Private Contractors Overcharge in Iraq

How will Iraqis learn the finer points of capitalism if American businessmen don't show them?

Never Enough

Manager: You sent for me, sir?
CEO: Sit down. Your budget is way to high. Every year you ask for more. You seem to want every last dollar this company has. You'll have to learn to do more with less. If you can't find a way, I'll have someone else do it. Do you understand?
Manager: Yes sir.
CEO: Good. Now get out. I have a meeting with those environmental nuts. They just can't understand how badly we need to develop those last 6 acres of the estuary.

We need a program to convince people that it's their patriotic duty to drink poisoned water for the good of the economy. Since there could be long term health consequences, we also need to ask congress to protect insurers by exempting them from paying for "self-inflicted" illnesses.

God on our side

Let us make god in our own image. Let us give him our intolerance that he will hate all those whom we hate. Let us give him our ignorance that he will fear everything that we fear.

Religious Fundamentalism

What message would you like to send to Iraqi insurgents about the appropriate relationship between religion and government?

Intelligent Design and Evolution

If "intelligent design" gets equal time with evolution, should proponents of evolution have an equal opportunity to point out all the flaws in "intelligent design"?

War on Terror

How will you know when the "global war on terror" is over?

Since the terrorists attack us because they hate freedom, if we voluntarily give up our freedom will the terrorists stop their attacks and maybe even love us?

Defense of Marriage

Instead of a law prohibiting marriage between certain people, why not really defend marriage by banning divorce and mandating substantial penalties for adultery?

What are the most significant changes you've noticed in your own marriage since the first same-sex couple got married?
