What are rights?

Is the ability to use the same streets? The right to prove oneself in the workplace, to succeed on their talent and drive alone; Handicap parking. I don't see police and signs barring people that are disabled from using those streets. According to Steny Hoyer (D-MD), "Bush signed into law 20 years ago one of the most important pieces of civil rights legislation in recent memory."

He's saying its almost as important as the civil rights act of 1965.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Amendment 10 - Powers of the States and People. Ratified 12/15/1791.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

If anything, the states should have their own regulations, not FEDERAL. Go read what Congress' job is and isn't.

On another note, while I was up still at 2 am last night when Red Eye with the rodent came on, I should have just sucked it up & watched it - He wants to build a gay bar right next door to the mosque proposed in NYC 500 feet from ground zero. My first thought was "time for a BBQ shack that specializes in pork ribs!" with large neon pig, or a Pig Stand. Hm.. I was thinking of the Pig Stands of San Antonio, it appears that they are closing. Bummer. But something with a giant cement pig on top of the building. Maybe facing mecca also. Or a Hooters.

Why do I call Greg Gutfield the rodent? I look at him, and am just reminded of one.

“Qu’ils mangent de la brioche,” Marie-Antoinette. Let them eat cake. Contrast this with Michelle Antoinette. See the sameness?

  1. I like it, a Hooters, Pig Stand and a gay bar all in the same block. Just to bad the Mosque would be only thing that would drive down the property values.

  2. Yeah I know. Normally I'm like a hooters? no way. but in this case, i think it's suitable. Was watching Undercover Boss at a friend's house in MN, the boss did such a lousy job, that the manager said he'd not hire the guy. LOL. and it was just taking out the trash, and washing pots & pans. He was too slow. If you get up to SA, check out (just I think on St Mary's) out of town, Malt House. Great prices, pretty good food for real cheap. Its been there for years. Just expect to nab a table as soon as one is open at lunchtime, as it is BUSY.

    If Bloomberg wants to suck up to this Imam with his dubious affiliation with redicals...then the gay bar and pig stand NEEDS to be put all around the mosque.

    I found the names for the bar hilarious, but I'm one of those damn insensitive AMERICANS who loves HIS country.
