Does the NRA support Hezbollah’s right to bear arms in Lebanon?…

I have no qualms about the FBI issuing a NSL [National security letter] but I resent their right to snoop into my financial records what with identity theft on the rise. Surely, there must be a better way to monitor suspects rather than randomly including average citizens.…

According to David Broder, Ohioans couldn’t care less about the economy, scandals, or lukewarm over Katrina, but they’re obsessed with the abysmal prosecution of the war, particularly since the August ambush of Ohio Marines, killing fourteen.…

Could it be that Creationism interprets the serpent in the Garden of Eve as tyrannosaurus Rex?…Incidentally did the Garden spring overnight from hot lava?…

The Catholic Church optimistically requires homosexuals contemplating the priesthood to overcome their preference — why can’t they simply commit to celibacy and hanky panky as the heterosexual priests are expected to do?…

It is insulting and obscene to suggest — as did a TV weatherman decades ago and was fired — that a woman “lay back and enjoy it” when raped; then is it presumed that a fourteen year old boy resist while an adult female ravages his innocence?… Forgive my crudeness.

forget oil revenues. imagine the sponsorship fees if the iraqi factions could just take a meeting with an agent like ovitz and have him negotiate a deal to promote them as the nra poster-country.

Probably not, since the N is National.  Not International.

As long as it's in their bill of rights, I'm all for it. Murder's a no-no, but having a gun, okay. Oh, what's that you say? Huh. No terrorist bill of rights? Well I'm sure they'll vote for it in their next democratic election.....

In God We Trust, all others we monitor.

Nope, although fossil evidence now conclusively proves that the serpent was in fact a distant ancestor of Teresa Heinz Kerry, and the apple was actually a large roma tomato, such as the delicious tomatos used in wonderful, creamy, Heinz tomato ketchup! Mmmmm......it's so good, it's sinful.....

"Does the NRA support Hezbollah’s right to bear arms in Lebanon?…"


Hezbullah is an organized crime, terroristic organization. I am unaware of the NRA supporting the right of criminals to own firearms. A better question would be would the NRA support the right of people threatened by Hezbullah to own guns. Given the usefulness of gun control in the US, if it were used in the middle east only terrorist organizations would own them...

I'm sure the repressive governments of the Middle East would agree, though.

Because Catholic doctrine deems homosexuality a sin, the urge itself. Homosexuality + inordinate sex equals two sins. You differ, no doubt, but that doesn't mean there is some objective reality that makes their beliefs invalid.

You shouldn't infer that there is an "objective reality" to my comment, but simply alternative subjectivity.

Gosh, you need to lighten up, man.
