Georgie Porgie Puddin' Pie declared a war upon a lie.
All his cowboy buddies then sent young men to die in sin.
They sent their business big and small to pillage, plunder and steal it all.
Sadam was wanted "Alive or Dead" and blame his death on Iraq instead.
And imperialist Christians want to pull the plug but won't admit George is a common thug.

T'was the night before Christmas and all through the south
The Rednecks were drinking and trashing their house.
The Beer was all placed in their coolers with care
In hopes that their thinking would soon not be there.
When all of the sudden there arose such a fuss,
Billy Bob and Betty Sue had started to cuss.
"Your shirt and your bra are unbuttoned, undone!"
Billy Bob shouted, "Your cousin's a BUM!"
"How could you, you bitch?", he hollered with glee.
"You're screwin' your cousin and married to me!"
"Oh, go screw your mother, you self-righteous prick!
You're still just my brother, and HE's got a DICK!
Our kids are retarded, I can't even cook!
And our family tree hasn't even a crook!
If you were a man, you'd marry another -
Woman to beat on, and I don't mean your mother!"
They staggered outside and started to fight,
Then she pulled a gun and he pulled a knife.
The cousin fell in and yelled, "What's all the ruckus?
I come here to party, now, come on and fuck us!"
Then they all went to bed, Betty Sue in the middle.
When the new baby came who was father's a riddle.
As they drank all the beer and began losing sight,
T'was a redneck Christmas, Don't reality bite!

I went to vote yesterday morning. I voted against the 35 Circuit Judge in MO, Stephen Sharp. I also voted against Steve Sokolof, the current prosecutor in our county.Granted, they are the only names on the ballot for these positions. But the reason I voted against these two individuals is that they not only did not prosecute a child molester for raping his own daughter, as the MO Department of Family Services found in an investigation and upheld by a citizens review panel.(His father is a retired cop in Arkansas). But they also allowed the child molester to take full custody of his son when his mother objected to this. But the MO Secretary of State shows that Sharp took a clean sweep of all votes! I feel that it is important for the record to show that there was at least one dissenter and that it was not a clean sweep. This just verifies to me that this county is crooked, dirty, and deceitful.This U.S. government is nothing but a sham!

The potential medical benefits to be derived from stem cell research far outweigh the dangers regarding the possibility of human cloning. In fact, the only objection I can think of personally to human cloning is the possibility of cloning George W. Bush or virtually any of the members of the 109th Congress, Republicans, and Christian Evangelicals. Just think, they COULD clone more of the few middle class that are left and the lower class to go to Iraq to stop bullets!
Just a thought....

Beside the fact that the American people are only given basically to groups of morons to choose from to run this country, a subject which I intend to expand on in a later post, Republicans claiming that the Democrats do not have one or simply wish to "cut and run" is simply propaganda and libelous slander. They have been rendered impotent by the current Congress and White House. Excluded from discussions on the subject, forced to vote on legislation that they have had mere minutes to examine, and out right stone walling by the Commander and Chimp and legislative majorities has created an air in Washington in which whatever Democrats say about virtually any subject goes unheard. Why should they even suggest anything? Firstly, as Bush wouldn't tell anyone if he had a strategy, which he clearly does not, for fear of informing the "enemy", if the Dems revealed a viable one, the Pubies would claim it as theirs and take credit for it.
If anyone were paying attention at the time, the so called "Shock and Awe" campaign turned out to be a fizzle and fart. And it became the defining moment when they dropped the ball by taking their eye off the prize! We were suppose to be hunting down Osama Bin Laden and his cohorts.
The simple fact is that Bush failed as an oil tycoon in Texas and took his frustration out on Texas Death Row inmates. But The killing fields in Texas were simply too small to satisfy his blood lust. So, he sent our troops to one of the richest oil fields in the world to kill the owners of the oil while his corporate buddies at Haliburton trucked the oil out as fast as they could.
Call it eminent domain.

