Its hard to argue against this practice when we've done it in the US 50 million times since 1973. We just call it "abortion" rather than "honor killing". At least theu have the balls to use the word "killing" while we call it "choice".

Apparently, there was a “Day of Action to Defend Public Education.” JAWA posted this today... Recovery Adviser SIEU's Andy Stern must be so proud a union member attended the rally. from Big Journalism Militant socialists were out in full force Thursday, March 4th, for a “Day of Action to Defend Public Education.” The nationwide event was organized by fringe, left-wing groups like Michigan’s “By Any Means Necessary,” Ohio-organized “Community Organizing Center for Mother Earth,” Los Angeles-based “County Peace and Freedom Party,” the “League for the Revolutionary Party” of New York, and North Carolina’s “Destroy Industry.” Video of speaker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1-QcAPiunk&feature=player_embedded

Hell no! The only good thing about living on the South Side of Chicago these days - he's not here! You fools voted for him. You break it, you buy it. You've got him until 2013.

As a bastard, I am offended.

Chicago Public Schools just announced it will provide $60 MILLION for citizen patrols to walk kids to snd from school "to keep them safe" http://www.suntimes.com/news/education/1987964,CST-NWS-skul13.article

From http://www.creativeminorityreport.com/2009/12/allah-is-just-alright-with-me.html> Creative Minority Report Now you may be asking yourself "I am happy for those Malays (being allowed to use the word “allah”), but what does this have to do with us here in the good ol' US of A?" Well I will tell you. I have considered that perhaps we should adopt the same practice here. Well, if we do and then when all these radical atheists and secularists mock God (Allah), our Muslim brothers and sisters might just express their, um, dissatisfaction. "Hey Aftab, did you hear what this PZ Meyers guy and Maureen Dowd just said about Allah? Just thought you should know." Then just sit back.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This makes it SO MUCH EASIER to read in an RSS feed reader. I don't have to scroll down the entire huge article, just the first paragraph, to decide if I want to read more. I hate RSS feeds that publish the entire article. This is WAY BETTER!!!!

My favorite read-it-first-thing-every-morning blog is http://cathcandy.wordpress.com/> Catholic Eye Candy The site, which chronicles the beauty of Roman Catholic edifices, is dedicated to the very same St Louis of France. And now, a word from my homeboy, B16… Sacramentum Caritatis Pope Benedict XVI - February 22, 2007 The profound connection between beauty and the liturgy should make us attentive to every work of art placed at the service of the celebration. Certainly an important element of sacred art is church architecture... the purpose of sacred architecture is to offer the Church a fitting space for the celebration of the mysteries of faith, especially the Eucharist. … it is essential that the education of seminarians and priests include the study of art history, with special reference to sacred buildings and the corresponding liturgical norms. Everything related to the Eucharist should be marked by beauty… so that by their harmonious and orderly arrangement they will foster awe for the mystery of God, manifest the unity of the faith and strengthen devotion.

We need to plant an undercover teenager in there. They have the ability to text message on a phone in thier pocket, never visible. Ask your kids.

Mayor Daley is wetting himself over this. "Chicago could safely host terrorism trials, if the federal government picked up the cost of the extra security required, Daley said. "THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING," he added. Therein, folks, lies the Chicago way. Patronage jobs, paid for with tax dollars = power. God help us.
