Re: Woman Denied Abortion Dies

Firstly, this isn't so much a story about abortion as one about medical staff not giving adequate care to someone in need. By way of analogy, it is as if she arrived at the hospital with a head injury as a result of a motorcycle accident, and they had sent her away because she hadn't been wearing a...

Woman Denied Abortion Dies

I heard this story earlier today. Woman Denied Abortion Dies Should people be denied an abortion if it is a matter of life and death? I'm personally pro-life, since even in "cases of rape and incest" we have no effective way of proving such a thing, and anybody would be able to claim eithe...

Re: President 2012

I'm a centrist. You guys are just so far to the right that Atilla the Hun seems moderate. Not really much I can or need to say in response to the evaluations of what are centrist sites. Sorry I can't return to the right. I've been there before. Critical thinking won't allow me to return and since I...

http://www.cbo.gov/ (non-partisan) http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/ (reflects the President in office) Ok... a government website being totally objective about the government? Really? Here's a little something from Forbes again, about CBO: Are CBO Estimates Really The Gold Standard Of Accuracy? http:...

Re: President 2012

Why on earth did you not vote for Vermin Supreme? Stygian, you could well imagine my dismay when it dawned on me that Vermin Supreme wasn't on the ballot in Florida. I almost moved to Canada, when I realized that. But then, all my hope in humanity and this great country was restored when Roseanne B...

Re: President 2012

Forbes is not entirely free from bias but they do try to maintain some semblance of objectivity. If anything, they have a Republican/Conservative bias because their audience is the Business Community. CNS - the "C" stands for conservative. They wear their bias in this name. There's no pre...

Re: President 2012

CNS news is hardly objective and no matter how you look at it, there hasn't been a budget passed with Obama's Fiscal Policy reflected yet. You're free to reinterpret the figures presented, if you can find a way to make Obama look better with them. Is Forbes somehow more reliable? Are they magically...

Re: President 2012

The USA will likely just fade off the world scene, like the UK's ''empire''. Actually, America is already fading. Oh, I've heard plenty of comparisons between the Roman Empire and the United States, actually. :lol: Let's at least the USA's imperialism comes to an end. So, no. I make no apology for ...

Re: President 2012

I have better things to do than banter back and forth with unrealistic and expressions of anger and woe over a lost election. Who said I was angry or woeful? Didn't like either, so I'm not particularly mad about losing the election . So people if they want can scream and cry and threaten to take th...

Yeah, the Civil War totally speaks for all cases of secession.

So, you don't have an opinion on anything else I've said?

Re: President 2012

The Bureau of Labor Statistics did not make up numbers to influence an election. Yeah, about that... unemployment stats are calculated way different now than they were back in, say, the Depression-era. Back in the day, it worked as expected: if you had no job, you were used in the calculation of un...

Re: President 2012

9000 signatures on a petition in Louisiana is nothing, B.W., and it is meaningless. I bet most of those signatures are from fruitcakes as well. In any event, secession can be good! Ask 1/137: her country split in two in 1990 and the world hasn't collapsed. And what are now Norway, Sweden and Denmar...

Re: President 2012

Support Obama, for NEW WORLD ORDER! All we can do is pray. The violent disregard for justice in the presidency is, at this point, unstoppable. Please, if this is how you feel, do not pray. I do not agree with Obama's policies, but this nonsense among Christians has got to cease. Well, the NEW WORLD...
