Reminiscent of all the rich people who were going to go Galt and stop working if Obama became president. He did, they didn't.

I remember one preacher who talked about how as a kid his father would whip him raw, then demand his son hug him and thank him for loving him. Made me want to vomit.

From the way Mom is talking, I think the "poison" is homosexuality, not pedophilia.

Technically he renamed it for some other General Bragg. I've read the Confederate die-hards weren't happy with the tricks.

Paul Pressler, one of the founders of the Southern Baptist Conference's turn into a right-wing Republican machine, was gay, and assaulted young teenagers. And SBC blithely covered it up and revered him as a right-wing icon.

As others have said they’re so stupid it’s almost impossible not to think they have some elaborate strategy behind it because nobody’s that moronic, right?

Scott Yenor, "esteemed"? The misogynist who complains we should go back to the days of public men and private women?
Anything he says is bullshit by default.

A good point.

We can assume Alito and Thomas have their buyers yanking their chains. Kavanaugh probably hopes to end up supreme judge in an R dictatorship. Roberts has apparently decided he'd sooner support fascism than pretend to be a wise solon.

From the studio's perspective it's probably a worthy investment to please Glorious Supreme Leader. And I imagine the Felon's toadies will assure him the grosses are spectacular, bigger than Taylor Swift could dream of!

It puts me in mind of Rod Serling’s observation in Requiem for a Heavyweight: first you get a thousand a week (we’re talking 1950s money — today that’s over ten grand a week) and it’s unbelievable! Nobody can spend that much! A year later, you’re spending that much.'
If you think $10 million is enough, you will never make $10 million
That insight came from entrepreneur and business guru Harvey Mackay back in the 1990s (I browed his books when I worked at Waldenbooks). I think there’s a definite truth to it. For a lot of r…

Nor was the Roman slavery in the Bible worried about race.

Lots of reporters tend to be dreadful dealing with the religious right, accepting their statements about faith and "biblical worldview" at face value. But yes, Douthat sucking up is that much worse.

I'm quite sure despite the lack of any racial basis for Biblical era slavery, Wilson knows who the slaves should be.

I cannot say I am surprised Douthat would pick the wrong side.

I defy you to name anyone who has a better sense of popular culture in 2025 than Speaker Mike Johnson.

Johnson: Replace Bad Bunny With Lee Greenwood - Joe.My.God.
“I didn’t even know who Bad Bunny was, but it sounds like a terrible decision, in my view. It sounds like he’s not someone who appeals to a broader audience. “There’s so many eyes on the Super Bow, a ...

No, not fine. He's fine with the fear but he'll insist the decision is totally unrelated to the pure and noble baby-savers of the forced-birth movement.

Of course if the hospital refuses to treat you for fear Republicans will charge them with abortion, Mike "Biblical Worldview" Johnson is fine with that.

Not only is every accusation a confession, every ban they propose is a confession.
