Letter: Unfair criticism
βThe God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.β

Unwed births leading cause of poverty, panel told
Excuse me, Mr RC1977, but the highest birth rate is among drop outs, not those who took advantage of the public education system and earned a diploma. .

Task force told out-of-wedlock births to blame for child poverty
So who marries whom? As I posted in the other thread, having numerous children with several baby-mamas means Brownback will have to legalize polygamy. It is a status symbol "on the streets" to have multiple baby-mamas.

Unwed births leading cause of poverty, panel told
It's obvious these task force members have never actually worked with the at-risk youth who are contributing disproportionately to the next generation.
If they want to encourage marriage, then they'll have to legalize polygamy--particulary polygyny. In the past year, I have worked with several high school dropouts who have fathered children with multiple women. It is a status symbol "on the streets" to have multiple baby-mamas.
Wake up and face reality, Brownback! Go after the baby-daddies who think it's cool to impregnate as many women as possible. It might be difficult to do because, often times, their names never make it on the birth certificates.

Letter: Tax benefits
Joe Douglas is an MD (medical doctor). He is unpretentious and obviously doesn't need to advertise it. So, SOP, maybe you shouldn't be so quick to judge people you don't know.

Simons' Saturday Column: Commentators spur concerns about upcoming vote
Ha ha ha! President Obama is a much more talented speaker and orator than Willard! Can't wait to watch Willard blow it AGAIN! Or maybe he'll whine like Ann..."This is soooo hard!"

Embattled Missouri congressman Todd Akin renews vow to stay in Senate race
Yeah, and he was really right-on about how a woman's body will reject the rapist's sperm! What an upstanding, intelligent guy. Go Todd! Stay in the race!

Fetal rights
Another man after control of women's bodies. Question, Mr Wentz: how many unwanted, abused, or neglected children have you adopted? Or are you uninterested after the child is born?

Moving speech
Hate to burst your self-righteous bubble, rtwngr, but our closest relatives, the bonobos--they may be closer to us than chimpanzees-- practice homosexual sex. They do it just for fun too! Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZiTzx...
