Voters in the commonwealth care not if she fibbed about Indian-ness to game affirmative action to become a Harvard prof.

. . . this is a by-product of living in a liberal state. Most folks here in the Bay State not only favor affirmative action but see nothing wrong with Warren’s claims even if they are dubious. In which case, Scott Brown could be in a lot of trouble.

If voters in Connecticut didn’t care about Richard Blumenthal misrepresenting his military service, is it really a stretch to imagine that Massachusetts voters won’t care if Elizabeth Warren lied about being Native American to advance her career?

Sheeple, please!

How she had her baby

How to lower expectations for a movie you might see:

What to Expect When You’re Expecting is . . . [a] timid comedy full of stock characters and clichéd humor with endings never in doubt, it wants to tell you every detail of pregnancy but none of life.

You will need an epidural just to get through the flick.

I’ll pass.  Anyhow I have my own birth stories to tell, and have told them.  And I’m not even a mother.

Not for attribution

God forgives sins?  We hear that all the time, from hundreds of preachers.  But God condemns sins and forgives sinners.  Not theology or Scriptural accuracy here (hardly) but simple (not that it’s a simple thing to achieve) clarity. 

Or the priest or lector prays for those suffering every misfortune.  No.  No one suffers every misfortune.  He wants to say any misfortune.  It’s hard to corroborate his prayer with “Lord, hear our prayer” in answer to such non-sense. 

Of course, there’s the time-honored forgive us our trespasses, isn’t there?  But forgive our trespasses we don’t say, now do we? 

Think about it.

Bleeding from the nose and back of his head . . . broken and bloody nose and swelling of his face. . . . open wound of scalp . . . . Nasal bones, closed fracture were reported by police or hospital about George Zimmerman’s injuries the night he shot Trayvon Martin, reports Smoking Gun.

And the can that fell out of Trayvon’s pocket while he was being given first aid while lying on the ground.
