I got something slightly similar a while back (over a year ago now), when I was registered as a Republican. I gave it a sarcastic eye-roll, laughed at their pathetic attempt at coercion, and shredded it. This (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co...  [Read More]

I still think the whole "Mission Accomplished" 'scandal' is a fluke - from what I've heard, the banner that said "Misison Accomplished" was put up by the Navy personnel serving on the carrier...because their mission had been accom...  [Read More]

Which leaves the question: would you rather have our boys getting killed to hold together a foreign country that can't get its act together, or would you rather have the sectarian thugs killing eachother over control of the country. At this rate, we...  [Read More]

Iraq has been a tinderbox from the beginning...but personally, I think that if Iraq falls into civil war, it won't happen until after the coalition pulls all of the troops out. As for the current situation, though, I think that a lot of the fears o...  [Read More]

Well, if it was a legitimate part of the class, I wish they'd use that as a defense, instead of this "I was presenting both sides" garbage. It doesn't matter if he was presenting both sides if it has nothing to do with the subject matter......  [Read More]

I thought teaching both sides was a good thing? ;) (For a fun game: replace geography with biology and bush with intelligent design). Geography has always been as much about social and economic situations as grographical ones... they really should...  [Read More]

Well, I suppose it's not really oppression if they did it for both sides, but so far, it looks like Bush is trying to silence his opponents. Looking at it though, I do see how Geography class could be political. Show me how George Bush is moving to s...  [Read More]

Does this really need discussion? We had a discussion (http://lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=122114) on the topic a while back, in which many here defended the 'right' of college professors to spout political views in class...so I'm interested as...  [Read More]

'When recieving counseling'. There it is. What about the ones that bypass that? Is counseling required, or is it simply an option before an abortion? If it isn't required, it should be. I think it's also important to note that one of the biggest supp...  [Read More]

Abortion is always treated as a last resort when recieving counseling. Does this mean every woman pays attention? No, but it's the best you can do. You have absolutely no way of knowing that. In fact, I heard an interview last month with an abortion...  [Read More]

Rape, murder, and other violence is reduced by laws forbidding them. But abortion itsn't (or wouldn't be?) How does that make sense? I don't understand this attitude of, "it's gonna happen anyway, so we should do what we can to facilitate it.&...  [Read More]

Of course. I don't think anyone here approves of late-term abortion, or partial-birth abortion. The only circumstance where it would be acceptable is if the mother's life is in danger, or the baby will be born defective and will die shortly after bir...  [Read More]
