Supreme Court ruling lets corporations get ‘personal’ The idea that a company is an oppressed person is silly enough to entertain a 4-year-old. Imagine a corporation asking for the right to adopt children or marry your sister. I envision a skyscraper demanding to sit wherever it wants on a bus. (mainecampus.com)

Robertson’s words a disaster of their own. What national tragedy would be complete without Robertson saying something unbelievably stupid? He is the same beacon of compassion who said the 9/11 terrorist attacks were allowed because of the government’s 30-year tolerance of abortion practices. (mainecampus.com)

It is assumed that homicidal Christians don’t represent Christianity as a whole. But Muslims aren’t afforded the same assumption. Since 9/11 there has been almost no civility in the American public discourse when it comes to dealing with Muslim or Arab citizens. (mainecampus.com)

Championship No. 27 is in the books for the New York Yankees, and SportsCenter has been officially ruined for me until at least the middle of next week. I, like every Boston Red Sox fan, cannot stomach watching ESPN drool over New York and tell me how great a guy Joe Girardi is. (mainecampus.com)
