This 'gothcha' stuff is trivial. He owes her a real apology--end of story.

Rush Limbaugh apologized. Granted, it was in his own way, but it was a baby step toward civility. (He is so angry, I actually feel sorry for him.) I was hoping that conservatives who value respecting others would condemn him. George Will, Morning Joe, John McCain did---they are gentleman, not bullies.

I suppose if a "Christian Scientist" hospital practiced faith healing for treatment for acute appendicitis that would be freedom of religion? Society has a vested interest in government regulating health care-- but to balance free exercise interests churches are exempt from certain regulations--but their affiliated organizations which delve more into the secular world are not. Seems reasonable to me. If you want to see oppression get some historical perspective--this ain't oppression.

I'm on the left---and I think you are partly mistaken. Knowing that he wasn't going to surrender, it would be quite odd to insist we capture him. They did it right---did us proud. President Obama called President Bush, and President Bush congratulated President Obama---that happened as it should.

Wow. President Obama gets no credit, no breaks, no respect by many Townhall posters. This is not a place for patriots today.

Research people. There is no fiscal "apocalypse." Search Wisconsin Legislative Bureau and get the report. This is union busting. Walker says, "We are broke." We have financial problems as does everyone, and Wisconsin teachers will pay more and take less. But union busting under a specious fiscal crisis we do not accept. To the Capitol I go. As published on JSOnline, State Administration Secretary Dan Schooff said, “It seems like people would like there to be a budget emergency, but there’s not.” i

Cross hairs---wrong! Those signs do not exist.

You have heard wrong. Many students are there but we do not "bring them along"---do you mean a class field trip?

If you think that a teacher can do a good job with four different classes and 150 students and having to be the wrestling coach than you lack knowledge of education––which is not surprising, you are not a professional educator.

The rallies have been peaceful and disciplined. Saw a clip of Glenn Beck looking frightened and referring to riots. Sad really. He needs to get out more. About the signs. Yes, like all large groups of humans there are always the idiots. Scott Walker with Hitler mustache--as a history teacher those ignorant faulty historical analogies make me sick. And there are other stupid signs. I do what I can. Finally, I believe that collective bargaining is part of our liberty. It also gives workers benefits---benefits all workers should have. We have an honest disagreement about that I suspect. But when a politician---left or right---disguises their agenda and springs radical change--that is undemocratic. As citizens we had only days to...
