Is it due to their selective outrage?

coragryph (below) Speaking out against bad actions should not matter if one is affiliated with the company that commits them.

There is no cause to be outraged about what Blackwater has done, in part because we really do not know all of the facts, yet. To use your ideology, then if there is an accusation made against you for, let's say murder, then it is true and should be summarily sent to jail, or executed for what is "believed" to be true, but as yet not tried in court. The news media is not a good enough court to say that Blackwater is truly guilty of anything. An allegation has been made, and that is all. Since you feel that they have, and are guilty, then for anything, are you willing to be tried and convicted in a similar way. If not, then do the same for others.
So far as what others have said, the church, and Christians in general support many single mothers, look for the best to be true for all, and while we anticipate the second coming of Christ, are not trying anything to bring it about. We know better, and know that God will act when He is ready, not when we want Him to be. Know what is true and at least seem intelligent rather than having a free running opinion that knows nothing and appears unintelligent.

Prove that there have been autrocities. It is hard to take much you people say as being factual and there are investigations to be conducted yet.
I'll give people in that situation the benefit of the doubt.
For the poster that whines about single mothers being condemned, as a single dad raising a son alone I am smart enough to realize that two incomes and two parents is much better for a childs well being. Many people are single parents for lack of trying, many were never married and many do not even know who the father is- that is lack of responsibilty and the child suffers because of it.

no one can make me believe the political Right wing so-called Christians of this country believe in anything more than their own comfort and prosperity...I'm not talking about real Christians, but the majority that use religion as something to hide behind. They don't care if the rest of the world is democratic...or that we free them....but they use these ideals as a banner as they rake in the cash...what gets me is that real Christians are fooled by politicians using religion (even if it is unproven that they have any moral character) to get elected...I would vote for a Conservative if I thought he was a patriot, but i would never vote for a Democrat just because he was a Democrat...Are we a nation of fools?

Maybe it's because it's a two party system and the left worships Satan and hugs Ahmadinejad and Hugo Chavez and Saddam and Kim Jung IL and the left hates America and badmouths the USA while standing in Iraq hugging Saddam or while standing in Syria,and so on and so forth.
Maybe it's because the left is so AntiChristian and since we are stuck with a two LIBERAL party system then we opt for the lesser of two evils.Did you ever think of that?
It isn't much but it's all we've got.
I see no reason to run over to the "I f*&@#%* hate all Christians and want them all dead," Bill Maher side.

No, it's due to the fact that Blackwater is fighting an enemy in street clothing - some of who are male, some of who are female and yes, some of who have been known to be children.
Mistakes are going to be made when the enemy is so loosely defined.

I spent a year there, did combat patrols, did the fly overs of fallujia, ramadi, and balad.
if the black water people said they took small arms fire, they did.
Until God himself says otherwise, I go with them. the bad guys would fire from all kinds of places to get civilians killed in the return fire.
get a life, get over it, and sleep well. the terrorist are here and the attack is coming soon. you have more immediate problems than wondering why Christians are more concerned about the Gospel of Jesus Christ than what sinners and others are doing else where
by the way, you don't need to thank me, I serve for my family, everyone else benefits. Why did you serve in the military? Or did you?

No, we're not into bearing false witness. We're waiting for the REAL facts to be presented. Consider this. This supposed shooting happened about a month ago? As well wired as the news media is in Iraq, why are we just NOW hearing about it? Don't you think the liberal news media would have been all over this story like flies on stink the moment it happened? Time to do a little objective and critical thinking...

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS TO LIBERALS WHEN THEY JOIN THE SOCIALIST LIBERAL BIAS` MEDIAS` FEEDING FRENZY , BEFORE THE TRUTH IS DISCOVERED !!! You mean like John Murtha ( D-PA ) ? Accusing the "haditha Marines" of being cold blooded murderers a year ago before he had any facts . 3 Marines have been acquitted of the charges , and the rest of the charges against the others are going to be dismissed . It seems that Murtha said he got his "information" from military sources , and during the trial it was discovered that he got his information from 2 middle eastern reporters sympathetic to the terrorist cause !

Because the christian right is full of ****. Thank God that The christian right and christians are not the same people. Too bad that real christians who actualy belive in the teachings of Jesus christ were duped into beliving that the christian right ( the religeous right ) actualy belived in the teachings of jesus. After all jesus did say there would be wolves in sheeps clothing.
