    Well...if that's the case, then OK. People who get things other than cream cheese frosting should be tried in the Hague.

    A few years ago I picked up a temporary side job at a stationary print shop that shipped orders all over the country. Most of what they did at that time of year was Christmas cards, but there was a steady stream of wedding orders, including a few gay weddings (which weren't legal in Alabama then.) Who if anybody should have had right to refuse to handle those orders? The designers? The proofreader? Accounting? Press operators? Owners? Where would you draw the line on where someone was expressing themselves artistically and who was just a working stiff moving product down the line?

    Depends on how they vote.

    If I'm a homophobic artistic cake maker and I really don't want to make a cake for "those people," I will just do an incredibly shitty job --- maybe even make an offensive cake on purpose. They'll refuse payment, of course, which is fine. Followed the letter of the law, did I not?

    Well, that's just it. He's arguing it's not just same-sex wedding cakes. He'll sell them a cake, he just won't decorate it. Is that enough? Where exactly is the line?

    I'm a liberal--and not at all religious--but it is quite alarming how many on the left have abandoned a robust defense of the First Amendment, including the parts about religion. I think quite a few people would be shocked if they looked at the court lineup in Employment Division v. Smith.

    Guess that's more stable than one that moves around a lot.

    Nearly 73 percent of Democrats and 17 percent of Republicans said they would abstain from alcohol for the rest of their lives if they could see the official political process begin to remove Trump, according to a Detox.net survey of 1,013 men and women nationwide.
    For life. 73 percent. That is pathetic.
