    Eric Holder: Drone strikes against Americans on U.S. soil are legal

    Totally irrelevant. TOTALLY. In both those cases, federal agents had federal warrants or probable cause to initiate a search-and-seizure. In other words, they had exercised due process. In Mr. Holder's case, he's justifying the president's use of military or civilian resources to execute an...

    Something Rotten in Washington

    OR, you're absolutely wrong. If Hillary were nominated today, I can guarantee you she would beat any Republican put up against. Not saying that because I support her; I don't. It's a fact that of any Democrat that could be nominated right now, she's got the name recognition and the...

    Honest Question: Why do we place a stigma on certain Sins?

    The difference is sinners and unrepentent sinners. As was pointed out, when sin is called good, acceptable, and even something to aspire to, then those that hold the truth must shout out that it is not good, acceptable, or something to aspire to. Where I think Zaac is trying to determine the...

    Something Rotten in Washington

    "Who knows" is not an acceptable reason for pursuing this. I normally agree you on 90-98% of things; on this one, you're correct that there is some weirdness going on with the "quietness" around the affair. It's too late to tie it to the election--unless it can be shown that the situation was...

    DOJ: Children Do Not Need—and Have No Right to--Mothers

    If this is true, it chills me to the bone. If a child does not need a mother or father, then don't we have a new defense for abortion? I'm having a hard time expressing this in terms that make sense, but it's reciprocity: if a child doesn't "need" a mother or father, then a mother and/or father...

    Why he left IFB

    (sigh) As I stated in a previous post, and have reiterated in multiple other posts, I do not deny there are such churches; and most of them are associated with the Hyles and/or Ruckerman circles. I take issue with the inflammatory language, and the logical fallacies. For example, let's look...

    Texas student punished for refusing to recite Mexican pledge

    I disagree, Gina. What was the purpose of making them recite the pledge? Why did it have to be the pledge? Moreover, she accepted another assignment; but this young lady who allegedly made good grades in every other aspect of this class and in her other classes, suddenly fails that alternative...

    Texas student punished for refusing to recite Mexican pledge

    So - as long as it's a class assignment, we can also require them to recite the American pledge of allegiance? Give them a grade for it? Forget the school policies, ladies and gentlemen; we just found the loophole we've all been looking for.

    Texas student punished for refusing to recite Mexican pledge

    www.theblaze.com/stories/2011/10/17/blaze-exclusive-tx-high-school-students-made-to-recite-mexican-national-anthem-pledge-of-allegiance/ I agree; re-read the last part(s) of my last post.

    Why he left IFB

    2,173 members on BB. Each member page lists 30 members. A randomly-chosen page showed 5 of those 30 as non-baptist. Generally speaking, that leads to a conclusion of about 1,800 members who are baptist. 6% of that number comes out to about 110 members. First, I invite you to encourage those...

    Texas student punished for refusing to recite Mexican pledge

    Don't need to do "a better search"; a better search pointed out that this story was originally reported in October 2011. My question was, why is it being reported on again? The answer appears to be that the student and her family didn't file a lawsuit on the subject until just recently. If...

    Why he left IFB

    Can't do that. As I've pointed out, there are over 9,000 churches that identify themselves as IFB. Even if we decide to say "a lot," what number or percentage of that >9,000 does "a lot" signify? And then how do we go about verifying that percentage or number? If I agree to use the people who...

    Texas student punished for refusing to recite Mexican pledge

    As I searched around about this, I found that this story first appeared back in 2011; wonder why Fox and WND are reporting on it now?

    Whitehouse threatens Woodward

    Actually, he could -- but in doing so, he'll have to compare Obama and his administration to some ugly past figures, some of them Republicans...and we wouldn't want to say that Obama is like a Republican, now would we?

    Whitehouse threatens Woodward

    Oh, please. You made the statement that a little research would show similar threats; you made the claim, so it's your responsibility to prove it. Then you use a statement publicly made to other countries; and executive orders and laws that are publicly well-known (and both of which I've...
