One Utah

Figleaf at the not always safe for work Real Adult Sex had this to say:
Although it’s been many years since I was a member I grew up in that church. My youngest brother’s ashes are there. The last time I went, last year, my father introduced me around, so proud that I’d come back. [...]

Okay, so this pathetic whack job shoots up a Unitarian church and they interview someone who knows him and she says:
“He never went anywhere. He never had anybody over. Just, it was really quiet. He rode a motorcycle and you know he would go out on the weekends on his motorcycle, but other than that, [...]

PZ Myers was righteously and correctly offended at a nonsense nonissue kerfuffle over a student “stealing” and “holding hostage” a communion wafer. The story goes something like this: the student went to Catholic communion service, didn’t eat the wafer immediately, was physically assaulted by someone trying to force him to eat the wafer [...]

As a gesture of thanks to JD Berger for his dedication to the National Conversation and commitment to getting as many guns out there as possible, I have purchased, on behalf OneUtah’s great authors, “Top Spot” on JD Berger’s “The Real Gun Guys.”
For $5 bucks, even if he breaks the agreement (*and keeps my money) [...]

The Texas Polygamist raid is a PR disaster for the Mormon church.
Last night, Larry King did his best impression of a journalist and interviewed people who have left polygamy - all with the LDS Salt Lake temple in the background.  The repetition of LDS/Mormon and polygamist/polygamy is undoing decades of work by mainstream Mormons to present [...]

I’ve blogged about suffering from migraines.  At the time I described a migraine as not unlike having a short term mental illness.  The pain of a migraine can be debilitating, pain so intense at times that I’ve rubbed my temples so hard I’ve bruised them.  Migraine pain interferes with your ability to see, to think, [...]

The corporate media circus exposed via BradBlog in all it’s commercialized glory. Don’t miss “Lapdogs Of The Corporate Press!“

The New York Times reports on March 19 that whereas the Bush administration sold the Iraq war to the congress as a $50 billion investment, the actual costs are more like–
1.) ultra-conservative Pentagon estimate: $600 billion and counting
(note: this Honest Abe estimate categorically excludes “extras” such as operations in the war zone, [...]

I am the first to admit, I have finally lost my marbles over the idiocy of the male gender of (my gender) our species. To wit, Bush and the few millions of U.S educated - supposedly - Americans.
Sign the damn petition if only to show these criminally stupid people that WE are many more [...]

Come one, come all pundits on this blog, to a penetrating quantitative analysis of Presidential greatness versus experience at–

(scroll down to “Is an Experienced President a Good President?”)
———————————————-
Conclusion: no correlation whatsoever!
My meditation:
According to this data, LBJ, with 27 years in the Congress, is the number two most experienced president and for my [...]

I’ve been trying to write an appropriately sarcastic and ironic response to our state legislators opposition to the IB program. It’s almost impossible to satire someone who does not know the difference between “socialization” and “socialism.” It’s equally difficult deploying sarcasm in response to someone who thinks the any positive mention of the [...]

I think we are reaching a nadir in the American consciousness. There are so many indicators both large and small. The surprising populist movement lead by Barack Obama is an obvious one. The changing language and focal points of the Right-Wing are another. Almost no one is left in the media nor in politics [...]
