adaydream: Taking your own statement from above, should the murders of Matthew Shepard be judged any differently then the man killed by mistake in the commission of a robbery?

There are some distinctions made for murder, like aggravated circumstances for which the death penalty becomes a possibility. And there's a…

When you give a lighter sentence to someone else because he killed someone not seen as "special" under the eyes of the law then you're in fact saying that their murder is less tragic. I don't think that's right.

And what happens when someone kills a gay guy and calls…

I'm sure both Bush and Obama feel respect and consideration for the people who die for the US. They're human beings.

Hate laws are a mixed bag. They sound good but enforcement is complex at best. As it stands now if you stab a guy you get put on trial and get a sentence based on the laws. But now you're creating a second set of sentences for a special group…

More Muslims killed...I'm sorry but I really don't understand these people. They're killing their own kind.

SushiSake: Superlib, it seems like my point sailed completely over your head. :-)

Did it? I figured that you were against the war in Afghanistan but you like Obama so you won't publicly disagree with the man. Instead you make up some stuff about "reminding us about Republicans" so you…

Even as Obama pitched more efficient and renewable energy use, his trip to Arcadia made it clear that old habits and dependencies die hard. He arrived in a motorcade of gas-guzzling SUVs.

You mean the Prez didn't just ride his bike to the event? Jeeze, I think some measure for…

adaydream: There was. It's called Afghanistan.

I was talking about including an agreement that they don't step outside of their borders....that would include terrorist attacks in foreign countries.

Well Sushi, President Bush has to think about it carefully before he makes his next move in Afghanistan. I think he should make a decision or at least let people know what the status is, but in the end I can't force him to do anything. The Foreign Service officer…
