Gee, just imagine how that would have been interpreted if Romney had said it. Lower expectations for black kids anyone?
The Founding Fathers established the first Dept. of Homeland Security. They called it "a Well Regulated Militia."

You're assuming he was talking about blacks and maybe it wasn't meant in the racist way you took it. Maybe he meant that teachers should not just pass kids and do some real teachings. Because I have seen some really hurting white kids. Are you for Head start. kentay

I'll bet Ted is the kind of Christian that doesn't approve of murdering babies. And I'm sure that he's in agreement with Jesus on that one.

I'm the kind of Christian that believes that it is my obligation to give of *myself* to those who cannot care for themselves.  I don't believe it is my obligation to threaten my neighbor with imprisonment if he doesn't hand his property over to somebody of my choosing.

Are you the kind of Christian who judges other people's religiosity based on whether you agree with their political views?

No I don't,  I only evaluate a person based on what they tell me or try to pass themselves as. I am a Christian man who follows the Teaching of Christ as expressed by him in the New Testament.  I am no longer bond by the old Testament laws because of the death and resurrection of Christ changed all of that and we now are under grace not the Laws of the old Testament.  I try to the best of my ability to have the kind of heart he say he wants me to have. I fail,  but I never stop trying to live and speak according to Christ teachings. So if you tell me you're a Christian and you post differently from Christ teaching I ask why.  kentay

Kentay, you understand that there is a world of difference between you giving your own money to charity and forcing others to give their money to your charity, right?  This is a very important difference to understand.

Yes I do Ted and as much as I try or religion tries they can never do as much as a united gift and help from our federal Government does.  That's why we call ourselves The United States of America, what affect one could affect all because we do so much, much more than any singular group could ever do.  kentay

What If Obama Loses? Have you thought about the consequences of a GOP victory? They would stacking the Supreme Court, with Roberts, Thomas, Scalia, Alito clones that would move the country to the far right for the next 40 years at least. It would have the potential to bring on another civil war type revolution. kentay
