Murph

VOTE NOW: The Biggest Political F#%! Up of 2011

Adlib
I just finished reading Joe McGinnis book on Palin and I think I now know why she declined this year. She would have been humiliated that her home state would not have supported or voted for her. She is actually despised now in Alaska. Probably why she bought the home in Arizona. Speaking of batshitcrazy lol

These are mine in no particular order

Donald Trump betting all his chips and comb-overs on Obama’s Birth Certificate
(President Obama and Seth Rogan took care of this at the correspondents dinner in DC.)

WI Gov. Scott Walker’s rampage against unions, voters, free speech and apple pie.
John Boehner and The House keeping their no-tax pledge by saying “no” to payroll taxes…being cut.
Mubarak, Gaddafi and other tyrants thinking that cups never overflow.
Alabama chasing off illegal immigrants then having no one to pick their crops or blame for stealing migrant jobs from Americans.

I am sampling a book on my Kindle, Idiot America: How Stupidity Became a Virtue in the Land of the Free by Charles P. Pierce, and I found this quote quite funny and unfortunately true(while touring with homeschooled children and their parents, the Creationist Museum in Ohio):

“It is impolite to wonder why our parents sent us all to college, and why generations of immigrants sweated and bled so their children could be educated, if it wasn’t so that we would all one day feel confident enough to look at a museum filled with dinosaurs rigged to run six furlongs at Belmont and make the not-unreasonable point that it is all batshit crazy and that anyone who believes this righteous hooey should be kept away from sharp objects and his own money. Dinosaurs with saddles? Dinosaurs on Noah’s Ark?

Welcome to your new Eden.

Welcome to Idiot America.”

Coalition of Church and State: Rick Santorum

He is emblamatic of the entire party as it is evolving. Batshitcrazy is the new norm for them.

This situation where Santorum makes a blanket statement about blacks being on welfare and the subsequent fallout is exactly what I spoke to in the piece above. He cannot accept responsibility for his actions.

They are all dangerous for their own reasons, but I think this guy is the most scary. Who in their right mind would take a dead baby home to show their kids prior to giving it a proper burial? Both he and his wife are sick. But what is really scary about him is he has no clear understanding of what and why people make decisions. When he thinks he is right, he either refuses to concede or simply cannot apply logic to situations. The stadium situation and his living outside his district are clear examples of this.

Coalition of Church and State Revisited: Convincing The Public

My sister is involved with a Baptist church. I am going to talk to her about some of the things here to determine what “brand” she signed up with. She is a sweetie but somewhat naive. She grew up Catholic.

Here is a very good chronology of how these dominionists work their magic. In this case with Southern Baptists. They are patient as this chronology will confirm.

Thanks to Murph for bringing to my attention.

Murph
Thanks for your support.
I have heard of Yureka rpt but not the other two, will take a look. Good for that pastor, the Assemblies of God has formally dissassociated themselves with their churches who support Dominionists as well. I believe they are HQ in Missouri as well?

One thing I would add to your statement. The left has been almost forced to the table by Republicans calling them secular humanists which to their people is almost the Antichrist. There was explicitly no requirements in the Constitution for a religion attached to the office of President, for good reason. I think alot of left would leave it alone if they were not fearful of extinction as secular humanists. It is no secret that the right would like to anhillate all of the left and would if given the power.

Got over the depression and am halfway through Santorum already. I also have an idea to speak to Adonai’s questions as to how these people could implement what they want. I have to think about how to present it and get all my examples in a readable order but I am hoping it will answer the questions of people who say, “It could not happen here”

» Posted By SueInCa On December 31, 2011 @ 7:27 pm

Thanks CL for that input. I am not as well versed on SCOTUS as you are so I appreciate the help on this one.,

This Boykin fellow has been traveling to churches all over the country with this propaganda shit and gets standing ovations. The right is well known for their “boogie man under the bed” theories and he plays right in to that fear. And you should know from seeing Fox viewers post all over that evidence is not necessary to a fool who wants to believe, they can always justify their beliefs. As far as sectors I think he was referring to hospitals, doctor offices, screening centers, pharmacies you know?

