They could, but evidently don't. As it stands right now, individual employers make the decision whether to extend benefits to "domestic partners" (the current fashionable euphemism which is designed to cover gay/lesbian couples as well as heterosexual co-habitators). I work for a company...

Couple points of order about your post. Distressing to you perhaps, but completely okay. If religiously devout people want to buy out a newspaper and have the funds to do so, more power to them. Devout Christians, Jews, Atheists, communists, basically any group with a viewpoint and the funds...

Same here, long enough to get some naked photos of her as a keepsake anyway ;)

story link Students Protest Blood Drive Screening ASSOCIATED PRESS MONMOUTH, Ore. (AP) - Two student legislators at Western Oregon University have launched a drive to ban Red Cross blood drives on campus, claiming the donor screening process discriminates against gays. The two students...

Add Tom Selleck and Charlston Heston to the list.

Libertarian here. I think my compliment to Bush is that some of the time, probably entirely coincidentally/accidentally, he makes a decision i agree with. Just like a clock which is broken shows the correct time twice a day. My compliment to Kerry is that i don't have much to complain about...

Link, it's slightly down the page Article quote: So say that the latest CBS-NY Times poll is the beginning of a long downward spiral for Kerry. ...Is it possible that the Republican attacks on Kerry will be SO successful that Democrats are ready to abandon Kerry at the convention? Could...

I would have said the same thing had a Bush supporter said that not voting for Bush makes you a traitor. I may disagree with your POV, might even offer a respectful rebuttal in an effort to change your mind and/or influence your opinion, but I honor your right to make your own decision in good...

For. While it may cause temporary trauma for some individuals who get displaced (admittedly, sometimes even longer term trauma), it not only makes the rest better off but also generates yet more jobs to replace the ones which were lost. Capitalism is the art of creative destruction, and if...

Better a traitor than a moron like you. Keep your stupid opinions about what you feel are the reasonings of how others decide to exercise their right to vote to yourself.

The first one was pretty weak, and I was fully expecting that to be the extent of it. I began sort of mentally preparing my response to those who said it was a video of Rummy getting owned, and telling them it was nothing of the sort. Then i saw the second one, the kill shot. Yikes.

I don't know about all that, Kerry wasn't even there to make look like a fool. Kerry is lucky in that he'll have the chance to think about what he's going to say in response and should do okay. If this were a debate, however, i think Kerry would be in trouble. Cheney is probably one of the...

I think you can add Iraq itself to that list. They might not have said so at the time considering Saddam would have added them to his mass graves, but the polls seem to show pretty clearly they're happy to see him gone after the fact and now that they have the ability to speak without fear of...

In Great Britain, Paliament is the final arbirter of what's constitutional and what's not, and they don't seem to be living in a despot state to me. So I think the U.S. would survive also. Also, the bill calls for a 2/3 supermajority in both houses in order to override SCOTUS (which is nearly...

So your position is that the stupid don't deserve an education? That we shouldn't bother to try to help those less fortunate to improve their lot, as it's simply condescending to them to ask them to try? Thank you, i've heard enough.
