He doesn't put his hand over his heart during the national anthem and sometimes turns his back to the flag.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

On CG it does. Bite your tongue.

Supporting universal health care makes you naive and a socialist.

Yeah, I hated it when Mitt dropped out.

And they let him take his oath of office on the Kurran. Can you believe that?

Worse, he may be a vegetarian extremist:

I just wish Mike Huckabee would have told me who to support after he conceded the race because I'd hate to have to think for myself. My pastor tells me no good can come from independent thinking. (Of course that doesn't make any sense anyway because I'm a conservative Republican and not a Independent.)

The only think I would disagree with the writer - and it's not really a disagreement, but more of an amendment to make his comment more true - would be that yes, it is possible that the recession could continue if McCain is elected - first, the economy just happens despite who is in office and I mock his being so sure it would continue - but the economy would get worse and worse if either Mrs. Clinton or Obama is elected. What they are proposing is socialism - yes, Cali, despite your objection, it is socialism - is much too expensive because government mandated business decisions never work. (Just ask the former Soviet Union).

Thanks for that link, Barbara. It brought a smile to my face.
It isn't my objection, Il Pad. It is the dictionary's and the English language's. But keep fighting the good fight. And the government mandates business decisions all the time that work. In fact, they facilitate capitalism in many instances.

Do you still believe that socialism is not about the state deciding who gets the money?

Very few government mandates are positive. Most are a hindrance and punish people who do what they need to do to survive.
