Are you comparing Pat

Comparing the two presidents
is a little like comparing a bass (Bush) to a great white shark (Iranian president). 
She wasn't comparing them.
She was giving an example of unsound reasoning.
this looks like you are comparing a black
person to a "retarded" person, which makes YOU look bad. -and have some respect for the office, please. Talking like a 5-year-old does not help your own cause.
name-calling, same old liberal. Comparing SP to
nm
Yes, but he is comparing policies and emphasizing
words straight from McC's mouth and infinitely verifiable upon inspection of his record. Obama is NOT indulging himself in a character assassinating, fear-mongering, cultural warring free-for-all. People DO notice the difference, you know...at least, some of them anyway.
That congressman is comparing him to Hitler
I can't remember his name, but I saw it on Fox News. All he's doing is getting everybody in an uproar and scaring them. I think that's why people are posting this now.
Let be what is, everybody, and just have a sit-and-wait approach. It's much less stressful! :)
Comparing McCain's and Obama's
life achievements it was obvious I could never vote for Obama. However, as comparatively better as McCain seemed to me, it was still obvious that they were promising to take us in about the same direction, only at slightly different speeds. Still, rather than not vote, or throw my ballot away on a third party, I went for McCain, choosing someone who had served well in the military over someone whose main claims to fame were socialism, gutting the constitution and 'community organization.' Maybe conservatives will have their act together a little better by 2012 and the choice will be clearer.
Relax, you're comparing everybody to Slick Will and Hill.

I wasn't comparing Rush to Affleck. sm
And no one here said a word of condemnation against Affleck. That was my point.
I am comparing SP to other repubs - not democrats - in my question - nm

stop comparing politicians to fish!
Everyone knows referring to Trout Pout is a subtle racial insult!
I'm sorry, but are you comparing an embryo, fetus to a turkey?!?!? And you think it is funny?!?!
I wonder if I'm the only one who finds your idea of a joke offensive. Just when I was ready to be offended by "blob of tissue" you chime in with your turkey joke. I'm stunned sometimes at the callousness of some people. I don't know why I would be stunned considering the world we live in, but I still am from time to time. Thank my Heavenly Father! I wouldn't want to be so cold.
Those "blobs of tissue" have heartbeats. Those "blobs of tissue" have such beauty and such potential. Those "blobs of tissue" are alive.
This is unbelieveable and ridiculous - your comparing two totally opposite things
You cannot compare the two. You evidently approve of the bible studies and that is fine. There is nothing wrong with a bible study if you keep it under a certain number.
These people are assembling more than 15 people in which case they need to get a license according to the law. There are certain rules why (fire codes, etc). This is being done on a regular basis. Therefore it becomes a business.
The playground for the kids have a license and is zoned for such.
The "folks at the airport for their plane. Lawbreakers?" Are you for real? That is what the airport is for. It is zoned for that and they pay their fees to whatever state, and they abide by the laws.
It's not what they are doing in their home. It's that they are assembling a large congegration of people on a regular basis in a home that is not zoned for the business.
You cannot compare this with a playground, airport, or a tupperware party (which occurs on an infrequent basis here and there).
Having a social event like scrapbooking, tupperware party, having some friends over to watch a sports game is a whole different issue (unless they have it on a weekly basis with open bar and more than 15 people - in which case they need to get a license and follow the law). It's not that we hate what they are doing. That has nothing to do with it. The law is specific and they are breaking the law.
Here's a question for you...if I lived next door to you and I belonged to a Wiccan group would you mind me having 20 or so people over every week so that we could have our ceremonies to celebrate our wiccan holidays and rituals. Would you mind that 20 or so people were in the backyard next to yours completing our ritual of praying to the moon goddess (or whatever gods/goddesses for the ritual) at night. Sometimes we build a fire and dance in circles and chant our prayers. Would you mind that. Some groups even complete their ceremonies in the nude. Would you be fine with that?
It's very simple. The law states that if you have over a certain number of people that hold regular meetings/functions you need to have a business license and follow the law. It doesn't matter what they are doing. They need to follow the law.
