>> Bush was no president. He was a puppet of Cheney's. Okay, Cheney saved more lives than any American president in history. African lives. I'm sure you'll give him full credit for that. >> he will garner the same respect you have given this president. NONE! People don't "garner respect" by virtue of existing. They have to earn it. Right now, I'm having a very difficult time seeing how Obama is any more qualified than Chauncey Gardner.

India goes 'back to the Dark Ages' by banning gay sex — again ....... But it seems unlikely the government will risk taking a stand on the issue in the short term. General elections are coming up in May in largely socially conservative India, and the Hindu nationalist opposition is already gathering momentum. The 2009 ruling to exempt gay sex between consenting adults from the ban was the result of a case brought by the Naz Foundation, an Indian sexual rights organization, which fought a legal battle for almost a decade. After the Delhi High Court ruling in its favor, a collective of mostly faith-based groups took an appeal to the Supreme Court. "All the major communities of the country -- the Hindus, the Christians and the Muslims -- had appealed against the ruling of the Delhi High Court," a lawyer for a Muslim charity told reporters. "They had said that this unnatural sex is not permissible in all the religions of the world." .......... worldnews.nbcnews.com No mention of Buddhism, but it frowns on it too. In response to a question, the Dalai Lama once said it was perfectly okay to be gay ..... as long as you didn't have sex.
