"I am not incestuous. I am not a bigamist. I just happen to be bisexual. It offended me."

The scriptures lump gays in with adulterers, thieves, drunks, liars, and swindlers in with those who will not inherit the kingdom of God. I don't recall any condemnation of polygamy. Also, Clinton needs to shut his pie hole.

[Phantom Lord]

This is getting a lot more play than the same thing happening to Donahue at NC State.

[Lunatic Fringe]

For the LAST TIME! He did not liken homosexuality to any of those other acts! He simply said, if the USSC finds the law unconstituional based on privacy, then what would keep them from finding laws against OTHER sexual acts unconstitutiional based on privacy?

These are supposed to be educated college students?

[Paul Atreides]

"Senator Santorum and I are at completely opposite ends of the spectrum," said graduate Sara Foglesong, among those who walked out. "I am not incestuous. I am not a bigamist. I just happen to be bisexual. It offended me."

So, you little twit, you get to pick and choose what the Bible says about homosexuality? Well, if you think that it is wrong about homosexuality, then who is to say that it isn't wrong about bigamy?

[The Old Hoosier]

Santorum is a hero for not caving in to organized gaydom. I wish there were more lawmakers with the balls to take on this issue, because it is a winner politically.

[Van Jenerette]

...for class reading.

So much for a St Joseph education. Catholicism is about belief in the Scripture. These 1 in 8 don't belong at this college in the first place. This seems to be a good way to weed out the students that shouldn't get diplomas or other accredidation.

Of course there are probably professors that don't belong there either.

[geedee]

Santorum is a hero for not caving in . . .

AMEN!!

In another commencement speech Sunday, Former President Clinton blasted President Bush for his opposition to affirmative action in college admissions and accused him of neglecting domestic issues.

Science conflirms: Politicians lie

After intensive research, scientists have concluded that politicians lie.

In a study described in Britain's Observer newspaper, Glen Newey, a political scientist at Britain's University of Strathclyde, concluded that lying is an important part of politics in the modern democracy.

"Politicians need to be more honest about lying," he told the newspaper.

According to Newey, whose findings were published by the government-funded Economic and Social Research Council, voters expect to be lied to in certain circumstances, and sometimes even require it.

"Politics should be regarded as less like an exercise in producing truthful statements and more like a poker game," he said. "And there is an expectation by a poker player that you try to deceive them as part of the game."

But the main cause of lying is increased probing by the public into areas that the government would rather not discuss candidly. If voters only asked fewer questions, politicians would tell them fewer lies.

Bill Clinton famously lied about his affair with Monica Lewinsky, while earlier philandering U.S. presidents never had to lie about their affairs, because nobody ever asked.

When it comes to perversion, the deviants always seem to say "I just happen to be a...." Their actions define them, so they do not "happen to be," they actively engage in and identify with the acts.

This blowing-with-the-wind language reminds me of a woman who said she "found herself taking classes to be a Lutheran pastor." She did not apply and enroll? She did not go through the certification process? She did not move to the school? She did not pay money for tuition and buy books?

We should find these magic wands and pull out the batteries.

[Ronaldus Magnus Reagan]

"I am not incestuous. I am not a bigamist. I just happen to be bisexual. It offended me."

So, let me see if I got this straight. They're saying that homosexuality is not a lifestyle choice like those other choices such as adultery,polygamy,incest, etc. If so, then they're saying that you're born with it(homosexuality). What they're saying is that Dr. Laura was RIGHT!! You were born with a biological error. Then why did they slam her for saying that?

one in every eight graduates walked out

In other words, seven of every eight stayed.

Does a bisexual believe in monogamy? If so, they prove that one can be "oriented" to a certain type of sex and still refrain.

Actually it was a reporter named Bill Bergstrom. His name was listed on the WashingPost article I saw, but not on the NYTimes article which I posted (to get around the Compost whole article posting ban as per the FR settlement agreement).

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

said graduate Sara Foglesong, among those who walked out. "I am not incestuous. I am not a bigamist. I just happen to be bisexual.It offended me."

So she'll have sex with anyone, yet she is offended. Interesting. I am sure that her parents are so very proud.

I recall a number of graduates snubbing Clinton as well.

Does a bisexual believe in monogamy?

No, it's just an excuse to be a slut with twice the number of people.
