As Gomer Pyle Would Say: SHAZAM! In an astonishing admission of naiveté and ignorance, Lindsey Graham confessed that he didn’t know until yesterday how “disconnected from reality” Harry Reid is. For years, Graham has been lecturing Tea Party voters and other conservatives that only he, Lindsey Graham, knew his way around Washington and how to deal with Democrats. Not so much it turns out. “This really shows how disconnected from reality Lindsey Graham is,” said Lee Bright, the leading challenger to Graham in the June 10 Senate Primary. “He and John McCain just can’t wait to call people like Ted...

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Twenty-six women who say they are in love with Roman Catholic priests have written to Pope Francis urging him to make celibacy optional. The women, who all live in Italy, described the "devastating suffering" caused by the church's ban on priests having sex and marrying. "We love these men and they love us," they said in their letter published on the authoritative website Vatican Insider. "With humility, we place at your feet our suffering so that something can change, not just for us but for the good of the whole Church," they added in the message,...

No one would accuse Jaroslav Flegr of being a conformist. A self-described “sloppy dresser,” the 53-year-old Czech scientist has the contemplative air of someone habitually lost in thought, and his still-youthful, square-jawed face is framed by frizzy red hair that encircles his head like a ring of fire. Certainly Flegr’s thinking is jarringly unconventional. Starting in the early 1990s, he began to suspect that a single-celled parasite in the protozoan family was subtly manipulating his personality, causing him to behave in strange, often self-destructive ways. And if it was messing with his mind, he reasoned, it was probably doing the...

PHOENIX (Reuters) - An Arizona judge on Monday set a September court date to try again to determine whether convicted murderer Jodi Arias will be put to death for killing her ex-boyfriend nearly six years ago, court officials said. Arias was convicted by a jury in May 2013 of murdering Travis Alexander, whose body was found slumped in the shower of his suburban Phoenix home in June 2008. He had been stabbed multiple times, shot in the face and had his throat slashed. But the jury deadlocked on whether the former California waitress should be executed or face life in...

Ukranian model Valeria Lukyanova, who lives her life as a 'human Barbie' has revealed she doesn't consume food or water anymore. Some have said she uses plastic surgery and Photoshop to create her doll-like image, but her impossibly thin waist could actually be down to not eating for weeks. The model, 23, has said she is now converting to 'Breatharianism' - training herself to live off only light and air. 'In recent weeks I have not been hungry at all; I'm hoping it's the final stage before I can subsist on air and light alone,' she has said. The model...

WINNIPEG -- A man who beheaded and then ate parts of a fellow passenger on a Greyhound bus almost six years ago might soon be granted unescorted day trips outside his mental hospital. Vince Li's psychiatrist says the one-time undiagnosed schizophrenic has not been violent, no longer suffers delusions and has made tremendous progress. "From a clinical perspective, he has progressed excellently," Dr. Steven Kremer told a Criminal Code Review Board hearing Monday.

WESTMINSTER, June 28, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) – From now on, in government documents in the UK, the terms “husband” and “wife” will not have any relation to the sex of the person they describe; a man can be a wife and a woman, a husband. In anticipation of the passage of their same-sex “marriage” bill, the British government has drawn up a set of rules that will now be followed on all official documents on how human relations will be addressed. In the explanatory notes in “The Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill,” the government has “clarified” that the bill will not...

WASHINGTON — Speaker of the House John Boehner lambasted the climate plan that President Barack Obama is set to release in the next few weeks as “absolutely crazy.” White House energy adviser Heather Zichal announced Obama will release his second term agenda on climate change in July, the New York Times reported Wednesday. Speaking in Berlin on Wednesday, the President pledged “we will do more,” on climate change. One specific component of that plan, according to the New York Times, will create “regulations limiting carbon dioxide emissions from existing power plants.”

The president´s recently formed grass-roots campaign operation revealed Thursday that it plans to attack Republicans who question radical global warming hype, dubbing them "crazy" purveyors of "far-fetched conspiracy theories." In a fundraising memo from President Obama´s re-election campaign manager, Organizing for Action slammed "climate deniers" and their doubts, which Jim Messina compared to the nutty things a crazy uncle would say at Thanksgiving dinner. After listing some of the arguments critics make against the president´s drive to use regulations and taxes to curb carbon dioxide emissions he believes are contributing to global warming, Messina wrote: "Sounds like things your

LED Zeppelin frontman Robert Plant has taken out a restraining order against a crazed fan after she bombarded him with threatening messages, it is reported. The rock legend, 64, is even said to have hired a security team in the wake of intensifying harassment from the deluded groupie.

A man seducing and corrupting the moral purity of an unmarried woman is a felony with possible prison time. Displaying a sports team bumper sticker without being a member of the organization is a misdemeanor. Throwing a few bucks into the office college basketball tournament pool is illegal gambling. And playing the national anthem for people to dance to is prohibited. Though routinely broken and ignored by citizens and government officials, these laws and more are on the books in Michigan. In fact, there are so many statutes in the state code that it is likely every resident would be...