Personally, I could care less were it not for the fact that he leads the charge in the Evangelical anti-gay rights movement. The hypocrisy of conservatives is simply mind boggling! They claim to support small government, yet they want to tell people they don't even know what they can and cannot do in and out of the privacy of their own homes. When will Christianity realize that absolute power corrupts absolutely?
These glaring examples of pride and vanity care only about what feels good to them at the moment and lining their pockets with money handed them freely based upon their lies and deception.

President Bush responded to the question if they had enough troops on the ground in Iraq with, "They've got what they can live with."
They've got what they can live with?! What the hell is that suppose to mean? They are dying every freaking day! And it is clearly spiraling out of control. We have even been reduced to taking our orders there from the fledgling Iraqi government who is clearly taking their cues from Muktada al Sadir.
Our commander and chimp acts like a bully on the play ground insisting that his is the only way when it is clear to everyone on the play ground that his way is wrong. He thinks that if he just continues to insist that he is right that everyone will eventually see it his way!
And speaking of bullies, how about the body slam that the law student got for asking Allen a question! I hope that everyone see's the new Republican party for what it is: a bunch of spoiled rich boys who believe that they can do anything they want and resort to physical violence when someone says or does something that they don't like.
And the polls suggest that the upcoming election races are close. I am almost ashamed to be an American! Someone should be ashamed of something!

How our national legislature has become a stable of thieves and perverts -- in five easy steps .
By Matt Taibbi
10/31/06 "Rolling Stone" -- -- There is very little that sums up the record of the U.S. Congress in the Bush years better than a half-mad boy-addict put in charge of a federal commission on child exploitation. After all, if a hairy-necked, raincoat-clad freak like Rep. Mark Foley can get himself named co-chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children, one can only wonder: What the hell else is going on in the corridors of Capitol Hill these days?
These past six years were more than just the most shameful, corrupt and incompetent period in the history of the American legislative branch. These were the years when the U.S. parliament became a historical punch line, a political obscenity on par with the court of Nero or Caligula -- a stable of thieves and perverts who committed crimes rolling out of bed in the morning and did their very best to turn the mighty American empire into a debt-laden, despotic backwater, a Burkina Faso with cable.
To be sure, Congress has always been a kind of muddy ideological cemetery, a place where good ideas go to die in a maelstrom of bureaucratic hedging and rank favor-trading. Its whole history is one long love letter to sleaze, idiocy and pigheaded, glacial conservatism. That Congress exists mainly to misspend our money and snore its way through even the direst political crises is something we Americans understand instinctively. "There is no native criminal class except Congress," Mark Twain said -- a joke that still provokes a laugh of recognition a hundred years later.
But the 109th Congress is no mild departure from the norm, no slight deviation in an already-underwhelming history. No, this is nothing less than a historic shift in how our democracy is run. The Republicans who control this Congress are revolutionaries, and they have brought their revolutionary vision for the House and Senate quite unpleasantly to fruition. In the past six years they have castrated the political minority, abdicated their oversight responsibilities mandated by the Constitution, enacted a conscious policy of massive borrowing and unrestrained spending, and installed a host of semipermanent mechanisms for transferring legislative power to commercial interests. They aimed far lower than any other Congress has ever aimed, and they nailed their target.
"The 109th Congress is so bad that it makes you wonder if democracy is a failed experiment," says Jonathan Turley, a noted constitutional scholar and the Shapiro Professor of Public Interest Law at George Washington Law School. "I think that if the Framers went to Capitol Hill today, it would shake their confidence in the system they created. Congress has become an exercise of raw power with no principles -- and in that environment corruption has flourished. The Republicans in Congress decided from the outset that their future would be inextricably tied to George Bush and his policies. It has become this sad session of members sitting down and drinking Kool-Aid delivered by Karl Rove. Congress became a mere extension of the White House."

Well folks, Congress and the White House have been feeding us camel dung for six years and now the Pentagon wants to start spinning their stories! I thought that the military swore to defend the Constitution, not win votes. We shouldn't be surprised, though. Neo-con, corporate Christianity has bought everything and everyone else in this once great land. Why shouldn't our military have a selling price, too. http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/10/31/pentagon.pr/index.html
We don't even own our own voting machines! When we sell our elections, it should be of no surprise that our Constitution Protectors sell out, too.
Incidentally, I'm sick and tired of having my patriotism questioned! "Do you want to win..." is insulting! My question to these morons is, how many young men and women do you have to send to their death before you decide to pick a strategy that works?

