Evangelical Christians are tying themselves to an institution—the GOP—that is actively alienating college-educated voters, minority voters and younger voters. Evangelicals are thus entrenching a public perception that their movement consists of old, white Christians who want to restore lost social status through political power. Maybe this is because the perception is often accurate.” ~ Michael Gerson, The Washington Post

Quote of the Day
What angers me the most about the Republican Party’s attempts to turn the U.S. into a far-right Christian theocracy is how dishonest they are about it.

Preach, sister.
They’ll never do this, because they know the American public will outright reject it. But if they do it under the equivalent of the cover of darkness, like boiling a frog no one will realize what’s happening until it’s too late.
Fuck the Republicans. Each and every last one of them.

Preach, sister!
So many guys claim to have 10-11 inch dicks that it makes me think they need to start learning how to measure them correctly.
Newsflash: your penis doesn’t start from your butthole!
Also, whilst we’re on the topic, some of you need to learn very quickly that a 6 inch dick is NOT small. Despite what porn has conditioned you to believe, It’s not supposed to the the size of your forearm.” ~ Nick
