You Can't Say You Love Your Country

My Only Enemy Is Right-wing Religious Fundamentalism.

When We Got Organized As A Country And We Wrote A Fairly Radical Constitution With A Radical Bill Of Rights, Giving A Radical Amount Of Individual Freedom To Americans, It Was Assumed That The Americans Who Had That Freedom Would Use It Responsibly.

If You Think The President Was Right To Open The Doors Of American Opportunity To Young Immigrants Brought Here As Children Who Want To Go To College Or Serve In The Military, You Should Vote For Barack Obama.

It Appears That Some School Officials, Teachers, And Parents Have Assumed That Religious Expression Of Any Type Is Either Inappropriate Or Forbidden Altogether In Public Schools; However, Nothing In The First Amendment Converts Our Public Schools Into Religion-free Zones.

We Know There Are Billions Of Stars And Planets Literally Out There, And The Universe Is Getting Bigger. We Know From Our Fancy Telescopes That Just In The Last Two Years More Than 20 Planets Have Been Identified Outside Our Solar System That Seem To Be Far Enough Away From Their Suns - - And Dense Enough - - That They Might Be Able To Support Some Form Of Life. So It Makes It Increasing Less Likely That We're Alone. But If We Were Visited Someday, I Wouldn't Be Surprised.