So, it seems that some people really would like to have a black Jesus. OK, all right. We might as well throw that into the mix. It certainly wouldn't be the first thing that Christianity has gotten wrong. It seems that the debates in Christianity never end. Christians spend more time bickering and arguing between one another than any other faith. It's ridiculous.
It is well documented that Jesus of Nazareth was of Hebrew descent. He was descended from Jacob and from Abraham. We have no clear statement that I'm aware of in historical evidence that states that this line humans was not of color. However, we can be certain that the members of this race were easily identifiable and distinguishable from the other inhabitants of the area in which they resided, being the Middle East, as the entire race was taken into slavery in Egypt and in Babylon. It is an evolutionary fact that beings adapt to their environment. and their pigmentation may very well have darkened to some degree as a result of their environment. It is argued that their race was diluted while in exile from the Holy Land. And this may very well be so but as a race they were still very much distinguishable from the other inhabitants of land. We know this because they were exiled again and in a much more permanent manner. They more less went to the wind and spread throughout the world during their last exile.
But we do have historical evidence that this race, the Hebrew race, remained very tight and exclusionary when it came to mixing with other races in their final exile. In fact, it is apparent that they had assistance in remaining pure during the last 2000 years as historical evidence shows that the Hebrew race was generally disdained by others.
So, the debates as to what color Jesus of Nazareth was some is purely one of speculation gone awry.
A wonderful spiritualist Jew once said in regard to Jesus, " don't get so hung up on the messenger that you miss the message ". And it appears to me in this debate that this is exactly what everyone has done.
Jesus of Nazareth came here to this earth to speak specifically to the Hebrew race, and then to anyone who would listen, to say that there was no need for an intermediary between a person and their creator. His message was unmistakable in that the priesthood was unnecessary and had it been corrupted with power. Yet, very early in the Christian church history the so-called followers of Jesus turned their hearts and minds over to church leaders, the very people that Jesus came to debunk. Pastors, Deacons, and priests were again given free rein to stand between them and their creator.
And a Christian High priest named Ananias claimed that Jesus came to him in a vision or dream and told him that Saul of Tarsus was their new high priest. And thus established the new hierarchy of leadership and politicization of Christianity. (And let us not forget that the Christian Killer, Saul of Tarsus, is credited with writing this account!)
So, if you want to argue about something that matters, why don't you argue that more time is spent concentrating on the instructions of Christian priests than on what Jesus himself taught. After all, he did say that the priesthood was an unnecessary and corrupt.
And really, what difference does it make what color he was?

I have pointed out inconsistencies in the words of George Bush and his cronies and in point accused him of cyber attacks on the American people. It is clear to me now that he actually could have very little to do with this kind of monitoring. He has recently admitted that he uses " the google" on "the internets". This leads me to believe that it is highly unlikely that hi tech surveillance is outside of his realm of comprehension.
This deduction can only mean that he has an army of Nazi's who bring these things to his attention and do the dirty work (constitutional violations) for him with his approval.
I ask you, is it truly endearing to have an ignorant psychopath as your commander in chief?

The Nazi neo-cons have ramped up their attack on Amendment 2, The Stem Cell Research initiative. And it's not surprising that they collected a group of athletes to speak to their target audience, sports fanatics. This moronic section of our population will believe anything they are told by an athlete for the simple reason that if they can read at all, they are too damned lazy to.
There is one athlete who says something to the effect, "...in the 2000 words that you don't read, this amendment constitutionally protects and guarantees human cloning."
The third item in the amendment is pasted below:
"(1) No person may clone or attempt to clone a human being."
Further on in the draft it goes on to delineate criminal prosecution for anyone who violates this condition.
This is just another example of the Nazi's gambit that the American public is just plain ignorant and lazy and will believe their blatant lies out of pure lethargy.
Here is the link to the Secretary of State's page that has the draft amendment for anyone who can read.

