Uh-oh! The Masks Are Coming Off!

Donald Pennington @Iquestionitall (229) • United States 16 Jun 17

So, it turns out, it wasn't "the Russians" who hacked the DNC servers, after all. It was, in fact, a paid agent of the DNC. Why am I not surprised? These folks lie, hire online shills, ridicule and harrass opponents as well as...

Nope, Uh-Uh, Ain't Gonna Do It

Four Walls @FourWalls (86829) • United States 27 Sep 16

I turned 18 in 1978, and I registered to vote. I've voted every year since then. Not this year. A vote is a privilege and a right. It's one of those things I'd like to think (in my naiveté) that I served to protect. It's...

Yesterday Donald Trump was speaking at Jerry Falwell's Lincoln University. I heard part of the speech where he says "two Corinthians, right?". Well I thought he was leading into a joke, like "two Corinthians walk into a bar..."....

Is Obama a Muslim?

marixworld214 @marixworld214 (9) • Philippines 21 Aug 10

I don't want to be mean to him, and honestly, he's one US presidents that I admired most. So it bothered when people start thinking he's a Muslim. There's really nothing wrong with being a Muslim, the problem is that some people...

Pastor Says Jindal Should Pay Taxpayers Back For Church Trips

anniepa @anniepa (27955) • United States 3 Sep 09

Here I thought Governor Bobby Jindal was a TRUE fiscal conservative and would NEVER waste taxpayers' money on something like helicopter jaunts to churches around the state. I guess I was wrong! Apparently Jindal spent over $45,000...

emmanola @emmanola (482) 7 Jul 09

I feel this question has been asked over and over again. During the election campaign last year some felt the media was biased in favour of Barack Obama's candidacy. This same question is still being raised by some people. What do...
