I have questions I want answered. If anyone has can answer them for me, please do. Its important to note that I am not interested in opinions. Opinions are what got us into this mess. I want answers. I want to know when we decided as a nation, that it was ok to not be decent to each other.
I want to understand how it is possible that just because a woman has different opinions than you, she can be compared to Hitler. I need for someone to explain to me how a young girl can go for a run, and be raped and murdered by a man who never should have been released from prison.
I want to know how we can commend people for having faith, yet persecute them for practicing religion. I want to know how I am supposed to raise my son to care about this country, when the people who lead this country, and shape his future, cant play nicely together.
I need for someone to help me understand how the people in my life with the happiest and most loving of relationships, Andy and Patrick, Bill and Bill, Scott and Paul, Leslie and Michelle, are not allowed to get married, when people who never should have gotten married, are allowed.

It’s hard to work together in harmony when people have a totally different world view from yours. Just as the Jews find the world view of the Palestinians unacceptable, conservatives can’t accept as valid people who deny and defame the constitution, profess support for world government, socialism, Marxism, Maoism and communism. It’s very hard for a person who values life to accept as valid the views of people who do not support life at all stages including the yet to be born and the elderly.
Arguing and fighting is legitimate and necessary. We have Christians and Jews today because they knew there was something worth fighting for and we have a Republic today only because it remains worth fighting for. Reject out of hand the “Can’t we all just get along” argument.

Is, ‘liberals from the far left screaming about civility’ the meme this week?
I’ve seen a half-dozen articles and op/eds in this very same vein!
Must have something to do with passing the healthcare bs and those mean Republicans and the mean Americans that don’t WANT this bs.
Ya think? ;)
michelle obama and sarah palin having lunch??? thats like george bush and hugo chevez having lunch together and holding hands.. not gonna happen
Oh okay, I didn’t know you guys were following her already... should have figured. Yes, this is one “friend” Sarah may questionably not need, huh. Her pic and her writings show a very intense, possibly manic, individual. But for those who live here in L.A., she is no surprise.
I think that right there is one of the richest ironies one will ever encounter.
My guess is that the two women would get along just fine.
