Right Wing News "The Rightosphere Temperature Check For June: Sanford, Atheists, Health Care, Oh My!", in which I took part - my answers explained:
Do you think Mark Sanford should resign as Governor of South Carolina?
Yes, he lacks the moral authority to govern. In order to hold public office, you don't have to be an angel, but you shouldn't be an asshole. Adultery on the public dime is a disqualifier for anyone with a sense of shame.
Do you believe manmade global warming is occurring right now?
No. If we're warming, it's because of variations in the sun's activity. Or the oceans. Or volcanoes. Or clouds. Or - most likely - the impossibility of gathering meaningful "global" temperature readings, combined with data fudging for the purposes of garnering federal grant money.
If Barack Obama's health care plan were to pass, do you think care would become:
More expensive and of less quality. There's a reason sick Canadians come here.
What grade would you give Barack Obama on his handling of the crisis in Iran?
D-F. This would be a great time to start covertly shipping in money & weapons.
Do you think groups like the Club for Growth that back primary challenges towards Republican candidates they view as insufficiently principled are helping or hurting the conservative cause?
Helping. You reward what you want to see more of.
Would you vote for an atheist for President?
Yes. As long as he was a capitalist.
Do you believe, as a general rule, that conservatives are more moral than liberals?
Yes. I reach that decision by asking myself "if I lost my wallet, and I could choose one of two people to find it, but all I knew was that one was a conservative and one was a liberal, which one do I think would be more likely to return it with all the money still inside?"
