That's right, I forgot. But so is Spock! and he certainly doesn't "look" Jewish
Actually I should have been more clear... Enyart had just finished saying that even though these guys (Prager and Medved) are on Salem radio, “I’ve warned friends for years….they listen to these talk shows and they’re are fun and interesting… but don’t get seduced to think that these people have the answers”.

My time is very valuable. It is spent in ministry, it is spent with my wife and children, it is spent at work, and it is spent in study. What's left of my time goes to a few pleasure items like listening to a new CD or record or reading the occasional fiction book or watching an extremely occasional movie on DVD.
Therefore, I spent a few minutes of time in the car listening to a supposed conservative, rather than spending that time planning for church, or family or being in prayer. Take from that what you will.

Your time is no more valuable than mine. I spend mine in ministry also (the lay clergy thing kinda makes all us who take our faith seriously as being in the ministry.
The nice thing about the radio is that you can often do it while doing other things.
I personally like Prager better. But Medved is good. Not that anyone should listen to talk radio, or even Medved's show, all the time or religiously. But if more people listened to Medved's show this nation would be better off. I'd especially recomend many of his recordings that are played on national holidays such as Thanksgiving.

He does have some pretty conservative views on certain issues. On other issues, he is a flaming lefty (as evidenced by your first post).
You could call him a flaming "liberal" but 'lefty' has nothing to do with support or condemnation of homosexuality. Another misuse of the whole right/left term.

At least in foster care there is the chance that they would go to a good and loving home where a man and woman have a proper relationship with one another. I know or have met many people who in fact are just such foster parents. They are Christians who love the Lord. I know there are rotten ones out there too.
I lived next door to a guy named Dave. Dave and his wife were coke addicts. She got pregnant and when she had the baby the baby was born with a lot of problems due to the cocaine. The wife abandoned the baby and Dave was in no shape to raise a child. His life was a mess. I know because I lived in a double next door to the guy. He was always having wild parties at night. The baby was given temporarily to a foster home. The foster home happened to be good folks who loved the baby very much despite his physical problems that caused him to cry a lot.
Dave got off of the coke and drugs for a short period of time, got himself cleaned up and moved in a lady who became his "fiancee". He did all this so he could fight to get his baby back. He said "No kid of mine is going to be raised away from me." This is what he told me.
The foster family really wanted to keep the baby but lost in the end because Dave was able to fool them into thinking he had a stable environment to raise the baby in. As soon as the baby moved in, things went really bad. We moved out around this same time, and one day I was driving home from work when my wife called me on the cell and told me our former house was on the news and there had been a baby killed. I knew instantly what had happened. I rushed home and my wife and I saw in utter sadness on the news how the baby had been murdered by Dave's fiancee, that she had gotten angry at his crying and thrown him into the crib forcefully. Dave was seen on the news talking about how outraged he was that she would do such a thing. Then it was revealed that Dave had been severely molesting the baby boy as well, and that those wounds also contributed to the baby's death.
I know this is somewhat off topic in regards to homosexuals raising kids, but it is entirely relevant. In this situation the foster family was the good guys and the coke-addict, child-molesting father was the bad guy. Dave and Sandy both got time in jail, but they both will get out one day probably. The baby didn't get that choice. One of the saddest things for me was hearing that the foster family were believers and how much they loved the baby for the several months he lived with them.
IF there is even a small chance the baby would wind up in a good home, then any baby is far better off taking that chance than in the home of homosexuals.

Homosexuals cannot provide mental and physical stability for themselves, let alone a child. And what you call in quotes "proper care" is the most important issue. Or do you mock proper care of children in this?
