At some point in your life you have to decide you want to thrive. The chance to thrive or not depends on the politics of the day. Sadly, in North America there has been and currently is a purposeful effort to destroy the opportunity to do so.
If progressives would stop obsessively hating any conservative person or idea they may lead happier lives. The lefty website Gawker thought it would print yet to be published excerpts of the newest Sarah Palin book called America by Heart : Reflections on Family, Faith, and Flag Well Sarah Palin complained and Gawker put up a condescending post telling Sarah to look up Fair Use law or if the reading would be too boring to call her lawyers to walk her through it. Well I checked back and Gawker have changed the post. They have now added an injunction letter and have removed the smart-ass comment. You can find a copy of injunction at The Other McCain
And look at that! The excerpts are now gone. It looks like the Sarah Palin legal team led the Gawkers through a fair use walkthrough of their own.
If there ever was a religion that needed some defaming it would be Islam as practiced by a handful of middle eastern countries. The Organization of the Islamic Conference wants the UN to adopt a resolution on the defamation of religions. What that means is no one should be allowed to report any facts about how destructive and uncivilized Islam is as practiced by many Muslim countries.
In Saudi Arabia perverts can marry Muslim girls as young as 10 years old. "If a girl exceeds 10 or 12 then she is eligible for marriage, and whoever thinks she is too young, then he or she is wrong and has done her an injustice," Sheikh Abdul Aziz told an audience in Riyadh University last year. A man who married a 12 year old girl explained that it was difficult to consummate their marriage and that it took, "several attempts over two weeks" to accomplish. Asia Bibi in Pakistan refused to renounce Christianity and was attacked by a mob and had to be arrested to keep her safe. She has been in jail for over a year and was sentenced to death last Monday. See how they feel about religious defamation?
I found this new video from Pat Condell on the subject of the ridiculous Defamation of Religions resolution.
