The 9/12 Project is a political movement that claims to not be a political movement. It was started by quite possibly the most insane man in America who has a large audience who will listen to him: Glenn Beck. In short, the 9/12 Project scares me because it is the child of Beck, a known [...]
So, the interview with the colleague of Tiller made it sound to me like they only accepted patients for late term abortion if the baby was not going to live or if giving birth would kill or cripple the mother.
Turns out they also did late term abortions because of “mental anguish”? If that is [...]
With the cold blooded murder of Tiller being in the news recently, I’ve thought a bit further on my own views of abortion. I usually just say that I’m pro-life. But I think… maybe I’m not?
I hate that everyone tries to categorize people in to two groups. It feels like a “with [...]
I think it’s great.
First black president
No more Bush
No Sarah Palin
And I’m kinda a liberal, so yeah… I also think it’s great for those reasons too.
The internets are filled with all sorts of reactions.

I also got to see some other protests. One for stopping haggis. On one corner you could hear being shouted in a round-robin fashion:
“Gays! You only have [...]
Today wasn’t as eventful as yesterday. I didn’t see any obvious fools proclaiming they were fools.
I think the most amusing protester I saw was a guy in a suit holding up high an 8.5″ x 11″ piece of paper with the words “I NEED A BIGGER SIGN” on it.
Then of course, there were the [...]
Working in downtown Denver has been interesting this week, with the DNC activities going on. It’s kind of weird, but it seems to have made my commute to work easier (maybe because so many people are staying home?) and the commute home a bit longer. So no drastic changes yet in the commute.
