A nice summary of the modern republican party, I think.

Well, close, but not entirely correct.

However, in the case of Obama, anyone who has a pastor at their church, and knows someone who bombed a building when they were 8 years old themselves makes them equally "guilty."

Well I personally think you should change it. It isn't a good representation of reality and what conservatives or republicans believe. It may be your view on what they are but it isn't close to reality.

I think my next avatar will be a pregnent 13yr old girl having an abortion for the third time with her 28yr old illegal alien boyfriend standing by and the dem. logo in between her legs because that is an accurate portrayal of what the liberals and democrats believe . Oh and holdong a welfare check.

That's why we call it freedom, Rush. Feel free to do what you have to do. I'm a memeber of the ACLU, so free expression doesn't bother me.

By the way, why don't you educate us on welfare and how it works? Be sure to mention the changes in the law in 1997.

Absolutely! They should stick to the relevant issues like lapel pins.

Thats why she is having an abortion. She already has the max kids to recieve the max welfare so the kid doesnt matter now because it wont make her anymore money. But soon after this event her illegal alien husband kills a cop and is represented by the ACLU and gets to stay in this country as long as he denounces his faith in return.

Yes the ACLU believes in freedom of speech as long as it doesnt involve God in a public forum then that is a no no.

Either way this is a tangent I am done with. I have said what I think.

I guess we could go back and forth about the relevance of this particular issue, but I think it brings to light some of the stuff that goes on "behind the scenes" at political campaigns. I'll have to go back and find the article, but there was another story about the Obama campaign telling an Asian college student that she couldn't be seated within sight of Obama during his speech at ther school and that they needed more whites to be seated within sight of Barack, so she wouldn't be in the pictures.

Then, this deal about the muslim women comes out in which staffers wouldn't let them sit behind Obama so they wouldn't be in the pictures.

I can't say for sure that Obama has a monopoly on this sort of thing, but this is the only time its been documented in the national media. If Obam ais supposed to be the candidate of change that he says he is and if he is supposed to be respective of and even embrace racial differences, why is his campaign so worried about the skin color of those who are in pictures with him?

Like I said, it may just be a campaign thing, but I certainly don't think its a good one. I can only imagine the outrage in the media if McCain's campaign excluded an Asian student so they could get more whites in the picture. What I also think this shows us is that those from the Obama campaign can't see past skin color and their own prejudices.

Let us all know how much money a recipient gets for an additional child. While you're at it, also let us know which states do not allow such things.

As for the ACLU and freedom of religion, happy reading. http://www.aclu.org/religion/govtfun...s20060824.html
