as a "slam" against Obama -- I'm still supporting him. There are about 16,000 people on MyBO (most of them long-time Obama supporters) who are upset, too. And I admitted I was disappointed in Hillary's position on faith-based initiatives. I also said I couldn't be sure what she'd be doing right now, if she'd become the nominee. I was very critical of Obama, but I think legitimate criticism is a healthy thing. His FISA stance will not diminish my support.
I too an just as critical of Hillary's position on faith based initiatives. I think it is wrong to give tax dollars to institutions that aren't taxed themselves.
Not a pleasant thing, if you ask me.
Should we not give tax dollars and grants to private universities for clinical research?
Should we not publicly fund institutions like cancer societies, HIV/AIDS relief organizations and food banks/homeless shelters?
All these organizations don't receive tax money but many do obtain public funding....
No disrespect intended sricki...Many things people on this site raise as concerns are well-founded and deserve to be talked about. I hope it can be done civilly and with an open-mind that's all...Oh and it would be nice to see us going after McCain and his positions as well.
but tomorrow or Sunday I'll be writing a very positive pro-Obama diary. All my venting has made me feel much better. Certainly more optimistic.
Sorry if you took offense. Absolutely none was intended toward you:)
