I haven't seen that annoying "greed is good" advertisement lately. Good riddance.
Also, Adblock Plus plugin for Firefox works really well to block the annoying animated advertisements on the right-hand side of the page.
Texas, Lexis, wife, bitches.....just thought I'd get that out of the way early.

Scalia is clearly a homophobe. Just read his Lawrence dissent. He doesn't even try to hide it.
Is Adblock really any good? 2-3 years ago, it was notoriously unstable and had a tendency to crash computers. (A tendency which I personally have verified.) But maybe the Mozilla folks have improved it since then.
5, your schtick is flaccid. Please desist.

6 - You understand neither Scalia's Lawrence dissent nor the meaning of "homophobe".
Is it bad that flaccid shticks make me horny?
6- Carefull, 11 will soon want you to apologize to the new GOP posterboy- Rush Lim...er whatever....crap....
Lawrence, Shmawrence. You don't need a weatherman to tell which way the wind blows.

"The ACLU: We've never met a terrorist we didn't like!"
No need to defend against critics Barney. We can take judicial notice of the fact that Scalia is a homophobe. The Pope told him he had to be.
If you google "titanic," you come up with about 3 million images that would be better than the one used for this post....the "editors" of ATL aren't even trying anymore.
Tariq Ramadan is a terrorist enabler and defender and is actively undermining Europe and Western Civilization. He most certainly should not be admitted to the United States.
Funny how liberals all of a sudden arent so incensed about the executive branch trampling on the Constitution... Hypocrisy the one enduring liberal ideal.
I don't want somebody sucking up to me because they think I'm going to help their career. I want them sucking up to me because they genuinely love me.
If we're going to start impugning the motives of a Justice who simply states what is and is not constitutionally permissible (as opposed to what is desirable), then we can likewise impugn the motives of the know-nothings who call him a "homophobe": They are just scared about the future of their kiddie-porn rings.
Not 11.
jesus dude- that's the stattendam in front of hubbard glacier... couldn't you find a more convincing pic than that?
and yes, it horrifies me that I recognize it.
Why is it most hetrophobic homosexuals call intelligent people homophobes?!!!
It's just juvenile name-calling - I'm sick of it!
What's up with that?!
23 - You're welcome to try that, but there's a major difference in terms of plausibility and accuracy.
26 - Do tell.
Europe's leading muslim intellectual = TTTerrorist
