That would be a silly assumption, considering the current crop of whacky cult members pretending to be candidates.

Or, you could go with Rick Perry, the Dominionist who just accepted millions in federal funds for rail development in Texas.

i agree with his move...as an aside, i am not sure why taking federqal dollars has become anathema. the fed should never have become the clearinghouse for our money, taking in billions and then 'bestowing its largesse'. its our money, not the feds money.

So about the same number of additional people die or would die as cirrhosis of the liver - why are we not banning alcohol?

It becomes an anathema - rather, blatant hypocrisy - when the person - in this instance, Rick Perry - publicly says it is an anathema to his supporters, over and over, making that a campaign stand and making it the very subject of his most recent book, "Fed Up!", and a heavy dose in his previous book.

But then he takes that money. For high-speed rail. Or to balance his repeatedly overdrawn budget (while he credits his own self for that and campaigns upon it)

And it is "the feds" money, because our Constitution gives us the power to collect taxes for our common good. "Largesse" is a strange choice of words. We live in a cooperative society, that we agree to all contribute towards financially. It is one of the major differences between the articles we had before the Constitution, and what they fine-tuned the Constitution to include.

I don't know that you valued our opinion? My opinion is that Obama wants to win the election. It isn't like the guy is on the wrong side of an issue 100% of the time...

Chuck, Ship's Cabin just came back and raced at Arlington Thursday - I think first race? Didn't do anything, but looked good
