Sexual violence on college campuses

There are a few, simple antidotes to the alleged campus-rape crisis: Don’t drink yourself blotto. Don’t get into bed with one of your fellow drunken revelers. Keep your clothes on.

Here is an excellant article from NRO about the sexual assault crisis on college campuses. Hint: it's all about drinking and poor choices.

Partisan hatred and mental illness

No joke, when partisan hatred gets you to the level of the people at Wonkette, you’ve gone from politically active to having a mental illness.


When a liberal blog site has slumped to a level so low that they make fun of a baby, they have crossed over to the dark side.


Mental illness is my business, and the ravings I have heard from state workers, teachers and union thugs would warrant observation and a three day hold.


If I decided to remark about Obama's daughters, maybe a comment about their looks, the clothes they wear, goofy things they do. This would be rude and uncalled for as they are just children.


But liberals can protest in front of Scott Walkers private home when he is not home but his teen age children are..RUDE. Liberals can make fun of Sarah Palins baby, but not just a regular baby, that would be bad enough, no, this is a Downs syndrome baby, so a disabled child,,, SO VERY RUDE.


So, let's get back to the mental illness, what will we call it. According to the DSM-IV we have adjustment disorders, histrionic personality disorder, that's one liberals do well. Think drums. Think shouting "shame". Think Kloppy, she looks like a ....wait, that would be rude and I don't feel like going there today.


Either way the liberals in Wisconsin and the nation teeter on the edge of the dark side. Some have even crossed over.

JoAnne Kloppenburg Wisconsin Supreme Court election recount

This post was written by my extremely bright and articulate nephew, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

Hello all!


As you all probably have heard this already, JoAnne Kloppenburg has asked for a recount of the entire state on the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, given the issues that came up from a few weeks ago. I was discussing this with my family last night over dinner and I was bent over backward on what Kloppenburg was asking for. Recounts can be very useful and can possibly change the outcome of elections, but in this case, the issue has been dealt with, yet JoAnne Kloppenburg insists on squeezing money out of our pockets.

You hear me right! Because of the Wisconsin Recount Procedures, since the difference between the votes was small enough, the cost for the recount is coming at... not JoAnne Kloppenburg...

AT OUR OWN EXPENSE!!!

Normally, if the margin of votes was larger, Kloppbenburg would be responsible for the recount's cost. The recount cost is set at $5 per ward of each county. Now, if she was just going to recall a few counties, we would be talking about a few hundred dollars, maybe nearing $1000. But instead, because she is issuing a STATEWIDE recount, it would cost her $34,530. She has the right to do this; she is a candidate.

BUT...

Her request for a recount would put citizens of Wisconsin on the paying end...

$1,000,000+

I've been checking website after website to verify this, and I have seen anywhere from $1.1 - $1.5 million it will cost, basing it on estimates for labor, new ballot machines, and other expenses combined.

WHAT A WASTE OF OUR MONEY!!!

There's a reason the electoral process is very effective and has worked, even with error. Even when human error arises, those responsible have admitted to their mistake, take corrective actions, and brought the process back to running efficiently. During the recount process, because the ballot machines are unusable for 30 days after the recount has been issued, other elections during this time where those ballot machines would normally be used still need to happen.

They will need to get new machines. Guess who gets to pay that bill...

WE DO...

They will need to get people to come in to count, validate, process, and whatever else goes on during the recount process. Guess who gets to pay them...

WE DO...

Guess who gets to pay any other expenses that come up during the recount process...

WE DO!!!

I WILL NOT SUPPORT SOMEONE WHO, BEFORE EVEN TAKING THEIR OFFICE, REQUIRES ALL TAX-PAYING CITIZENS OF WISCONSIN TO PAY FOR HER DOUBT.

IN HER OWN WORDS, "A recount may change the outcome of this election, or it may confirm it. If there is doubt, we must remove it."

I THINK SHE NEEDS TO REMOVE SOME DOUBTS OF HER OWN...

For a Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate, making us pay for HER doubt is... Just plain wasteful!!!

It’s business as usual in the Muslim world

It’s business as usual in the Muslim world.


• Afghanistan: A Muslim convert to Christianity was seized and, according to sharia's apostasy laws, awaits execution.

• Bangladesh: A Christian man was arrested for distributing Bibles near Muslims. Since Wednesday, thousands of Muslims have been rioting, injuring dozens — not because of Jones, but in protestation of women's rights.

• Egypt: A Muslim mob burned down another Coptic church and dozens of Christian homes; when Christians protested, the military opened fire on them while crying "Allahu Akbar," killing nine. Another mob cut a Christian man's ear off "according to sharia."

• Ethiopia: Muslims went on a rampage burning down nearly 70 churches, killing at least one Christian, and dislocating as many as 10,000. Christians living in Muslim majority regions are being warned to either convert to Islam, abandon their homes, or die.

• Malaysia: Authorities detained and desecrated thousands of Bibles.

• Pakistan: Two Christians were shot to death as they exited church; a Christian serving life in prison for "blasphemy" died in his cell under suspicious circumstances and appears to have been murdered.

• Saudi Arabia: An Eritrean Christian was arrested for sharing his faith with Muslims and is facing the death penalty; other missionaries continue to languish in Saudi prisons.

• Somalia and Sudan: Christian girls — including a mother of four — were recently abducted, raped, and killed for embracing Christianity.



Is this really the religion of peace or if they say it enough times are we supposed to believe it?

Come on, let’s just start calling it by the cult it is and not recognize it as an important religion that should be respected.

Read Wafa Sultan’s “A God who Hates”

As Ms. Sultan writes:

‘Why do they hate us?’ is ‘Because Muslims hate their women, and any group who hates their women can’t love anyone else.’ Why do they hate their women? ‘Because their God does.’ (p.7)
