"Nothing makes sense anymore."

"Like cell phones and just as annoying, politics are everywhere. Being branded a racist in today's public forum is like being accused of Communism in the '50s.  Whether it's a possibly offensive remark made in a private phone call or the indelicate treatment of a minority who sells drugs to children, the entertainment industry formerly known as the news needs villains."

"There's certainly nothing hypocritical about the media handling every perceived intolerance with complete and utter intolerance."

"It's bullshit, but it's reality."

"But I'm not racist.  Every Martin Luther King Day I order a cup of Dark Roast."

"Funny how gentle people get with you, once you're dead."
Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God?

As a Qualified Submariner and former "steely eyed killer of the deep" I am in a unique position to state with authority that Down Periscope is the best submarine movie ever made since the death of John Wayne.

Nope. Fantastic Voyage, with Raquel.

Fantastic Voyage was released in 1966, John Wayne died in 1979. :facepalm:
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

"Flush out your headgear, new guy."
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
