Mike's Blog Round Up

By Bluegal aka Fran

Cajun Boy: It's sad to think McCain has more houses that I have open tabs in Firefox. Diamond John McCain also owns more homes than Tom Cruise and Paris Hilton combined. (sorry for that visual.) But maybe he didn't hear right and thought they were asking about his combs.

The Dianetics Racing Team

By John Amato

"The Church of Scientology is gearing up to bring its message to a whole new arena: racing fans. "Ignite Your Potential" is the mantra Scientology uses to get Tom Cruise and other Hollywood celebs jumping up and down. Now that message will be used to fuel the engines of a new NASCAR race team.

The venture is called "The Dianetics Racing Team," named after the bestselling self-help book written by the movement's founder, science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard...read on"

Somehow I don't think this match will work.

Learning to be okay

By John Amato
Over the three years I've been on medication for depression I've heard milder variations of the kind of invective Tom Cruise is throwing around. It's always couched in incredibly hostile terms, as if my treatment is a personal affront to others' beliefs. It's always judgmental, as most discussion about depression is: that it's my fault, that it's a behavioral problem, that I needed to change how I slept or worked or acted in order to be acceptable to others. It's always personal: I don't need drugs, why do you? What's wrong with YOU? When my dog died, I was bummed, sure, but I snapped out of it. Why couldn’t YOU?
Building a Theocracy, One State at a Time Welcome to Gilead
I just learned about the Ohio Restoration Project, an organization whose stated objective is "to see 2,000 Ohio Patriot Pastors who understand the sacred trust of this moment in history and who are mobilized to make a difference by the close of the 2006 election cycle." The Project hopes to achieve this objective by creating, funding, and operating "a public information program for pastors and the Christian community" focusing on "Marriage, Right to Life, Educational Choice, Taxes, Employment, and other Value Voter Issues:"

According to the website, "Patriot Pastors will pray, inform, and equip the Christian community to be engaged in the 2006 elections." How will they do this, you ask? Aside from praying and volunteering, each Patriot Pastor will also be required to "Register at least 300 New Voters able to shine a light for Godly candidates in the 2006 election cycle."

This is more disturbing evidence of the fundamentalists' attempt to create a theocracy in this country. However, even many Christians are upset by this blatant attempt to equate government with religion. Kos Read More...

Tom Cruise

By John Amato

Tom Cruise criticized NBC ''Today'' show host Matt Lauer on Friday when Lauer mentioned Cruise's earlier criticism of Brooke Shields for taking anti-depressants. Cruise told Lauer he didn't know what he was talking about. ''You don't know the history of psychiatry. I do,'' Cruise said.

I wasn't going to post on him, but after I read this interview that DC Media Girl has where he says:

Cruise: I’m a helper. For instance, I myself have helped hundreds of people get off drugs. In Scientology, we have the only successful drug rehabilitation program in the world. It’s called Narconon.

SPIEGEL: That’s not correct. Yours is never mentioned among the recognized detox programs. Independent experts warn against it because it is rooted in pseudo science.

Cruise: You don’t understand what I am saying. It’s a statistically proven fact that there is only one successful drug rehabilitation program in the world. Period."

Then watching him with Lauer I couldn't help myself. (memo to publicist/sister: keep him away) I'm sure Tom's been studing with Bill Frist because hey...if Frist can use a video tape to make a diagnosis, I guess Tom can treat cancer with Flintstone chewables. Maybe Tom Delay can be helped by Cruise on that other problem. ( see video below )

(Update): Jeralyn askes: What is it With Tom Cruise and Drugs? Tom Cruise is actually doing us all a favor. He's doing more to drive people from Scientology than all the proselytizing against it ever could....read on