Our peerless leader has been confronted with a parallel of sorts concerning the length of time of our presence in the Middle East and the length of time it took us to win World War Two. His response to this question is the same confusing double talk with which he traditionally responds to any question in which his tactical record is brought into question.
In this particular instance he veils the current war effort in a diatribe which alleges that the professed enemies have no clear demarcation of battle lines. And he repeatedly insists that these indefinable battle lines are exist in Iraq and Afghanistan. This in an of itself shows his intent to confuse and mislead the people. If, as he insists, the enemy's battle lines cannot be defined, how can he assert that Iraq and Afghanistan are indeed the war front?
He repeatedly insists that if his general's request additional troops that he will send them. Yet, we repeatedly here his generals stating clearly that they do not have the manpower to accomplish the mission.
In World War Two we pulled out all the stops. We assembled all of our resources and those of our allies together and attacked and overcame the adversary in that war. The difference between the current conflict and that one is that we have never concerted all our efforts into an overwhelming assault force and engaged the adversaries with clear intent to annihilate them.
Again, Mr. Bush, why don't you just shut up. Every time you open your mouth you become less credible. Not all of Americans are complete and total idiots. Just the ones in your pocket, the Christians, and NASCAR and wrestling fans are.

benchmark, bench mark. (Surveying) 1. Any permanent mark to which other levels may be referred. such as: (a) A horizontal mark at the water's edge with reference to which the height of tides and floods may be measured. (b) a surveyer's mark on a permanent object of predetermined position and elevation used as a reference point.
2. something serving as a standard by which related items may be judged; as, his painting sets the benchmark of quality.
3. a test or series of tests designed to compare the qualities or performance of different devices of the same type. Certain sets of computer programs are much used as benchmarks for comparing the performance of different computers, especially by comparing the time it takes to complete a test.
Time"-ta`ble (?), n. 1. A tabular statement of the time at which, or within which, several things are to take place, as the recitations in a school, the departure and arrival of railroad trains or other public conveyances, the rise and fall of the tides, etc.
2. (Railroad) A plane surface divided in one direction with lines representing hours and minutes, and in the other with lines representing miles, and having diagonals (usually movable strings) representing the speed and position of various trains.
3. (Mus.) A table showing the notation, length, or duration of the several notes.
Semantics really frustrate thinking people. Of course, we know that with his mealy mouthed double talk he is hoping that the majority of his audience are illiterate morons, the same stupid fucks that put him in office twice.

Well folks, if we weren't sure of it before we can be absolutely convinced now. Big Brother is indeed watching every move we make. So, a 16 year-old girl places a parody political commentary on her web site and jackbooted Nazi thugs yank her out of school, interrogate heard her as if she were an enemy of the state, and topped the cake by threatening her with felony charges, stating that they don't have the liberty not to take these things seriously.
From my point of view, a great deal of law enforcement could be enacted and threats to national security and rights and civil liberties of the American people be quelled if they would simply prosecute the felonious criminals in the White House and in Congress.
I would not have been surprised if this young girl had cried, " I was under the influence and I was molested as a child! I don't need jail, I need treatment. "
The two-party system spends the bulk of its efforts fomenting fear among on American public and tracking down and threatening anyone who disagrees with them. And the law makers continue to break the law on an almost daily basis.
It is my fervent belief that the upcoming election will change little the manner in which our Government has become accustomed to treating its subjects. Until they clean their own house, how can they presume to question the actions and motives of another?
The sociopathic Bush will never be tried for his complicity and direction in war crimes. Members of Congress will never be tried and punished for crimes ranging from embezzlement and the selling of their vote to racketeering and child molestation. But they will spend every penny required to track down and terrorize a 16 year-old child for speaking her mind.
Shame on the Nazi-neocons! And shame on the people for allowing these criminals to continue in their felonious enterprises! Perhaps if America would punish the current criminals in the White House and in Congress and elect representatives that are not criminal and are not offensive to 80% of the World, we would see less sentiments on the web and in print of the kind that this innocent young girl posted!
All I can say is that this criminal, Bush, must wear Kevlar Armani's! If he doesn't, maybe he should. We all know that he will never be prosecuted!

