your angst fits right in with Akin's thinking on women.(guess they may as well go to hell )

these conspiracy theories are so tiresome.
way too many spy movies.

I find no difference between this dude and that what's his dead name? Brietbart? or drudge for that matter.

and one wonders why the media is garbage these days and has been since people like this took down Dan Rather.

one always has to side with a person when they say they are raped, otherwise, not one cry of rape will ever be listened to.

same as one needs to look at all evidence old and new when one is on death row, so as not to have one innocent person killed wrongly.
