This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Perhaps THIS is what you meant to post:

JetBlue flight attendant who went nuts was in bed with boyfriend when found by cops

At least that version fits this topic, sort of...

Dear Lester,

Can you get me some of whatever it is you're smoking? It must be very expensive so I can only afford a small amount. But it sure does mess you up.

Because it makes it harder to to claim that gay marriage is a "civil right".

Religious issues aside, I would assume that how one feels about whether or not sexual orientation can be changed is how they would feel about this law being overturned.

In this case, we have one openly homosexual judge who has single-handedly overturned 7 million votes. Hardly the poster child of an objective decision... I would suggest that maybe he wasn't the best person to make such a giant decision.

It also raises major constitutional issues, such as whether or not the judicial branch is more powerful than the will of the people... because this would mean that virtually any open election could be overturned on a whim.

of the boomers (quote]

The number of people voting for or against an issue is irrelevant if the issue is unconstitutional. The judge's job is to decide the constitutionality of the law.
If everybody in WV were to vote to make slavery legal, it would still be unconstitutional and a judge would overturn it...well...maybe not a WV judge, but some judge would.

So you accuse me of making racist statements... you're asked to back it up, you can't, so I'm doing drugs?

Way to avoid taking responsibility for your own ignorance.

Proving once again: if Bob says it, it's wrong.

Do I have this right?

The major objection to same sex marriage is religious?

The other minor objections include economic burdens based on lower taxes for married couples, insurance benefits, etc and something to do with gay people causing the destruction of Rome?

Seriously dude. Get me some of that shit. Anyone who reads your posts will see your slant on race.
And still neither you nor anyone else has a reply to my or Jay's questions about opposition to gay marriage.

Again with the drugs, when you weren't capable of quoting the right message last time. Are you familiar with the word "Projecting"?

Slant? Wait, Bob... you said "they appear way over the racist line way too often"... now it's just a subjective "slant" to my posts. Well, once again, I say "Prove it". You can't, but you won't man up and admit you were wrong.

Do you read these threads or just knee-jerk respond? I have no opposition to it, so I can't provide you with any first person data on why others are opposed to it. Read the thread and you'd see that (you 'd also see others chiming with their point-of-view).

So again you type, and again you prove: If Bob says it, it's wrong.
