I sure am having a difficult time understanding your posts, firebrand.

I agree with you 100 percent eagle....the libs pull every kind of manipulative, nasty, violent tactic there is...all we are doing is fighting back and bringing attention to an issue which is of great importance.

Let Keyes debate TOTUS!

POTUS can’t even debate TOTUS. POTUS cannot complete a coherent sentence without TOTUS.

It will be interesting to see what the actual charges are.

You made a very good point that Keyes talks about the rule of law, and now here he is breaking it. Thus, I said “good point.” But there is a more important issue here than making good points-—more important, even, than obeying the law in this case. I don’t think I can make it any clearer than that.

Sometimes as you know soldier you have to do what you have to in order to bring the issue to the forefront..and yes it's unattractive, and some may find it gruesome, but these folks feel very strongly about the rights of the unborn.

Ppl like you fought for their right to express themselves freely...

>>some of them pushing baby carriages with dolls covered in fake blood,<<

That strikes me as non-helpful, at best.

We don’t seem to be doing all that well at the voting both. That hasn’t been very helpful either.

I'm sorry, but I think that kind of stuff isn't useful at all. It just turns people off, rather than changing hearts and minds.

What evidence do you have?

Shallow oven pans filled with ketchup covered doll parts would have been a more realistic demonstration.

Appleas and organges. Don’t blow it back at me because I don’t believe in breaking the law on a college campus for any reason.

There are rules on campus about individuals not being allowed to demonstrate. We break the rules and then the left breaks them and we can say NOTHING!

I would never criticize demonstrating off campus but the minute you go on campus and you are not part of a campus group you are out of line.

Funny, how the Common Sense Conservatives like me believe in the Rule of Law for all not for one particular group and that is where the actions of a few to break the law and get arrested taint the rest of us.

Conservatives have no more right to break the laws on the Notre Dame campus then the liberals. It is their campus not ours and they set the rules.

Is Keyes Catholic? Catholics throughout the Midwest are quite liberal, aren’t they, endorsing all kinds of liberal ideas and candidates?

The only thing that will work is for the “donors” to withdraw their funding. H.L. Mencken once said that in a university the word “conscience” is that “little voice that says your funding might be jeopardized”. I don’t think people in IN can understand that though.

Obama defeated Keyes in 2004, and the voters went some 3-2 for Obama. People in IL don’t understand either. That state has done a lot to destroy America.

I believe Keyes is, and yes the average American Catholic (but not Keyes) is rather lefty.
