gay bashing not the same as religion bashing
Melinda equates gay bashing with religion bashing and takes offense because she believes in whatever; Rachel equates it with whatever Rev Wright was saying about white people and the government. They're wrong, and I don't sympathize with them. Most gay Americans went through a long period of self-hating, loneliness, and double think before ...

Fantastic article!
Someone tell me why those in the USA who try so hard to get the 10 commandments posted all over in our public square and taught to our kids in school break so many of them trying to get that done? And also fight so hard to take money from the poor and middle class and put in the hands of the rich? And also to keep corporate greed-based health ...

Number 6 of the 6 ways Obama can show he'll be a different
6. Meet with a cross-section of religious leaders. Obama believes in faith-based initiatives of the kind President Bush also championed. By holding a public meeting with leaders from all faiths, Obama could kick-start his policies in this area. He could also send an important message to those who didn't vote for him that he is not the radical ...

What the dems need to be talking about
Mr. McCain says the reason he is running negative and false ads is that he did not get the debates he wants and the trip to Iraq with Senator Obama that he wants. That puts him in the same group with 2 year olds. Do you want a two year old to be president? It also says this is the way he is going to be with congress if he does get elected. That ...

Franken on the Hill
Before we rebuild another country we need to clean our own house. By that I mean send career politicians packing, rather they be republican, democrat or an independent. Sorry this means Ted Kennedy needs to go home and fight his cancer and Oklahoma's Istook needs to return to mopping floors at the radio station. There could be worse things to ...

I Can't Stand It
I hate the need for politicians to express their religious faith. Separation of church and state is evaporating more and more. Bush, Clinton, Clinton, McCain went from moderate to religious fanatic for votes. So much for ''new'' politics Obama.

The Unnatural candidate for anyone with Christian morals
I am sorry if my remarks may seem too harsh to some but the truth will set you free! As a Christian (Catholic) I can not vote for a candidate that has no problem denying medical care to victims of botched abortions, to be specific he vote in the Illinois legislature to deny medical aid to an infant that had survived an abortion attempt...so ...
