Posted on 05/08/13 at 06:56 pm in response to Gay-marriage bill has votes to pass Minnesota House, sponsor Clark says

Sure we have computers, cars, space travel, etc., but has the understanding of and our relationship with God really changed that much (given the vast amount of time that the universe has been around, let alone God)? Maybe there are a new ten commandments besides the one asking us to love one another, (but that was given by Jesus, who process theology seems to discount as just another person) but they still seem applicable after all of our advancement.

What the unintended consequences are, but probably not for a couple of decades. The courts and our schools will start providing some answers and if we start down a slippery slope where we end up is anyone's guess. Just imagine, after THOUSANDS OF YEARS it took just one election.

Posted on 05/03/13 at 11:14 pm in response to Forget about over-reach; legislators should do now what we know is right

What is right. Yes, I know that Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have the same chance of getting into heaven as a camel passing through an eye of a needle, but I also know that anything is possible with God.

Posted on 05/03/13 at 11:35 pm in response to Twin Cities area suffers from shortage of ... empty lots

More money is great, but time is precious. Why does it have to be either/or? It's all about choice. Oh yes, choice. Perhaps some of you have heard the term.

Posted on 05/02/13 at 07:16 pm in response to Minnesota's gun control bill doomed by caucus split, pragmatic politics

Isn't that the point of the legislature, to propose new laws and then vote on them? It takes maybe 15 minutes for a vote. Why are our legislators so afraid to vote? That's what they said they would do when they were campaigning. As writers Paul U. and Greg K. would say: Enough of these games!

Posted on 05/02/13 at 07:10 pm in response to Minnesota income tax increases virtually certain — but not tax reform

Coon Rapids to possibly get back on the LGA train! Our property taxes have been going down yet we'll get relief from that when the State gives us more money.

Posted on 04/30/13 at 09:08 pm in response to Minnesota Senate needs two tries to pass DFL tax bill

It seems like it will be the DFL majority and Governor that will be extracting the money from all of our friend's and neighbor's wallets so that they can sit back and get that raise they want to give themselves.

Posted on 05/03/13 at 11:29 pm in response to Hostile reception greets Dayton at first metro-area ‘Meet with Mark’ session

MnPost, the Strib, Pat Kessler on the radio, all are concerned about the reaction by the Governor. At most protests or events, the "journalists" get quotes from the people in attendance (both sides if they're good) and let the readers decide. Has anyone seen more than one or two of the questions asked or wondered why so many people took some of their valuable time to come out and share their feelings with the Governor? And seriously, we're going to give the Governor the Nobel Peace prize...

Posted on 04/28/13 at 08:11 pm in response to Minnesota's air quality rises in new stats; how those grades are made

Where? Reader Berg must not have seen your reply and asked for cites so I thought that I would.

Posted on 04/23/13 at 09:42 pm in response to MSP among airports with sequester-related delays, FAA tracking website reports

It is rightly written under the heading "Political Agenda".
