NOT A MISPRINT: OBAMA SEEKS CUTS OF 100 <em>MILLION</em> TO CURB DEFICIT
jharp said - Why not find something worthwhile to whine about? Like his position on warrantless wiretaps.
Do you even know what a wiretap is? As opposed to a pen register or a trap and trace?
I presume you do not but in the off chance that you do, when and where was anyone ever accused of "warrantless wiretapping" except by demagogues and media shills?
You purport to have knowledge of a classified program that no one else has?

THE CONSERVATIVE CASE FOR GAY MARRIAGE
Rick (or whoever wrote the lead article) - One issue this does raise is a true and proper taxonomy for regular Joe conservatives versus alleged and self-professed "social conservatives".
When "social conservatives" protest gay marriage on religious grounds (e.g. "God hates it") then that is "religious conservatism" and not "social conservatism."
The true "social conservative" (aka Joe normal unhyphenated conservative) has a radically different problem, which is simply that no society in recorded human history has ever sanctioned homosexual marriage. Not last year, not last century, not last millenia, and not in Rome or Angkor Wat or Thebes or the Zulu Nation. Never. Ever.
So by what authority (the true and not the fake social conservative asks) does some petty nitwit judge in the Commonwealth Of Massachusetts (and now other misguided states) have to initiate this bizarre aberration in human civilization? By what right or precedent?
Note that this question hasn't the slightest speck of religionism in it. It's a true social conservative issue, and the only one that should be used (unless one happens to be of the Religionist Party).
