Tom Crouse or Tom Cruise... coincidence?? Maybe not..

Actually, this Pastor is a closet homosexual. Instead of bringing up on stage an "ex-gay", maybe he should just use that opportunity to FINALLY announce what we all have known for years.

Wow....

Well, we're pissing off the rest of the world, why not include Canada? The truly frightening issue is that right before our eyes, the USA's moral fibers - and I'm speaking of separation of church and state, free speech, honest news reporting, respectable foreign policy - are deteriorating, slowly and surely. By the time this administration is done, there will be such a mess in this country, as well as the rest of the world, that no democratic (or independant) administration could fix in just four years. (well, maybe if Hillary breaks out her Wonder Woman outfit, complete with truth lasso, invisble plane and bullet deflecting wrist cuffs.)

Original article: Colbert's smart bomb

AMEN ! BRAVO !! GENIUS !!!

Colbert's smart bomb is the best thing I've seen, read and/or heard in decades! As Colbert himself puts it, that took, "mucho grande huevos". Two things to consider here - number one: That took BALLS !! To stand three feet away from Chimpie, look him in the eye OFTEN, all the while tearing him a new ass, as well as doing it in front of the Press Corp, while they, too, get their asses handed to them is nothing short of a miracle !! Number two: to do it in such a manner that not only comfuses Chimpie (not that it's difficult to do) but shocks the Press Corp as well as Chimpie into giving Colbert a rounding applause after so eloquently destroying them is nothing short of pure genius. Stephen Colbert, I nominate you to be our next President of the United States of America!

Rotten Tomatoes

Nice to see that the Bush Propaganda Machine (B.P.M.) hasn't lost a single beat, especially now, when USAToday/Gallup poll has Mr. Bush's approval rating at an all time low of 31%. When "Chimpie" is impeached next year after the democrats win control of the Senate and the House and all of his propaganda methods are exposed to the average, FOX watching, CNN listening "joe", 51% of the USA will no doubt have to hang it's collective head in shame, as the Bush Administration's rule will go down as one of the worst periods in this country's political history - well, except for the Christian conservatives, who welcome their Texan "prophet" as a messenger of God to convert all Islamic nations to Christianity, at ANY cost.

God help us all....

Once again....

..."Chimpie" is completely clueless, as usual. Regardless of the fact that he has NO IDEA how to run anything, let alone a government, a war, a business (all, which by the way, have failed or are failing), what really baffles me is the hypocrisy of his 31% supporters. They are so stuck on "Chimpie" that they are simply choosing to ignore the dangerous facts that have been proven over and over and OVER again. Even the "spineless" media is now FINALLY beginning to do the math, put the pieces together.

Iran is next, except the problem now is that we are so indebted to other countries(Britian, China, Japan) that if they don't want us to go to war, they can call in their debts and our country will suffer economic disaster.

Thanks to George W. Bush and his puppeteers, the United States of America is in the worst possible position in history. This scenario reminds me of a popular phrase, "...how the mighty have fallen".

Ladies and gentlemen, our future is in serious jeopardy.

Original article: Mary Cheney and the F-bomb

Like Father, Like Son...

If I were the vice presidents daughter (and I'm not), I would have to agree that, all things being equal (well, except for the rights of tax-paying, gay Americans), I wouldn't like my "orientation" being thrown around the political pulpit, either. Especially from the Democratic party of today, which can't assemble itself to lead even in our current climate of Republican corruption, lies, greed, selfishness, you know - all the things that make Republicans, well, Republican. Still, we all need to treat each other the way we want to be treated.

All I know, as a Gay American, is that it's probably going to go against the "right-wing grain" if I were to record a version of the National Anthem sung with an effeminate "lisp".

"Fasten your seat belts..."

It's true. Bad things do happen in 3's.

Original article: Going long for Jesus

Enough is enough...

F.Y.I., Justin C. and all the other right wingers out there who may be "listening"...

If it weren't for the theocratic, political climate that exists today, as well as how the extreme fundamental religious right has attached itself like a parasite onto the Republican party, forcing their "religious", hate-filled views on everyone of us in the USA (and Middle East) via political puppets escorted into public office due to manipulation, fear and trickery, as well as the controlled, spineless media, your so called "libs" wouldn't be so defensive.

A word of advice from someone who considers himself a moderate; live your life the way you see fit. Pray all you want to whomever you want. Don't have an abortion if you are against it. Don't marry a homosexual if you don't like homosexuals. But stay out of the lives of others. Stop trying to force your will on others who pay taxes and love this country. Stop accusing others of promoting an agenda, when it's you who are promoting your so-called, "Christian" aganda, which by the way is as un-Christian as it gets.

Read your Bible-stop twisting it! Remember what Jesus said about false prophets? Remember what Jesus said about tolerance and loving thy neighbor? Remember his words about "judgement"? Fear, hate, intolerance all lead to Hell. Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, Kirk Cameron, Fred Phelps, Focus on the Family, Concerned Women for America and the rest of the right-wing lunatics will no doubtedly, according to Jesus, be keeping ol' Satan plenty of company for an eternity.

Enough is enough....
