Patriotism is good. To a point. Like toms said, it can have a mob effect. When that happens it can be dangerous BUT I would like to point out two things right fast. @Jmac "You should also read the Constitution, then look at what amendments...  [Read More]

Exactly. Islamic extremism is an idea, not an army that you can defeat with bombs and bullets. That's why launching a "war" on them doesn't work. All you can do is use special forces to take out the leaders... which we have not done. They m...  [Read More]

As to Dems wanting to go belting away from Iraq as fast as they can... it just makes me mad. I think most of us know someone that went to fight, in Iraq or Afganistan (I have a cousin on his 2nd tour with the Army Rangers in iraq, he also did a tour...  [Read More]

I don't think we should use nukes on Iran. It would just be a really bad idea. America is a superpower. And what to do with that power? abuse it? We should hold ourselves to a higher standard. Besides, we could make Iran a nice flat desert with con...  [Read More]

Nope no one said that. But by saying we need the labor, that is refusing to do anything about the problem. You're clearly fooling yourself if you don't think that YOU are benefiting directly from the low wages paid to those people doing those jobs....  [Read More]

True there is no fast way to ship 8 million people out. But as far as I know that?s not what the current immigration bill calls for, and all Hispanics are protesting that bill right now. @ET I never said that we do not benefit from the illegal workf...  [Read More]

Anyone that says there is no problem is just lying to themselves. One of the things that makes me mad are the people that say "they do the jobs we don't want to do" whoever first came up with that is just so full of ****, sure, some peopl...  [Read More]

That's the key word though. Major. The point is that the government in Iraq was thrown down and at that point everyone thought "maybe Bushed did not screw up so bad after all" Right before all the miscreants came pouring over the boarder...  [Read More]

- If you consider a fetus to be alive, then abortion is justified under certain circumstances. I cut out the first 4 points you stated because they have no bearing on this thread and I dont really care what you think about them as of now. Next tim...  [Read More]

By no means did "right to life" imply that you can't end a life in a case where it is justified This statement here says so. If I am reading it correct you are saying that if it is justified you can end a life (We have been talking about...  [Read More]

At early stages, there's no significant difference between a human fetus and a chimp fetus, it's only upon later developement that they show in real difference. Good point, cept not. Yes they are both just a cluster of cells at that stage but the ch...  [Read More]

The anti-choice side here is arguing from fundamentally fallacious premises. In the anti-choice rhetoric, there are two implicit assumptions: The first assumption is that it is possible to point to a stage in foetal development where the foetus sudd...  [Read More]
