James David Manning Ph.D, http://www.atlah.org/ blasts Barack Obama because of the Obama Girl videos, neglecting to remember that the Obama campaign had nothing to do with them. He also accuses Obamas dad of 'whoring after a white woman'.
WTF is with these preachers who use these churches as havens for their insane political and racial rhetoric?
Where the fuck is the IRS??????
While I think Obama 'weenied out' of his duty to kick Wright to the curb, this Manning guy is a total freakazoid who makes Wright look like his only misdeed was escaping from an alzheimers unit.
The first amendment sure does hurt sometimes......
Lord save us from the preachers.

Embarrassed by What People Say
Considering Barack Obamas speech today regarding his pastor at Trintiy UCoC I have to admit that I am totally embarrassed.
Face it, Jeramiah Wright is a bigoted fruitcake. But thats OK because this is America, land of the First Amendment. Wright has as much right as anyone else to spew racial hatred as the white supremacist agrarian racist fruitcakes on the many southern born and bred websites. We may not like it and we may decry it but hey....like it or not...the guy has a right to speak his mind. (If you can call it that.)
My problem is twofold.
If Trinity is a church and churches are about preaching the gospel, then Trinity needs to have their tax free status revoked by the IRS as the message has changed from the gospel to politics and race issues.
The second problem stems from the fact that Wright seems to have lost what the gospel is really all about. If he were to preach the gospel..really preach the gospel would there be a need for racist fruitcake ranting from the pulpit? Does this man even know WHAT the gospel is? Does he even know who Jesus is? What kind of pastor...who supposedly has a call from God to preach uses Gods' name in vain in a sermon? What kind of pastor called by God to preach preaches hatred in Gods name?
I can appreciate Barack Obama addressing the racial issues, however I would like to hear him address how he can stand by a man who professes Christ yet shows everything that is the antithesis of Christ by his words.
That alone would be enough to sever this relationship...regardless of whether or not the pastor married him, baptized his children and was his spiritual mentor. If Barack Obama is a professing christian he needs to stand up and say that Wright is conpletely wrong and has left his first love. Which is what Christ is supposed to be to any professing Christian. (Now I know that all of you right wing religious Pat Robertson/Jerry Fallwell/Rush Limbaugh/Sean Hannity crazy assess out there will say that the first love is the repukelican party and taking dominion over society...but we really all do know how its' really supposed to be don't we?)
If Wright is the kind of spiritual mentor who is the antithesis of all things Christ why does Obama continue to cling to him? Who is the goat in this picture?
This bitch has to walk away from a church that she had been a member of for 15 years because the pastor left his first love....hard to do...but necessary to preserve the relationship with ...the first love.
Obama...rethink this...please. I am totally embarrassed for you and your church.
Wright....don't fight it if the IRS sends you a letter revoking Trinitys' tax free status...you brought in on yourself and the churches' members.

Dead Bear in the Middle of the Road
Was a bitch right or what on this shit??? The Bear got eaten alive by JP Morgan Chase with funds from Uncle Ben and the blessings of Bush and Paulson. Two bucks a share!!!
I bet this was the first time Bush was really aware that some serious shit was wrong with the economy. What is really funny/weird is that no matter what is going on....by the time the presidential election rolls around shit is always about the economy...it's like there are presidential-election-economy-gnomes that stir it all up and then run away and hide.
Problem is no one knows how to listen to Fed bullshit now that Greenspan isn't there speaking in "FedSpeak". The Fed did just fine if no one knew what the fuck it meant.
Yeah....we can always put all the christian right divisive issues on the back burner..because it really IS about the economy...stupid.

