What a world we live in! Women are stoned for their adulterous affairs but a Congressman from Louisiana receives a standing ovation from his Numb Nuts Party, aka Republicans, for his adulterous affairs. This is the same Numb Nuts Party that runs on elections stressing family values.

@Jeanie, yes, at first, they will get their jollies in seeing liberal women stoned. Please remember that Fox is never a happy camper unless more and more of God's children are slaughtered. They are vampires in their lust for human blood. If you look closely at the faces of Fox people, their smiles will reveal the gorging of human blood and small drops of blood escaping from the sides of their mouth.

From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
Just get 'em stoned.
