obumble is using a social security number issued by the State of Connecticut, but he never lived there, and they only issue those numbers to residents of that State, so how come he has that number? Is he guilty of identity fraud? He refuses to answer the question... "There is obviously a case of fraud going on here," Daniels maintained. "In 15 years of having a private investigator's license in Ohio, I've never seen the Social Security Administration make a mistake of issuing a Connecticut Social Security number to a person who lived in Hawaii. There is no family connection that would appear to explain the anomaly." The question is being raised amid speculation about the president's history fueled by an extraordinary lack of public documentation. Along with his original birth certificate, Obama also has not released educational records, scholarly articles, passport documents, medical records, papers from his service in the Illinois state Senate, Illinois State Bar Association records, any baptism records and adoption papers. wnd.com

I'm not sure what the point of your comment was, it certainly was an odd tangent from the post I submitted. It only makes sense as another excuse to snipe at people who profess a commitment to moral principle. I've never understood why you guys find that objectionable, unless you find the contrast to embarrassing to live with, so you just feel bound to act out all the time. I don't have any problem with gays, even closet gays. In addition, I don't know what your problem is with this preacher. "Both men reportedly denied having sex on the trip." He hired a guy to help him carry stuff after surgery and the guy was gay, so what? It's a fact that no one likes hypocrisy but finding a hypocrite in the crowd is not a reflection on the crowd at all. Your attempt here to find such a hypocrite if flawed but your inference that it would be a reflection on the crowd you call moralists, is flawed logic and obviously more about you than those you are attempting to point your finger at.

What an embarrassment the current political climate has created.......the guy is afraid to stand up for what's right. DISTANCING ONE'S SELF FROM ACCURATE BELIEFS.... We talked yesterday about Bradley Byrne, a leading GOP gubernatorial candidate in Alabama, who's been targeted this week with a new attack ad. The commercial blasts Byrne for having supported "teaching evolution" in schools because it "best explains the origin of life." The same ad criticizes him saying that he believes "there are parts of the Bible that are meant to be literally true and parts that are not." In one of the saddest walk-backs in recent history, Byrne has distanced himself from his stated beliefs -- which, by the way, needn't be controversial -- issuing a statement in support of creationism and Biblical literalism. "I believe the Bible is the Word of God and that every single word of it is true. From the earliest parts of this campaign, a paraphrased and incomplete parsing of my words have been knowingly used to insinuate that I believe something different than that. My faith is at the center of my life and my belief in Jesus Christ as my personal savior and Lord guides my every action. "As a Christian and as a public servant, I have never wavered in my belief that this world and everything in it is a masterpiece created by the hands of God. As a member of the Alabama Board of Education, the record clearly shows that I fought to ensure the teaching of creationism in our school text books." Just so we're clear, Byrne said modern biology "best explains the origin of life," and now he's having to quickly move in the opposite direction. Under sane circumstances, Byrne could respond to this attack ad by saying, "Of course I accept modern biology. Doesn't everyone?" But this is Alabama and Byrne is in a Republican primary. I can't wait for future press releases in which Byrne feels forced to say the sun revolves around the Earth; electromagnetism is "only a theory"; and the value of pi is exactly three.
