Actually I did do the research for a college paper. I was taking the stance of Pro-Choice, but the data didn't bear out the position. The whole "poor minority woman" scenerio is pretty much a myth. As well as the "Rape/Incest" cases, these cases accounted for one in every ten thousand abortions...
Most of the time an abortion is last resort option of irresponsibilty.
The right to choose? Lets's see:
First of all, a woman CHOOSES have sex.
She CHOOSES under what condition she will have sex in, sober, drunk, high...
Then she CHOOSES who to have sex with, husband, boyfriend, one...
Exactly. This sort of thing happens when principles become flexible. This whole story is a "News" story, not "opinion", not "News Analysis", but a factual story. Their whole line of reasoning is "We believe this to be so, so it must be true"
After reading the article, I was struck by the similarity to my grandfather. He was a cranky and negative man, and some may say he had his reasons. Many times he would be dismissive and downright mean in his words. But it took a while to warm up to him and then he MIGHT say something positive...
And don't confuse rationalization with good journalism.
It doesn't matter if the government has stated any interrogation techniques were not being used. It doesn't mater if menstrual blood was used. That doesn't give Newswwek the moral right to print a false story.

This is just more obfuscation, pure and simple. Bush didn't do anything to a Quran, WMD had nothing to do with this, nor intelligence reports. This was a magazine who printed a wrong story, whether intentional or not, and didn't get the facts right. Either way, it was incompetence, or them...
Newsweek, CBS' Dan Rathers' lies, questionable experts....it all points to the failings of the Media to get to the truth with accurate reporting. Whether it was done intentionally or not. The Media has failed us time and time again. The Media is longer "Keepers of the Truth", they have just...
Post Cereals had to remove Alphabits from store shelves because they were sued by the left wing ACLU. Someone found the word "GOD" in their breakfast bowl during a congressional hearing....*w
Well it does matter what the bastard was thinking, else we wouldn't have hate crimes. Whats the difference between a "hate" crime and a similar crime? You can have two identical crimes, yet one will be prosecuted as a hate crime for what an attacker can say (an outward expression of his...
First off, you are agruing from a very weak position. The article you post is, essentially, a editorial. The author evens states " as I will argue,...".
Second, you have to take his points with a grain of salt because he is trying to convince the reader his point of view is the correct one...
Sure, 99% will suffice, as will as 98%, 97%, etc...As long as it's beyond reasonable doubt, in which our court system is built upon. Percentage is irrelevant.
Well I think you are wise to realize that maybe it went a little too far than it should have and you let your emotions get a bit of a hold of you. At least you can reflect this and learn from it. I know in the heat of even a verbal conflict that things can escalate real quick. On one hand I love...
I'm a bit confused. Are these rules for the horror stories forum? or all of the forums? or are they for political discussions? If thats the case I would also suggest the sources be from reliable and un-biased sources. JMO
Just someone with a very elaborate imagination. Since I worked in the aerospace industry for a number of years, much of what he writes was either found in the industry magazines, or some of the more typical Sci-fi magazines. I can tell you this, some of the weapons are we are now developing...
One of the problems I have seen occur is when someone knows who you are, they can do damage to your life. For example, in one chat room I was in, there was a feud going on between two groups of people. For whatever reason, one person found out one of the other persons real name. Located where...