Bailing Out the Bear
Uncle Ben and the Federal Reserve (see valentine to ben posted earlier) have bailed out Bear Stearns to the tune of we-can't-tell-you but the Bear has a write downs of 2.75 BILLION mostly due to the mortgage sub prime people-who-could-not-buy-toilet-paper-got-to-buy-houses-financed-by-someone-with-less-brains....financial mess the USA is now in.
JPMorgan-Chase was the one who pumped in capital into the bears cave with the blessings of Uncle Ben. Chase is in pretty good shape...do I smell this bear getting eaten alive?
Which leads me to remember just how pissed off I am that theres even a fucking sub prime crisis to begin with.....
In 2004 hubby & I decided that we needed more space (we really did) and we decided to buy a new house with sorta well known to the 1st time home builder whose CEO resigned after back dating some options.....
Bottom line...since I was applying for the mortgage in my name only you would have thought the world had come to an end....all I heard from various home builder mortgage brokers was: Miss Bitch you are self employed.
No shit.
The last moron that said that to me received the "I know that you stupid bitch" answer at which point my husband sweetly (he knew better) asked me to go get something to drink....
Bottom line, told home builder mortgage people to fuck off and applied at national savings & loan. The mortage system was so fucked up there that I was dealing with a loan officer in FLORIDA and an underwriter in San Francisco who kept having fights with his boyfriend who then would get pissed and go nuts at work....
Home Builder was pissed that we did not buy 20,000 worth of upgrades when we built the house and used only 7800 of our 9700 in incentive money leaving extra money on the down payment. They took 10 months to build a 120 day house....and then had the nerve to want a good customer service survey... WTF?????????????
S&L Branch manager saves my ass. (NOTE: When dealing with S&L never call the 800 number always go to the branch...the executive people are CLUELESS....) we close and move in.
That 169,900 house could have cost our asses nearly 200,000 if we had bought all the shit home builder wanted to sell us at hyper inflated prices. Of course the home builder mortgage company would have financed all the shit we wanted at 2 points above what everyone else was getting because my ass was self employed.
Instead of buying their high priced lighting I bought on sale at Home Depot and Overstock.com. Same with the storm doors...Andersen at Home Depot. I also got blinds for 22 windows for about 1050 from an online website...75% less than home-builder studio.
Bottom line....people just got too fucking happy with shit and no one ever looked at the future and said Hmmmm what happens IF? BTW most of the variable rate mortages were tied to the LIBOR (London Index Bank Overnight Rate) and when that bitch moved...it moved...straight up! We refi'd our variable rate that was on its way to 7.5 back to 5.8 30 year fixed 24 months after closing.
People got caught because they were not educated consumers. For fucks sake people...get with it! If you are going to sign a note for several hundred thousand dollars don't you think some education is in order? Like WTF am I signing? WTF does it mean ? Will my ass be able to pay for it if shit gets nasty? Then you better learn how to figure with a calculator the shit is nasty results and show much it will cost your ass as well. You also better learn how to read the financial pages on Yahoo Finance and keep up with your shit.
Sorry if your ass is losing your home...sorry you believed all the bullshit you got fed. Me? I refuse to let someone else tell me how much money I need to spend to make my ass happy.
Dave Ramseys "Total Money Makeover" would be a good start.

I Wonder What Would Happen If?
The republicans are up in arms over Barack Obamas foreign policy stance of meeting with Raul Castro. Hillary, just like the republicans qualifies any meeting with 'there must be visible changes before...'. Obama however seems to leave the door open for dialog before we can see any change.
So...a bitch is wondering what if:
What if the USA took a really christian stance and esteemed others better than themselves and started meeting with some of the more..um..not-playing-nice-on-the-playground-world-leaders?
What if the USA could be counted on to help solve problems through dialog instead of invasion?
What if a US President reached out in good faith to these countries and encouraged others to do so as well.
What would happen if the left started doing what the right lays claim to but wouldn't know if it smacked them upside the head?
I wonder...what if.....just what if......

A Valentine for Bernanke
Cramer (cnbc) say s we should send Uncle Ben a valentine. Problem is as usual a bitch has to use THEIR words. Fuck that. I like my version better.
Collards are green

We are so fucked
To have a Fed Chairman like you.
May the fleas of a million camels infest your ears.....