On the Two-party System
It seems to me that the vast majority of Americans are political illiterates. There is no excuse for ignorance concerning the men and women whose daily choices affect every aspect of American life. I have watched for six years as the American media kowtowed to the current administration and praised virtually every move they made. We have all seen their spin and manipulation of the masses through the media. And of late we have all become aware of this administration's propensity to infringe upon the rights of American citizens with unwarranted wiretaps, scrutiny and analyzing of Internet Web searches with all the major search engines, secret prisons, and wanton disregard for the plight of lower and middle class.
The last time that we had a situation in the political landscape of America that resembled what we have now was in 1994 when voters swung the political pendulum in a landslide vote for the other institution that has failed miserably at representing the will of the people as well. At that time it was not so much who the voters were voting for as it was who they were voting against. But what is the point and voting for the lesser of two evils? Why can't we vote for someone we like, for someone whom we believe will actually represent our concerns in the seat of power?
When the two institutions, Democrat and Republican, conspired together to exclude any and all other candidates from open debates, they effectively muted the voices of dissenting opinions and tightened their cloak of secrecy on the public. New ideas and directions became a thing of the past. With no one else on the stump raising issues, the two parties could control the information being fed to the masses.
I repeatedly find myself drifting back to the movie, "Network ", where the masses were instructed to toss their televisions out of their windows and scream, " I'm madder than hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore!" Ah, of the simplicity of television. Unfortunately, there is no stump from which any speaker can speak to address the masses on subjects which matter to them and bring them together in unity. Divisiveness is the greatest tool the Republicans and Democrats hold over the masses.
I hear a lot of talk about sending a clear message to Washington D.C. during this election. I am not a libertarian, however, it seems to me that if a message were indeed what needed to be sent, it would be a message to both parties by replacing them with someone else. And could anyone else do a worse job?
The last two administrations have shown us, if we look closely, that one group cares nothing about the health and welfare of its people, propagates war, and simply won't talk to people they don't like. The other group has shown us that they're lacking in morals and discretion. Of course, that could be said about both parties. And they point at each other calling each other names and making accusations. The simple fact is that they are both a-moral. Why are there so few of us that actually get that?
I perused the voting records of every senator and representative in my state and found that there is not one, no not one, that has ever voted my conscience on any issue. And they've had two decades to get it least one thing right. I venture to say that if information on incumbent voting records and attendance were made available at polling places that one of two things would happen. There would be much less incumbency or we would all throw our televisions out of the window!
So, why don't we have that kind of information available at the polling places? Could it be that the two-party system has already realized the danger in reporting their record?

