Whether you no like it or yes like it, cousin Larry, you are in this. You can run nowhere or hide nowhere. You are in my world now.

Did anyone watch the Scientology doc on HBO last night? It was good. Well-made. Interesting enough. But it was billed as, y'know, WATCH WHILE WE PULL BACK THE DIRTY CURTAIN OF SCIENTOLOGY YOU'LL SEE THINGS THAT BLOW YOUR MIND AND MAYBE BRING THE CHURCH TO ITS KNEES and most of the stuff in there, bad as it is, like the human trafficking and the physical abuse and the guy who runs the church being a psychopathic greedy POS and the other stuff, I think is already pretty common knowledge and it wasn't particularly as big a bombshell as advertised.

I have to admit, Fox News is the f*****g worst, but going to the liberal news sites I like to go to and seeing "Jon Stewart destroys Fox News" or "John Oliver destroys Fox News" or "Stephen Colbert destroys Fox News" got old a long, long time ago.

I watched it and i just sat there in awe. Like how in the world people believe in this [expletive] is mind-boggling.

Alot of that stuff was new to me, but then again i haven't really looked into scientology too much.

I have seen first-hand their purchase of old historic buildings/real estate though, as there is a "church" right down the street from me, in what i believe used to be an old school house.

I have a super liberal friend that drools over anything that Jon Stewart does so when i saw his approval of the new host via facebook, i knew to stay far farrrrrrrrrrr away from this new guy.

I'm conservative (not tea party conservative mind you) but yea the whole stick did get old a long time ago.

Full disclosure: i think fox news is a joke as well
