****ing, at least in my case, is being used as an adjective or adverb (I can't remember which, maybe JohnT GRAMMAR NAZI can correct me), NOT a verb

It's more fun to read it that way though. I usually have to stiffle asking them thier opinion on Dick.

He may be throwing the fundies a bone, but it sure makes it harder for his more moderate supporters, (like me) to continue to vote for him.

Would have it been so hard to just say that you don't agree but it's up to the courts to decide?

Ming once said you guys were using the religous right. I think its rather obvious they are using you. It's not just in this case, either.

Feb. 24, 2004 | George Bush's proposed 2005 budget cuts funding for veterans' healthcare and public housing. It freezes funding for after-school programs and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families grants. It provides less than one-sixth of the increase needed to close the budget shortfall in the AIDS Drug Assistance Program, which helps low-income HIV patients access medical care and lifesaving drugs. It cuts state Medicaid funding by $1.5 billion.

Yet when it comes to abstinence education, money seems to be no object. Bush's budget recommends $270 million for programs that try to dissuade teenagers from having sex, double the amount spent last year. Much of that money would be given in grants to Christian organizations such as Youth for Christ and to anti-abortion groups operating so-called crisis pregnancy centers, outfits that masquerade as women's health clinics but deliver a strongly anti-abortion message and often medically inaccurate information. It would pay for school programs that teach kids that premarital sex leads to psychological maladies and that sex with condoms is a kind of viral Russian roulette.

You'll have to go through an advert if you want to read it.

edit: found someting interesting near end of article:

None of the 2003 grants went to Jewish or Muslim groups.

* Potassium awaits ben kenobi to come in this thread and parrot his "LOL GAYS CAN MARRY! THEY JUST HAVE TO MARRY THE OTHER SEX" argument AGAIN

Why should I disappoint my DL fans?



Gays can marry. They just have to marry someone of the opposite sex.

As for this constitutional amendment, nice to see Bush finally standing up for what he believes in.

I challenge that poll of 58% against a ban, I would think it to be closer to 48% than 58%.

There is support for a constitutional amendment, and people like the mayor of San Francisco encourage those folks to get active who otherwise would not.

So a big to Bush.

The point is he won't get anything else other than his base, which consists of Christian fundamentalists.

They have consistently voted for him, and will continue to do so in the future.

I would disagree that the courts should decide, it ought to be up to the legislature. Let the people have a say on the issue.

Why is that such an offensive position?
