Roman Polanski should be extradited to the U.S. Yeah lets let someone off who drugged and raped a 13 year old girl because he directed a couple of good movies. What a bunch of phonies Hollywood and Liberals are, it is enough to make one sick.
Greed is the worst of the seven deadly sins. Look at how all of these corrupt politicians have destroyed this country.
Morality and religion absolutely should play a role in public policymaking. if it actually gets us honest politicians rather than the lying, corrupt, inefficient slimeballs we have now, then I am all for it.
Racial profiling by Henry Louis Gates, Jr. was a factor in his arrest. Gates is clearly the racist here. He jumped to a wrong conclusion based on his own racism and hatred. Crowley was doing his job.
The arrest of Henry Louis Gates, Jr. was justified. Of the two, Gates is the one who appears to be the racist. Funny you don't hear him demanding an apology or threatening to sue Crowley anymore.
Racial discrimination is no longer a significant problem in America. Please, the country elected an unqualified, inexperienced, corrupt black man, so how can you argue that discrimination is a problem?
President Obama's statement about Henry Louis Gates, Jr.'s arrest was not appropriate. An utter embarrassment. How can the President of the Unitied States make a judgement and public comment about something when he didn't even know the facts? He is sounding more like Al Sharpton or Rev. Wright than the President of the US.
The legal drinking age should be 18. If you can go to war and vote, you should be able to have a legal drink of alcohol.
The use of contraceptives is not immoral.
Religious compatibility is not an important component to a romantic relationship. My wife is Jewish and I am Catholic.
Carrie Prejean should not be stripped of her Miss California title. Why because she has the same stand on same-sex marriage as Obama? What a bunch of liberal hypocrites.
Political compatibility is an important component to a romantic relationship. Although James Carville and Mary Matalin could argue otherwise. I just think that no one else can stand to be around either of them for more than 5 minutes, so they found each other.
Carrie Prejean did lose the Miss USA 2009 competition for opposing same-sex marriage. It is funny she lost for having the same belief as Obama on same-sex marriage. How come Obama doesn't catch that kind of flak from Hollywood and Liberals? It must be nice to have a media that gives you a pass on everything.
Couples with kids are happier than those without. I can't speak for other couples but my life has changed for the better since my daughter was born.
Jesus Christ was a real-life person.
The United States should not issue a formal apology for slavery. I am not sure what the point is of apologizing for something done by people long dead to people who are long dead.
Drugs should be legalized. The war on drugs is a waste of time and money. Make drugs legal, look what happened after Prohibition was repealed.
Marijuana is not a gateway drug. Please, it is more of a gateway to food.
No-fault divorce should be available to couples.
The government should not mandate paid parental leave.
Homosexuals should be allowed to enter the clergy.
The 'War on Drugs' has not been effective in curbing illegal drug use.
Doubt can be part of faith.
There are no persuasive reasons to prohibit same-sex couples from raising children.
Local and state governments should not be able to use eminent domain to acquire and transfer properties that have public benefits for private uses.
Violence in movies contributes to violence in society.
People who hit their significant others once are likely to do so again. To take your anger to that level is not a one-time thing, same thing with people who hit their kids.
Drug sentencing laws in America are not fair.
The death penalty is not an effective crime deterrent.
Gay public figures do not have a responsibility to disclose their sexual orientation.
Homosexuality is not immoral.
The death penalty should not be available in cases of child rape. The death penalty is fundamentally unfair, it should not be used in any cases.
Marriage should not be defined as a union between one man and one woman.
Undocumented immigrants should not be granted in-state tuition benefits.
Marijuana for medicinal use should be legalized. It should be legal for any use.
Affirmative action is not necessary. It has not been needed for a while, but the election of Obama should be the final confirmation.
Consumption of alcohol is not immoral. please, lets not even go here.
There are no persuasive non-religious reasons to prohibit same-sex marriage. If same-sex couples want to marry, why should anyone else care?
African Americans should not receive reparations for slavery. If we were talking about the actual victims then the answer is clearly yes, but this is at least 7 or 8 generations later, if they are even descendants of actual slaves. The connection is way to tenuous and just open us up to more Government spending.
Prostitution should not be legal. I think the Government should stay out of most things, but this is one area where there are too many victims who are in it because of they are naive, tricked, on drugs, physically forced etc.
