The Justice Department is arguing that companies refusing to pay for employees? birth control are somehow forcing their religious beliefs onto their workers.
That's practically rape when you think about it!
Are you forcing me to think about it against my will?

I suppose we'll see this in some 2016 PM Links.
You know, my employer refuses to pay for my guns and ammo...
it's an outrage...guns are even a right, not just a choice folks want to turn into a right.
"That's practically rape when you think about it!"
but it's not "rape rape"
A Carter-appointed judge has ruled that the contraceptive mandate, as applied to a private business, likely violates the Religious Freedom Restoration Act:

Porn star Jenna Jameson endorsed Mitt Romney for president while at a San Francisco strip club. Are there still speaking spots open at the convention?
C'mon, Scott. Spots instead of slots?
Detroit is even more dead than it appears. The city?s abandoned areas are becoming dumping grounds for murder victims.
Maybe people got some ideas after watching Chris and Snoop do their work.
IF ANIMAL TRAPPED CALL 410-844-6286
What is that number, Ravens corporate HQ?
I like to think my answer is right, despite your well-documented refutation.
I was going to go with the Browns, until I saw the area code.
410 is Maryland. I thought the Browns were in Maryland.
that's the old Browns. The new and, well, opposite of improved, Browns remain Cleveland. But they had a strong draft, despite Jim Brown's hyperventilating.
I bet Jim Brown could still play.
If by "play", you mean "beat the shit out of women", then yes. He's great at that still.
Isn't it illegal to insult Jim Brown in Ohio?
If by "play", you mean "beat the shit out of women", then yes.
Of course that's what I meant. Isn't that how everyone expresses those sentiments?
Seriously. What do you call beating women other than play?
Aren't the new Browns moving to Pittsburgh?
BTW, Warty, your Browns are sold but the guy hasn't fired the entire staff yet. Does that make you feel better or worse?
He should just strip the organization down and sell it for parts.
I'm gonna need a liver or two here soon.
Give him time. The sale isn't even final yet. He'll have plenty of time to ruin everything.
Warty... it's a Cleveland team, no matter how good they play, in the end they will choke. Cleveland is the city that has gone the longest without winning it all, which also has three major sports teams.
The zombie apocalypse has to start somewhere.
Seeing how Tampa is world famous for strip clubs, I figure this is not the last we'll hear of stripper endorsements.
Honest strippers are like honest politicians, they stay bought.
Well, someone's buying them here. I heard even the Palin knock-off is coming in town for the convention. I bet she goes to the DNC convention, too.
She'd clean up doing a domme act at the DNC. I'd guess she could seriously make $20k in a 7 day convention.
Oh, I think she could do better than that. They have weird feelings about Mrs. Palin.
Even Dems won't pay more than that without sex... will they? I mean profligate is one thing, but no fucking way is anyone paying more than $500 to not get screwed... right?
Silly person, they don't pay. They have other people pay.
I am offended by this wastefulness. You could get a 19 year old who doesn't look like Palin to go on a weekend sex and coke bender for $1500 tops. Tops.
Does that include the coke?
It used to. I have no idea what the going rate on coke or strippers is anymore. I've lived in a dry, desert land bereft of the institutions by which young women used to put themselves through nursing school for the last eight years.
You forget, everything is about politics with these people.
Funny how they all claim the Republicans have a "strong father complex" but then they spend their lives obsessing over Palin.
Here is the only problem with your business model Pro, Andrew Sullivan would go into massive debt taking every single available appointment.
I could just see him showing up with his own speculum and flashlight.
You could get a 19 year old who doesn't look like Palin to go on a weekend sex and coke bender for $1500 tops.
I think I just figured out what I'm going to do with my remaining vacation days this year.
They will pay and pay and pay. The problem is that it will be mostly your money. But Pro is right a Palin look alike domme would be irresistible to those people.
And some of the rest of us as well.
If only we could get better performance out of pols by slipping them a few bills.
THERE'S NO SEX IN SENATE CLOAKROOM.
Ladies protest topless at the Olympics
The ghost of Avery Brundage DOES NOT LIKE.
seeing as how the next Olympics are going to be in Rio, shouldn't this be introduced there as a demo event?
Social media immediately lit up in protest with one Twitter user posting, "Anybody else notice that NBC just went racist?"
joe uses Twitter?
Was it under the hashtag @Derider?
Probably. Or @ApparentlyStatist.
I think The Hammer might be MNG.
He posted a "citation please" with no other comment today. That is classic MNG.
I don't know, The Hammer kind of follows SIV around (which is like following my dog outside to take a dump), did MNG do that?
I wouldn't be surprised. They both have perfect personalities for being drawn to being anonypussies.
Another person Tweeted, "NBC is not racist. They are just careless. And Lazy."
I hope a social media firestorm erupted calling this person a racist for using "lazy"
For real? That's not The Onion, or something, is it?
Jesus.
Now random offended people on twitter are "some critics"? Fuck.
