Just take your kids out of public school, please. You can home school them. God wills it! Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
is a mess. Why not just call it, "Health Care Reform will Benefit Illegal Immigrants"? Forget the myth. I do not agree with the argument in this article at all, but I just wanted to point out that there are alternatives to bad writing, just as there are alternatives to bad healthcare.

Muslims count for about 3% of the population of Western Europe. About half of those are practicing. So much for complete demographic takeover.

whatever you say. But Obama and I have very little in common insofar as health care is concerned.

None of these nightmare scenarios have come to pass in countries that actually have socialized healthcare (an option that is unfortunately not on the table for us). Why does Pat Buchanan think it would be so different here?

If anything in this article were correct I would be so happy, since unlike Obama, I am an unapologetic progressive.
This guy keeps referring to "conservatives and moderates." Where are the moderates who would support Sarah Palin? Only wingnuts support her, people.
Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps the hostility you are perceiving from your colleagues has less to do with your religion than your abrasive and annoying personality? Please consider it. I work in a university and have several Christian colleagues. We get along just fine. Some of them are quite open about their faith, and this has never been a problem. Perhaps the difference between their experience and yours is this: they genuinely want to contribute something positive to the department and learn from their encounters with others, whereas you have a confrontational attitude with everyone from the start, and only want to confirm that you are right and they are wrong.
For a university professor, Mike Adams displays a stunning ignorance of the nature of the concept of postmodernism, its self-acknowledged limitations, the tradition from which it arises, and the debates occurring within its discourse. If you want to learn about postmodernism, read something by Francois Lyotard or Raymond Williams. Or would that be too hard? Certainly it is much easier and immediately gratifying to stockpile guns and rant about shooting people.
Capitalism is the system we have. Our whole infrastructure and all of our institutions are adapted to it. Therefore, if you want to do something to help people, you have to do it within the capitalist framework. That doesn't mean capitalism is the greatest good and an end in itself.
