Obviously you've never read Ayn Rand. By the way, I am not a libertarian or an objectivist. I just use Ayn Rand as an example to show how stupid is the argument that the only good conservative is a capital-G God conservative.

By the way, Islamic fundamentalists are ALL capital-G God conservatives. And they are all socialists.

And you can scream till you're blue in the face that their capital-G God doesn't match the text of your capital-G God book, and they'll scream back that you're capital-G God doesn't match their capital-G God book.

For me, I prefer to judge people on their behavior. Christians are much better behaved than Moslems. That goes without saying. But it doesn't mean they are fundamentally less inclined to support socialism, or even, for that matter, fundamentally more conservative than any other group. Some Christians are conservative and some conservatives are Christian.

But to make the argument as lower-case-c coulter does that liberalism=godless, is, as I've already said, capital-I Idiocy.

Moore himself denounces Republicans as “people who hate … people who get up at six in the morning trying to figure out which minority group they’re going to screw today.”

Dammit, he found me out! Today I woke up and decided to screw Cameroon Highlanders.
(hmm, maybe I'll switch to Botswana Basarwaians. They're always an easy mark)

BTW Mikey, I get up at five, not six.

"And if coulter says god must be capitalized "

She doesn't.
The loony left can do what they like.


"By the way, my choice of what words to capitalize has no bearing on the validity of my argument"

It does.
It's the crux of the matter.
There are "gods" for those engaging in drunkenness, adulterers, purveyors of hate etc, and then there is the one true Christian God.


"And if coulter says god must be capitalized (i'm not saying she does say that, but it seems you're implying that) then she's a bigger idiot than i thought."

Naaaaah.
For that, you gotta look in the mirror.

I have read and know the Bible. That's what counts.
Ayn Rand is irrelevant.
He may be your god, he isn't mine.

"I just use Ayn Rand as an example to show how stupid is the argument that the only good conservative is a capital-G God conservative"


You have succeeded in doing the exact opposite of that, by porbing even more how really stupid the liberals are.


" and they'll scream back that you're capital-G God doesn't match their capital-G God book"

Liberals have been screaming anti-Chrsitian invective for so long (just listen to the drive-by media), that its become totally boring.
We don't even hear thenm when they scream anymore.

"For me, I prefer to judge people on their behavior"

That is why liberals liberals are Godless.
They are the biggest Bush-haters haters on the planet. They hate President Bush even more than the worst Al Quaeda psycho.

"But to make the argument as lower-case-c coulter does that liberalism=godless, is, as I've already said, capital-I Idiocy."

Look who's talking.

Zarqawi is/was a socialist?
Who knew?
Are you sure you took your meds this morning?

Bernadette Peters is an actress, singer, and dancer. She gets the best roles on Broadway in any show she feels like starring in. Her usual film role is a light-headed ditz, rather like many of Madeleine Kahn's parts, but like the late Ms. Kahn, those are just blow-off turns for a major talent.

She's very pretty, too, especially for a lady in her 50's.

"A lot of nice words in the article but when all is said and done, I see little Coulter does to further the conservative cause"

Just by hitting against the RATS campaign tactic of using tragedy victims as attack dogs and human shields alone, Ann Coullter has done conservatives and Republicans a hell of a lot of good.
Sh has in effect effectively taken down the most potent weapon the policy challenged RATS have been using.

"Her words are nothing more than emotions coming out."

You obviously haven't read the book. You sound like one if those clowns that regularly post anti-conservative bile at Amazon.com

Can you please explain to me what hating President Bush and believing in God have to do with one another? I really hesitate to go down that path!

If you need me to explain that to you, then you obviously know nothing about Christianity.

Again equating GWB and God is disturbing. I have some friends at church who are liberal, they don't like Bush but does that make them any less worthy of praying with me on a Sunday.

We have long ago learned not to talk politics and we get along well. Do their political beliefs make them hellbound, I think not.

Your attempt to equate GWB with religion is wrong.

What does a cheeseburger have to do with speaking The Truth? Seems Moore had his fill of them and it did the opposite.

Again, you either can't read or you don't understand English.

Your Kos/DU pals can like who they want.
On the other hand, when they spew out rabid, vile anti-Bush hate on constant basis, they sure are not Christians, no matter how much they dress and go to church on Sundays, and how much they sing.
Jesus himself had a word or two to say about such people.

No one is equating the President of the United States with God.

That is a slander that has emerged from your own fevered brain and does not correspond to any external reality.

Fact: If someone claims to believe in God and thinks it is OK to hate a fellow human being like the President who is trying to govern according to his conscience as a Christian, then they are lying about believing in God.

Do their political beliefs make them hellbound, I think not.

Do their political beliefs include supporting the murder of unborn children, the destruction of Israel or the destruction of traditional marriage?

Political beliefs can absolutely place one's soul in jeopardy - do you really think committed Nazis made it to heaven?

Many people profess to be Christians but we will know them by their fruits. Only those that acknowledge Christ as their personal Savior and follow His teachings and His Word daily are Christians - the others are CINO. That is where the word Christian comes from - Christ. Remember the passage..."I never knew you".

That said, there are those that are blinded with scales on their eyes. No words can penetrate their blindness. And we have seen that here first hand! As you know, God's Word is true - all the time, every time!

Yeah I think Jesus said, actually I think you should look it up Matthew 7:1.

That pretty much sums it up.
