I wonder if any journalists have been fired for saying that people with rosaries who wear crucifixes scare them. I also tend to wonder if any Muslim people have been punished by any state government for specifically requesting a Muslim roommate. The other day I was wondering if any state official is pushing legislation stating that any threats against Christians or mockery of Christian symbols, images, or Sacred Persons should be considered hate speech worthy of heavy fines or jail time.

Anyone feeling anguish about the present course of this country should not lose hope. Certainly the present polls showing the growing disfavor against the Left led by Obama, Pelosi, and their ilk should bring some measure of confidence and hope among conservatives. Clearly, anyone listening to liberal empty heads like Boxer, Reid, and Pelosi should gain a measure of hope that sensible Americans ears to hear, eyes to see, a brain to think, and one hand to pull a voting lever will stop this rampant hypocrisy, pandemic absurdity, and widespread corruption that calls itself the Democratic Party.

"Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences, a possibility I abhor less or discount less than my colleague Judge (Miriam) Cedarbaum, our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging. Justice (Sandra Day) O'Connor has often been cited as saying that a wise old man and wise old woman will reach the same conclusion in deciding cases. I am … not so sure that I agree with the statement… I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."
