At a time when America is growing, evolving and becoming more tolerant and diverse, the Republican Party seems to be shrinking, devolving and becoming less tolerant and diverse. -

Rick Santorum calls the president a “snob” for wanting Americans to go to college, and he says that John Kennedy’s speech about separation of church and state made him want to throw up.Newt Gingrich says he wants to put colonies on the moon.

Smarter and stealthier than dogs, cats are also more versatile: They can climb trees and leap across buildings to gather intelligence. Studies show they can survive nine times as long as any human soldier.