I'd like to make the observation that the president of the United States has recently been citing his administration's objections on the Islamic caliphate. Very few people in this country, indeed in Christianity, understand what the caliphate is. For Christianity to defy and deny the caliphate is the same to them as them defying and denying the pope to Christianity. The caliphate defines Islamic law in the same way the pope defines Christian law. So, any approach to this situation which does not include the caliphate's existence is not only culturally insensitive but is also naive and unrealistic.
The succession of the caliphate is what the majority of sectarian violence between the Sunni's in the Shia's has always been about. And no one can tell me that the establishment of the Vatican and the Pope was not a bloody stain on Christian history. When that travesty of justice to mankind took place, Christianity had free rein in the world to establish the prevailing view of its hierarchy within its own system. Today, a so-called secular " Superpower ", which by the way proudly proclaims Christianity to be its guiding conscience, if you will, feels the right to step in and settled this dispute by denying the caliphate completely. They know that the general public does not understand what the caliphate is and try to obscure the issue by lumping it into terroristic activity.
Monotheism as whole has completely missed the mark on the issue of spirituality. They try to cloak spirituality with religion which is by definition dogmatic and intolerant. This very intolerance is what fuels the unification of the clashing parties against the forces that deny the issue that is at the very core of their belief. Christians against Christians, Muslims against Muslims, Christians against Muslims, and Muslims against Christians. Infighting, bitterness, human-rights violations, and murder all in the name of God.
When any party refuses to acknowledge the core fundamental beliefs of the people, and refuses to sit down at the table to discuss their differences without condition can yield very little influence on people who are fighting for their core beliefs. And how could they?
The issue of the caliphate is going to have to be settled within the Islamic community. Of course, this negotiation should be facilitated in any way possible and the parties exhorted to settle their differences without violence.
This so-called war on terrorism is reminiscent of the war on drugs. All flash and little or no substance. It is simply a rallying cry to keep the audience in fear and supportive and to keep the money flowing. Terrorism, on the other hand, could be called a war on a capitalist corporatism that invades and occupies the homes of innocent people for political and material gain. I am certain that those " innocent people " who have lost so much wishes that all of the warring parties would just go home and let them live their lives. Capitalist corporatism has no constituent save its' investor and the bottom dollar.
It is clear that the vast majority of parties in Christianity and Islam abhor the use of murder and destruction by anyone. When all parties of aggression get inline with this idea, the stage will be set for real progress towards peace.
The real aggressor in all this is corporate capitalism. Corporate capitalism, much like the United States government, has little or no system of accountability for failed policies and for the actions of its leaders. And the hopes, dreams and fears of people is their greatest weapon. Common people have no representation between warring parties. But they always pay the heaviest price.

And there you have it! Further evidence that the neo-con, neo-fascists are nothing more than closeted perverts that would rather not face the truth on ANY subject. This guy was suppose to be a 'top cop' and lawmaker to crack down on the exploitation of children on the internet. But he is a predator his self.
This is a reminder of the FACT that Stoddard and Dunklin Counties of the State of Missouri gave full custody of a child to a man who "inserted his penis" into his own four year old daughter. The very people who found him guilty of this sick behavior are the ones who gave him a retarded child to do with what he may.
And this all in "the Bible Belt", the heart and core of Christian Fundamentalism. Come on America! When are you going to come to terms with your own sickness? Until you admit to yourselves that the philosophy by which you live turns a blind eye to its own inadequacies, you will continue to be hated and feared throughout the world. And rightly so!
Your sanctimony has you believe that you are always right and that your way is the only way.
In my humble opinion, Christianity itself is the root of your disease! And you can't even agree on your own religion! Christian Capitalism is just plain sick.

The creators of the Matrix Trilogy have made another scorcher of an editorial on the corruption of the power of mass manipulation! However, this one is much more obvious in the target of its scorn. Symbolism is used thoroughly and effectively in its finger pointing.
The movie is set in London. If it had been set in Washington D.C., as the implication of its critique was obvious by the attitudes of the fictitious leaders, this movie would never have reached the screen.
Modified Christian crosses, total control of information to the masses, and the fomentation of fear as their primary weapon against 'free thinking' depicts a regime which becomes rich by covertly attacking its own people and then presenting themselves as the salvation of the people and controlling their every movement and thought in the name of the peoples' own security.
An excellent fictitious representation of reality. Pure entertainment with a potent message of awareness.

Audit: Bush's Billion-Dollar a Year Reading Program Beset by Favoritism, Mismanagement
WASHINGTON Sep 22, 2006 (AP)— A scorching internal review of the Bush administration's billion-dollar-a-year reading program says the Education Department ignored the law and ethical standards to steer money how it wanted.
The government audit is unsparing in its view that the Reading First program has been beset by conflicts of interest and willful mismanagement. It suggests the department broke the law by trying to dictate which curriculum schools must use.

I don't fault him for that, I fault him for his choice of location and for lying...and his choice of servers for the knob job. (He could have had anyone he wanted and chose an ugly intern!) Another testament to his monumental poor judgement.
But at this juncture in history I see a Democratic ticket with Bill Clinton and John Kerry that will sweep the nation by landslide. He will balance the budget and bring us out of hostile territory that we don't need our fighting men and women in.

