    Niner, Your view of my Catholic faith is much appreciated.

    Abortion

    Koldo, Of course the reason I made that point is because the executive office is the only major institution that can affect political change when it comes to abortion (by nominating justices to the high court). There is a reason you don't hear much about abortion in House and Senate...

    Ron Paul,The man America needs for President.

    Well, here Paul is talking about Medicare in the New Hampshire debate: CNN.com - Transcripts

    Abortion

    Hi Storm, I guess it's the dichotomy of seeing something disgusting like partial birth abortion (and being against it) but not holding your leaders feet to the fire on the issue. The status quo of being dogmatically pro-choice wins out personal feelings about some abortion procedures...

    Koldo, Who am I straw manning there?

    Hi Storm, Fair enough

    Ron Paul,The man America needs for President.

    Hi Revolt, I think I am. I hear a lot of Paul talking about how people wouldn't do heroin if it was legal but that it's hard to wean people off of the near bankrupt programs of Social Security and Medicare.

    Abortion

    Hi Storm, There was certainly a lot of enthusiasm for the candidates and I don't recall a clamor for more pro-life Democratic candidates by rank-and-file liberals in the Democratic Party.

    Abortion

    Hi niner, Are we being a little schizophrenic now? I follow my church's teaching on abortion, but I would allow the exception for rape/incest in abortion laws. So, I should be a theocrat now? And you're criticizing me for being more flexible and reasonable than liberal pro-choicers...

    Abortion

    Hi Storm, I wish this was a stunning refutation of my point but it is not. You obviously missed my point about liberals running for president (it was tough to catch, being the second sentence and all). Not one candidate running to capture the Democratic nomination came out for the ban on...

    Abortion

    Hi Storm, The liberal dogma is no restriction on abortion at all which even includes the truly disgusting paractice of partial birth abortion. And you don't see any liberals deviating from this dogma, at least not ones pursuing the oval office.

    Abortion

    Hi niner, That is the only exception; however I would allow other exceptions in cases of rape and/or incest in the case of abortion laws. Thus, being more flexible that any run-of-the-mill pro-choice liberal out there. In the 2008 presidential election when Democrats were fighting for the...

    Liberals admit July 4th parades are right wing

    Hi Skwim, 1. Nice genetic fallacy there. 2. The results are from a Harvard study, so I guess that is the cartoon you are referring to?

    Liberals admit July 4th parades are right wing

    Hi tumbleweed, What I meant by that was that it was a Havard study, which is fairly liberal in disposition.

    Abortion

    Hi niner, Lol indeed, I guess when you take away the exceptions then I don't allow for excpetions for abortion.

    OMG--a discussion about education that includes...

    Hi Skwim, Yes, and the interests of the union means screwing little black children out of schools that will educate them. Very progressive. And union dues are voluntary right? Actually no, in the vast majority of places it is compulsory which means as a teacher you have no choice but to fund...

    Why should I ignore myself?

    Hi Draka, Well, in a way you are right. I think logic can arrive at the conclusion that there is a God (the Kalaam Cosmological argument for starters) and in the case of Christianity, Jesus was an actual historical person and most of the events surrounding his life can be verified. But yes...

    Liberals admit July 4th parades are right wing

    Great article Harvard: July 4th Parades Are Right-Wing - Washington Whispers (usnews.com) As Reagan said, "Republicans believe everyday is the 4th of July, Democrats believe everyday is April 15th."

    Abortion

    Proving once again that pro-lifers are much more reasonable than the pro-choicers. We allow exceptions while the pro-choicers have none and then they have the temerity to call us 'dogmatic.' That's rich.

    What's Iran Doing?

    At least we're bombing Libya. Hopefully Obama's foray into Libya puts those silly snarky 'Bush took his eye off the ball by going to Iraq' comments to bed. Libya? Really?
