[quote][b]yeti[/b] - Reading this article jogged my memory, and I recall we used to play a football game of one vs. everyone called "Smear the Queer". I would have to think this game, although still being played, has probably adopted a new less offensive name. That being said, never did did we think we were tackling the kid with the ball because he was gay. The term "queer" in the game probably followed the definition, "someone who was different". In the case of the game, the target of all the other kids was different because they had the ball.
All that rambling aside, I'm sure the mayor was using the term in the most offensive manner. [/quote]
We played that too! Queer and [filtered word] describes what the guy does, the word gay means happy.

The olives had as much to do with this crime as the gun did in Ct. People that think like this, thinks there is nothing wrong with abortions.

posted @ Monday, January 14, 2013 - 11:42Crazy preacher preaching from the bible again!! Preacher had no idea this country could sink so far in 20 years when he said those things.
Leviticus 18:22 - You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination.
Leviticus 20:13 - If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltiness is upon them.
Romans 1:26-27 - For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.
If people were responsible and paid their bills we wouldn't have this issue. Too many people riding in the wagon and we should make them start pulling the wagon.

The cliff was what was left over from 2 years ago when the Dems didn't want to cut spending. Now the Dems got the Republicans to increase taxes and spending, when the Republicans was wanting a balanced budget amendment 2 years ago.
Looks like the Tea party needs to start running as Democrats. Some almost homeless guy in Sc got the Den US Senate nomination a couple years ago. You can win like that when your voters don't have sense enough to get out of the rain.

Rep. Regina Quick, R-Athens, was one of two local delegates to score less than an "A+" in the Chamber of Commerce's annual legislative score card. She and I played phone tag Monday when I was reporting the story and I wasn't able to get her comments in a timely fashion. Instead, she sent over this statement Wednesday morning and she did not mince her words. (Links and italicized portions are my own; otherwise, it's as she wrote it.) Dear Friends: read more
