Jackeens was busy, here is your photo thread of today's speech





The third category of detainees includes those who we have been ordered released by the courts. Let me repeat what I said earlier: this has absolutely nothing to do with my decision to close Guantanamo. It has to do with the rule of law. The courts have found that there is no legitimate reason to hold twenty-one of the people currently held at Guantanamo. Twenty of these findings took place before I came into office. The United States is a nation of laws, and we must abide by these rulings.

President Obama National Archive Speech

"--there is one institution that makes a pauper the equal of a Rockefeller, the stupid man the equal of an Einstein, and the ignorant man the equal of any college president. That institution, gentlemen, is a court."

Atticus Finch, Chapter. 20


Find how many similarities you can see

2. Why doesn't Atticus shoot that mob with his shotgun?
The constitutional thing to do would be to shoot the mob with the shotgun.

Say it ain't so, Atticus.

14. Hannity, while not cure to me, is boringly boyish. But Beck is disturbing.
That is the face of a sociopath or maybe a psychopath even. Deranged. Terribly sick and demented.
