Falwell Jr. urged students at Liberty U. to get guns to protect themselves on campus.
Question:
How effective would this be in deterring suicidal jihadists who expect to die anyway?
Jesus would be proud!

Mueller's favorite place to pray (written about in "Prophet's Way"), and the roof of the room where the Last Supper is reputed to have happened.
From Screwed:
"Thom Hartmann’s book explains in simple language and with concrete research the details of the Neo-con’s war against the American middle class. It proves what many have intuited and serves to remind us that without a healthy, employed, and vital middle class, America is no more than the richest Third World country on the planet."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"In an age rife with media-inspired confusion and political cowardice, we yearn for a decent, caring, deeply human soul whose grasp of the problems confronting us provides a light by which we can make our way through the quagmire of lies, distortions, pandering, and hollow self-puffery that strips the American Dream of its promise. How lucky we are, then, to have access to the wit, wisdom, and willingness of Thom Hartmann, who shares with us here that very light, grown out of his own life experience."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
Thom has told the story about the "Caucus Room Conspiracy" as has many online publications. I have never seen anyone reference PBS Frontline to this event. As an FYI, PBS Frontline did cover this event in an episode called "Inside Obama's Presidency" which aired 1/15/2013 and can be viewed online. http://video.pbs.org/video/2325679851/
I am only putting this up here because I have not seen this material referenced anywhere. The first 10 minutes covers the "caucus room" event and interviews Frank Luntz and Newt Gingrich. The depth of depict on the part of the republicans in this meeting and the reality that this event would effect on the "Tanking" of the country as well as the borderline treasonous nature of this agreement was not developed in the piece. But the event was at least admitted to and it is now out there on the world web.
