"I wonder how far Moses would have gone if he'd taken a poll in Egypt? It isn't polls or public opinion of the moment that counts. It's right and wrong."

Why is everyone so upset with the gay marriage issue? If they are not gay why does it matter to them? if you dont agree with gay marriage dont marry one! Also why are so many political figures pushing the issue by using the Bible, I thought there was a thing called seperation of church and state! If they are going by the Bible, are they not just as wrong for judgeing me, romans chapter two tells us that we should not judege others, are they just hypocrits?

For years, Wiccans have been fighting for the right to have their religious symbol, the pentacle, added to the military's "approved" list. This article tells their point of view:

http://www.circlesanctuary.org/liberty/veteranpentacle/QuestStorySummary.htm

Basically, the families of people killed in action are asking for permission to have the symbol of their faith displayed on grave markers, in some cases at Arlington.

This links to the current list of approved symbols:

http://www.cem.va.gov/cem/hm/hmemb.asp

As you can see, it includes several Christian symbols, a variety of symbols of other faiths, and even a symbol of non-faith (Atheism).

How would you feel if someone in your family died in military action, and you were told that the symbol of your loved one's religion could not be put on their stone, while symbols of many other religions were permitted?

Is this censorship?

Is anyone actually offended by seeing the symbol of another faith in a cemetery

so that the country can accuse them of war crimes, drug additions, and betraying the American public on their first day in office? Do anyone else hope that a democrat wins so conservatives can tell school children that their president is a loser, or joke on tv about putting a bullet in their head? Perhaps we can march by the thousands burning American flags and talking about how much America sucks compared to Venezuela, but I guess that wouldn't really be that offensive to democrats at all. Am I really the only person that wants a democrat to win so I scream about election fraud and have a bumpter sticker on my prius that says "not my president"?

If we need oil, we must fight Venezuela! It's near us; it opposes us; it has a lot of oil field; it forms anti-US organization and its president insults us! We don't need Iraq for oil! We don't have to come to the territory of agreesive muslim people to steal their oil!

I am thinking his bull headed stubborn determination to " win " in Iraq will be the death knell of the GOP, if they can't come to their senses in time to remove him AND Cheney from office. Interesting times. interesting times.

Bush is responsible for the tax cut that improves the economy that was headed toward recession after 9/11. The economy has done great under Bush and the deficit is on a huge downward tilt. Bush led the nation as a compassionate and strong leader after 9/11. He helped the US get back on our feet. Bush helped institute secutity changes and the creation of the Homeland Security Organization to protect the US. He also instituted changes in the monolithic CIA, FBI and other huge governmental departments to collaborate on security issues. This working together was unprecedented but necessary for protection. Bush led the effort to provide federal security in our nations airports. Bush has done tremendous things to protect us and there have been no terrorist activities on our soil as a result of his policies.

Your thoughts?

The Clinton's ARE liars...... and I'm certainly NOT voting for this Clinton package of lies!

Hillary has high negative ratings. There are a lot of people that REALLY dislike her these are a few of the reasons:


-- Hillary is the liberal media's sweetheart, but not America's sweatheart
-- The Clintons LIE and her husband was impeached for lying and committing purjury
-- Her failed socialized medicine healthcare program under her husband
-- Her shrieking voice that grates on people
-- She not presidential
-- She is very liberal even more than her husband, but bends (lies) politically to pick up votes and reverts back. This is called a "phony."
-- This would bring her husband back into politics and many people do not like that idea.
-- Her husband also has high negative approval ratings.
-- White Water fraud
-- Hates the military, but acts like she likes them to get into office.

What do you think about this B?

from yahoo:
"The message boards that were linked from individual news articles have been taken offline. As they were set up, the Yahoo! News message boards allowed a small number of vocal users to dominate the discussion. In addition, related discussions from similar news articles were not easily linked."

Oh wow. Finally, an admission that the net's al quaeda -- conservative trolls -- shut down an entire part of yahoo's "online community."

They always say anything you do in the way of surrender gives moral support to al quaeda. Isn't yahoo taking their message boards offline the very same thing?

They vote for something on the same basis as Bush. If things don't go right, they accuse Bush of mishandling it but accept no responsiblity themselves.
