Debatable. If she was aiming at Palin, she missed. T-Paw? don't know. Romney? yeah.

Please kindly start referring to him as “Gaga Pawlenty”. (Actually, trying to get that started on FR and other SNS/indie info outlets).

Huh? They hit an iceberg which was a preventable accident. Yes it does matter who is at the helm, who is in charge, directions given to subordinates and provisions such as lifeboats that are on board prior to a launch.

Poor Captain Smith was the most doomed soul there was that night. His bosses loaded him up with "the perfect accident" and then insisted that he go at top speed. I think the guy who was along on the voyage leaning on him to go fast, fast, fast was named Irsay.

Had to outdo the competition, who had just set a transatlantic record.

He was Captain. It was all his fault.

Bachmann must be over the target as the flack is getting thicker.

This story launches at the same time Bachmann hires two establishment big shots to try and pry money away from big donors.

Many more revelations like this and she won't make it to Iowa. Won't have the money. Her roaming tent revival may have worked in rural Minnesota, but it won't play nationally.

I like Bachmann. A lot. That being said, she’s no Sarah Palin. If Palin runs, she will stomp all opposition into submission. I truly believe that.

His name was Bruce Ismay; he was the coward who donned a woman's coat and tied a scarf around his head and got into one of the lifeboats when it was supposed to "women and children first". An excellent read is "A Night to Remember" a documentary by Walter Lord. It was made into a movie in 1958.

I do not understand this request. I must have missed something AmericanInTokyo.

There are many who believe, including me, that regardless if homosexuality is a genetic or conditioned desire that one does not have to act on such desires. Some churches claim to have had great success in converting homosexuals to Christianity and away from homosexuality.

Despite the publicity that the few transgressors get, most priests and nuns are faithful to their vows of chastity. If heterosexuals can do without, surely homosexuals can, too.

It never hurts to pray for anything that is for good or against sin.
