And another one! Yeah, we’re exporting record amounts of American-made gasoline to other countries instead of lowering prices here. Obama’s fault… how exactly?

In announcing her plans, Snowe, 65, emphasized that she is in good health and was prepared for the campaign ahead. But she said she was swayed by the increasing polarization in Washington.

letmitchellshake asked: Forgiveness is a funny thing. People throw the word around without understanding the emotional and psychological toll it takes on the body to forgive someone who has done something heinous, like rape. I've lost friends because I haven't forgiven the 40 year old man who pretended to be a 16 year old boy on MySpace when I was 13. The 40 year old man who told me to meet him at the library,...

Anonymous asked: Agreed 100%. There are some things that should never be forgiven. I will never forgive myself for introducing my best friend to her rapist and I will never forgive my brother for being that rapist.
Anonymous asked: Dear OTHER anon, I know someone who was molested by my best friend of seven years. He was more than a friend, he was my brother, he meant the entire world to me... But when I learned this, I could never look at him the same again. He has since been completely severed from my life. I'm sorry, but NO, we as a society, DO NOT, EVER need to forgive people for that.

Anonymous asked: it seems like men are undeserving of any forgiveness from you. You treat people who have messed up or made mistakes as unredeemable and forever tarnished and when someone makes a mistake, for the rest of their lives all they are is that mistake, that they are no longer anything else and will never have anything to offer the world because they did something bad. You just seem to have such an angry...
