But his reaction to Rachel Carson and his views on abortionists were spot on. Why should we honor a lesbian? A man isn&#039;t a real man if he&#039;s having &#039;sex&#039; with another man and woman isn&#039;t a woman if she&#039;s having perverted &#039;sex&#039; with another woman.Why shouldn&#039;t a doctor who is killing the most innocent among us receive the death penalty? A man who takes the life of an innocent adult deserves death and that is exactly what an abortionist deserves.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Interesting analysis on Tom Coburn.

Marciano used to listen to Louis bouts on the radio as a young boy.
He was so distraught at &#039;having&#039; to beat his hero that he is said to have wept in his dressing room.An honourable mention in my book.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For a variety of reasons (mostly very suspect tax charges) Joe Louis was forced to fight for far longer than he should&#8217;ve.</p><p>In his final bout, he was KO&#8217;d by Rocky Marciano.<br

It should be noted that Abraham Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus. It was much like the Roman Dictators but still it may have been misused in some cases.To the whole Jesus having manly tears is silly. All the men listed here have a very factual, real basis. 90 percent of the bible is exaggerated story telling. This is not saying that it is bad, that is not my case right now, my case is that Jesus cannot be manly in this sense. He is too different a character from all other men to be manly. Odysseus was a badass though fictional, he cried in the Odyssey, and he was much more human than Jesus yet still he doesn&#039;t have a place on this list.Oh and Stalin should get some mention for when he cried when Churchill presented  him the Sword of Stalingrad. Its funny, its true he was a coward and such but the romanticism that was placed around him and the October Revolution  has made another fictional thing so cool. It leads me to believe that manliness is a concept and will never actually be in existence, like communism it will be striven for but never accomplished perfectly except in stories.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As badass as this site is in general there are some problems, the pros and cons associated with old time manliness.

It&#039;s one of my earliest, most coherent memories--as a very small girl, it shocked me to see a picture of a man crying on the front page of the daily paper.  I was three or four, far too young to be aware of current events, no matter how politically cataclysmic, and didn&#039;t realize until later what the context was.As for the Checkers speech--the whole thing was a (successful) attempt to manipulate the audience, and so it&#039;s hard to have any sympathy for the man there.  I&#039;m actually more inclined to feel sorry for him during the second instance--I imagine he must have felt a good deal of remorse and regret then.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Didn&#8217;t Nixon cry when he resigned?
