Well, I guess North Carolina will now suffer the obligatory rain of toads and blood before suffering an eventual mega-drought.

Their religious opt-out for performing gay weddings may temporarily appease the god of wrath.

ā€œInteresting that his lap dog, Thomas, didnā€™t join him.ā€

Heā€™s a Senator now (pause) and busy putting legislation together banning those annoying ā€˜Employees Must Wash Handsā€™ signs in bathrooms across commercial America.

BTW, itā€™s Thom Tillis and yes (pause) heā€™s my senator.

I think heā€™s talking about ā€œUncleā€ Clarence and not Tillis.

It amazes me that back when Kennedy was running, people were afraid he would listen to the Pope on controversial issues.

Now we have 5? Justices who are Catholic on the Supreme Court and no one worries. Except the Left.

I canā€™ trait for the day they rule that birth control is unconstitutional.

Dear Associated Press?

How on earth could you leave the actual vote count OUT OF THE ARTICLE?

Was it 8-1?

Impossible to tell. What shoddy journalism.

Thank you. Astonishing that the AP left out that rather important detail, isnā€™t it?

That,s twice in the last week or so. Is this a new trend?

Right. Iā€™m still obsessing over Haganā€™s loss. Her staff actually helped me out on a personal issue a few years back.

Okay, show of hands of who had Scalia in the TPM pool?

:blush:

Can they just strike down NC in general and be done with it. Seriously though, donā€™t these right wing fanatics have a life or is it all abortion all gay bashing all the time?

When these numbnuts get on a crusade, they donā€™t know how or when to quit. Abortions, legal-illegal safe or unsafe are going to happen and always have. Their concerns for the unborn life ring hollow considering that they have little concern for the lives of their fellow citizens after birth or those not in their tribe.
Religion is a bigger plague on America than any religious crusade could ever be. Separate church and state and uphold Roe v Wade.
