John Pepple has some questions for progressives. By the way, notice the abusive comments on John's post—by someone who is too cowardly to give his or her name. Think about it. John has the courage of his convictions. The commenter is afraid to take responsibility for his or her views. This is the worst part of the blogosphere, in my opinion. It enables cowardice. I don't know about John, but if someone said those things to my face, he or she would be lying on the ground with a broken jaw.
