Current news, stories of interest, humor, and photography… a motley of what's in the news today
I cannot believe I’m actually admitting and saying this, but the Westboro Baptists Church actually did something I like – well, more truthfully, I think is a hoot! They ridiculed poor Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk who’s refused to issue same-sex marriage licenses! Personally, I place Davis at the top of a list of today’s hyprocrites and WBC called her on it.

SENATE BILL 1062 was passed by the Arizona Legislature on Thursday. A bill with the purpose of making it legal to discriminate, primarily towards same-sex couples. The “Anti-Gay” Bill is now on it’s way to Jan Brewer. (My head hangs low and shakes in disgust.)

Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy has received a torrent of reactions, both opposing and supporting, to his recent comment: “I think we are inviting God’s judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at Him and say ‘we know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage’ and I pray God’s mercy on our generation that has such a prideful, arrogant attitude to think that we have the audacity to define what marriage is…

One John Bowles registered with the Clerk of the House that day as a lobbyist for for the white supremacist group. Bowles was the National Socialist Movement’s presidential nominee in 2008.

In an interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan, actor Morgan Freeman stated, ““The tea partiers who are controlling the Republican party…their stated policy, publicly stated, is to do whatever it takes to see to it that Obama only serves one term.
