As a guest on the program, Donahue's behavior is consistent with his previous media appearances. However, Keyes' unfairness, given his position as host, is inexcusable. Keyes clearly was unable to put aside his own beliefs and biases to allow for a respectful discussion of the issues.

Now how much should we bet that GLAAD or whatever this website is from does not bleat this about liberal commentators' shows?

The difference in statements by President Bush ("Anyone who harbors a terrorist is a terrorist" vs. "What Israel is doing now is not helping the peace process") is quite striking, however.

How can one disagree with the point Keyes is making here - that the principles which defined our policy towards terrorism immediately post-9/11 appear to have changed, particularly regarding other victims of terrorism? Does Israel not have every right that we claim to unleash hell upon any group which will dare practice terrorism against her civilians as well as upon any group or government which funds and/or harbors these same terrorists? If not, then why not?

I saw that show, and I was wishing that most of the Cardinals had the grasp of and committment to Catholic teaching that Keyes has. I was cheering him on when he made his comments to the women pointing out their errors-Cervone's statement "I believe God finds homosexual relationships whole and holy" was the corker, and Alan rightly said it may be an opinion, but it's not what the Catholic Church says..I think that he said that, "you're part of the problem thing" after that.

More and more people are watching his show. I would hate if it was moved or taken off the air..I would much rather watch Alan Keyes than the choices on the other two cable news stations during that time slot.

LL's likely an American citizen, so that qualifies him, though less his critique of Keyes' reservations of relativism,
where given over instead to moral dereliction, one cannot, nor will not consider anything at its fundamental level.

They appear to want all Americans to bend over and accept the homosexualization of American society, including the Catholic Church. When it becomes "defamation" to point out that the overwhelming majority of the current sex abuse allegations involve homosexuals, you know you are dealing with people in denial.

Mega Dittos! If I'd had to choose between Keyes and Bush it would have been VERY difficult. This man has guts and not a whole lot of 'back-up' in him. Maybe it's not his time yet, but I hope it's coming soon.

There is no legal requirement that justices of the Supreme Court be lawyers.

From GLAD:

"The New York Times," most notably, has done an exceptional job of presenting an informed analysis of and discourse on the full complexity of the controversy.

That's because 3/4 of the editorial board of the NY Times is Lesbian or Homosexual! No surprise here...

MSNBC is going to think it's some kind of form letter. Mine was very similar also.:)

We don't take a vote on that! Because you can't vote on God's law. He makes it; we don't.

Game, set, match.

EXACTLY!!

From the start, Keyes -- long known as one of the extreme fringe members of the far right -- and guest William Donohue of the Catholic League not only attacked and gratuitously insulted the other guests on the show (Mary Louise Cervone of Dignity/USA, the nation's largest LGBT Catholic membership organization, and Sister Maureen Fiedler of Catholics Speak Out), but also insulted gay Catholics in general -- with Keyes lecturing the guests who disagreed with him that their opinions on the matter were irrelevant because they did not conform to his religious beliefs.

Instead of addressing the issue Keyes raised on his show that night, that the two female guests' opinions were inconsistent with the Catholic Church's position, GLAAD resorts to name-calling and to twisting Keyes' statement. It's telling that they would consider being in harmony with the Catholic Church's mainstream Christian teachings against sexual licentiousness as "extreme fringe."
