Good catch actually
Is it me or are most Republican hopefuls........well........off their rockers?
your assholes = your asshole politicians.
I thought he was saying the community has a say. How do you get government out of that. I guess you can imply the community is the lowest form of government, but communities generally have no formal structure.
Are you in favor of the people not being able to control their communities?
Define control in this instance.
You always bring the goods WC.
And no, the community doesn't have a right to ban buildings because of religious distaste. Pretty sure that's uncons utional.
Are you in favor of people not being allowed to build edifices that express their religious beliefs? Are you saying you don't believe in the right to gather freely?
Cobra, what are your thoughts on this:
Are you going to need a transcript?
Or a sedative

I wonder what Cain's feelings are on black surgeons
GOP Candidate Cain Gets Away With Bigotry
It is time to stop giving Herman Cain’s unapologetic bigotry a free pass. The man and his poison need to be seen clearly and taken seriously.
Imagine the reaction if a major-party presidential candidate—one who, like Cain, shows actual support in the polls—said he “wouldn’t be comfortable” appointing a Jew to a Cabinet position. Imagine the outrage if this same candidate loudly supported a community’s efforts to block Mormons from building a house of worship.
But Cain’s prejudice isn’t against Mormons or Jews, it’s against Muslims. Open religious prejudice is usually enough to disqualify a candidate for national office—but not, apparently, when the religion in question is Islam.
On Sunday, Cain took the position that any community in the nation has the right to prohibit Muslims from building a mosque. The sound you hear is the collective hum of the Founding Fathers whirring like turbines in their graves.
Freedom of religion is, of course, guaranteed by the Cons ution. There’s no asterisk or footnote exempting Muslims from this protection. Cain says he knows this. Obviously, he doesn’t care.
Cain launched into an elaborate conspiratorial fantasy about how the proposed place of worship is “not just a mosque for religious purposes” and how there are “other things going on.”

Racist Cain pandering to the KKK and "Christian" Taleban crowds.
I think it is indicative of the party in general, and a direct product of the echo-chamber of Fox "news" and the radio jocks that make up the self-professed conservative media in this country.Is it me or are most Republican hopefuls........well........off their rockers?
It is said that "revolutions eat their children", and this is no different to me.
The Repbulican Revolution under Gingrich spawned a whole new generation deeply concerned with ideological purity on the conservative side. I'm not sure when the term "RINO" (Republican In Name Only) came about, but it would not surprise me that it came out of this era.
After this revolution, like all others, the true measure of your credibility is/was how closely you hew to the official dogma of that revolution. If you deviate or have the temerity to question the underlying assumptions, you are out.
In actual shooting revolutions, such as the various communist/totalitarian insurgencies, or the American/French revolution, that tended to lead to actual hangings, so I guess the moderates so villified by the GOP rank and file have it lucky that they are simply ostracised and marginalised.
The upside to all this for me as a Democrat, is that the party is driving to the right pretty hard and alienating a LOT of people at a time when the demographic clock is ticking against the party of rich white people, by rich white people, and for rich white people. It will find itself increasingly isolated.
Unfortunately that will make them feel more and more threatened, and I would expect to see some uptick of violence on the fringes as that happens.
To be clear: I don't think the vast majority of conservatives are violent people. They aren't. But for the small minority that are predisposed to violence, the electoral decline against the conservative party will be seen as "proof" that "they" are winning, and "something must be done". This will be a long-term 20+ year trend, but one I am sadly confident in.
If this had been a case of a liberal secular community attempting to ban a new Christian church out of fear that the Christians in the community were going to impose "Bible law" on the country, you can bet your ass which side the Republicans would be on, and what their arguments would be.
this post makes little sense.

"Controlling a community" does not give anyone a license to disregard the Cons ution.
I am all in favor of letting a community set its own standards.
I am *not* in favor of letting that community trample on the cons utional rights of minorities.
all kinds of groups like schools, Mormons, Catholics, orthodox Jews, Ron-Hubbardites set and enforce their own rules. The military disregards the Cons ution and removes just about all rights from military grunts. OK if you're an enlistee, but not so OK if you're conscripted to waste your mind, body in a disaster like Viet Nam.
Cain singles out Muslims to rouse and sucker the xenophobic, paranoid, ignorant, racist rabble. Works every time. Just ask Fox Repug Propaganda network, Palin, Bachmann, etc.
If the community in Orlando had decided that Casey Anthony should be executed without a trial, would that have been okay? After all, shouldn't the people be able to control their community?
It depends of if it's the original quota free system or not.
You obviously don't pay attention to specifics. Just the catch phrases.
From the little I know, he doesn't support quota's.
Show me wrong.
What's your opinion in either case?
I really have no interest in Cain. I was specifically asking you since you seemed interested enough in him, so I figured you did your homework.
Guess not.
LOL...
You have zero clue.
If you understood my past statements on affirmative action, you wouldn't be saying what you are.
If he supports quotas, I will cross him off my list.
Shocking, I know.