The Politics of Race
The democrats have never really gotten it.
When Lyndon Johnson was forced to force Congress to pass civil rights legislation it was REPUBLICAN Senator Everett Dirksen from Illinios who kept prevented a filibuster by the southern democrats who were opposed to the legislation.
Hmmm...the civil rights movement started in the south....George Wallace, then governor of Alabama swore that integration of the schools would never happen.
The senator (Hillary Clinton ) was quoted as saying King's dream of racial equality was realized only when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
I guess I must be stupid. You see I REMEMBER the newspaper articles about Rosa Parks being arrested in Montgomery. I REMEMBER the civil rights workers both black and white that were killed. WOW a couple of people actually were convicted of those crimes over 30 years later. I remember how at our high school one of my friends was arrested for wearing a black power shirt. I REMEMBER how all the the students at that high school both black and white walked out in protest. I REMEMBER when having black friends got a white person called a n*&&^% lover.
I REMEMBER. Which is more than Hillary can say.
What if LBJ had not been forced to push this legislation?
Would there still be lynchings?
Would civil rights workers still be killed and their bodies buried in unmarked graves?
Would protesters still be subject to water canons or bullets such as met the war protesters at Kent State?
Would there still be segregated water fountains and restrooms?
LBJ did not do shit. His ass was forced to do something because this country was torn apart. All he did was give people the mistaken message that the Democratic party really cared.
Hope everyone now knows the truth.

SEE? I TOLD YOU SO....
Mike Huckabees' feeble attempts to actually fit in and be a viable candidate concerned with the issues finally died in a church in New Hampshire where he spoke of christians being in 'Gods' army'. Excuse me, I did not know that God was recruiting 'soldiers'.
I keep reading : Preach the gospel and baptize. Doesn't sound like 'Uncle Sam Wants YOU'.
Does it?

Why I Am NOT Voting With The 'Christian' Right
Obama and Huckabee.
Who'd 'a thought THAT six months ago? Voicing that prediction would have gotten you committed faster than Lindsey Lohan or Britney Spears into some serious 'political thought rehab'.
Here we go with the 'evangelical thing' again. How the Christians have to 'take back' the world and society for God.
Well if we really believe that we are truly, "ONE NATION UNDER GOD", then we are assuming ourselves to be UNDER the protection of God, that He is active and in control. So then if we as Christians really believe that then why do we waste so much time trying to have dominion over a society and country that we already don't have dominion over because we are under God. I personally can not possibly imagine me being able to thwart the will or providence of God.
Hey I am all for doing good works...as a matter of fact I am all for everyone doing good works. It really is a 'one another world' we live in. There isn't anyone I know, christian or atheist that would not agree that it is good to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. As a matter of fact..the atheists I know treat me a heck of a lot better than some of the more 'religious' people I know. Hmmmmmm.
Back to the topic.....the business of the church is to preach the gospel. I have heard the gospel and the more I hear of it...the more I reject the notion that the christian right should speak for me, tell me how to think and tell me how to vote. The business of any Christ or God minded person should be:
To do justice, to love mercy and walk humbly with your God; and love your neighbor as yourself. Frankly, being the person I am...it takes up most of my time just living by those words.
Yes my country is important to me, and I am going to vote for the person who in my mind, will do what he is called to do, what he swears to do, with his hand on a Bible, and that is: Defend the Constitution of the United States of America.
We live in a country where it is important that ALL citizens are treated as being equal, where ALL citizens are free to achieve as much as they desire to, and where all citizens when not able to care for themselves can count on a system of justice and equality to provide for them.
I am voting for Barak Obama.

Eating My Words For Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
At Sams last night this bitch was in the book department and saw Barak Obamas book "The Audacity of Hope'. Picking up the book and just picking a place this bitch read the following words:
"And although it was Jimmy Carter who would first introduce the language of evangelical Christianity into modern national poplitics, it was the Republican party, with its' increasing emphasis on tradition, order and "family values," that was best positioned to harvest this crop of politically awakened evangelicals and mobilize them against the liberal orthodoxy.
".....It is their issues - abortion, gay marriage, prayer in schools, intelligent design, Terri Schiavo, the posting of the Ten commandments in the courthouse, home schooling, voucher plans, and the makeup of the Supreme Court - that often dominate the headlines and serve as one of the major fault lines in American politics."
OMG. This guy believes what I do about the 'wedge issues' described above.
So this bitch is munching away on her words. Look out.... here is a white, over fifty, church going Republican that likes what she is learning about Obama. I just wonder if there are a ny more like me?

