    Should Alabama football players join the players' union?

    AL immigration law idiocy on full display

    Foreign-based employees of Honda and Mercedes have now been arrested and hauled off to jail while legally in the state on business, leading to worldwide negative publicity in each instance.

    Teen Abortion on MTV

    Yes, this thread is what you think it is. The reaction of the feminist author on this link can be fairly described as one of delight. The full, 30-minute TV episode in question can also be viewed on the link. The political process is being bypassed and they're going directly to the kids.

    80% of Americans oppose Citizens United ruling

    What an eye-popper! It's especially interesting to see that this poll reveals broad bipartisan opposition to the Supreme Court decision. The suggestion of such a massive majority is sure to mean that we'll soon see more polling in an attempt to verify the validity of this one. If these kinds of...

    Will the Tea Party win in 2010?

    6-9 months ago I thought the Tea Party movement might be for real. I expected them to rise up with massive force and offer a broad range of "movement conservative" candidates throughout the nation for the races of 2010. We now have fewer than 11 months until election day and I must say that I'm...
