don't you see? we have to destroy the gays to save us from the Muslims. (though, ironically, hating gays is something Republicans and Muslims have in common) |

DOMA protects Americans from having polygamy legally recognized by courts or agencies without a change of law. If you've been reading the thread English citizens apparently have no such protection. I'm glad we do. |

There is little wrong with having between two and only two people.

Let's return to commenting on the death of bin Laden only. I stand by my views that Islamism and Sharia are not conductive to pluralism, liberalism, economic, social, religious or political freedom. If someone would like to start a thread and argue otherwise, tell me what Islamic country the West should emulate... I'll be happy to join in.

There isn't an Islamic country we should try to currently emulate, but then that wasn't always the way and neither was the West always where there were the states that we should try emulate. Some of our ideals may be the best things going at the moment, but our practices as in any moment in history still fall some what short.

You'll find very, very few people stand up against DOMA because they think polygamy should be legalized. ETA: Are you familiar with the legal concept of the least restrictive means? |

No one ever did, it's just the same old tea line bullshit argument. It didn't work in 5th grade and it doesn't work now, but somehow become their go to method of debate.

i agree with you. on a personal note, gays get hung in Iran. i certainly don't want that here. i firmly believe in secularism. but i don't find any evidence at all of "creeping" Sharia Law anywhere, certainly not in Oklahoma, and it's little more than a smokescreen for pure racism and discomfort with pluralism. |

A Brooklyn-based Hasidic newspaper removed Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and another woman from the now-iconic photo of the Obama national security team watching the raid that killed Osama bin Laden from the White House Situation Room.
The original photo, taken as the raid was occurring, famously shows Clinton in the center of the room, with her hand over her mouth. But the newspaper Der Tzitung, described by the Jewish Week as "ultra-Orthodox," has a policy of never printing photos of women in its pages because it thinks they could be sexually suggestive. Thus, Clinton and counterterrorism director Audrey Tomason, who was seen standing at the back of the room, were removed from the picture. The blogger Failed Messiah was the first to notice the Photoshopping. UPDATE: Der Tzitung sent a statement to the press, apologizing for altering the photo—which the White House had forbidden news outlets from doing—and explaining why they had removed Clinton and Tomason. “In accord with our religious beliefs, we do not publish photos of women, which in no way relegates them to a lower status," the statement said in part. "... Because of laws of modesty, we are not allowed to publish pictures of women, and we regret if this gives an impression of disparaging to women, which is certainly never our intention. We apologize if this was seen as offensive.” ![]() |

will there be the same rush from the right to condemn this clear violation of women's rights?
i personally don't agree with the call, and the 16th century-tastic view of women it propogates, but it's pretty harmless. retarded, but harmless. |

Rosie O'Donnell Osama Bin Laden | Bin Laden Deserved A Trial | Mediaite
__________________Rosie O’Donnell is making some waves suggesting America may have become the type of “monsters” we loathe with our targeted killing of Osama bin Laden. Uncomfortable with the wild celebrations last week of “drunken fraternity boys” celebrating Bin Laden’s death in New York and Washington, Rosie also reveals that she expects America to be an example for how we want other countries to act and was disappointed we were not the leader of morality and fairness here. Rosie explains: “You can also be upset about the fact that he didn’t have due process, that he didn’t get tried, that he wasn’t you know brought to The Hague for war-crime tribunal. . . . Many, many people, including now on the Twitter feed say, ‘Well, Rosie, it was illegal for them to fly planes into the Twin Towers.’ I’m fully aware of that. Because other people are capable of criminal acts on our soil doesn’t equate to ‘therefore, we are allowed to do criminal acts on their soil.’” Never one to shy away from her opinion, Rosie wonders, “you don’t want to become what you loathe, wasn’t the whole point of this is that we are not monsters?” |