Stephen Baldwin? He is a part of this group as well. A few years ago they did a money bomb for him because he was “poor” lol. He was heavily involved in the defense department prostelyzing

I am sure they would but they are not the most sophisticated voters either. Bush gave them an in to see if religious antics could get by and like I said, they do learn from their mistakes. I think they see Paul as someone who can satisfy a lot of different groups, in fact take Kelly Clarkson. She knows about the “unpleasant” aspects of Paul but is willing to overlook them because of other things he claims he stands for. He would be a zealot if he ever got in. And I believe Romney can be bought………Gingrich is a megalomaniac and a religious Catholic(charasmatic) who is already working with the dominion side. Bachman, Santorum both are RR and with Americans Elect trying to muck up the water, It Could Happen Here lol

» Posted By SueInCa On December 30, 2011 @ 4:44 pm

PS, what happened after 9/11? Alot of people turned to religion. While it was temporary, it was the opening the Bush administration needed to try their tactics. Also look at the military and the amount of prostelyzing that is going on there and around the world.

They are trying out several scenarios and are constantly learning from their mistakes. They realize the SCOTUS is very important in succeeding in their goals and they have 5 right now that are sympathetic to their movement. They are showing great restraint but there have been cracks. 2000 and the appointment of George Bush to the presidency was a huge coup for them. Americans United. Office of Faith Based Iniatives was a boondoggle as well. They are attacking Planned Parenthood, ACORN they basically shut down. They are attacking abortion rights and women;s rights in general. School and local politics as well as Alec. The best book for you to read on them is Republican Gommorah because it delves into all the shadow groups you would not think behind them, that are. Do you think for a minute Romney would not sell his soul to them in order to sit in the White House? His religion thinks they are going to be the saviors of our Constitution. Rep Gommorah is a very easy read by Max Blumenthal and it will answer alot of your questions. It is available on Kindle for a low price. Even though I have read it, I bought it to keep handy on mine. I am going to do a profile on each of the candidates, it might help to see how they could fool the American people. Also remember the Patriot Act, I am one who believes the Bushies let it happen in order to further the RR goals. What state argued and succeeded in reversing that? Think Shock Doctrine when you wonder how they could get their agenda passed.

Thanks for awhile there I was thinking about dropping the series because I was not sure it was even interesting to people after the first series. I am contemplating a piece on each of the Republican candidates, we will see. I have been dogging Americans Elect on Twitter about their 1% and CFR relations. We will see if they take the bait lol

I agree Agrippa. My goal is to keep the conversation open and active. I also want to alert people to the “signs” or “examples” of their goals as I did with DeMoss’ business. As a religious nation, our lives would be no different than oppressed people in the ME, China, N Korea or anywhere tyrants hold office.

The difference to me is that mainline or left Christians are sincerely concerned with social justice and it is right that they support and fight for it wherever it is needed. Also they don’t shove their religion in my face so I am more likely to move in that direction if I decided to attend church regularly. Also they have not been caught saying they want to implement Biblical law and take away every right women have fought for so many years to hold.

My discussion on DeMoss was added here to show what a country ruled by religious right extremists would look like. Businesses that only cater to religious people and groups? In my opinion that is their “mark of the beast” and would prove to me they are evil to the core.

“note closely what Revelation 13:17 says, “And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”

What else could a business like DeMoss’ be replicating?

» Posted By SueInCa On December 30, 2011 @ 10:57 am

Thanks Nirek. And you are right, I don’t want their religion shoved in my face nor do I want to have to live by their biblical laws.

I will keep writing. I am thinking about doing a background on each candidate in the race…………we will see. I was stunned when Matthews made that statement. I would have thrown a shoe at the TV but it is a new flat screen, maybe in a few more years.

I am with you. Thanks for the paper Madison wrote. I saved it for future reference and the way he explained it leaves no questions as to what separation of church and state really means. thanks again

Try this one Adlib wrote here, I am going to read it and see if it needs an update or will let it stand. I have a feeling Adlib pretty well covered it all.

I must have missed it somehow, I will go back and read it, thanks. I also referred Murph to it. I am going to retweet it at any case.

Yes, it is the same Byrd. I will see what I come up with.
