Wow. Texans Cruz And Abbott To Be Disbarred?
In June, the Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution protects the right of same-sex couples to marry and that states are required to issue them marriage licenses. Yet many public officials have publicly encouraged people to break the law. Among them are attorneys, such as Texas governor Greg Abbott and U.S. Senator Ted Cruz. They may frame their opposition as standing up for what’s right. But according to the ethical rules of lawyers, public officials who are attorneys defying the Supreme Court by refusing to perform same-sex marriage ceremonies or encouraging others to do the same should be disbarred.

John Oliver said it best about a poll regarding how many Americans are skeptical about climate change. - "Who gives a s--t? That doesn’t matter. You don’t need people’s opinion on a fact. You might as well have a poll asking, ‘Which number is bigger, 15 or 5?’ Or, ‘Do owls exist?’ Or, ‘Are there hats?"

Nylon stockings were scarce in WWII, so women covered their legs in makeup and added the seam with eyeliner to the back of their legs to give the illusion of wearing stockings.