Amnesty International has accused Hezbollah of acts amounting to war crimes in the conflict with Israel.
It says the Lebanese militant group deliberately targeted civilians with rockets in the 34-day war - a "serious violation of humanitarian law".
Amnesty says what it calls Israel's violations can in no way justify Hezbollah's actions.
It quoted Sheikh Nasrallah as saying: "As long as the enemy undertakes its aggression without limits or red lines, we will also respond without limits or red lines."
About 1,000 Lebanese, mainly civilians, died in the fighting, while 161 Israelis, mainly soldiers, were killed.

(Time.com
) -- In three of the Gospels, Jesus warns that each of his disciples may have to "deny himself" and even "take up his Cross."
In support of this prediction, he contrasts the fleeting pleasures of today with the promise of eternity: "For what profit is it to a man," he asks, "if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?"
Generations of churchgoers have understood that being Christian means being ready to sacrifice. But for a growing number of Christians, the question is better restated, "Why not gain the whole world plus my soul?"
For several decades, a philosophy has been percolating in the 10 million-strong Pentecostal wing of Christianity that seems to turn the Gospels' passage on its head. Certainly, it allows, Christians should keep one eye on heaven. But the new good news is that God doesn't want us to wait.
Known (or vilified) under a variety of names -- Word of Faith, Health and Wealth, Name It and Claim It, Prosperity Theology -- its emphasis is on God's promised generosity in this life. In a nutshell, it suggests that a God who loves you does not want you to be broke.
Its signature verse could be John 10:10: "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." In a Time poll, 17 percent of Christians surveyed said they considered themselves part of such a movement, while a full 61 percent believed that God wants people to be prosperous.

Why don't you just look for yourself how much better we are since 9/11 and where we are going. Here is their budget plan and what it means to YOU!
Who are the REAL fascists? We have our very own Taliban right here in the White House! Quit looking for excuses! What we have to fear the most in the world today are the Christian bigots leading us around by the false fear that they tout.

Truth that Capitalistic Christianity can't admit. It would show their own culpability in current world affairs.
Judge Philip Britt of Dunklin County, MO and Judge Stephen Mitchell of Stoddard County, MO both agreed to give the retarded child of a child molester to the child molester with full custody. The State of MO determined that one of his children had been "penetrated with his penis" at the age of four. But the perpetrator was never prosecuted because his father was a police officer in Leachville, AR. We all know about the "thin blue line".
Furthermore, the MO Department of Family Services extorted the natural mother of this child into leaving her current husband for two sole reasons: 1) the current husband had killed a man protecting his grandfather from an out of control crack head over ten years prior (for which he did every last day of a seven and a half year sentence, and 2) he is HIV positive for 17 years.
When the agencies motives were questioned, they simply reassigned those in charge and moved them out of the area to avoid culpability. But the child molester protecting judges are still cock of the walk...or just plain cocks with ears.
Corruption and deception is the rule and order of business in a Capitalist Christian society. They are liars and bigots by nature.
And they wonder why other nations hate the U.S.
Well, Duh.

When will the Christian Sheep realize that their blind following of their elitist, capitalistic, demagogue leaders are killing them as well as the rest of the world?! Their "no child left behind" plan is lowering the standards of learning and leaving up to 70% of all students without even a nurse or counselor in the schools. Our Veterans Hospitals are under staffed, under resourced and under funded. Medicare and Medicaid has been cut so dramatically that our poor and elderly can't get the care they require to merely survive!
And they do all of this in order to control the oil and protect their own pockets! It is no wonder that the do not want us to know what truly motivates Islamic extremists to hate America,
Here is what the 911 Commission learned about the reason for it all but omitted from their report....

Clinton to ABC: 'Tell the truth' about 9/11
Former President Bill Clinton called for ABC to "tell the truth" in an upcoming miniseries about the events leading up to the 9/11 attacks. Several advisers to former President Clinton have attacked the reported depiction of events that took place on their watch, calling them inaccurate and demanding changes to "The Path to 9/11." 9/8/2006 9:17 AM
Slick Willy didn't tear the U.S. down like the current prick with ears, but him saying "tell the truth" is surely like the pot calling the kettle black. But it's certainly worth a chuckle or two!
