I do not believe that a moderate democrat can win enough support to take it to a race. I think you're wrong, but when 08 rolls around, any Dem who has a legitimate shot will be labeled as a "far left-winger" by conservatives. If someone like Warner or Bayh, who are both very moderate, gain momentum, you

What did he say that is wrong or out of place? What wouldn't have been said had he known Dobson would air the letter? As I said above; It definitely is "much ado about

I work around and with a lot of teenage kids. It's amazing and disturbing how widely "fag" and "gay" and thrown about in their conversations. I hear all the time; That's gay! He's a fag! Don't be so gay! You're being faggy! They all know not to talk that way around me, but it's so common that they sometimes forget. When I ask them about it, it never has anything to do with sexuality, to them it's just a put down.

Well I searched, sent emails and all to no avail. I haven't even heard mention of the law again since yesterday. So maybe the judge was wrong... I've been searching for this law also Tova. It's not just the judge who made reference to it, I've seen it mentioned in several places. Let us know

What's your take in this? Why do you care what I do? Yes, this is his thread and if he choses to he can ban me from it. But he also has to face the fact that by posting about his book and allowing me to reply about it that he either has to deal with it or ban me. What's my take on what? On you arguing

And once again, you can take your book and all the info inside and shove it where the sun don't shine. I have no interest in it and it's sad that you would use JU as a place to advertize your excuse to make money off the ignorant and the curious. If you truly have no interest in it, then why do you keep

It definitely is "much ado about nothing"....well maybe not the much part. I just thought it was kinda odd is all. Now if Pat Robertson got a letter too, that would be a problem.

Don't you dare EVER tell me you support the troops if you are willing to sit there and tell us that this means they are unwilling to finish their mission!!!!! I assume you're referring of the 58% who clearly understand the mission? Or are you referring to the 90% who might think the mission is done since Saddam is gone and they believe the

So Alito was not confirmed by vote but rather by prayer? Sounds like it; "I hope we'll have the opportunity to meet personally at some point in the future. In the meantime, my entire family and I hope that you and the Focus on the Family staff know how much we appreciate all that you have do

Were there any connections between Alito & FOTF before his nomination? I mean other than broad philosophical agreement I'm not aware of any prior relationship, "brokeback" (good one kb) or otherwise. I think

James Dobson, head of the evangelical Christian group Focus on the Family, has received a personal note from Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito commending them for their help in his confirmation process, RAW STORY has learned. The letter was posted by Progress Action Now. The group

Except I don't "know" any of that from this or any other poll, davad. And your characterization of what I would have soldiers do is yours, not mine. How exactly would you go about "knowing" this information? Or is it just irrelevant information? My apologies if you took that as what you personally would have soldiers do, that wasn't my

The poll validates nothing and contributes nothing substantive to the discussion. Our policies & strategies should not be governed or influenced by such polls, given the ease with which they can be directed or manipulated to produce any desired result. It doesn't contribute anything to the discussion t

My point is that the author of the article is trying to imply that wanting a job to be over with so I can go home is the same as not wanting to do the job, or not believing that the job should be done by me before I go home. You're not nearly as good at telepathy as you'd like to believe, because that's

Yes, you're all right. The poll is BS. We shouldn't pay any attention to what the soldiers actually think or say, only the administration or bloggers can speak for them. Oh, and is that ~~cough--propagandistic--cough~~ picture supposed to be a depressed soldier who just wants his mommy and to go home? Looks to me like he might just be resting after a hard day of

I think most of you are looking at this in a different light than I am. Obviously the soldiers want to personally go home. Anytime I was deployed, I wanted to go home too. I look at this poll as the soldiers wanting the war to end in general. The detailed results of the poll have now been released by Zogby. Here are some excerpts; Le Moyne College/Zogby Poll shows just one in five troops
