I smell a giant world-wide Islamic CONSPIRACY! So glad you uncovered it!

Paranoid much? Boo!

Nice cut and paste job from "moral entrepreneur" and chronic self-promoter Prager. If he believes there are "good arguments and good people on both sides of the issue," why doesn't he name them and state their arguments and test them, one against the other. But that would require more than cutting and pasting. Real thought might be required instead of simply tagging on a snarky rejoinder to wrap things up a the end. Sometimes there aren't good arguments on either side of an issue, and this I think is one of them. "The left" does not believe that there are "nefarious motives behind those who believe the Islamic Center does not belong near ground zero." This is the kind of cheap shot Prager is famous for: gross...

Are you referring to the "moral entrepreneur," radio talk jock and ubiquitous pitchman Dennis "I wore this suit to the White House" Prager? The tower of wisdom who is quite willing to redefine torture but for heaven's sake, not marriage? He has now moved on from "same sex marriage will confuse little Johnny" (and likely frighten the horses) to another lame-o excuse for discriminating and denying other citizens the right of marriage, which he has exercised himself three times, thank you very much. Fellow Republican Ted Olson would rip his weak, baseless argument to threads. He offers no concrete proof (something he's famous for: baseless opinions) as to how granting others their right to marry will harm his or anyone else's marriage....

Written by someone who has obviously not spent a single day, let alone a week or month in an urban public school classroom. Mr. Prager's 12 years attending private yeshivas in Brooklyn, a BA degree from Brooklyn College and a wash-out of Columbia graduate school without a degree, (which always goes unmentioned) hardly qualifies him to make speeches to educators. Like his 10 (or was it 13, or 12, or 7) questions to ask universities before enrolling your children, Mr. Prager's speech is political and addresses none of the critical issues facing public schools today. It's indicative of his hypocrisy that Mr. Prager did not send his own children to Bob Jones or Liberty University, no, he sent them to that bastion of conservatism, UCLA,...

While I find Mr. Prager's latest contention that "liberals destroy more than they create" to be preposterous and despicable and the hate-filled, violent responses from his followers to be beneath contempt, it is ironic that the ACLU would be the first and only organization to come to his defense to protect his freedom of speech. The ACLU was founded in 1920 to protect freedoms guaranteed to all Americans in the Constitution and Bill of Rights. They have defended cases across the ideological spectrum and our nation is the better for it. They have protected religious freedoms and were at the forefront of the civil rights movement as well as striking down anti-miscegenation laws, which allowed inter-racial couples to marry. They have...

While I find the contention that 'the "left" destroys more than it creates' to be both odious and preposterous, and the responses to be hate-filled, ugly and violent, it is ironic that the ACLU is the only organization in the US that would defend Mr. Prager's right to spew this invective in defense of his freedom of speech. The ACLU has defended the Bill of Rights across the ideological spectrum since its founding in 1920 and America is a better nation for it. The ACLU has protected the practice of religious beliefs and was in the vanguard of the civil rights movement that struck down laws that fostered discrimination and codified segregation, as well as defeating laws that banned inter-racial marriage. They also defended great works...

Mr. Prager has been more than willing to redefine torture, but not marriage. Could it be that his last 2 marriages were torture enough and he is merely trying to save his many gay friends from the pain?

Explain how "Judgement Day," virgin birth, "His only begotten son" is logical in any shape or form since logic implies proof. These are all emotional appeals to an ancient god you happen to believe in and use to support your vile, bigoted views. You want to deny people the rights you freely enjoy and you're using "religion" to do it. That is illogical and fallacious.

Rich is a writer with an elegant style, whether you agree with him or not. He makes arguments and backs them up with facts, especially in this piece about allowing gays to serve their country openly. Dennis "I wore this suit to the White House" Prager on the other hand, has the most lumpen, stilted, humorless, witless unimaginative prose style on the planet. And his arguments are pure beliefs which he never feels compelled to back up with facts. Rich is in the big leagues, writing for "the paper of record," the NYT. Prager plods his unoriginal bigoted ideas along with a pack of other hacks on this "fair and balanced" site. The vile ideas that Prager trucks in are revealed for what they are by the despicable posts they elicit from...
