According to the US Government Accountability Office, there are 1,138 provisions in which marital status is a factor in determining benefits, rights, and privileges. These statistics don't even include the provisions in non-government matters, such as insurance agencies. I once thought of homosexuality as a sin. I have since seen the issue through the eyes of reason, rather than what the church

There is definitely something to be said about growing up and knowing who you are and what you stand for. As a child of Generation X, I grew up with knowledge of only what my parents, my teachers, the TV, and the newspaper told me. It wasn’t until the mid-90s came along and blasted us all with the internet. In addition, talk radio has become commonplace, outside of Gospel radio. I have really

I am not sure if it is the fault of the moronic politicians, or the economically stupid sheep of this country. Have you seen the Congressional hearings about the oil profits lately? I think that most elected officials in the Senate know how stupid all of this is, but they are massive demagogues to their constituents. There is currently a bill in the House and Senate called the Windfall Profits

From: The Federalist Patriot (FederalistPatriot.US)What on earth has happened to Republicans in Washington? Twenty years ago, we conservatives could only dream of an opportunity like the one our elected representatives are now squandering: a Republican President with majorities in both houses of Congress, and two chances to nominate constitutionalists to the Supreme Court. For reasons we can't

It is amazing to me how tragic this debacle is, especially in our Country. One person put it like this: "Jesus will be here before the National Guard will." You know what is really sad (possibly great, though) is that he just may be correct. Things are changing. People are willing to help, but nothing is being done. I just wish I could get in a helicopter myself and drop off a few thousand tons

By: Neal Boortz, Liberterian Talk Show HostRock the Vote is an MTV promotion. Yesterday Rock the Vote gave an award to Bill Clinton. A "lifetime achievement" award. The award was meant to "honor an individual who has always made reaching out to people and appealing to their values a primary part of his efforts to make the world a better place." Clinton appealed to the values of young people!

Dear Sirs:It was with great pleasure that I read Paul Gessing's article The Environmental Benefits of the FairTax on freeliberal.com. Far too many on the left reject off-hand any proposal that originated with a Republican such as John Linder's (R-GA) HR 25, the NRST, or as some call it the FairTax. This reform is truly non-partisan, recognizing that all Americans pay taxes and treating all

Government Headed Toward 50% Control of Our Economyby Stephen MoorePosted May 6, 2005Last week the House and Senate agreed on a $2.6-trillion budget for fiscal year 2006. There was much chest-thumping about the fiscal restraint imbedded in this budget blueprint--which was mystifying since federal outlays will grow by well over $100 billion in 2006 when the cost of the War in Iraq is added to the

"The rhetoric of class warfare is as old as dirt. Even Pharaoh kept the slaves fighting among themselves to extend their captivity. But there is nothing classy about stirring people's jealousy and envy, making people feel as if the world owes them something, or bashing people who take risks to create jobs and help drive our economy. It is classless exploitation to appeal to a person's weakness of

By David BoazIf conservatives don't want federalism any more, will liberals pick up the banner? Federalism has always been a key element of American conservatism. In his 1960 manifesto, The Conscience of a Conservative, Barry Goldwater called for the federal government to "withdraw promptly and totally from every jurisdiction which the Constitution reserves to the states."Ronald Reagan ran for

What is wrong with this place? Socialism has crept into even our local municipalities. For those of you who are not aware, let me give some brief background on what I’m about to rant about. The city of Atlanta has a large suburban area surrounding the city, especially in the very large elongated county of Fulton, which Atlanta is part of, in the center. An area known as Sandy Springs sits

Sandy Berger was Clinton's National Security Advisor so he knows better than to steal documents from the National Archives. During Clinton's first term, he served as Deputy Assistant to the President in National Security Affairs. This guy knows his way around the block in Washington. Blindfolded.So will you please tell me why this Doctor of Jurisprudence from Harvard Law "accidentally" walked out
