schizophrenics are the canary in the coal mine for us right now. I agree. They're very sensitive to their emotional/psychological environment, and right now, I can tell you...it ain't good.

The mentally ill seem to be strongly attracted to Obama for some reason right now.

Probably just another Tunisian fruit vendor trying to start an American Arab Spring riot.

I am sitting next to a lacrosse practice field having to explain to my wife why am laughing. Then I had to double explain why I am laughing at a ‘Man sets self on fire’ story.

“honk for no shutdown” means what? support House (and Obama should) cave or support Obama (and boner should cave)?
To: Rome2000
Since the Confederacy. Sorry, but at that point, Lincoln had a lot of reasons to go forward.
Are you aware that Southerners were also invading Latin American states trying to set up a slave empire? They tried to buy Cuba but Spain turned them down, and then they invaded a few smaller Latin American countries (such as Nicaragua in 1855 with the William Walker invasion).
These invasions were eventually defeated, but the people who saw slavery as their hill to die on were the ones who were behind Ft Sumter. Most of the South didn’t feel that way, but once it started, I really don’t see what else Lincoln could have done. And he did preserve the Union.

I remember those scenes vividly. It was a ‘hot’ topic that year.

That was one of my late father’s favorite quotes. I believe he attributed to Woody Allen. It’s true in any case.
