I Am a Liberal Airhead

Try this Authoritarian Personality test. Is it wrong to LIKE being an airhead? LOL

Why universal health care is MORAL

An excellent article on single-payer health care. The provision of health care for everyone is as much a right as education. There are many ways to implement universal health care, but I believe the single-payer method to be the least costly and most effective.

Street Prophets' Interview With Barack Obama

This is my third post on the Obama speech to the Spiritual Renewal Conference:

First Article: Text of Speech
Second Article: Clarification

I hope this clears up the misunderstandings, but I doubt it. I welcome the chance to read more about Senator Obama's vision for the religious left.

Religious Left is Coming Alive

Maybe we won't have hate, but will anger applied in love do? Maybe it'll be easier to get behind the issues of those who don't cast stones to be divisive, but apply reason to persuade instead. Anyway, what will people choose when offered a choice between hatred and love?

"It seems to me that we've seen enough evidence over the years that the capitalist system is not going to be destroyed by an outside challenger like communism -- it will be destroyed by its own internal greed."

This is shameful. What would happen if we let ALL the people speak, rather than just the rich and the powerful?
