On another note Jim - don't bother trying to argue logic and reason with the illogical and ignorant ... like on this thread. Facts speak for themselves and if some choose to ignore facts and completely make up other facts in ranting & raving fashion I just laugh and move on.

I keep saying the same thing about him Jim, especially regarding climate change!!!

You should see the email debates we have! Lots of from both sides, sans the BSSB BS

BSSB,
I'm a very liberal guy, but you are making the rest of us 'moonbats' look bad!
Give it a rest dude! You are obviously new to these discussions. Jim is actually a sane, level-headed guy, and posting the same Bill Maher videos won't get you instant credit here. at the end of the day, no one takes it personal, I'd still fish with RIJ if he ever gets back in the water and off his fiberglass jetty!

you can all say what you want, fact of the matter is in less than one week we will have a democraticly controled white house and congress and the republican party will be irrelevant. that being said, I like ranting to all you republicans. this counrty was founded on our ability to non-violently argue our opposing views. I believe everyone has a right to their opinion( no matter how flawed I believe that opinion to be). I encourage everyone to go out and vote for the canidate of thier choice. and yes I do dislike most republicans.

Wow am I glad you are a spokesman for the far left that has taken over control of the Democratic Party - your "points" say it all and validate many of us Republicans' points...

Oh no, a prayer in school, how horrible , the insanity of it all.

And by the way you may think you are getting a democratically controlled Obama Whitehouse but you'll soon realize (but I'm sure will never admit) that you just bought socialism!

so what is the boy in the class that is muslim supposed to do when the whole class is supposed to prey??

Bush's wallstreet bailout plan was as socialized as they come, so it seems that the republicans were the first to buy it.

I struggle with the rationalization of this one,,,,I mean it was supported by both house and senate and by both candidates.
Why does it get labeled the "Bush" bailout?

The issue isn't and should never be forcing kids in public schools to pray, the issue is banning some kids' ability to pray if they want. That is crazy. It should be and is voluntary so why should it be banned altogether. What's next, banning the Pledge of Allegiance because some kids are offended by our Nation (although some moonbats are trying)...

And, as said above, it was not the "Bush Plan" - it was Bush's and the Congress' plan. However I am not happy with it but it was obviously an extreme situation...

That one-time emergency bailout is a far cry from Obama's wideranging socialistic approach to running our democracy. He is Marxist.

Joe;

You and I can agree here.
However, it should be the kid praying alone on his time, not in a mandated moment of silence or something where the 'non-believers' have to stand there awkwardly.... If the allow that, would they allow a Muslim child to kneel and pray to mecca? or a member of the church of Satan (They just had a reverend from there on HJY, so it is fresh in my head) a chance to pray as well?

A kid who wants to say Grace to himself or with his friends at lunch? I could care less and the school shouldn't. But A school should also not mandate a 'prayer time' otherwise, send em to catholic school (You have boys, nothing to worry about sending them to school in that uniform )
