How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

So my mom left her facebook open and I found this gem. Not too sure what to think about it.
I…
What Christian message was in The Hunger Games because I missed that one.
More like Saruman took over Isengard…
Just out of curiosity… you’ve read the book, right? They left this out of the movies, but Saruman does indeed come back and take over the Shire. The way he takes over is subtle of course, but basically he exploits the comfort and fear of the hobbits to do it, and Merry, Pippin, Sam and Frodo have rouse the people of the Shire to get him out.
I mean I’m just saying, Takei’s analogy is a little more spot on here.

PAGANS! Bow down before the one true GOD!
Santorum looked wantonly into Romney’s eyes. “Please… Fuck me, Mitt. I need you in my asshole.”
The other scrutinized Santorum, who wore lace lingerie in order to try to seduce him. It was clearly working, Romney was developing the biggest boner. “Shut up, bitch and bend over.”
Santorum eagerly bent over, spreading his nice ass cheeks. Romney undid his pants and took position. “Bite the pillow you whore, I’m going in dry.”
This is so moving.
Thank you magnificent person.
You have served the world well ♥

Santorum's Rise and the Shocking Power of Future Shock
Do not underestimate Rick Santorum. He has a powerful wind at his back. His journey from homophobic Internet-joke to the top of the Republican field is being propelled, in part, by his tapping into a deep longing for a simpler, less technological time. [If you are not in on the Internet-joke, please click the link]. Whether by design or by accident, Santorum is capitalizing on our collective exhaustion from living in an ever-changing technologically-mediated future. The future has become our now and, well, lots of people are not so impressed. Truth be told, some are pretty tired of the whole thing. By being the anti-science, anti-progress candidate, by showing he too suffers from our collective “future shock,” Santorum has made “santorum” work for him.
The contrast with recent Democratic presidents could not be more striking. Clinton, like the Fleetwood Mac song that animated the first campaign, never wanted to stop thinking about tomorrow. And today Obama is all about tomorrow: “hope and change,” “winning the future,” an American economy “built to last.”
But Santorum’s campaign is in the past tense. The poetry of his campaign is to fight for an America that used to be. He’s a self-described “champion of traditional American values” with “The Courage to Fight for America.” And if that’s not enough, as stated on his campaign web-page, all you have to do is “donate $100 or more using the form below, and we will send you an official Rick Santorum For President sweater vest. Perfect for demonstrating solidarity with true conservatives.” No fashion-forward thinking here, let’s dress like it’s the 50s! And in doing so change the tense of American politics from the future to the past.
Of course, a campaign built on the appeal of “sweater vest culture” would not work at all were it not for one thing: The future is not turning out to be as amazing as we were told it was going to be, despite having all the next great things. Everything is faster, just not better.
This is the kind of shit that I have nightmares about.

Santorum Takes Climate Change Denial To A Biblical LevelClimate change denial has become a litmus test for modern Republicans, but Rick Santorum, in his fondness for melding faith and government, has become one of the precious few to cite the Bible as evidence that the science-accepting crowd has it all wrong — and apparently the first to bring that thinking to the presidential stage.
“We were put on this Earth as creatures of God to have dominion over the Earth, to use it wisely and steward it wisely, but for our benefit not for the Earth’s benefit,” Santorum told a Colorado crowd earlier this month.
He went on to call climate change “an absolute travesty of scientific research that was motivated by those who, in my opinion, saw this as an opportunity to create a panic and a crisis for government to be able to step in and even more greatly control your life.”
THE ENTIRE WORLD IS WATCHING THIS HAPPEN IN AMERICA! THE ENTIRE WORLD! Yes that was in all caps because I was yelling. I’m so embarrassed and I’m not the one saying this shit. But people will say, “Americans are stupid” not just Santorum and his ilk. I can’t not blog about politics because our politicians have turned into televangelists. Un-freaking-believable! ~ Kim
I can’t tell if my face is red from the facepalming or the embarrassment…
This literally made me sick.
The right to… not be grossed out by gay people? What right was stripped away? Seriously, somebody explain to me how a law that allows people to get married “strips away” rights from others.
Oh, hello there Rick Santorum. Did you read the decision? You might be interested:
Proposition 8 worked a singular and limited change to the California Constitution: it stripped same-sex couples of the right to have their committed relationships recognized by the State with the designation of ‘marriage,’ which the state constitution had previously guaranteed them, while leaving in place all of their other rights and responsibilities as partners—rights and responsibilities that are identical to those of married spouses and form an integral part of the marriage relationship…By using their initiative power to target a minority group and withdraw a right that it possessed, without a legitimate reason for doing so, the People of California violated the Equal Protection Clause. We hold Proposition 8 to be unconstitutional on this ground. We do not doubt the importance of the more general questions presented to us concerning the rights of same-sex couples to marry, nor do we doubt that these questions will likely be resolved in other states, and for the nation as a whole, by other courts. For now, it suffices to conclude that the People of California may not, consistent with the Federal Constitution, add to their state constitution a provision that has no more practical effect than to strip gays and lesbians of their right to use the official designation that the State and society give to committed relationships, thereby adversely affecting the status and dignity of the members of a disfavored class. The judgment of the district court is
AFFIRMED
Sounds like some people got their rights stripped, and it wasn’t the people who voted for Prop(H)8. But I can see how you’d get confused, Rick. With your head so far up your own ass, I bet your view of the world around you is rather limited.
And shit like this is why I have a visceral reaction to Christian privilege.

Santorum Booed After Comparing Gay Marriage to Polygamy
On a visit to a college campus Rick Santorum was asked about gay marriage, his response was “what about three men?” Cenk Uygur discusses this ridiculous response by Santorum.
Source: http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/01/05/santorum-gets-booed-after-claiming-same…This is one of the tamer comparisons from Santorum.
People need to boo Santorum wherever he goes until he never walks the face of the earth again. I hope he dies in pain, weeping and alone.
I think I’ve mentioned how much I hate this guy. Yeah? A few million times maybe?
