You’ve been sold. Obama: get a life. Rediscovering the scientific method. Plus more.

On the other hand, Stanley Ann Dunham took her punishment, and named it Barack. A student, unmarried, at 18 years of age, Ms. Dunham was the perfect candidate to exercise choice. But Liberation Day, celebrated by feminists each January 22, was still more than a decade away. So with little hope, and fewer choices, Ms. Dunham bore the fetus to term, and entered into a doomed marriage with a polygamist. he polygamist abandoned Ms. Dunham and her child, so Barack Obama, every day of his life, was a first-hand witness to the punishment that single mothers endure.
Lisa Fabrizio prays that President Obama never has to explain to
his girls that their lives were a punishment to their mother.
Miss Fabrizio need not be concerned. Had the girls been viewed as
punishment, all options were open. Not so for Ms. Dunham.

March they did and Thank God. Some read this as a statement of it being a Religious gathering and while most people there were people of Faith, it is for LIFE that they gathered, not for their respective Faiths.
True most people there were Catholic, the organizers were Catholics, others of Christian denominations, Orthodox Jews, and believe it or not I am sure atheists were there too. Once John Cardinal O’Connor reported that he had been told by an atheist that “of course I am Pro-life, that is all I have.”
It is also true that Catholic Cardinals, Bishops, priests, Protestant Ministers, and Orthodox Rabbis were there, as citizens supporting the lay people, their congregants. It is also true that Faith teaches that abortion is murder.
Some opponents of Life say we force our Religion and or morality on them. Not so. Neither will we stand by and allow pro-death people to force their lack of Faith or morals or perhaps I should say their secular religion upon us. There is a reason.
There is another component to this. Just because most of the people who are Pro- Life are people of Judeo/Christian Faiths does not mean it is only about that.
While many do not recognize the fact, Faith and Reason or Faith and science compliment one another and are never opposed, except when a miracle occurs. Then it is outside the realm of science/reason.
It is hard for those pro-death people to realize that those people of Faith happen to be intelligent enough and open minded enough to go the extra step and check out the science.
Today we have DNA, we know that a person is a person at the moment of fertilization/conception. We also know that embryonic stem cells have not worked and according to some scientists never will because they promote growth and development, while the adult and cord blood cells promote health and healing.
It comes down to, if the zygote or embryo has the proper number of chromosomes, it is a human person, separate from her/his Mother. Even if those chromosomes are askew. Mothers are only guardians for God/nature.
Simple as 1 and 1 are two and two and two are four.
But most pro-death people do not want to hear the facts. Just kill the babies either by abortion or most forms of contraception. It does not matter as long as we are not “Punished with a baby”.
Is it known here that some countries are in such bad shape economically they are paying women to have babies.
Perhaps if the 50,000,000 babies that have been murdered surgically since 1973 had been allowed to live we might not be in the economic straits we are in today. Most certainly people would not have to worry about their Social Security because there would be the workers there to support it.

A man of faith in a godless age is hitting Americans where it hurts.
Mr. and Mrs. American Spectator Reader, let P.J. O’Rourke talk sense to your kids.
In Britain, defending your property can get you life.
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.
It won’t take long for conservatives to scratch this presidential wannabe off their 2008 scorecard.
The American Christmas, like the songs that celebrate it, makes room for everybody under the rainbow. Is that why so many people seem to be hostile to it?
Was the President done in by the economy, or by the politics of the economy?

If Jon M. Wade would educate himself regarding the difference between a theory and a hypothesis, his argument would have to be reworked.
Contrary to what Humpty Dumpty told Alice, a word does NOT mean precisely what he WANTS it to mean. A word means what it means.

Both Appleby and Wade should clearly define their terms, since Appleby accuses Wade of misusing words.
If you both would accept Merriam-Webster online, follow the links below. I would challenge Appleby to demonstrate the misuse of words by Wade so I can be enlightened as well.

Being an engineer by profession, I like clarity and understanding in words and I look forward to a better understanding of the conflict intimated here.

All Obama needs to do is deal with education in schools, and Universities in America, to win the next election.
Obama is no idiot, the Republican Party was only concerned with the 2 or 3% of American society. The reality is obvious most people on earth are not rich, most people are not business men and women. There are people who want to aspire to become rich, but with no education it is not going to happen.
Republicans have had their party taken over by NAZIS, and the vast majority of people in the world are not NAZIS, and the vast majority of people in America are not NAZIS.
The Republicans needs to appeal to the vast majority of Americans, and to do that you have to know about the society in which you live.
Thake a look at your country look at what is happening in your country, you have a divide of rich and poor, and look at the amount of poor that is out there, and how their lives can be improved would be a start.
What is your biggest problem, health care, jobs, education, information technology. Engage the public in a meaningfull way, show you can understand their problems, till the Repuiblicans can do that the party is over and the game is up.
People are sick of being taken for fools even though 99% of all Americans are absolute idiots.

For the record, there IS NOT ONE DIME FOR ACORN!
The set-aside that keeps bouncing througb the right wing echo chamber is for non-profit housing developers to help purchase, rehab, and resell foreclosed properties, ACORN isn't eligible .
Ditto heads are the antithesis of critical thinkers.

Liar! It's got nothing to do with critical thinking, we know that you liberals lie.
A LIAR ACCUSE OTHERS| 1.29.09 @ 11:15PM
What the hell does it matter if some one is liberal, in a democracy, one can be liberal today and change. The first thing they need is a reason, I've voted in several ways, because I vote for policies.
My vote is not for any one party, I have no loyalty to anyone, I am free to vote how I want by choice. And may I add, informed choice.
A LIAR ACCUSE OTHERS| 1.31.09 @ 12:45AM
I am a liar, and an idiot, too. Please forgive me Conservatives, I'm not worthy to kiss your feet.