Time For A Cocktail......
Pat Buchanan scares the shit out of us again: (hat tip to Matt Drudge)
(he has a new book out...being released a week early)
"America is coming apart, decomposing, and...the likelihood of her survival as one nation...is improbable -- and impossible if America continues on her current course."
"For we are on a path to national suicide."
"America is in an existential crisis from which the nation may not survive." The U.S. Army is breaking and is too small to meet America’s global commitments. The dollar has sunk to historic lows and is being abandoned by foreign governments. U.S. manufacturing is being hollowed out. The greatest invasion in history, from the Third World, is swamping the ethno-cultural core of the country, leading to Balkanization and the loss of the Southwest to Mexico.
(oh no not the ethno-cultural core....maybe like the one thats' been what the US really is for the last 200 years....remember the give me your tired your poor...your huddled masses yearning to be free ethno-cultural core)....
"The culture (see above) is collapsing and the nation is being deconstructed along the lines of race and class.
"A fiscal crisis looms as the unfunded mandates of Social Security and Medicare remain unaddressed.
(**** let's not forget the 38Billion dollars in Wall Street bonuses paid out this season)
All the shit is hitting America at once -- the proverbial shit is hitting the fan all at once:
• Pax Americana, the era of U.S. global dominance, is over. A struggle for global hegemony has begun among the United States, China, a resurgent Russia and radical Islam
• Bush’s invasion of Iraq was a product of hubris and of ideology, a secular religion of “democratism,” to which Bush was converted in the days following 9/11
(GLORY!!!!)
• Torn asunder by a culture war, America has now begun to break down along class, ethnic and racial lines.
(ethno-cultural again...)
• The greatest threat to U.S. sovereignty and independence is the scheme of a global elite to erase America’s borders and merge the USA, Mexico and Canada into a North American Union.
• Free trade is shipping jobs, factories and technology to China and plunging America into permanent dependency and unpayable debt. One of every six U.S. manufacturing jobs vanished under Bush
(and none vanished under Reagan or Clinton?)
• “Sovereign Wealth Funds,” controlled by foreign regimes and stuffed with trillions of dollars from U.S. trade deficits, are buying up strategic corporate assets vital to America’s security
(the last time I looked GE was not for sale...)
• As U.S. wages are stagnant, corporate CEOs are raking in rising pay and benefits 400 to 500 times that of their workers
(this is NOT a good thing...but Pat are you doing anything but yapping about it? are you boycotting any of these companies or writing an expose of any of these companies?)
• The Third World invasion through Mexico is a graver threat to our survival as one nation than anything happening in Afghanistan or Iraq* European-Americans, 89% of the nation when JFK took the oath, are now 66% and sinking. Before 2050, America is a Third World nation
• By 2060, America will add 167 million people and 105 million immigrants will be here, triple the 37 million today.
• Hispanics will be over 100 million in 2050 and concentrated in a Southwest most Mexicans believe belongs to them
• A new foreign-defense policy that closes most of the 1000 bases overseas, reviews all alliances, and brings home U.S. troops• A purge of neoconservative ideology and the “Cakewalk” crowd” from national power.
(define WHICH NeoCons...and what the hell is the cakewalk crowd? and tell me how we equate 'foreign-defense' with the closing of bases?)
• To avert a second Cold War, the United States should “get out of Russia’s space and get out of Russia’s face,” and shut down all U.S. bases on the soil of the former Soviet Union
(does that mean that Vladimir will no longer be welcome in Texas???...the nerve!!!)
• To reach a cold peace in the culture war, Buchanan mandates a return to federalism and the overthrow of our judicial dictatorship by Congressionally mandated restrictions on the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.
(oh great we let CONGRESS...that bunch of idiots restrict the court...shit what's next?...let me guess the PATRIOT ACT?)
• To end the trade deficits and save the dollar, Buchanan suggests a Hamiltonian solution extraordinaire: 20% Border Equity Tax on imports, with the $500 billion raised to be used to end taxation on American producers
(how about we end some of those local farm subsidies??? what will Wal-mart do for merchandise...this could be the end of a retailing era...)
• America must not become “a tangle of squabbling nationalities” Buchanan solves the problem as follows: No amnesty for the 12-20 million illegal aliens; a border fence from San Diego to Brownsville; Congressional declarations that children born to illegal aliens are not citizens and English is the language of the United States; and a “timeout” on all immigration.
(timeout on ALL immigration?????? get a grip man...)
Buchanan seems to have an overwhelming problem with Hispanics. I just have a problem with ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.
Once again...another moron telling me that above all things I need to be scared shitless, stupid and listening to him.
NOT!!! You see while I realize that shit is not perfect and some shit needs to be radically repaired...I am not in the business of being afraid. I am in the business of making a difference.
THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ME AND PAT BUCHANAN.

