Earlier, in conversation about the geese that God sent to fly over Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor Rally,” JJ commented, “How about a flock of mama grizzly bears dressed all in white, sobbing penitent man-tears for their country?” She dared me to photoshop what that might look like. I thought about it… and thought about it some more, [...]

I’m having trouble finding good links to this story, so I’ll just have to rely on what I’ve managed to piece together so far. Here it is. Glenn Beck really, really wanted Air Force fighters to fly over his Restoring Honor rally, but they couldn’t (or wouldn’t) do it. Of course, you know God; he’s such a [...]

I did. The drive was too long. But, fortunately, here in California we’re having an even bigger freak show, in our capital city of Sacramento, this weekend. If you can’t make it, you can get a taste of what you’re missing here: . If you can make it, but need some coaxing to justify the time, effort and expense, here’s [...]

Recently I blogged about H.CON.RES.274, the latest attempt by our nation’s Christian Elite to impose their religious beliefs, disguised in ”heritage” doublespeak, on the rest of us. In Clearing the calendar for Christianism, I also casually mentioned that the crazies at American Family Association had issued an “action alert” – and offered an online tool with which you could contact your congress member about the bill. I thought [...]
Apologia, my Aunt Fanny!

Oh. My. God. How embarrassing. Lill: I just dropped by to see whether I get the same Xtian home schooling curricula ads on your page that I get on my page. Apologia, my Aunt Fanny! (So, I asked her if I had ads on mine, too.) Lill: Well, you do. They’re having a sale on Apologia [...]

First they came for the…, then they came for heretics, then coloreds, then working women, then Hollywood, then homosexuals, then academic elites, then liberal media, then Obamaism, then anchor babies, then mosque builders,.. then recipients of unemployment insurance benefits? I don’t get the GOP strategy of insulting our “new poor” who receive unemployment insurance benefits. The program has gone from being a “safety net to a hammock” (Steve [...]

“Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as everyone else in this country.” ~Barack Obama But Muslim isn’t a religion. It’s more like a nationality, way of life, or cult, whatever you want to call it. The Islams want become dominant and take over. ~Religious freedom Christian elites And, uh, whadd’ya say we mosey o’er to [...]

It’s so nice that nothing important is going on in the United States right now that our elected representatives have time to spend on imposing their religious beliefs on others, including schoolchildren. H.CON.RES.274 Title: Reaffirming “In God We Trust” as the official motto of the United States and supporting and encouraging the public display of [...]
