:scratch: Like gay marriage, which has been Constitutionally banned in 27 states and banned by law in 44 states? The Conservative Revolution, which makes me feel like a broken record since I've mentioned it so many times today, is in full swing. Support is out or going out for: gay marriage...

I think that you should look at both sides. Both sides have softened. I live in Maine, where we have two Senators who are pro-choice, last I checked were for some recognition of gay marriage... We haven't had conservative Republicans in the Congress for a long time. Now what you should notice...

I don't think that's a real logical argument when the poor get 200% of their taxes back, get serious welfare, and the rich pay enormous estate tax, property tax, income tax, corporate tax, then you complain when they get a wee bit back. Let's not forget - the rich and the corporations make up...

I think that I'd agree with that. Mitt Romney is a good candidate, and if he does go for President he has a good shot at the primaries. He's the best and most popular conservative voice in the Republican party, and seeing as the Conservative Revolution is in full swing, he has a good chance...

Too true.

Just for argument's sake, there are 10 people. The first contributes $1,000,000 into the pot, two contribute $500,000 into the pot, three contribute $250,000 into the pot, and four contribute $5,000 into the pot. Those who put in the least get more than half back from the pot than those who put...

Great point.

Great point.

Social security is little more than a redistribution of wealth. Those contribute great amounts to it get abysmal returns. Social Security is nothing more than a pathetic form of forced redistribution of wealth - THINK ABOUT IT!!! Those who aren't well off should be helped, those who have no...

http://www.federalbudget.com/ http://www.fightfolly.com/folly_of_budget_06.htm "Social Security was designed to be a self-financing program, in which current workers pay taxes to support benefits received by current retirees. In the early years of the program, there were more than 16 workers...

Are you kidding me!!! We spend more annually on SS then we do on our military, even with the war in Iraq!!! And look at how bad SS is messed up. Also, Social Security is supposed to be for the American people, right? To help those in retirement? Yeah, but less than half of the SS budget goes to...

The War in Iraq is uniting Americans, but I'd like to point out that it isn't doing as well at uniting Americans as the gay marriage bans are.

Yes, a community based on service to others... Fidel and his family are doing pretty well, others are living in poverty and desperate to come here. To whom do you mean service to? Quite simply, we have a system here based on common sense. I do service, and yet I'm not even an adult (close to...

I would generally disagree about how oppressive and evil those government are, like Israel or, as I said before, friends like China are too powerful at the moment. We wanted foreign aid - so did they, look back in history to the time of the invasion. We are still there because we still beleive...

I just want to respond to the second link, and I quote: "The primary issues of Christian Liberalism were birthed when Jesus spoke the profoundly prophetic words found in Matthew 25: 31-46. These scriptures reveal God’s heart for the poor, the sick and other neglected people...

To say such a thing you'd have to be filled with as much bias as Adolf Hitler. To turn the other cheek and love thy enemy is not a liberal ideal, sorry to tell you. It crosses both lines. But that's right, Jesus supported alot of liberal ideas, like seperation of church and state - clearly, the...

1. There are lots of places in the world that need radical change, but without the strength to make a lasting influence for the better why use military force? There are many cases where economic influences are much more powerful than military. 2. The notion that what we have done is forced...

Either we simply disagree on what abortion is, or you would be of the mind that the government should not outlaw murder.

To say that none of these issues are mentioned in the Bible is like saying that pre-marital sex is not mentioned. Like the issue of pre-marital sex they are mentioned, just as direct as some of us might like. Gen. 19: 1-29 Judges 19-21 Deutronomy 23:17-18 I Corinthians 6:9 I Timothy 1:10...

I agree that we should hold ourselves to a higher standard, and I do, but that isn't at all what I'm talking about. There are people that don't care about the standard but use it. People who don't care about whether Iraq is a free Republic or run by oppressive Shia law, and they care more about...
