“Joseph jacked off until he came, and put his seed into a turkey baster, and gave it to Mary, who squirted it into herself, and she conceived;

And, nine months later, she gave birth to a son, whom they named Jesus.”

I seriously think it was more like Mary jacked off Joseph while he was sleeping one night and just impregnated the hell out of herself.

I mean if girls these days needle condoms…..

Or at least the facts they have uncovered.

God I’m tired of this “more government” meme. Politics would certainly be a lot easier to understand if all forms of legislation, regulation and enforcement were reducible to a single fungible slurry called “guvmint”, and it’s a lot easier to make libertarian arguments if you pretend that it is. You just have to hope no one goes nuts and applies ten seconds of thought to your argument, because in that case they could be forgiven for concluding that you’re stupid.

I think you’re missing the point here. Certain characteristics empirically specific to the social institution we know as ‘the guvmint’—more precisely the contemporary nation-state—create an incentive-information structure that results in the same sort of (mostly bad) things when applied to humans. One of those characteristics is the mass ideological legitimation of the mass violation of general rules of just conduct, such as the proactive interpersonal use of coercion (or ‘violence’ as President Obama put it). It has far-reaching and predictable consequences. When the legal scope and/or scale of the government is expanded, when you have increased government power and intervention, ‘more government’ as it were, then you ceteris paribus have more of these bad things… like police brutality and bank bailouts and generic cronyism.

To put it very simplistically for context of the photo, the protesters are (supposedly) calling for more government and more government entails more coercion which is what they’re immediately combatting. They don’t understand that what they’re calling for entails and will result in more of the bad things they’re protesting.

Exactly.

No, we don’t think you’re joking.

That fact that he IS joking about this is sick and insane.

Yes, let’s make a joke about predator drones, Mr. President. Let’s make this joke while your Administration’s policies are killing countless foreign peoples with predator drones. The people whose lives ended so tragically because of your foreign policy didn’t see them coming, either. This is offensive.

He could have stopped at, “…but boys, don’t get any ideas.” That would’ve been just fine. 

The audience laughs. Heartily. Where was he? Some kind of convention for sociopaths and psychopaths?

The sky is blue because light from the sun enters our atmosphere it collides with molecules in the air.  The blue part of the light gets scattered more than the other parts during these collisions and thus makes the sky appear to our eyes as blue.  If the light from the sun took a straight path down to our eyes with no scattering or absorption in the atmosphere, the sky would in fact look much as it does at night in the day time.

…I’m a nerd.

I don’t think the ability to copy-paste something from Yahoo Answers classifies you as a “nerd”, sorry.

This is delicious.

As a Canadian currently living in Canada I can confirm that this is true.

I had to receive this missive by telegraph, and my response was carried by pigeon to my colleague from the internet.

• Dr. George Tiller’s killing was not justifiable homicide, it was murder.
• Blowing up abortion clinics is terrorism.
• Defacing and covering abortion clinics in graffiti is vandalism.
• Chanting “You’re next!” at doctors and clinic administrators is threatening them.
• Preventing patients from entering a clinic by shouting at them, distracting them, walking in front of them, blocking their way with your bodies, or preventing them from exiting their cars is harassment.

You’re not a good person if you in any way, shape or form support, defend, or ignore any of these actions. Stop deluding yourself.

The same goes for your support of your soldiers fighting your foreign wars.

• The men, women, and children they kill are not enemy casualties, they are murder victims.
• Blowing up foreign bases, hospitals, factories, and homes is terrorism.
• Flying our flags in their countries is vandalism, worse, really.
• Talking about Iran like they are somehow a danger to us, one that we will have to supposedly defend ourselves against, is threatening them.
• Preventing civilians from moving freely around their own countries, making checkpoints, and demanding papers, is harassment.

You’re not a good person if you in any way, shape or form support, defend, or ignore any of these actions. Stop deluding yourself.
