and says it looks like he is being outspent this go`round !
I learned recently that there are many lib foundations with holdings in the Hundreds of $Millions and some with over a $Billion, but fewer than 15 conservative groups with more than $100 Million and NONE with a $Billion. But WE are the big spenders on votes ! It`s just like their whining that it isn`t fair that we have FOX News CH. while they have pretty much all the rest. One against them is just too much !!!
If it comes to fisticuffs, I`m bettin` on “SpoonGuy” !
My favorite pro-2nd Amendment, pro-Stand Your Ground, pro-Self Defense slogan is, “When seconds count, the cops are only minutes away !”
Oh, yeah, OBVIOUSLY !!
Ann Romney catches the wrath of the left because, at least in part, she married, remained faithful to her Husband (and he reciprocated), bore and raised 5 children (no abortions), became wealthy without the aid of giverment, and after being diagnosed with TWO very serious illnesses did not just roll over and take a pain pill ! I`m sure being a Morman has something to do with both her decisions AND the wrath she receives !
Politico is reporting that the Obama campaign is going to go after Romney because he’s Mormon. Well, they called it “weird.”
“Unless things change and Obama can run on accomplishments, he will have to kill Romney,” said a prominent Democratic strategist aligned with the White House.
The onslaught would have two aspects. The first is personal: Obama’s reelection campaign will portray the public Romney as inauthentic, unprincipled and, in a word used repeatedly by Obama’s advisers in about a dozen interviews, “weird.”
of course he can’t run on accomplishments, so he has no other choice. This will be especially true if the courts kicks Obamacare to the curb.
I have heard that team Obama has a slew of anti-Mormon commercials all que’d up and ready to go. Friend of friend works at the WH.
How can they not be ashamed to run a campaign on that?
“How can they not be shamed …… ?” Libs have no shame !
A family in love; it`s hard to improve on that !
Merry Christmas, jacg and everyone here at POTLUCK !
An amazing photo isn’t it? I fell in love with it when I saw it.
You have a Blessed Christmas as well. I hope you get to spend sometime with your baby too!! (She is still your baby no matter how old she gets.)
Have the progs finally discovered a PC reason to avoid voting for Obama?
No, they’ll still vote for him because they’ve worked themselves into a lather believing their own lies.
No shortage….
And there`s the woman from FL who left her husband, children and home to go to NY to join the protesters and I hear she has taken up with a guy there. I see huge regrets in her near future. No crystal ball required !
Stupidity on parade !
Yeah, some guy under a tarp is occupying her (not so) private parts!
lmao
That’s just typical of the idiots at OWS. Linked to this at TCL FB.
I just lost a few brain cells.
Clearly that is a photoshopped image…
I am sure that it is. Sadly, there are people who did leave their jobs and flew from other parts of the country to be there. So while this particular person is not saying that, others did exactly what this sign says. 4 children from FL have barely heard from their mother since she flew up to NY and is sharing a tarp with a younger man.
