Heterosexual Ivy League Professor Kills Wife
jklugman
by jklugman  6-30-2009    2
 Since people are entertaining the idea that we should ban gay adoption because an allegedly gay man is accused of molesting his adopted son, I think it is only fair that we ask, in light of this incident, if we should ban marriages involving straight men, economists, or Ivy League professors.

 We see the ecological fallacy appear here on Clipmarks all the time 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ] usually by people who want to say "conservatives are more/less _____ because red states are ______, liberals are less/more_______ because blue states are ________." Here is an example of how that logic can result in the WRONG conclusion.

 “Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.” - Pope Paul VI

by ColoradoRight  6-24-2009    11
 The use of planted questioners is a no-no at presidential news conferences, because it sends a message to the world -- Iran included -- that the American press isn't as free as advertised. He already has every press person in DC kissing his butt and he still has to stage questions.

The father of Sociology suggests it is not a science
willhelm
by willhelm  6-24-2009    3
 From article: That’s it! That is basis for the whole sociological dictatorship. Suggest problems for emotional involvement and demand the intellect devise social solutions. It can turn any personal problem into a social problem, a social problem into a national problem, and a national problem into an international problem belonging to all humanity. Social science treats life as a series of problems for ‘society’ or united ‘Humanity’ to solve. When all the problems the social scientists can concoct from any part of the world become social problems for the WORld Management System (WORMS) to solve, the sociological dictatorship will be complete. The basic tactic for turning personal problems into social problems is to promote otherism. To be otheristic one must abandon all thought of self and think constantly of the problems of others.

Who Stands With The Freedom Fighters of Iran?
merrie
by merrie  6-21-2009    8
 Iran's dictatorship is the heart of much of Islamic terrorism and violence throughout the Middle East and the world. Ridding the world of that evil transcends the more narrow concerns about Iranian nuclear development! President Obama, behind the curve of even Democrats in his own party in the House who voted unanimously for a resolution sponsored by Mike Pence, (R-IN) to "Condemn the ongoing violence against demonstrators by the Government of Iran and pro-government militias," finally some additional fortitude Saturday afternoon and released the following statement: The statement above is a subtle shift from Obama's statements earlier in the week where he repeated the phrase "respect Iranian sovereignty" which is code for respect the dictatorship of the Mullahs. Today's phrase "If the Iranian government seeks the respect of the international community" is a subtle, but significant shift.

More Evidence of Stability in Abortion Attitudes
jklugman
by jklugman  6-18-2009   
 This is by political scientist Alan Abramowitz, a highly regarded scholar of public opinion. In addition to this result, the new CBS/NYT poll found that 62 percent of respondents considered the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion "a good thing" for the country while only 32 percent considered the decision "a bad thing" for the country. And 64 percent of respondents said they did not want the decision to be overturned by the Court compared with only 29 percent who did.

 Please compare the class and presentation of these sites articles about their ideological opponent's Vice Presidential candidate. Just like we witness at Clipmarks, most progressives are children. The Liberalpedia boasts 100% truth, but it is probably only slightly more truthful than the opinion and assertions made here at Clipmarks.

Randall Terry compares anti-abortion killer to Nat Turner
jklugman
by jklugman  6-11-2009   
  At this moment in time the abolitionists did not blink. They did not blink. They said, “Slavery is kidnapping. It is a crime against God and man.” They said, “It is an abomination.” They said the slave owners were kidnappers and man-stealers. They railed against the slave power. They railed against the politicians of the deep south and in the U.S. Congress that sustained slavery. They did not flinch. And if we in the pro-life movement are going to prevail, we have got to take the lesson of the abolitionists.

  After the Bernadotte murder, David Ben Gurion disbanded Lehi and arrested its members for being members of a banned organization. But miraculously, they were all released five months later under a political amnesty. No one was ever charged with the killing. Lehi’s brave members revealed their participation in the assassination in 1977 after the statue of limitations had expired.
