I've looked fairly, extensively at his record and as I pointed out on my post the only issues I majorly seem to disagree with him on are his past support for McCain/Feingold which he has seemed to change a little on and his support for National Endowment for the Arts. <BR/><BR/>Otherwise, he appears to be a fairly stellar conservative, especially compared to the other supposed top 3 candidates.<BR/><BR/>I am in no way naive enough to view him as another Reagan but I'm finally optimistic that we might have someone to vote for in 2008 instead of just going out to vote against Hillary Clinton.Dionnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05013166054883351020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12507451.post-48754882820508929552007-06-17T02:29:00.000-04:002007-06-17T02:29:00.000-04:00It's always amusing when a Mudkitty tries to use t...It's always amusing when a Mudkitty tries to use the Bible against believers. Having just partaken of a great theological debate spanning three different blogs, her comments are even more amusing. The Levitical punishments for sins described there no longer apply, Muddy.

Good grief. <BR/><BR/>*Think* about what you are saying. If a critic is always guilty of what he criticizes others for, then those who criticize others of, let us say, racism, would actually be the racists. If you reject this, then you must reject that criticism of homosexuality implies the critics are necessarily homosexuals.<BR/><BR/>Most of the prescriptions in Leviticus are ridiculous, but note Freud's theories are on a much higher dimension of stupid. Do you really believe, to take an example, that <B>toddlers</B> go through stages of psychosexual development? Maybe your liberal friends take Freud seriously, but I doubt anyone here does.jhbowdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12377271992125388319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12507451.post-65952276058211187222007-06-16T13:14:00.000-04:002007-06-16T13:14:00.000-04:00Only someone who places a negative value on homose...Only someone who places a negative value on homosexuality, as you do, would object to a republican homosexual reference. As for "manliness" that is something republicans are soooo gay about, and they don't even realize it. Republican man-crushes - they are so cute. Define manliness, macho men. <BR/><BR/>The thing is, the remaining vestiges of homo-antipathy comes from a lot of latent homo repression. Relax, repugs. <BR/><BR/>As for the religious leanings - if your objections to homosexuality is biblical, then you ARE/HAVE TO BE for the execution of gays, as dictated to us, by the bible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12507451.post-75862234710880959592007-06-15T23:39:00.000-04:002007-06-15T23:39:00.000-04:00mudkitty--Since you are not implying that Republic...mudkitty--<BR/><BR/>Since you are not implying that Republicans value manliness, you are implying that Republicans are gay.
