Apparently unnamed Repug Senators have been stopping Judiciary Committee hearings on a technicality.

Democracy in action!!!

On religion, headline...."God promotes genocide and aggressive warfare in Bible" also "Everyone must get Stoned" if you follow the

letter of the law in the Old Testament"

Yes indeed nothing like "serving the public" before ones self which they we're "hired" to do.

Focusing on this fear of what may happen will not help Obama get elected. As we have all seen in the aftermath of 9/11 the quickest way to move this country in the wrong direction is to scare the shit out of it.

When the GOP says something like, Obama is fear mongering probably laughing is more effective at this point then lowering to their level and returning it.

Right wingers will be bitter and cling to guns and such all

As one who opposses guns i have to say i really do not care if people want to own them. It can be fairly argued that the Constitution permits it. If at some point an amendment to the Constitution that would clarify exactly the intent of our founders or exactly the intent of of our contemporaries is passed that makes it a right in clear language or takes away the right in clear language the point is moot. I have not heard any candidate talk about abridging this right. I can only hope that more people choose, as i do, not to own or use one.

While i think it is possible some people on the right may fullfill their threats to commit acts of violence if Obama is elected i think it is counter productive to give them credibility by fretting over it. How much support will they have if they blow up a building at this juncture? If one starts snipping at people from a rooftop will people flock to their cause?

I doubt it. In fact it will have the opposiste effect and people who may be sympathetic to them now may well be turned off entirely.

WARNING to all groups out there that plan on demonstrating:
Watch for the types in your group that want violence during protests...they may be an agent provacateur to play into the hands of Riot Control and give a reason to shut down the protests. Remember all those dirty tricks in '68...

The extremist right went into remission, largely, with the election of George W. Bush; militias disbanded because their followers believed the threat of an oppressive, gun-grabbing, baby-killing "New World Order" had largely passed.

The extremes of Bushco past present and future (McBush), is beyond what the any nanny state Librul would have enacted.
No Democratic president would have let the victims of Katrina suffer as Chimpy did and so many of them still are, scattered far from their homes. No Democrat would have let the housing market collapse like Bushco, and jobs evaporate so madly.
Bushco and his international friends in oil and outsourcing are the the NWO, no mistake there.

They are ALWAYS there in every major demonstration.

ALWAYS.

Easy as cake. Oldest tactic since Reagan. Dress up a bunch of agents with fake tattoos, baseball caps, goatees and baggies, and Dem 08 buttons and start sh*t.

Sketch up a piece for Drudge and the MSM saying, Democrat violence in streets. Rush and Hannity follow up with ...."see we told you folks, the Democrats are violent intolerant hooligans with no respect for the safety of children and families or private or government property."

You don’t have to convice most officers that people are basically evil. ( Romans 3:10) They already know that. They see it every day. Many theories point to poor education, poverty, and population density as the causes of crime. The Bible, however, shows us that sin in the human heart is the fundamental problem in all of us. And because it is the sin nature within every human which often results in criminal activity, virtually everyone in society is seen by the law enforcement officer as a potential “enemy.”

I've always wondered how the steroided LE thugs who taser a 6YO boy into fouling his pants, or bends a slight 15YO girl over a desk and twists and breaks her wrist, goes home and tells his wife and kids what they did.

"hi honey, I.m home, guess what I did at work today! chuckle chuckle"

The next time you walk into a convenience store and there is an officer there, say hello. Nine times out of ten you won't even get a response.

thats sad, the ones here in Southern MN are friendly.

Interesting Billo is a radical greenie,

Man, isn't that a load of post-pastoralist bullshit?!? I'd like to know that organization's definition of evil. Is someone who drives while under the influence evil? If I get pulled over for a burned-out turn signal, and a cop writes me a repair-and-report ticket, should I go directly to the confessional? Should I start in on the rosary before I even talk to my confessor?

L.A. Confidential @ 7:

How is it possible in a place like America that someone like Nancy Pelosi can be in a position to demonstrate to an obtuse and indifferent population that hypocrisy and sanctimonious preening are now the trademarks of fair and able dealing?

Thats a good question.

She's taking the easy route by practicing what was established by the republicans prior to her tenure. I swear our leadership gets lazier everyday, and those politicians that are truly trying to get things done are considered fanatical. We as Americans need to wake up and do something. Unfortunately Pelosi will be back in office next year, and what will she offer with a new president? We'll find out.

You need to ask yourself Andy K Jong if what you are doing is actually in excess. If you just got pulled over for a DUI, chances are it's not your first time. I've been fortunate in my life to have only one DWI, there's times I don't remember getting home. That one DWI was a stiff lesson and a wake up call. Regardless, police have a difficult task in discerning who is there to help them, and who wants to destroy their investigations. I can't blame them for looking at everybody with both eyes. There's alot of people that discuss killing cops, beating them, and going after their families. I would be somewhat suspicious of people myself. I'm not a cop, and if you have a certain look in your eye as I come near you, my defenses are ready. Maybe it's human nature.

For those that keep referring to the old testament, that was the old covenant that god mad with the Israelites. Jesus made a new covenant which isn't quite as unpleasant.

Seems like you and I have had similar battles with the bottle, Pawn. But I don't see diseases as evil.

And I don't want to presume that God was angry with anyone, or that he sent Jesus to write a new contract. Revealed religion is nothing but an tool to mystically codify the arbitrary rules of Agrarian Culture. If the few remaining pastoralist and hunter/gatherer societies remaining on Earth teach us anything it is that our concept of evil springs from Agrarian Culture.

But I'm starting to go way OT. If you want to know what I'm getting at, follow the link embedded in my handle.

According to the Catholic religion lay people like Jindal aren't permitted to perform exorcisms. That makes the guy a heretic.
