I've changed my mind. In light of the following article/announcement, let the muslims build the mosque or community center or whatever since they claim they're attempting to reach out in the spirit of peace and harmony to the entire population of lower Manhatten.

Here's a seldom considered point brought out in an op-ed piece from today's Wall Street Journal: in this age of negotiation and comprimise, has there been any willingness on the part of Imam Rauf and the muslim community of NYC to negotiate and comprimise on the ground zero mosque issue...

Bullseye - that's exactly right. We need to keep that last sentence in mind during any discussion about Islam, especially when Sharia and Wahabbism are the subject matter. True, but it's very few when taken as a percentage of Christianity in its entirety. These people are regarded as the...

"A fair bit" is being kind; absurd is a more appropriate adjective. On the one hand we have people like Daniel Pearl being beheaded by Islamic radicals on the internet. On the other we have enemy combatants being "mowed down" by our soldiers in Blackhawk helicopters. Perhaps there are some...

Westboro actually has no accreditation from any denomination, Baptist or otherwise. It's a stand-alone hate group comprised of Fred Phelps and his family members and in-laws. This cult has been thoroughly denounced by other Christian and Jewish organizations in addition to being picketed and...

I suppose we can revisit the entire history of civilization and find examples of atrocities committed in the name of religion. But fast forward to the present and we find ourselves being attacked by a religious group whose fundamental beliefs as spelled out in the koran are contrary to our way...

If these Muslims were the least bit tuned in to the "sensitivity", "healing" and "diversity" that everyone else is supposed to adopt to accomodate them, they would build this mosque somewhere else miles away from Ground Zero. The reality of the situation is they couldn't give a tinker's dam...

Here's the press release: http://www.cis.org/articles/2010/259-259-vote-no-confidence.pdf

17-18% is hardly a majority shareholder stake. They may have been aware of the Mexican investment, but could do nothing about it. I'll be convinced the UAW is concerned about corp. profits when I see them make the concessions necessary to make them competitive with Toyota and the other non-union...

Just a few random thoughts - rather obvious ones at that: The Volt is an overpriced turkey that won't sell in significant numbers in the US or anywhere else. If GM is hanging their hat on this loser the same way Oldsmobile did with the Aurora, they shouldn't be surprised when they get the same...

Not a huge news story, but it typifies the liberal mindset of the boy president who dissed the Boy Scouts of America on their 100th anniversary. Obama skips Scout Centennial "Obama, who for obvious reasons has little interest in a masculine organization dedicated to honor, duty, God, and...

Au contraire - they very much ARE doing it on a scale large enough to make a difference. The entertainers / talk show hosts we mentioned have audiences far larger than their liberal counterparts. Many people are using alternative sources on the internet and cable TV for their information as...

The "negativity" to which you refer is only seen through the eyes of liberals. It is they, along with their accomplices in the MSM that continually attempt to portray those who promote the bedrock principles of conservatism in a negative light. The entertainers and politicians you mentioned...

Not really surprised - keep in mind that the Tea Party is still an "upstart" organization that in many instances is at odds with the establishment Republicans who have the money, name recognition, national party backing, etc. like Brownback and Blunt in MO. In instances like MO they may have to...

Laffer had another good article in the WSJ back in June. Arthur Laffer: Tax Hikes and the 2011 Economic Collapse - WSJ.com Two key points he makes: "On or about Jan. 1, 2011, federal, state and local tax rates are scheduled to rise quite sharply. President George W. Bush's tax cuts expire...

The legacy of Bill Clinton will be having established the mindset within a generation of young people that oral sex isn't sex, that "everybody does it" and doing it under the desk at work doesn't interfere with your job performance. Likewise, we'll probably someday be able to say that one...

The unique situation we have with Barack Hussein Obama is that he's a radically liberal president with a socialist agenda who is allied with radically liberal congressional leaders controlling both houses with large democrat majorities. Combine this with a weak and inept GOP leadership and we...

I neither see it as creepy, vile, etc, nor hilarious; I just think he's harkening back to 1950s humor, the quaint notion of a father worrying about his single daughters becoming spinsters. Note to Sen. Brown: forget the standup comic routine. Granted, no one was going to let this go under the...

It would be interesting to see the survey you took - questions asked, responses, data like the median age of the class, number of males vs. females, work experience, regions of the country represented and whether or not you could answer anonymously. 99% is an awfully high figure to fall in the...

For those of us who have made the mistake of listening to Michael Reagan's radio show at the darkest hour traveling down some lonely interstate, it should be obvious what's going on with this scam as pointed out by Turtle and Chef. He's an embarassment to his adoptive parents, and without their...
