they adopted three sisters. he didn't want the oldest...he later turned her over to another 'parent'...that guy later was arrested for raping the girl.
it's a horrible story, and I feel terrible for the kids involved.

Yeah, I've been reading about it- the Arkansas Times is doing a great job covering. What a horrible, horrible story. Blows my mind- especially reading that he apparently pressured the department to give the kids to him by threatening their budget, even though everyone said he and his wife were not a good fit for them.

This was the piece I read on it this morning:

It is a horrible mess. From what I read the other day, he wanted the younger two girls, but not the oldest because she has issues. But why would anyone want to split up the girls? And how awful for the oldest. Poor kid. And then he just rehomes on his own? But, boy he tried to play a part, didn't he? And the kids pay...

Only if a new month started yesterday. Otherwise the Cornell administrator who said the University would welcome ISIS members is 'home alone'.

I just wasted 5 minutes I'll never get back watching that video. It's right up there with PETA's Steve Asmussen video for veracity. Like the PETA video, it depends on removing statements from context and assuming the average viewers will be so woefully uninformed about the topic that they'll buy what the video is selling.

Well, as the saying goes, no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.

And Oklahoma City legislator also figured out another way to table these kind of bills. Add an amendment requiring the businesses to publicly post a list of the groups of people against whom they intend to "exercise their religious freedom."
