    Hojat-al-Islam means "proof of Islam" in English, however in contemporary Iran, under the rule of the mullahs, it means "proof of ignorance." This is a very sad incident to read about when you consider that things weren't always this way in Iran.

  • Love for Limbaugh?

    [Read the article: Thank you, Rush Limbaugh!]

    The high priest of hate who created the term "Feminazi?" I guess this is an instance where the enemy (Limbaugh) of your enemy (Obama) is your friend.

    I think Wright was right on quite a few scores myself, the problem is he didn't use some of the most flowery language to make his points more savory to, more insulated segments of society. To me "Goddam America" means "goddamn America how could you not see what was coming?" And it's clear, plenty of people couldn't and wouldn't. They were too pleased, pacified, and purified in their own sense of blind pride. As a preacher, Wreight properly understands and expressed it in powerful language, that pride always preceeds the fall. As a catholic I can get my head around that idea, and agree with it.

    Rock on! I don't know much about liberation theory, but untold numbers of Americans need to free their minds, and I believe that Obama can contribute much to that life affirming pursuit, one which I support all the way.

    Your analysis of Obama was just about as much on target as those mythical snipers that Hillary had to dodge in Bosnia.
