Deny God and just get it over with already.

Im glad to see the anti-god, pro gay marriage, pro infanticide liberal socialist democrats, who have hijacked  the traditional party of the working man, revealed for what they really are.

They should just get it over with and condemn all people of faith and declare their hatred of God.  That is the democratic party.

Dred,

Tech goes through an "adjustment" every 8-10 years like clockwork. My dad was in tech before me ... always been this way. So I don't hold that against Bush.

What I do hold against him was the offshoring incentives which left many of the people who help create the boom of the 90's lucky to find a job at WalMart. The massive greed at the top which let executives remain in place while 1000's got layed off or oursourced was sickening. That's Ken Lay territory - I'm sure you've heard the tapes from Enron - bastards. They slip the noose, everyone else gets hosed. Did anyone from Anderson ever go to jail even? It's the tone that he and Cheney presided over that really hurt people.

Around 2002 San Fran. was the fastest shrinking city in the US. It cost about 3 times as much to rent a U-Haul leaving the city as going to it - if you could find a U-Haul in SF. If that had been Dallas or Miami, something tells me it would have been looked at.

WAS?   Doc, that greed is alive and well and hungrier than ever.
One of the ramifications of Bush's reelection is a bright green light for outsourcing and more corporate shenanigans like Enron and Anderson.

What you refer to as the "trash can" in theory, sounds like a good arguement, but the reality seems to cause more problems to evolutionists then creationists.

The Geologic Column: Does It Exist?

A sample from the link:

Quote
Now what does all this mean?  Common sense teaches us that 16 miles (at most) which exists, out of a total of 100 or 200 miles, is a very incomplete column! It remains primarily an invention of the uniformitarian imagination, and a textbook orthodoxy.  So, although there are places where lithologies referable to all ten of the Phanerozoic systems can actually be seen superposed, creationists remain more than justified in highlighting the essential non-existence of the standard geologic column.  And we have not even touched such matters as overlapping fossil ranges, non-superposed index fossils, and many other things, which expose the non-reality of the geologic column.  That is, most fossils found are for only one geologic system (e.g. Devonian), and most index fossils do not actually superpose at the same locality.  In other words, most locations with Devonian fishes are not overlain by rocks bearing Cretaceous ammonites, and most locations with Cretaceous ammonites do not overlie localities with Devo
nian fishes.  The same can be said for all the index fossils of all of the geologic systems.

Agreed, they are there. But do you not see the same in the other party? It seems to me that that party has made a living on racial discrimination and religious hatred. The link Vudak provided is just an example.

You can find extreme behaviour/ideas in both parties.  The fact that you point at one or two nut jubs and with a sweeping judgment label all Christians is bigotry.  Flat out.  The majority of the "right wing" Christians you hear them whining about on CNN are none other than your average midwestern/southerner.  They go to church every week, live quite normal, everyday lives, and voted for Bush because they saw right through Kerry.  I mean come on, who couldn't?  

They voted because Bush HAS, or at least seems to have similar moral values.  There is nothing wrong with that.  Pretty much with Bush what you see is what you get.  The guy speaks his mind, and does what he says, even if what he says/does is not "popular" with everyone.  Vs. Kerry, who quite obviously would say/do anything to get elected.  I liked alot of what Kerry said.  I thought he did well in the debates, and made some great points.  Unfort. most those points, and ideas that he had were just the opposite of what his TRUE feelings/opinions are.  I base my knowledge of his TRUE feelings/opinions on his voting record, and what he has done in the past.  A long, LONG time ago I quit judging people by their words.  Words are cheap.  I judge a man by his actions.  A simple review of Kerry's life, how he voted on issues, and what he has done in the past were all I needed to see him for what he is.  I don't dislike the guy, heck, he seemed genuine and quite likeable during his concession speach, but come on, he was hardly credible.  Most of what spewed from his mouth before the election was exactly opposite of what he has said/done in the past.  

Anywhoo I rant.  

There is nothing at all wrong with getting back to moral values in this contry.  High time.

I think he is referring to the Gay marriage issue.
and there they could probably have what they want if they just called it something other then "Marriage"

Its that word that many have the most problem with.

Only other issue is that of Gay couples raising children.
And just based on my own personal observations Im not sure I agree that that dispite what people say to the contrary is an altogether healthy situation for a child

Of course there are extremist and political opportunists on both sides. I've mentioned a few of them in posts (e.g., Al Sharpton, John Edwards, Micheal Moore etc.) The first time I used the term Dixiecrat was in reference to John Edwards.

But you have 95% of the OC pointing out the potatos to the left. You only have a few posts in the OC pointing out the potatos to the right.
