quote:
addiction isn't about any "weakness" or "moral failings" that need punishment.
Would you agree that addiction is a "weakness" or "moral failing" that needs treatment? If that's the case then I whole heartedly agree with you, but I can't speak for conservitives as a whole.

On the issue of hypocracy, I could make a blanket statement that sin is bad. That's a true statement and yet I know that i sin. I would only be a hypocrite if I claimed to be above sin.


As far as that quote went I couldn't make heads nor tails of it grammatically. I didn't listen on Monday, but i did briefly today and I heard him talk to a caller and he mentioned the people he met in rehab and mentioned that all types of people are in danger of becoming addicts and he even went as far as to say that imprisonment wouldn't help any of them, but that it's a weakness that had to be faced.
