Modern dancers give a sinister portent about our times.

A good education is usually harmful to a dancer. A good calf is better than a good head.

Modern dancers give a sinister portent about our times.

Living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what next or how. The moment you know how, you begin to die a little.

Obama does not represent America. Nor does he represent anything what our forefathers stood for. This country is basically built on an attitude. It's a way of life. It's not because you're born here.

I can't imagine an argument that says that raising marginal tax rates on high income people, many of whom are business owners, is a recipe for economic growth.

The argument that gay marriage doesn't affect straight marriages is a ridiculous red herring: Gay marriage affects society and law in dramatic ways. Religious groups will come under direct assault as federal and state governments move to strip them of their non-profit statuses if they refuse to perform gay marriages.
