    Part II of Angelo M. Codevilla's "America's ruling class and the perils of revolution

    Thanks for answering the thing about the "iceberg's tip" I was apparently missing. Democrats may be the party of the ruling class, but not all ruling class and people who desire to be considered part of the ruling class are Democrats. Republicans did spend money like Democrats when they had...

    Part II of Angelo M. Codevilla's "America's ruling class and the perils of revolution

    Not all Republicans are in the middle. The big battle in the Republican Party right now is between the John McCain/Olympia Snowe types who will bend over backwards to be part of the ruling class and the Sarah Palin/Rush Limbaugh/Bobby Jindal types that want to take control of the party back and...

    Part II of Angelo M. Codevilla's "America's ruling class and the perils of revolution

    Important as they are, our political divisions are the iceberg's tip. My comment: This does not make sense to me. Our political divisions are important and yet they are leading America to its “iceberg’s tip.” That seems like saying, “This cancer is killing me, but it is an important part of...

    By: Professor Emeritus of International Relations at Boston University Angelo M. Codevilla in "The American Spectator" on 7-16-2010 “As over-leveraged investment houses began to fail in September 2008, the leaders of the Republican and Democratic parties, of major corporations, and...

    Gitmo detainees serve time by playing games, talking to family on Skype, taking class

    Prison, Guantanamo or domestic, should be one of the most miserable places to be on Earth. Basically, you get food, water, medical care when needed, showers to stay clean, and then you sit in a cell until your time is up and think about how terrible this is and how "I do not want to ever come...

    Supreme Court: Christian group can't bar gays, get school funding

    Also, I agree with you interpreter, but at the same time, considering one of the issues was public funding, I can see where my poll question could have been better worded.

    Supreme Court: Christian group can't bar gays, get school funding

    In answer to your first paragraph: A pro-homosexual Christian seems the greatest of contradictions. In answer to your second paragraph: "The moral principles and precepts contained in the Scriptures ought to form the basis of all our civil constitution and laws… All the miseries and evils...

    Gitmo detainees serve time by playing games, talking to family on Skype, taking class

    By: Mark Levine of Fox News Channel on July 13, 2010- text not in quotes is commentary by me “President Obama has not fulfilled his pledge to close the detainee prison at Guantanamo Bay, but he has brought Skype, Playstation3 and ‘life skills’ classes to the detainees at the island...

    Poll: Church attendance increasing in U.S.

    OK so church attendance has increased. What are people hearing in the bulk of American churches today? The Barna Group did a survey in 2009 about the beliefs of evangelicals. The results were alarming. Only 9% of American adults hold a biblical worldview according to this survey. They defined a...

    Supreme Court: Christian group can't bar gays, get school funding

    "The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that a public school has the legal right to deny a Christian campus group recognition and funding if it bars gays from becoming voting members and taking on leadership positions. In a splintered 5-4 vote, the court ruled in favor of the unusual school...

    Will Presbyterians redefine marriage?

    I know that. I was just stating that because that is the organization that the church I currently attend is a part of. So that was my little "shout out" to them so to speak for being one among many churches that continue to hold the truth to the high regard that it should be held.

    UK church to boycott Israeli goods

    Just reading through the thread and I have to say that I agree with everything KM Richards has said here. Israel is acting in self-defense in most cases. The land of Israel was given to them by God in Genesis in an unconditional covenant that did not rest on Israel's obedience or disobedience...

    Radical Islamist group is returning to Chicago for major recruitment drive

    Here is a good one from a sect of the world’s most “peaceful religion.” A group called Hizb ut-Tahrir is holding their second annual convention in Chicago. Among some of their claims is this one that I found particularly humorous: "Michael Jackson turned white because of capitalism." I have...

    UK church to boycott Israeli goods

    It may seem like I am picking on the Methodist church tonight, but that is not my intention. It just turns out that many of the links I am finding tonight refer to the Methodist church in a light that I consider negative. Thanks to encouragement from the World Council of Churches, the Methodist...

    Will Presbyterians redefine marriage?

    So some in the Methodist church are saying that Jesus may have been married, Mary was not a virgin, and that no one (especially clergy) is required to stay a virgin until married and now Presbyterians may be redefining marriage along with some other "Christian" denominations that have done...
