I have no clue what the verdict will be. I don't watch the new "court reality show" trials. I have a life.

Rob M. You create facts not in evidence in your argument. Nowhere did I disparage offering help to anyone who has need of it, nor did I advocate isolating each person to their own social island. I have donated to charities, personally offered help to people, served in the military, etc...

Rob M. " And the mantra of: "live and let live" only applies when its something we agree with, no Atheist or religious person truly lives by that, period" You're full of it. I and the other atheists I know really don't care what others do as long as they respect the rights of others. they...

michal1980 You must be the most gullible person in the world if you actually believe even half of the crap you post.

nehalem256 "You mean like how atheists are scared of being told "Thou shalt not steal"?" What an absurd question! If you knew anything about atheists you would know that most have a personal philosophy akin to "live and let live" and base their moral code on the equivalent of the "Golden...

michal1980 I heard that Obama had a second glass of water with supper last night. He probably lets the water run while he brushes his teeth too. He is obviously trying to deprive some Christian in the SW of desperately needed water during the heatwave. Better call Issa to start an investigation.

I'd by quite happy to see it disappear. Think of the children!

michal1980 I've already told you why he brought it up! Don't you read posts in your own thread? Afraid you might stumble over a fact or two?

And Gov. "pro-life under any circumstances" Perry has no problem ordering killing people. But if all 500 of the people under discussion had been aborted, saving 500 or more other lives, he would have a problem with that.

michal1980 Figures it would be you to get it assbackwards again. The reason Obama brought it up has nothing to do with having previously considered it, but is a response to rightwing idiots like you that claimed he was going to do it. A silly and baseless claim he dismissed with a simple...

michal1980 You act like you have a clue about how legal processes work. And I forget; how many times did you point out the "kinglike" actions of GWB?

her209 You have no clue! Many countries have done many things for us that they would never publicly sanction. Not that I agree with the policy, but I nominate you to be the ambassador charged with establishing treaties for "extraordinary rendition". And remember, you can offer no monetary...

nextJin "Countries that hate us" is too ambiguous to address. Who hates us in a country, the general population, the government, the leaders? What kind of aid? Is it cash, food, medical supplies, weapons, technology, farm equipment? The list goes on. Looking at cash alone generates its own...

Anybody that advocates cutting off all foreign aid has no understanding of how it works nor the behind-the-scenes benefits we derive from it. And I am not going to type for an hour to educate you. While we sometimes make foolish decisions about allocating it, overall it is a method of gaining...

colonelciller You misconstrue what I was saying. The "domestic spying" has been around for years. Every time it broke under Bush support/condemnation was almost always divided down the familiar middle. Obama is doing the same thing now. There are differences, but that is beside the point. There...