(GLORY!!!!)
• Torn asunder by a culture war, America has now begun to break down along class, ethnic and racial lines.
(ethno-cultural again...)
• The greatest threat to U.S. sovereignty and independence is the scheme of a global elite to erase America’s borders and merge the USA, Mexico and Canada into a North American Union.
• Free trade is shipping jobs, factories and technology to China and plunging America into permanent dependency and unpayable debt. One of every six U.S. manufacturing jobs vanished under Bush
(and none vanished under Reagan or Clinton?)
• “Sovereign Wealth Funds,” controlled by foreign regimes and stuffed with trillions of dollars from U.S. trade deficits, are buying up strategic corporate assets vital to America’s security
(the last time I looked GE was not for sale...)
• As U.S. wages are stagnant, corporate CEOs are raking in rising pay and benefits 400 to 500 times that of their workers
(this is NOT a good thing...but Pat are you doing anything but yapping about it? are you boycotting any of these companies or writing an expose of any of these companies?)
• The Third World invasion through Mexico is a graver threat to our survival as one nation than anything happening in Afghanistan or Iraq* European-Americans, 89% of the nation when JFK took the oath, are now 66% and sinking. Before 2050, America is a Third World nation
• By 2060, America will add 167 million people and 105 million immigrants will be here, triple the 37 million today.
• Hispanics will be over 100 million in 2050 and concentrated in a Southwest most Mexicans believe belongs to them
• A new foreign-defense policy that closes most of the 1000 bases overseas, reviews all alliances, and brings home U.S. troops• A purge of neoconservative ideology and the “Cakewalk” crowd” from national power.
(define WHICH NeoCons...and what the hell is the cakewalk crowd? and tell me how we equate 'foreign-defense' with the closing of bases?)
• To avert a second Cold War, the United States should “get out of Russia’s space and get out of Russia’s face,” and shut down all U.S. bases on the soil of the former Soviet Union
(does that mean that Vladimir will no longer be welcome in Texas???...the nerve!!!)
• To reach a cold peace in the culture war, Buchanan mandates a return to federalism and the overthrow of our judicial dictatorship by Congressionally mandated restrictions on the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.
(oh great we let CONGRESS...that bunch of idiots restrict the court...shit what's next?...let me guess the PATRIOT ACT?)
• To end the trade deficits and save the dollar, Buchanan suggests a Hamiltonian solution extraordinaire: 20% Border Equity Tax on imports, with the $500 billion raised to be used to end taxation on American producers
(how about we end some of those local farm subsidies??? what will Wal-mart do for merchandise...this could be the end of a retailing era...)
• America must not become “a tangle of squabbling nationalities” Buchanan solves the problem as follows: No amnesty for the 12-20 million illegal aliens; a border fence from San Diego to Brownsville; Congressional declarations that children born to illegal aliens are not citizens and English is the language of the United States; and a “timeout” on all immigration.
(timeout on ALL immigration?????? get a grip man...)
Buchanan seems to have an overwhelming problem with Hispanics. I just have a problem with ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.
Once again...another moron telling me that above all things I need to be scared shitless, stupid and listening to him.
NOT!!! You see while I realize that shit is not perfect and some shit needs to be radically repaired...I am not in the business of being afraid. I am in the business of making a difference.
THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ME AND PAT BUCHANAN.
More Than A Woman To Them....
Hey Everyone!!!
Again we see that IT'S NOT GOOD TO BE A WOMAN IN A MANS' WORLD.
In Brazil, one female is incarcerated with 70 men and forced to have sex just to be able to eat. Ok ok so she was in jail for breaking and entering....
In Saudi Arabia a woman is sentenced to be lashed AFTER being gang raped. Yeah we all know it was because she was in the company of non related males so that makes it HER FAULT that she was raped.
Way to go....

