“I believe the federal government has grown out of control, threatening the rights, liberties, and property of the people. This is being done at the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial level. This is in direct opposition to the Constitution and the Founding Fathers vision for the Federal government. Because I believe this, today I exercised my right as a Free Citizen, and did not visit the White House. This was not about politics or party, as in my opinion both parties are responsible for the situation we are in as a country.”

Boston Bruins goalie Tim Thomas • Describing why he decided to skip an event in which Obama honored the team for winning the Stanley Cup last season. While the event went off without a hitch, Thomas’ no-show has drawn a lot of controversy, as many felt that the move showed a lack of respect to the office. The team has distanced itself away from Thomas’ decision, saying they were disappointed Thomas didn’t join in. source (via • follow)

What’s up with Boston and their outspoken asshole Conservative [Kurt Schilling] sports stars? Plus, how can you say it is not about politics? It is exactly about politics. - Douglas/LAC

Curt Schilling seriously considered running for Teddy Kennedy’s senate seat. Yes, we love you for bleeding into your sock all those Octobers ago, but YOUR POLITICAL VIEWS DO NOT FIT IN MASSACHUSETTS. Also, FUCK Tim Thomas - you’re paid to stop pucks, not mouth off. Theo Epstein gave money to John Kerry’s campaign in 2004, and still went to GW Bush’s White House with the team in 2007.

    Fuck “respect” for authority. Unquestioned, it is merely a clean way of saying obedience.
