Why do the Democrats refuse to universally condemn the riots? Why are they again pushing Russian election interference? And what is the point of the Trump/USPS rigging the election stories? The postal union endorsed Biden. The USPS has been a mess for more than a decade.
Execution
Ralph ‘Blackface’ Northam: No Gathering to Worship Unless it is for Abortions
Virginians are in lockdown until June 10th. And to further reduce the loss of life, no one is permitted to gather for religious worship. But if you’d like to end a life terminate a pregnancy, even after the fact, by all means, gather and make those sacrifices at will.
What Ancient Form Of Torture…
While following up on a story about the ridiculously stupid group No Labels, which I nailed weeks before anyone else, (big pat on back) I discovered one of those polls you often find lingering near a Google ad, or between widgets in the right column. You’ve seen them. Do you support Health Care reform; Palin or Obama; What ancient form of execution would you least prefer?
Well isn’t that an interesting question. What ancient form of execution would I least prefer? It was actually harder than you think. (I found it here, right column about halfway down; and read the article while you are there, it’s worth your time.) I assume it was created by the site (they are using pollhost.com) so kudos to them for such an original idea.
The choices are Buried alive, Crucifixion, Flayed alive, Scourged to death (I had to look that one up, it is a multi-thonged whip), Stung/bitten to death by insects, Slow disembowelment, Roasted on a grill (pass the BBQ sauce), Dragged from a Chariot, Torn apart by wild beasts, Rolled downhill inside a spiked barrel, or death by a thousand cuts. No, listening to an I-pod full of Obama speeches was not a choice. While torture, it is not ancient enough.
So what’s not to love.
Remember, it’s the torture you prefer least so take another look at the buffet and ask yourself if passing on the mysterious "looks like some kind of macaroni and cheese like substance" was really all that hard now that you have to think about this one?
My initial choice was torn about by wild beasts, but after a moments consideration that might end quickly depending on the beasts and what they tear off first. Flayed, Scourged and bitten, all look like they might take long enough to be bad, as might the barrel, the chariot, and the thousand cuts, but in the end, if I had to pick a least favorite from this list, I’d go with Roasted on a grill.
But that’s just me. And it turns out 17% of the respondents so far agree making that choice the third least popular–which is to say most popular ‘least popular.’
So what were one and two (so far)? The table is on the jump. Then go vote yourself if you think you can decide what is worst, then let us know what you picked an why.
