By Daniel Schultz

…ng process that sorts out good options and bad even before decision makers use appropriate caution in choosing the path forward. The institutionalization of checks and balances, Rosenberg argues, is the essence of liberalism. I’ll leave it up to you to decide whether Rosenberg is being fair to AZDem.

…e speech, and most of all, raises a pile of money, very little of which is used on behalf of poor people. On the other hand, Warren Throckmorton, the evangelical psychologist who has played such a significant role in raising awareness of the evangelical world’s use of myth and falsehood to spread homophobia, had last month taken the religious right groups to task for their “mostly unfortunate and unhelpful” responses to the the SPLC.

And they offer single-stall unisex bathrooms that allow transgendered people to use the facilities without trouble.
