Now you say this! <<<Actually, I never quoted you as saying "supports">>> Well, this is what you said, exactly, in your post 15024. The entirety of that post is pasted here: <<<It gives an idea of the sort of "social policy" Olasky supports, which you made an issue.......>>> So, Neocon, your position on whether you "quoted" me or not depends on... what the word "quote" means.... I can't make it any clearer than I have. My question has been not about what Olasky "supports." I'll say it again. I have never raised a single question, aside from my glancing reference to his advice re the practice of Christian journalism, about "what Olasky SUPPORTS." My actual question has been written and rewritten here. It relates, this may ring a bell, to the puzzling notion of Biblical inerrancy as a prospective base for formulating national policy, domestic or foreign. I'm tired of repeating myself. This is jejune. Perhaps you would like to produce a rationale for Biblical Inerrancy as, for example, a foreign policy tool.

Also interesting, and little noticed in the press, is the increasing strength of House Republicans. For a year it has been taken as gospel that Republicans will lose their House majority this November, and certainly that is still possible. But in nine polls that asked voters which party's candidate for House they would vote for, Republicans trailed Democrats by only 43 percent to 42 percent. By contrast, they trailed 42 percent to 37 percent in 21 polls in 1998 and by 43 percent to 39 percent in 25 polls in 1996, and ended up winning more seats and winning the popular vote narrowly both times. Republicans show more strength in these "generic ballot" polls than at any time since the 1995-96 budget showdown; if that continues, and if the generic numbers continue to underpredict Republican performance, Republicans stand to gain seats this cycle. http://www.jewishworldreview.com/michael/barone.html
