    Britain Adopts Islamic Law, Gives Sharia Courts Full Power to Rule on Civil Cases

    Islamic law has been officially adopted in Britain, with sharia courts given powers to rule on Muslim civil cases.

    The government has quietly sanctioned the powers for sharia judges to rule on cases ranging from divorce and financial disputes to those involving domestic violence.

    God help us.

    Isn’t life grand if you were Al Gore super prophet!!!

    When Al Gore uses energy, the blogosphere lights up.

    That’s power.

    His large Nashville home, utility bills and jet travels have drawn flamethrowers over the last year and a half. Now, it’s a houseboat he bought this summer.

    “Here’s the good news for him,” said Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics. “It doesn’t matter a whit. He’s out of politics. He’s won the Nobel Prize, the Academy Award and goodness knows what else. … He’s got the last laugh on anybody.”

    These Gore apologists are so pathetic. Gore says it is my fault that the earth is warming, but yet he buys himself a boat almost twice the size of my house. Just how much energy was wasted by the manufacture of this thing?? This guy is such a hypocrite. – Lorica

    The Sarah Palin Phenomenon is doomed.

    But it’s not because of her lack of foreign policy experience or her deer-in-the-headlights look during part of her interview last week with ABC’s Charles Gibson.

    The primary reason why the Palin bubble will burst is that the media will decide that they are bored with her. They’ll need to move to shine a light on a fresh issue or individual.

    Ahhh yes more of the stuck on stupid attitude coming from the drivebys.

    This is how the world works in the age of 24/7 news cycles. Whether the subject is Britney Spears, Michael Jordan or Sarah Palin, we inevitably raise stars to mythic levels, out of all reasonable proportions. Then we knock them down. (Look out, Michael Phelps. Your time is coming, too.)

    Yes this coming from individuals who gave us 24/7 blanket coverage of Anna Nicole Smith for 3 months after she died.

    Sarah Palin has nothing to worry about here. The MSM continues to confuse Conservatives for the same mind numbed vegtables that make up the Liberals of this country. She has given us hope, and that hope is going to carry John McCain into the White House. – Lorica