They quoted someone, anonymously, saying "unbelievable."
That's it. "Unbelievable."
I wish they'd cite HampersandR comments as "some critics".
"Some critics say that they're glad when politicians are shot."
"Critics say that officers that shoot dogs should die in a fire..."
"There are some who say ...."
Look, we're already on enough watch lists. Don't encourage people to make it worse.
if journalism was not already dead, the laziness that comes from using Twitter as a quotable source surely turns reporters into stenographers.
I swear to god that the worst thing about this country is the Manufactured Grievance Industry.
NBC is just terrible. I was watching US v. China women's water polo and the commentator had to remind us that the US was blue and the ChiComs red.
How does anyone play that sport? I can't imagine tredding water for an hour. And check out this goalie. So much for fat people not being in shape. How can she play a sport that if you are not in shape you drown?
http://www.nypost.com/p/sports.....oto_num=17
I've played it. It's a bitch.
It's also really, really fun. My swim coach used to let us play instead of having regular practice every once in a while, and it was a fucking blast.
I agree. Of course, the hardcore stuff involves opponents trying to injure you underwater.
That's what makes it fun!
word. i roomed with a bunch of swimmers/water polo players. it's also way more of a contact sport than it appears. there is a lot of kicking and shit going on underwater
^^THIS IS WHAT PATHOLOGICAL LIARS ACTUALLY BELIEVE^^
sm00ches, pip! :)
(spreading love, not hate. the best response to bigotry is loooooooooooooove)
Being fat would be an advantage in that you are more buoyant...
well, and a larger person's legs are probably still pretty powerful.
"Peak Retard?"
No. Comedy gold.
I love how people who see a monkey and immediately think of African-Americans, think other people are racist.
As soon as I saw this commercial I knew the perpetually offended would have a fit.
pot initiatives on the ballots in Washington State and Colorado are likely to pass in November
I am anxious to see whether it's Romney or Obama that crushes these states' laws under his heel.
yet another reason why...
WASHINGTON IS BETTER
(way less police power, way more privacy, over the counter needles, less draconian punishments in criminal law, no drunk in public laws, etc. etc.)
comparing to california of course, the epicenter of (political ) suckitude
Yeah WA is pretty dope for a blue state, I've had way better luck with cops not being douchebags here than in UT or ID. My biggest gripe with the state is really just the cigarette taxes, which are rendered a non-issue by my close proximity to the great state of Idaho.
cheers. WA state's blue legislature is often stymied by our very libertarian constitution (we have a right to privacy)
for example, seattle has tried OVER AND OVER to pass bullshit restrictions on gun carry. their mayor tried an 'executive order' that everybody including the state attorney general said was ILLEGAL to ban guns from city parks. a smart lawyer showed up with a gun and called police himself to report that he was there with a gun. he promptly got a trespass notice (don't come back with a gun) and had his lawsuit. seattle rescinded the law
having a liberal legislature AND a libertarian constitution works pretty well
we also have no income tax
i can't search a vehicle "incident to arrest" like in most states, a constitutional fiction that is a justified fishing expedition. war on drugs crap
our miranda law is good (not too restrictive on cops, since miranda warnings are an invented thang) search and seizure is excellent (very restrictive on cops), and we have a great balance between good accountability for bad cops AND due process rights so we have redress if bogus accusations are made
i love reading case law out of california. the shit that the cops can LEGALLY do down there is fucking insane.
my favorite is that in cali, it's not a seizure if a cop yells "stop" and a guy runs. it's only a seizure if and when he STOPS for the cop./ thus, a cop can just say "stop" and if the guy runs and dumps drugs, THEN he has pc. it's insane
And the SPD makes up for these libertarian constitutional deficiencies by being one of the most corrupt police forces in America.
But don't worry, guys! There is a libertarian constitution.
lol. complete rubbish
and before you cite the doj report, have you actuall read it?
because of course you believe the DOJ's subjective analysis about terrorism, militia threats, and all the other stuff they blow out of proportion right?
i've seen zero evidence the SPD has a problem with corruption
the DOJ claims they have a problem with uses of force, which MAY be true. although, as i have quoted stats before, they have a LOWER per capita UOF rate than other similarly sized agencies in similarly sized cities
i believe that SPD is a MEDIOCRE police agency. i know they have taken rejects from our field training program (more rigorous) and those guys have done fine at SPD
SPD *may* have a UOF problem, but the only two examples from the DOJ report i have ever seen cited were ridiculous.
even seattle's liberal extremist mayor thought the report problematic
and of course a federal agency like the DOJ would never bias a report that would give them substantially more power over local law enforcement
nope. i mean reason peeps have never opined that federal law enforcement agencies tend to want to increase their power.
They won't pass. They never do. The old ladies that vote mostly don't smoke it.

