Speaking of lawsuits, you probably aren't zeroed in on what's happening in my state of North Carolina, but our present senator Elizabeth Dole is running against the Democrat Kay Hagen who is ahead of the long-standing Dole in the polls.
Dole put out an ad accusing Hagan of being an atheist.

You should inform your IT department about the magic undies.
Perhaps that will qualify Mormonism for "cult" status. ;o)
McCain LOST???

I think it shows what desperate measures some will take when feeling desperate.

Thanks the iVillage history lesson, and for the laugh.

I heard about that. That is far more frightening than our employers monitoring our emails, sent using their computers, on time for which they are paying us.
I hope Hagan wins big.

Yes, I read about that, she SLIMED Hagan because she had the nerve to attend a meeting in the home of an atheist activist. Then Dole flashed Hagan's picture on the screen, and had an actor say "There is no God" imitating Hagan's voice.
Of course, being willing to listen to the concerns of an atheists or an atheist does not make one an atheist, any more than being pro-Israel makes one Jewish.
But Dole obviously doesn't mind bearing false witness against her neighbor, she is taking advantage of the fact that anti-atheist bigotry is still largely acceptable, and is willing to break a commandment of her religion to fan that hatred for her own self interest.
Utterly disgusting, and I hope she gets sued for the shirt off her back.
Do you think employees should be able to use company e-mail to send out any type of obsene or inappropriate e-mail ? Racial slurs are just fine and dandy, and employers who expect their employees to correspond appropriately are being "PC" ?
If you want to send filthy, inaapropriate, or racially insulting e-mails, then use your own computer, don't expect your boss to allow the use of their company e-mail to send insults to people.
They didn't fire the guy, the fixed the problem, it was a software filtering program glitch.
Does it worry you that religious right wingers are always clamouring for more internet filters on public libray computers ? Why is that not considered being the PC Police ?
