I can say that the majority of adult women that I know were offended by Palin’s blase view that since she was a woman, all the soccer mommies of America would vote for her. That is untrue. If she believes she is a whole-hearted good christian woman, than I declare that I invented the internet and chocolate milk. Both her and I just told a fib.

Macro evolution is merely the overarching sum (that we can observe) of all micro evolution, so saying that micro evolution, which I assume you intend to mean evolution within a species, is the only type of evolution possible is absolute (pardon) bullshit. Just because you haven’t lived long enough to observe total speciation and refuse to look at transitional examples doesn’t mean that you’re right.

I would like to point out that you are now seriously suggesting it is okay to ban books because you don’t agree with what ideas occur within them. I don’t agree with Feng Shui. Nor do a good many people. Say our argument is that something like this, dealt with in a serious manner in a book, could fundamentally alter our child’s perceptions, skew their ability to tell truth from falsehood.
Does that mean we could get together and have the book removed, so that our child will never be exposed to it, ever?
And, of course, this is all because we disagree with the idea.

Why is everyone who isn’t staunchly republican automatically called a liberal?

Oh right, I forgot, all issues are black & white with no gray! And surely people’s opinions always fall to party lines, with no variation or…thought.

I used to say “I am Irish” all the time when I was younger but then I was sent to school over there (my republican parents despaired of ever making me relinquish my liberal ways) and I was quickly disabused of the notion that I was in fact Irish.
I love Ireland though and had a great time for 4 years of high school (imagine, it was supposed to be a punishment) and I credit Ireland with making me even more liberal that when I got there.
There is a lot of activism and social conscience even among the school kids that is pretty rare here.

No, not fair is fair. The separation of Church and State was placed by our forefathers for a reason. If any religion is going to be taught in schools, than all of them should be. If you’re going to leave out Christianity because it is the most popular argument against macro-evolution, than leave the rest out.

I’d also like to point out that it is MACRO-evolution that Christians fight. Man did not come from apes. If we had, there would be no apes left. Think people… Think. We cannot deny that micro-evolution happens. Cheetahs are running faster and their spots are changing to stripes. They are evolving little by little(micro) to contend with their ever evolving prey.

The fight is not Creationism vs. Evolution. It’s Creationism vs. The Big Bang… I really wish you people would pay more attention. I hate that I’m a high school student with a little broader view on these subjects I look up on my own.

I think a judge might say that the most harm would be to the marjority in this case that wanted the book removed when it would be an easy thing for the minority to just have a copy in the home available to their children if they wanted it. IMHO. Probably a really unlikely case though…

That is a valid point. But the one parent who wants the ‘undesirable’ book to be available also pays taxes. The idea behind our democracy is majority rule with minority rights. Just because most people disagree with you, doesn’t mean your opinion doesn’t matter.

I pretty much gotta agree with Kaitlin here, it’s just Macros, but unlike loldogs and lolcats, I actually come here for the comments because well, you guys are alot funnier than the pictures. Every bush pic that comes up has republicans crying all “WHY DONT THEY DO THAT TO OBAMA CONSPIRACY!” and then a libtard retorts “8 YEARS DOWN THE DRAIN!”, then somebody has to scream “SHOW ME SOME DAMN SOURCES OR YOU’RE A LIAR!” Seriously it seems everyone knows who theyre voting here already and debating this shit on a macros site makes you all look incredibly stupid. That being said, DONT EVER STOP. I love watching the fake outrage.

I wonder why the well-known advocate of womens’ affairs, Oprah Winfrey, won’t have Palin on her show until after the election? I think she’s afraid that Palin will look so good that it will swing women voters further in her direction.

We did not create all the bad guys, for crying out loud. There have been bad people and bad civilizations since before our country even began and there probably always will be. We may have made some people mad but we have made for more people happy. The good our country has done in the world far out weighs any bad.

Well, if there never was a list, then I doubt she ever seriously intended to ban any books, don’t you? If she did intend to ban books, there probably would be some books she was interested in banning… but no one seems to know what those books are! I think it is more likely she was trying to assess the loyalty of this person like others have said before.

Hi Kurt! If the majority of local people object to a certain book in a school library don’t you think they should be able to ask the book be removed? Especially if their tax dollars go to fund the school? That is what I was saying there.

But one local person shouldn’t have say over what is available for someone elses child. Parents should be the only ones controlling what their child is allowed to read.

Well, I don’t know if there ever was a formal definition of anything called a “Bush Doctrine”. He was just trying to confuse her. Can you imagine the name he could make for himself to the be one that tripped up Sarah Palin? They are all climbing over each other to trip her up, Wasilla is full of reporters from what I understand trying to find dirt on her, and they are getting pretty frustrated cause nothing is turning up. Is there some sort of rule that she needs to run out and give interviews the next day? It’s only been a week and she leaves a pretty clear record of who she is by her actions as governor of Alaska.

You’re not the only one who’s seeing this Nexus. I’m just waiting for more gas riots. Maybe next time though they’ll do it at the oil company’s corporate hq. Maybe drag an obscenely wealthy oil executive out in the streets.
BTW, Did anyone else have their gas prices jump about a dollar a gallon overnight a few days ago? Because it did hear. 4.60 a gallon now.

The general consensus that I heard today was that Charlie Gibson went a little easy on her. Now, the opinion on how well she did is divided depending on your viewpoint. From what I saw (and I didn’t see all of it) she didn’t seem to know what the Bush Doctrine was and saying you might declare war on Russia is crazy, you don’t declare war on a country whose nuclear power matches your own.
-
Most candidates give their first interview within days of announcing their candidacy, Sarah Palin actually waited a lot longer than is the norm. And if she can’t handle a reporter pressing her on an issue, even if she thinks it’s stupid, then maybe she shouldn’t be in this race.

She is actually asking for prayers so that the people overseeing the war are doing so according to God’s plan, and that if they are not doing something according to His plan, that He will make it clear. She said “Pray for our…country, that our leaders…are sending [US soldiers] out on a task from God. …that there is a plan and that that plan is God’s plan.”

Just as McCain/Palin’s greatest strength are interviewers that don’t bother to ask them to answer the damn question.

One fairly mild interview just makes my point – by now there should have been half a dozen if they weren’t worried. And there are no more scheduled, either. Frankly, I don’t blame them – she’s too outspoken. Actually, I could almost like her for that, and it’s a shame they won’t let her speak more.

And if that was your idea of ‘grilled unmercifully’, then you are either biased or out of touch with what real reporting is like.

My credibility almost ran over your what? If you can’t say anything of substance, as least you could try to type it well.

Oh, and be the way – insult fail. I can back up my statement.

The Center for Media and Public Affairs, a nonpartisan research organization, did a study that showed that the tv network evening news shows were giving Obama more negative coverage than McCain. Specifically, “Since the primaries ended, on-air evaluations of Barack Obama have been 72% negative (vs. 28% positive). That’s worse than John McCain’s coverage, which has been 57% negative (vs. 43% positive) during the same time period.”

Any yet people like you continue to accuse the media of ‘liberal bias’, despite all the evidence. As MSNBC’s recent shakeup removing Olbermann and Matthews shows, any bias in the media is in favor of the right, not the left.

So what have you got that’s of substance? Nothing, I expect, your kind of hit-and-run ‘insult’ specialist rarely does.