People on the upper west side of Manhattan are every bit as stupid and narrow minded as you think they are.
This was the last way to get to my house without passing some sugar haven,? said Cory Nangle, 41, who lives on West 77th Street, walking with her two children.
Then don't go in.
But that would mean telling the little snowflakes "no". And that causes a meltdown and damages their self esteem. Don't you understand?
Parents that refuse to say no piss me off.
I won't lie though, my son could easily talk me in to making a stop at the candy store on the way home.
Yesterday on the bus ride home, there as a girl eleven, who had one of those foot-long rainbow suckers that look like this:
http://www.ohnuts.com/showImag.....Tick21.jpg
Anyway, she's right in front of me licking the thing like it was a johnson. I am absolutely certain that was not on her mind whatsoever, but seeing her lick that thing, starting at the base and slowly licking up to the tip in one long stroke was so funny, that it took all I had not to laugh.
My friends daughter does that too, I think it's hilarious. Good luck with that when she gets to be about 16.
Why don't you have a seat over there.
Damn, Chris, I was wondering when you were going to find Pip.
Sugar Haven would be an awesome name for a candy store, a bakery, or a strip club.
An adult bakery/candy store?
RBS says 'peak retard?'; John says, 'it gets worse'.
Dude, who the fuck are these people? Why won't their own worry and concern just swallow them whole already and leave the sane people the Earth to do as we please?
And to the vandals of the store: Die. No, really, die. Not even kidding. Kill yourself now, you vicious cunts. If you really really want to make the world a better place... Kill yourself.
Fuck, now I'm all fuzzed up.
No pearls left unclutched. No couches unfainted upon.
These people have a mission in life.
Well I have a mission too, dammit.
It's to become the Jim Jones to the concerned class. I'm gonna convince them that the only true wayvto be worry-free is to drink this magic kool aid. The kool aid will have cyanide in it.
...and piss, cause I'm gonna piss in it when nobody's lookin'.
Fuckers.
Do you honestly think you get these upper-crust twits to drink anything as pedestrian, something so...middle class...as KoolAid? Are you daft, man!?
Now, maybe some nice Italian sparkling water or some colonic cleansing tea, and we're suddenly talking genocide.
How about just the piss, with the cyanide of course. Piss drinking sounds like a trend that concern-scum could be convinced to partake in. We'll say it cures autism and celiac disease. 'Cause every one of those fucks thinks them or their spawn has one or the other.
Open up for some alternative medicine, bitches.
"Organic Uric Foliating Skin Cleanser"
"That's right, soak it up with that sponge. Oops, you missed a drop, here's a straw. Trust me, I learned this in India."
No pearls left unclutched. No couches unfainted upon.
No panties left unbunched. No vaginas unsandy.
Someone should open a Hardee's next door so that these pricks spontaneously combust.
But a Ben and Jerry's could open without a peep. Peak retard.

Crap. Re-posting under RBS
This is the same network that ran a Today show promo about Missy Williams' winning her first gold medal, in the break before they rebroadcast the race.
Anybody see the CNN.com screencap where they link you to 'how to avoid Olympic spoilers'... under the results?
Too bad this didn't happen Monday.
Lawyers say the answer is maybe, maybe not.
Surprise, surprise, surprise!
On one side of the argument are those who say the main responsibility of the university is to protect its students, faculty, and administrators. Since Holmes dropped out of the university before the BETA group could meet, the argument goes, they had very little responsibility for him.
Emphasis added. Is anyone arguing that the university was supposed to protect *him*?
I thought the main responsibility of the university was education, but what do I know.
Good point, T.
It always irks me when some entity claims "Your safety is our main concern" or some such.
My sister in law recently became a public school teacher professional parasite. One day when the discussion of age of consent laws came up she assured me that she knew the law because "our first job it to protect the children". Hmm, they don't protect the children from the other children or from the teachers. The parents are from who they are "protecting the children".
I just quit. Asking about educating the children, or whom you were protecting them from might have resulted in a murder.
ime, teachers are woefully ignorant of even these laws (age of consent) and child stuff in general
several have told me it's illegal for them to physically discipline a child (it's not. under the RCW, they have those rights. it's against SCHOOL district policy)
i also had one call because a 16 yr old was getting #$(#$(ed by a 40 yr old. sorry, that's within the age of consent and not a crime
they also send kids home with the belief that if a parent hits them, it's "child abuse". i've had tons of kids call to report their parent for "child abuse".
like the girl who called her mom a cunt and got a slap in the face
i told her "don't call your mom a cunt"
hth
Lawyers say the answer is maybe, maybe not.
Eh, we get paid the same either way.

What about "If we don't win, you don't pay"?
