    Thousands Rally at Cincinnati Tea Party

    True. I grew up in Cincinnati and it is probably the most Conservative major city in existence. I'm shocked that only 4,000 people showed up to that rally but not at all surprised that they dragged their children along with them.

    Conneticut bill threatens Speration of Church and Sate

    The bill would have removed control of individual parish finances from the diocese and require that they be managed by boards of no less than seven laymen who are to be elected by the congregations of each parish. This particular bill was introduced after a priest was convicted of stealing $1.4...

    Republican War on Science Going Poorly - Science is Fighting Back

    Because you can't change the nature of embryonic stem cells. Again, the improvement was TEMPORARY and 25% of the rats developed brain tumors and died. The fact that the improvement was only temporary proves that embryonic stem cells are not a cure for Parkinson's. Wrong. You've just...

    Republican War on Science Going Poorly - Science is Fighting Back

    You can't avoid tumor formation. That goes without saying. First of all, the study proved that embryonic stem cells are not really a cure for Parkinson's. They merely caused a temporary subsidence which means that they're no more of a "cure" for Parkinson's than insulin injections are a...

    Republican War on Science Going Poorly - Science is Fighting Back

    Of course tumor formation is inherent and a consequence of embryonic stem cell treatments. You hear most of the proponents shouting it's successes from the rooftops but it is NOT the collective miracle cure that they'll have you believe and the studies prove it. For example, the proponents love...

    Republican War on Science Going Poorly - Science is Fighting Back

    The issue is the fact that embryonic and fetal stem cell treatments cause tumor formation while adult and umbilical cord stem cell treatments do not. That simple fact is reason enough to focus our funding on adult and umbilical cord stem cell research. Embryonic stem cell research was never...

    Republican War on Science Going Poorly - Science is Fighting Back

    No medical treatment involving embryonic stem cells has been tested in human clinical trials to date. Do you know why? Because embryonic, as well as fetal, stem cells have a nasty habit of creating benign and MALIGNANT TUMORS. The idea that embryonic stem cells could be a universal treatment for...

    Where Is Ron Paul?

    In a time when we face one of the greatest economic crises in living memory and big changes in government and foreign and domestic policy, what could Ron Paul have to say? What kind of legislation could he propose to ease the burden and solve our economic crisis? Where is Ron Paul and what...

    How much power should government have?

    As much as it needs to provide for the general welfare of the people.

    Obama/Geitner's Economic plan "Contradictory"

    Actually, 80% of subprime loans were issued by institutions which did not fall under the jurisdiction of the CRA. In other words, you can't pin this on Carter, Clinton, or Bush. This crisis is the product of good old fashioned corporate greed and irresponsible individuals. Nothing more.

    Second Military Soldier Questions Obama's Eligibility To Be President

    Calling the President a "usurper" and "impostor" is punishable under Article 88 of the UCMJ and the fact that he signed a document in which he, essentially, declares that he will not follow orders from the President and agrees to be a plaintiff in a lawsuit which ultimately seeks to overthrow...

    Second Military Soldier Questions Obama's Eligibility To Be President

    This is punishable by court-martial, dishonorable discharge, and possibly even the death penalty under the UCMJ.

    Should "Bishop" Richard Williamson be excommunicated

    Simply put, it is not founded on any Biblical principle. Jesus allowed Judas to partake in the first communion even though he knew that Judas was going to betray him and, according to Luke, even possessed by Satan himself. Jesus NEVER once said that communion should be denied to anyone under any...

    This is who we are fighting in Afghanistan

    Yes. There are two kinds of war; preemptive (ideological) and defensive (self-explanatory). We didn't ask the Iraqis or Afghans if they wanted Democracy. We didn't ask the Iraqis or Afghans if they wanted a puppet government with the United States pulling the strings. We didn't ask the Iraqis...

    Second Military Soldier Questions Obama's Eligibility To Be President

    But they did. The Senate Republicans passed a Resolution declaring McCain to be eligible for the Presidency. It should be noted that the Resolution contains one outstanding lie. It states that John McCain was born on an American military base in the Panama Canal Zone. According to his birth...

    Mortgage Notes

    Sure. "The technique is proving effective because so many mortgages written during the latest housing boom were sold, resold, sliced, diced, aggregated, and securitized to the point that the original loan documents might have been lost or even destroyed...

    This is who we are fighting in Afghanistan

    Yes. The only real national security threat comes from within our own borders. There's a clear difference between choosing not to bound into foreign nations, guns blazing, and trying to impose Western Democracy and our ideas of freedom and ignoring the problem. This is an ideological war and...

    Mortgage Notes

    The banks and mortgage lending companies sell the debt in the form of the original promissory note (mortgage note) to a third party. The third party receives all of the monthly mortgage payments (including interest) from then on out and I assume, by default, owns the property. The thing I don't...

    This is who we are fighting in Afghanistan

    Al Qaeda is a global organization and radical Islam is a global phenomena so it isn't just about what goes on in Afghanistan. We can and should work to contain it here at home instead of chasing after a pipe dream in the Middle East.

    As if it weren't obvious that Obama is a failure!

    It's certainly your right to disagree with Obama's choice of appointees but how about some CONSTRUCTIVE criticism for a change? You can't just declare Obama to be a failure then walk away without providing your own solution to the problem. Who would you pick?