Happy Holi-daze
Well its that time again. Home for the holidays where all of the familial dysfunctional insanity rears its ugly head again.
This bitch, FH (fabulous husband) and 2 puppies will enjoy a lovely meal of rib eyes, ABB corn casserole yumminess, cranberry salad and assorted dips, chips and other snack-wonderful foodage while we relax and watch movies, parades and football.

Double WTF??? and How Did THAT Shit Happen?
Pat Robertson of the I-hate-baby-killing-withcraft-practicing-women-who-have-more-than-one-brain-cell-in-their-heads-lets-assasinate-Hug0-Chavez-I-can-bench-press-2000lb-with-my-christian-muscle-potion-gay-hating-and-baiting-no-abortion-has endorsed...
Rudy Giuliani of the I-am-announcing-my-divorce-at-a-press-conference-before-my-soon-to-be-ex-wife-and-mistress-get-face-to-face-and-public-taxpayers-money-should-be-spent-on-abortions-and-gay-couples-should-have-the-right-to-marry...
does ANYONE see a contradiction in terms...or values...or whatever whoever is calling that shit that means nothing these days?
As far as this bitch is concerned.....this does not bode well for Rudy...this bitch decided a long time ago that she would vote AGAINST anyone that the fundie wacko christian right endorsed.
Of course its always funny when James Dobson gets riled up....

Why The World Will Not End In 2012
OK I know I know that the Mayan calendar said it all stopped in 2012, and that Nostradamus (sort of) agrees with that but they are wrong and here is why.
Both were working with a limited planetary movement model that stopped at the precise moment when the rising sun would intersect the exact midpoint of the MilkyWay galaxy, the exact mid point of our galaxy.
Heres what this B.I.T.C.H. predicts for the future:
2008: Tim LaHaye of the "Your-Unbelieving-Ass-Just-Got-LEFT-BEHIND' fame starts a new series called: The Time of the End of Time. The christian community goes ape and LaHaye makes 7 trillion dollars. He and Beverly then buy John Edwards' house and turn it into a home for unwed mothers.
2009: Gary North, Karen & Steve Anderson & Bruce Tippery start their new websites on 'The End of Time for Women'. This will teach women how to protect their families when the world as we know it ends. Hopefully there will be some sort of instruction on how to deal with being dead or incenerated or radiated or whatever is going to happen to us. Gary North builds a rocket and tries to get to another solar system. North kidnaps Steven Hawking thinking that he has the star map to a safe galaxy.
2010: Only two years left. A new incarnation of the last Mayan High Priest is recognized (my vote is for Steven Seagal, shit that could be believable!) Animal sacrifice is reinstituted at MachuPichu in Mexico to appease the sky god. PETA goes into apoplexy, rescues the remaining animals and Steven Seagal calls down the wrath of the sky god on mankind. (stock market up 30% in one day). The christian right is having a fit since the temple has not been restored in Israel and the animal sacrifices restored 'there'. Tim LaHaye leads an End Times Team into Israel to take over the temple mount and as a result of his actions is sentenced to wear a burkha and be chained to a large sow for the rest of his life.
2011: Y2K here we come only now its Y2K12. There is mass panic in the markets as people quit their jobs, drop out of school and hide in the mountains and caves. Sattelite broadband companies and radio make a fortune. Stocks drop like falling rock on a California hillside and are scooped up by a few people (mostly athiest or not really christians **).
2012: Well the world did not end. The losers that quit their jobs and ran for it look like fools (North, Andersons and Tippery???) again (see Y2K), the traders and investors that bought all of the stocks dirt cheap now control 90% of the wealth in the USA and the evangelical right looks like the village idiot AGAIN!!!! The internet, sattelite radio and broadband are controlled by one global investment company headed by a woman. . the NYSE, NASDAQ, Chicago Merc and all of the Foreign Stock Exchanges are controlled by the daughter of the owner of all the internet and communication stuff.
Looks like the girls win after all. Now THAT folks is a happy ending.

