dano2002,

Whether we would sing a different tune when our own ox is gored is not the point. The point is are we willing to sing that same tune every time someone else's ox is gored.

Death penalties for priests anyone?

RedMeatKoolAid,

First a vote against the Induced Infant Liability Act is no more support for infanticide than a vote for capital punishment is support for murder. A little less hyperbole, please.

Second, the topic here is the death penalty in regard to child rape. If you support it, fine, but…

Sarge,

I don't know if that's true or not, but it strikes me as being pointless. We make laws and mete punishments so that individual feelings do not bias our judgment.

If you are advocating capital punishment for all cases of rape, that is a different thing. I wouldn't support…

Obama is an interesting candidate, yes, but not exactly the straight shooter that Bush is. I almost invariably disagree with what Bush says, but to his credit, you know where he stands.

Obama's comment:

I think that the rape of a small child, 6 or 8 years old, is a…

RedMeatKoolAid,

The measure of a Christian has never been spiritual need. And even if it were you are hardly in a position to judge it.

I doubt if Lincoln today could be elected to any meaningful position were he not active in some faith-based movement. So you seem to be…

Nobody is born a Muslim or anything else. They are born and they are raised in a faith and deemed by others to be a part of that faith. Ultimately, when people are free to choose, they choose their own faith if they need one. Obama chose Christianity.

The big…

RedMeatKoolAid,

It's pretty obvious that, when you think it is politically useful for you to do so, you will accuse Obama of having an ulterior motive for his conversion to Christianity. Now if you only had a fact to support your hysteria....

Dr. Dobson's understanding of the Bible may be…

Sarge, Zurg and nisegaijin,

I missed the part where Obama said that the wants the US to go nation building or to engage in armed intervention. It seemed to me that Obama said that Zimbabwe's neighbors (most notably probably South Africa) should pursue a negotiated transition of power. He is…

RedMeatKoolAid,

There was nothing romantic in that statement of possibility. No matter who comprised the the Supreme Council in Kabul, they were kept in place with the cooperation of tribal Afghanis. If the Afghanis begin to suspect that Afghanistan is really being governed from Washington by a kind of supreme…
