Watch a Congresswoman Grill the Republican Who Rigged the Gov't Shutdown - Occupy Democrats
I asked Sessions honestly admitted, “That’s right, we took that away.”
At this point, she pointed out several inconvenient truths for him and his Republican conspirators, to which he had absolutely no answer, and ended her shaming with this powerful quote,”I think it is an atrocity to the rules of the house, and I think you’re putting the whole country through this angst and aggravation that we did not need to go through. This one, we could have done without, and I must tell you that I’m more and more angry now that I understand what you have done is take away our ability to really make a motion for that Senate vote.”

Gay Mormons: Wendy And Tom Montgomery Lead Push To Change LDS Church Stance On Homosexuality
Gay Mormons: Wendy And Tom Montgomery Lead Push To Change LDS Church Stance On Homosexuality
One woman told Montgomery her children should be taken away from her and given to somebody who follows the teachings of the prophet. Montgomery and her husband had to step down from their church positions — he was the assistant bishop and she was a Sunday school teacher to teens — after parents flooded the bishop's office with complaints that they were teaching homosexual propaganda that would turn other kids gay.
Their story is featured in a documentary made by the Family Acceptance Project at San Francisco State University. The Montgomerys found the organization after getting frustrated with church therapists who told them Jordan was just going through a phase. The organization works with conservative religious families to help them navigate their doctrines while also accepting their gay children.
Caitlin Ryan, the project director, has written a pamphlet specifically designed for Mormons that has been distributed throughout LDS churches in Utah. She said she believes the church is now paying attention to research that shows suicide has been a major issue with LGBT Mormon youth for decades.

VIDEO: Elizabeth Warren Says Tea Party "Anarchists" Are Full of It | Mother Jones
When was the last time the anarchy gang called for regulators to go easier on companies that put lead in children's toys? Or for inspectors to stop checking whether the meat in our grocery stores is crawling with deadly bacteria? Or for the FDA to ignore whether morning sickness drugs will cause horrible deformities in our babies?
When? Never. In fact, whenever the anarchists make any headway in their quest and cause damage to our government, the opposite happens.

U.S. Premiere Exhibit Of Calligraphic Meditation: The Mindful Art Of Thich Nhat Hanh | ABC Home“Writing calligraphy is a practice of meditation,” he says. “In my calligraphy, there is ink, tea, breathing, mindfulness, and concentration. I write words or sentences that can remind people to be mindful, to wake up. Viewing calligraphy is a meditation. When we come to the exhibition hall, each calligraphy becomes a subject of meditation. If we allow the calligraphy to touch the seed of insight in us, then we may get the enlightenment that we need. If the calligraphy touches the seed of compassion in us, then compassion will arise as a source of positive energy with the power to heal.”

Ole Miss Football Players Disrupt Performance About Hate Crimes By Yelling Gay Slurs | ThinkProgressDuring a performance on campus of The Laramie Project, the story of the beating and left to die gay teen Matthew Shepherd. Gee Ol Miss, aren't you just so terribly proud of yourselves? Who raised you to be hateful bigots? I am ashamed of each one of you. So let us ponder this...there is not one member of the team who is not gay? There is not one member of the team without a gay family member? Does Ol Miss not discuss the rate of addiction amongst adolescent gays? Does Ol Miss not discuss the high rate of suicide amongst adolescent gays? Where is the administration of the University on this?
