because at the same time only Christian organizations are receiving funds from Bush's Faith-Based Initiative programs?

Asking this again to list the source and explain the question.

- This is an actual question. Ppl last time, weren't sure. I am serious. How do we justify criticizing other nations while discriminating with religious funds? Is this not hypocrisy?

- Source is Frontline. I saw this while going through a few of their shows but honestly can not remember exactly which one it was stated it. Anyone is more than welcome to go through them because it is in there. If you find it, please email me. Otherwise, I'll find it later this week when I have time and edit add it to the details. I'm thinking it was in the one called The Architect.

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!"
Benjamin Franklin

"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude
greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us
in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down
and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon
you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
—Samuel Adams

"Law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it
violates the right of an individual." --Thomas Jefferson

"No nation however powerful, any more than an individual, can
be unjust with impunity. Sooner or later, public opinion, an
instrument merely moral in the beginning, will find occasion
physically to inflict its sentences on the unjust... The lesson
is useful to the weak as well as the strong." --Thomas Jefferson

His points of views are abrasive, idiotic; one sided, arrogant and ignorant. He obviously has nothing better to do than attack a political party who is just as bad as any other. Get real John; Politics are dirty, left or right. Get off your high horse and tell me something I don't already know.

What a fool.

Who here agrees????

For some reason, I referred to Republican states as BLUE today! Dumb. Red is one of my favorite colors and Dems are occasionally accused of having socialist ("red") leanings . . . so why are we blue? Because we're sad that we lost the recount?

Arent they for freedom, womens rights, children's rights, the right to a fair trial etc so on? Why are they so against the war on a country who's former president would tourter and kill anyone and everyone who disagreed with him, who would rape and hang women by the goal post's in soccer stadiums for being ACCUSED of adultry,who force kids to join the military, who would even beat the hell out of olympic athletes for not winning .I could go on, but how could they not support a war on a country like this if they are this loving, caring bunch they say they are?

Even if it was for the wrong reasons, and Bush lied and blah blah blah ,..(which i dont believe) , shouldnt they still be happy that these people may have a chance of freedom now?

Your president would actually care about you
He would want to guarantee your safety by standing up to the world bully.
He would never accept somebody else's ideology to be imposed on you.
He would ensure that artificially created Nations don't ever rest in peace.

Now that's a President to be proud of.

Huntington, a prominent scholar, has framed his realist perception into a prophecy like thesis called " Clash of Civilizations". In his theory, he believes that the clash between nations and states is based on religious and idological reasons rather than political or economic. How far is that true?
