So the good congressman "accepted" his resignation rather than shtein-canning his ass?

Mighty white of him.

Evidently gleefully firing people in middle management is the way to go here.

What a shocker.

Surprised I didn't see this posted, thought most here would be raising glasses knowing that there would be 21 less Christians in the world to put up with. But I haven't seen it on MSNBC or CNN so it might have been missed. Obama won't even call them Christians, even though ISIS has said they were executed because of their religious beliefs.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Oh Obama won't call them Christians eh? Why is that? Is it because he's a Muslim?!

I'm catholic btw

How about this -- ISIS is one farged up organization and they'll continue to do this because they're insane?
