…as crucified by the Jews,” back in 2001, nevertheless had an extraordinary list of accomplishments: He “started out as a newspaper and radio reporter, then worked as an aide to Colorado’s Republican senator, Gordon Allott, before plunging into politics,” James Ridgeway and Alicia Ng wrote of his background in a September 2006 interview with Weyrich that focused on his opposition to The Patriot Act. “He set up the Heritage Foundation by persuading…

…i and then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. According to the client list on its web site, Eleison Group has also represented FPL.* Secular pro-choice groups have expressed shock that Stupak’s amendment made it in at the last minute. But to Butler, it was no surprise. “We saw the problem coming,” she told RD. “Capps wasn’t working as a compromise.” Stupak and his group of 40 “felt dissed,” said Butler, but because FPL doesn’t lobby on the Hi…

By Miguel A. De La Torre

…being presente. Not wanting Perez-Villanueva or Sacaria-Goday to join the list of what the Border Patrol considers “collateral damage,” he brought them to “the Barn,” a small building in Ajo, Arizona, used by No More Deaths, to provide them with food, water, beds, and clean clothes. This is where he was arrested on April 17, 2018, and charged with two felony counts. I too am guilty of the same “crime” Warren committed, for I, along with thousands…

Jeremiah Wright for President?

By Ira Chernus

…he whipping boy of many liberal, as well as nearly all conservative, journalists. (Three headlines from the centrist and mightily influential Washington Post Web site: “Wright Stirs Race Controversy,” “Wright Could Spell Doom for Obama,” “Obama’s Latest Test in a Long Line.”) The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. thundered from the pulpit against the white American penchant for turning difference into deficiency and denying the value of diversity. H…

By Brent D. Beal

…thought of that argument with my neighbor, and about my frustration, while listening to Boyd K. Packer’s talk at the General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints this past Sunday. I knew five minutes into this talk that it was going to set the bloggernacle abubble (as Joanna Brooks has already described here on RD). I put down the Sudoku puzzle I was fiddling with and paid attention. I was fascinated by it. And I was trans…

The Night of Power: Laylatul Qadri

By Amina Wadud

…to call upon Allah, “the names come back to you as if you are reading the list upon a script.” She held her hands shoulder high, palms up to the heavens in the Muslim position of supplication. I could “see” what she meant, then and there, and I stopped worrying that I would make a promise and then forget this unnamed woman and her three children.

News of “Gay Gene’s” Death Greatly Exaggerated

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…ugh Congress, simply adds sexual orientation and gender identity to a long list of categories that are already protected by the current hate crimes law. One of them is a choice people make: their religion. For conservatives to say they will be arrested for preaching against gays and lesbians if these other “choices” are added to the law is preposterous on its face. If the law could be used against what they call “thought crimes” why are we not cha…

A New Theopolitical Order: But What About The Women?

By Frances Kissling

…e planning close to the leader’s vest. Endlessly long male keynote sermons promoting each other, and excessive pruning and posturing by the alpha males is the new liturgy. It is a wonder women don’t get up, rip off our clothes, and streak down the aisle. A Match Made in Heaven And then we get to 2004. Democrats need religion. Progressive religionists need a party. A match made in heaven. But where were the women? Not nonexistent, but few and far b…
