    Ann Romney Never Worked a Day In Her Life.

    I just find Hilary Rosen's comments bizarre. Instead of nit picking at whether or not Ann Romney should have been working in the coal mines as punishment for being wealthy, more attention should be focused on the actual implications of Rosen's quote. She brought up Romney's employment history...

    white teeth

    I wouldn't worry about looking foolish. Your teeth will only be a few shades lighter whether you have it done at your dentist or buy whitening strips. How light they get will depend on how discolored they are now.

    Why should it be 'easier' to become a citizen of another country?

    What benefit is there for any process being unnecessarily complicated? The United States should set standards for who they will accept, check those standards, then grant citizenship if a person meets those standards. I personally think we have enough unskilled laborers as it is and we should...

    The difference between upper and lower?

    I can't say that I blame them. We pay about the highest rates in the world and to be down for 10+ months without an explanation is ridiculous.

    NBC News Accused of Editing 911 Call in Trayvon Martin Controversy (Video)

    I don't understand why NBC didn't just go the whole nine yards and edit it to say "he looks like a filthy ni--er". If you're going to selectively edit something to fuel racial tension then you might as well go all out, right?

    NBC News Accused of Editing 911 Call in Trayvon Martin Controversy (Video) In the NBC segment, Zimmerman says: “This guy looks like he’s up to no good. He looks black.” The full version, though, unfolds like this: Zimmerman: “This guy looks like he’s up to no good, or he’s on drugs or...

    Current TV Dismisses Keith Olbermann

    Abhor is probably the best word. He isn't even allowed to set foot on ESPN's property anymore! That's real hatred.

    Witness: Martin Attacked Zimmerman (2)

    It does seem likely it will wind up being a financial windfall for Zimmerman. I don't envy the DA assigned to prosecute the case when it goes to trial. I honestly can't imagine what his case against Zimmerman is going to be. He obviously isn't going to be relying on eye witness, police, or...

    Perhaps in your opinion but not legally. It is honestly a matter of common sense even if you are ignorant of the actual laws.

    Witness: Martin Attacked Zimmerman (2)

    A lot of this falls on your belief that Zimmerman forfeited his right to defend himself. That simply is not the case. If eye witness and EMS testimony corroborate Zimmerman's claim of self defense then there is no criminal wrong doing. It is possible that he would be open to a wrongful death...

    You're 100% wrong here, Simon. At no point does a person give up the right to defend themselves and on rare occasion it is necessary to kill a person to do just that.

    Witness: Martin Attacked Zimmerman (2)

    I think too much television has given people unrealistic expectations of what a fight looks like. I'm no doctor but I am a boxing fan. The above photo links to highlights of Pacquiao vs. Hatton. At about 2:25 seconds Hatton is on the receiving end of that massive left where he is knocked...

    Witness: Martin Attacked Zimmerman (2)

    That just isn't true and, in fact, actually very different. Laws vary by states but each state differentiates between altercations involving a break-in and basically all other altercations. Florida's own statues on use of force states: 776.012 Use of force in defense of person.—A person is...