Nostradamus Comes of Age (sort of)
Tonight the History Channel will pay hommage to Nostradamus...purveyor of ancient (well old anyway) prophecy for the times of today. Since the show is about the 'end of the world' I was just wondering (beforehand) if Tim LaHaye (of the Left Behind series fame) or Hal Lindsey (Late Great Planet Earth fame) were going to be there to lend their two cents worth of ...I don't know what to call it...OPINION maybe?
Hal Lindsey scared scads of people (ok me included) in the early 70's with his version of the truth..LaHaye and his literary minions are scaring (ok me NOT included this time...see I learned my lesson) scads more this time with his brand of "what-will-your-ass-do-when-all-the-christians-have-been-raptured-and-your-scraggy-non-believing-ass-is-left-on-earth-with-all-the-anti-christ-minions-and-666-mark-on-the-forehead-neighbors....
Sounds like some so called faithful minions based shit to me
Let's generate FEAR...which in turn will generate (oh I cannot believe that I missed this for years and years about my fellow (hack, spit, cough) fellow believers...) MONEY.
But less I digress....this B.I.T.C.H. does not open her wallet when she is having fear. Too bad my so called brothers and sisters are not as savvy.
More tomorrow on Nostradamus and what will my ass do when the world ends? So its like I will be in a position to care?

I Must Be Clueless...
Just a thought here.....
but for all of the continuing theological discussion taking place in presbyterian circles regarding federal vision, covenant membership..blah..blah and more blah...
I feel really stupid still being stuck at:
do justice
love mercy
walk humbly with my God
love my neighbor as myself...
hoping like crazy my salvation does not hang on my ability to discuss the 'finer points' (note sarcasm) of the cons & pros of the fv....
to read the discussions is to really wonder if there is such a thing as 'just a christian'....
by the theological definitions of today....probably not....belief and faith in God do not seem to be of any importance.....these days it's all about being able to discuss....
is the church weird or is it just me?

I Promised To Go To War On The Election but....
...what really is there to go to war on? Is there any reason at all why any of the candidates need to be elected? Is there really any reason at all why we should even re-elect the dysfunctional insanity-possessed (meaing BOTH repukelicans and dementedocrats) partisan minions?
...presidential election...NOT!!!!!
Weighing in.....
Barak Obama...first you need to be ashamed of yourself for putting politics into the pulpit. NO you can not come to my church and campaign...we worship on Sunday...Jesus...rmember HIM?
Rudy...Rudy..Rudy...loose the cellphone and put the trophy wife in a cabinet....(and not as secretary of something or another either ;)
Hillary...Penn just came out with a poll that said 24% of republican women may cross over to vote for Hillary...he sees it as a woman thing...I see it as women being tired of the men. How could a woman (even Hillary) FUBAR it up any more than the men that are there already have???? While this B.I.T.C.H. is not a socialized medicine fan AT ALL...she knows that the current system is broken beyond belief and wishes relief as much as the next person. (BTW did ya'll know that hospitals and doctors charge MORE if you have health insurance? They bill the health insurance companies about 20-30% more than a doctor visit costs and hospitals bill insurance companies DOUBLE what a patient with no health care costs!!!) So yeah I would say that shit needs to be fixed real quick.
The religious right does not seem to have a candidate this year. Thats a good thing...because I will not vote for anyone...repukelican or dementedocrat that anyones religious right puts their stamp of dominion (er..a...approval) on.
next: the perfect political platform

WTF????
...LAX (LAngeles) 75% fake bombs missed by our wonderful TSA?
...ORD (O'Hare) 60% fake bombs missed by the above?
..SFO (SanFrancisco) did really well...only 20% of the fake bombs were missed...
Amazing....when the majority of us are worried about a cavity search...the real threats go unnoticed.
Your tax dollars at work.....again
