Yes, certainly more than the unjust schools.

Let the just schools, regardless of what the unjust schools of whatever religious denomination say... let the just schools make the decisions, and let the chips fall where they may.

It seems to me when Bush inferred outrage at the Saudi sentence of this woman would be speaking out as well of Jamie Leigh Jones and The Haliburton(KBR) rape, which they destroyed all evidence except the medical witnesses, Darth Vader is keeping him mum on the subject I guess. If you think the Saudi government was outrageous what about our government Mr. Bush and Congress where are you on this issue?

Why should I believe an author who''s religion denies Jesus Christ as the Son of God?

Talk about being silly...

I hear you.

Of course my statement that "Hagar [Haggar] Slacks" represent a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy, was intended as a joke.

(I have to keep in shape until the strike is over, and Conan O"Brien ttakes me back.)

One of the silliest historical misstatements was this:

"In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world... And everyone went to his own town to register."

There is absolutely no historical evidence that the Romans required everybody to return "to his own town" to "register" for any supposed census.

But people just sit in church and nod their heads every time this silly story in recited each Christmas.

Do you think the U.S. could protect her? I doubt it.
