No we don't wish to "let religions trump public policy choices". We with to let our religious convictions inform and influence our public policy choices. And that may absolutely steam you, but perhaps you are simply a religious bigot. Regardless, if you think that unlimited access to government funded abortion of innocent, nascent human life is a good public policy choice, perhaps you think a human being is no more valuable than a decayed tooth. And again, that's your prerogative. We disagree. And we will do our best to defeat you at the polls. Any other complaints?
I'm a musician who has studied in Cuba many times and count a multitude of Cubans as close friends. So firstly---the fact that many of these friends of mine have fled the island and live all around the globe, leaving their families behind to live in squalor should tell these liberals something. The fact that scores more lose their lives to sharks and whatnot trying to get to America every year in rickety boats fashioned from things like cars ought to drive the point home as well. If health care and education and all the other "free stuff" that Cubans get under communism is so great, why do they commonly perish trying to flee from the freebies? To the point then: it's true that every neighborhood in Havana has a doctor, and citizens can...
I think its so cute when young conservatives flirt with each other online. Oh to be young again...
Codified unfair discrimination against huge numbers of people that directly affects their ability to fare for themselves and feed their families for a lifetime---that's OK. Keeping a handful of kids from playing ball for a couple years, not so much.

When trolls look at each other they don't see homely little scraggly haired creatures with warts on their noses. They look good to one another.

Hey Greg, Isn't it remarkable how the talking head from CNN is not just reporting what Trump's concerns are, or asking him for more detail about them. (She then might also report some White House spokesman's response on behalf of President Obama) On the contrary, she is actually arguing Obama's case for him. Funny but I don't recall news reporters from CNN or any other MSM outlet arguing the Bush administration's case on Gitmo, Scooter Libby, WMD or any other controversial topic involving the former president or his team. I'm sure there's a logical reason why, in the interest of informing her viewers, that she has to invoke the Alan Colmes/Juan Williams acid test: "lots of people think/say" your ideas are faulty.
and yes, Jillian is obsessed with Matt Lewis...
I regularly read stuff at Townhall blog but must confess I don't usually read the comments section. What have I been missing? More trolls here than the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. And what a hoot reading their defenses: Center-right folks are all 'repressed' cause they don't know the hip sexual deviant underground lingo that the MSNBC crowd uses to make fun of them with...after all, it's not just a gay thing, it's a metrosexual thing, in "all the porn films" dontcha know? Keep talking trolls. Your comments say more about you than anything we can come up with.
Michael Moore and co.like to think Cuba has a very enlightened healthcare system. I work in healthcare and have also travelled to Cuba many times to study music in Havana. These photos show squalor typical of much of the population's housing. Flies everywhere, bare wood furniture, bare floors, peeling paint. The average professional makes $8 a month. Consumer goods cost the same as in the U.S. The rations for food are abysmal: no meat, a couple of eggs per month, a little bag of rice, one of beans. Just enough food to slowly waste away. While its true that every block has a doctor people can see for free the best doctors are sent abroad to make Castro's system "look good",like the Olympic sports teams."Look how good our system works!"...
Munck freely admits he disrespects other posters here. Great method of persuasion eh what?
