Sex outside marriage should be illegal, says (Alaska Gov.) Parnell nominee
Source: Anchorage Daily News

Gov. Sean Parnell's appointee for the panel that nominates state judges testified Wednesday that he would like to see Alaskans prosecuted for having sex outside of marriage.

The candidate, Don Haase of Valdez, also admitted under questioning by members of the Senate Judiciary Committee that his official resume failed to disclose his leadership role in Eagle Forum Alaska, which advocates for social conservative issues. He most recently was president of the organization, but resigned when he learned of his nomination, he said.

Haase, picked by Parnell for one of three public seats on the Alaska Judicial Council, said that he wouldn't let his personal beliefs influence which candidates he'd approve for judgeships.

... By the time the hearing on Haase ended -- there was some 40 minutes of questioning by the panel's three Democrats, some questions suggesting that Haase had attempted to scrub clean a record of extreme beliefs -- his nomination may turn on an issue of geography, not personal values.

20. And her mom
http://www.nationalenquirer.com/national_enquirer_world_exclusive_sarah_palins_secret_lover_revealed/celebrity/65481

No less than three members of the man’s family including one by sworn affidavit have claimed that Sarah Palin engaged in an extramarital affair with hus­band Todd’s former business partner, Brad Hanson.

These sources have named Hanson as Palin’s secret love, and say their affair nearly wrecked both their marriages.


Yeah, yerah, it's the Enquirer -- but they were good enough for the John Edwards haters.

Does anyone remember that study, I believe it was NewScience, that Republicans spend more on porn than Democrats (per capita)? Sorry, I can't search from work or I'd do it myself and provide the link.

If they stopped trying so hard to be "good Christians" they'd have a better chance of getting into their Heaven.

Which is about the most awesome article title ever.

http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn16680-porn-in-the-usa-conservatives-are-biggest-consumers.html

Of course it only tracks purchases, and the left is usually more tech savvy than the right. So it could just be that we're better at finding ours for free. It could also be that less of us have bizarre or frightening fetishes that require us to purchase a subscription to a site that caters to them because free sites don't, won't, or can't carry it.

Edited to add: I didn't care about Walker's emails. What I wanted to see was his google searches.

Or enforcing the 'marital aids' laws, by opening any packages that come in the mail.


You know, a massive intrusion into your privacy.

73. Is that why Newt Gingrich is walking around with that "illegal smile" (lyrics by John Prine below)
When I woke up this morning, things were lookin' bad
Seem like total silence was the only friend I had
Bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down... and won
And it was twelve o'clock before I realized
That I was havin' .. no fun

Chorus:
But fortunately I have the key to escape reality
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while
Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone
No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun

Last time I checked my bankroll,
It was gettin' thin
Sometimes it seems like the bottom
Is the only place I've been
I Chased a rainbow down a one-way street... dead end
And all my friends turned out to be insurance salesmen

Repeat Chorus:

Well, I sat down in my closet with all my overalls
Tryin' to get away
From all the ears inside my walls
I dreamed the police heard
Everything I thought... what then?
Well I went to court
And the judge's name was Hoffman

Ah but fortunately I have the key to escape reality
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while
Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone
No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun
Well done, hot dog bun, my sister's a nun

79. Alaskans would rather write in the name of Murkowski than have Miller as their senator
that's some serious commitment
