The official non-partisan (but still highly-suspect) estimate from an independent firm says the number was between 78,000 and 87,000. But when have right-wingers ever let truth get in the way of their propaganda?
It’s just like how beck keeps bitching about how the media (or, you know, the FIRE DEPARTMENT) was saying his last rally had a lot less people than he said it did.

So yes. I’m disqualified from the job I wanted because I didn’t do the drug test on time. Never mind I’ve never even so much as smoked weed in my entire damn life. Now I’m stuck selling a bullshit service with two, COUNT THEM, TWO guys who hang around staring at me in an entirely creepy way. Not to mention if I want to get food past 4 pm in the mall I have a 75% chance...
More on the death penalty →
jonathan-cunningham:
1.) Innocence on Death Row
There have been 113 people released from death row since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976.
There have only been 907 executions since 1976.
This means that for every 7 executions in the U.S., 1 person has been found innocent on death row.

I had a root canal almost 2 weeks ago. My jaw/tooth started killing me a few days ago and I don’t know why. Blurgh. I hate my teeth. If someone could just give me a whole new set of teeth that would be great. Kthx.

This is a wonderful little tale from one of my long-time readers, evamconnors. Enjoy…or don’t actually, it’s a story of pretty blatant sexism.
