I just find it idiotic to look at Islamic radicals and make some sort of dimwitted inference that it reflects on Mohammed, or the Koran in general. Like Will, I also called you on your attempt to see Mohammed and Jesus as being equivalent but you blew me off instead. Maybe you would like to revisit...

Will, Find me where I wrote about Christians being responsible for mass violence in contemporary times? I merely referred to events over history showing that both religions(and, frankly, EVERY major religion) have been the impetus for wrong-headed violence and inhumanity. I just find it idiotic to l...

so, Spidey, what is your definiton of 'propaganda'? It would seem to be whatever you don't agree with. I can accept you differing on the level of 'funny', as that is personal and subjective, but to stretch it to propaganda seems a real stretch. To use this one as an example, you don't feel that ther...

The problem with public funding of basic research, and their derivatives, as I see it… 1. The direct payment of thousands of “lab coats” salaries. doesn't work that way, or didn't when I was in graduate school, in the late '70's. Funding went to research centers which paid for salaries, equipment a...

1. The idea of Sharia law overtaking US law is ludicrous. 2. Focusing on it is largely a right-wing smokescreen "Islam is a right-wing smokescreen." - Ahh sooo...we see the true "reasoning" behind your closed minded (non)thinking. wow, read the two above and go back and work on ...

Yes, I understand what you mean. The Obama ghost one is probably more of an expression of his dissapointment with his president. And no, it didn't make me laugh, it was just true. The thing is, said ghost never really existed because it was all a "fool the public" ploy to begin with. you ...

and that, Silver, is called 'cherry-picking'..........I could have picked that one as your choice from a mile off. What it shows is that the writer is willing skew either side with his humor. As for taste in humor, it clearly varies. Somewhere, there are people who find Larry the Cable Guy, Gilbert ...

Will, I am going to stop the circular discussion and leave you with this simple thought: No where did I suggest a high level of violence by modern-day Christians. All(and damn, I seem to be repeating this for the umpteenth time) I suggested was that: 1. The idea of Sharia law overtaking US law is lu...

I'm not really familiar with Ayn Rand , but I looked over the Wikipedia article about her (what an awful name-change--she had a beautiful name). I don't see any reason, right off-hand, to draw a link between her and Ron Paul. Is there a link there, or is that an assumption on your part? most of the...

Is that one of the good ones? Because I don't see how that is particularly entertaining or funny or clever or enlightening or anything else worthy of publication no matter which way the readers ideological compass points. Just contrived cynical commentary that falls flat. Does the creator of this a...

no hypersensitivity on my part, Will. I simply feel it is very counterproductive to waste time on a subject so trivial, given so many more important issues facing the nation. The issue strikes me as a smokescreen to keep people from focusing on more serious issues which should be settled in the naton.

TB is correct though in the example of a group having free reign of an area of our country, even shooting at local law enforcement and the fed merely posted signs warning us to stay away.

reply to Sgt Thorne: two points of yours, or questions: 1. Why do I feel that Paul's approach heads the US to third world status?

Because people are tired of having a wimp in office and would thus prefer a moron with a track record of failure(3 bankruptcies).

all I can contribute to this climate speculation is this: I own several hundred acres of land about 12 miles inland from the Atlantic.

first off, Obama is hardly an inept clown. In fact, I would challenge you to suggest one potential candidate in the 2008 election who could have managed as well.

So just what makes you think you can stop a group of people within a larger society from living by it’s own law? Can you stop the Mafia?

still, Foil, constraint in who can appear on the ballot IS an interference with the conduct of a Federal Election. And yes, it is pure posturing, serving as a convenient smokescreen in a state with real issues.

A central tenet of Tea Party economics is "sink or swim, everyone should fight for their own piece of the pie". It's effectively "do what's in one's own interest", which is a pretty good definition of egoism (and IMO, runs counter to Christ's example in many ways). Well, it's Am...
