Foley's E-Mails

Challenger Seeks Probe of Rep. Foley's E-Mails to Boy, 16

The Democratic opponent of Rep. Mark Foley (R-Fla.) is calling for an investigation into an e-mail exchange that Foley conducted last year with a 16-year-old boy who had worked as a congressional page. 

********

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.

'V' for Vendetta

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.

Bush Reading Program Gets Failing Grade

Audit: Bush's Billion-Dollar a Year Reading Program Beset by Favoritism, Mismanagement

By BEN FELLER AP Education Writer

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.

[And rewrite history and science, no doubt!]

When will the Christian sheep realize that they are not the elite, know all, be all of the world?

I have known Bill Clinton all of my life. I grew up in AR and endured his governorship, each time. I screamed at the top of my lungs not to put him into office! And sure enough, he was wishy washy on foreign affairs because he was busy getting his knob polished in the "seat of power".

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.

war crimes

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.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/5343188.stm

Hmmm... tit for tat? Who over reacted? Who killed the most innocent? Why is Zion and Christianity above reproach? It doesn't take a genius to see who's actions are more egregious. But who gets kicked around in the world press?

Blessed are the Rich, for they shall take the earth...and anything else they want!

(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.

Fascism in America

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.

We can't handle the truth!

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.

Wake up!

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....

"tell the truth"

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!

They are calling a pervert in Utah/Nevada "the Taliban in America". We all know that the TRUE American Taliban is in the White House.

See you in the funny papers...

Jews, Jews, Jews, Jews, Jews...

I'm so sick of hearing about the Jews in Israel! They are to blame for everything, no they are not! Jews are good, Jews are bad!

I often hear here in the Heartland of the United States, in the Bible Belt, "They better quit messin' with those Jews...they are God's chosen People!"

Well, if they are his chosen people, why aren't you a Jew? I mean, why don't you convert?Why do you identify as one other than his chosen people, given your extreme sanctimony?

With the Christian Nation having installed the Jews in Israel, knowing that they would destabilize the region, who is truly at fault for the war now in progress? In fact, who made the first moves of aggression in the region?

I still think that your bible belts are too tight. It's cutting off the oxygen from your brain! Bible prophecy has nothing to do with what is going on there now. "Mammon" is the root. The god of money...the black blood of the earth that is the source of the deterioration of our planet and its atmosphere. The money whores have spent as much money impeding development of alternative energy sources as they have on the wars to control the oil!

The root of the problem is the money whores in the corporate world! That is why they have been targeted here in the United States.

I've always said that if you don't want to be shot at, do not walk around the butts of the firing range with a target painted on your back!

BEIRUT (Reuters) -"(If) at any time you decide to stop your campaigns on our cities, suburbs, civilians and infrastructure, we won't strike with rockets any settlement or Israeli city ...," Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said in a taped televised message.

Sounds like a fair trade to me...but the dumb asses won't accept it.

I don't presume to know the mind of the creator. However, I am sure that when Jesus referred to his followers as 'sheep', he didn't mean it in the literal sense. But that is exactly what the Christian Nation has become: blind, gullible, unthinking, remorseless, manipulatable, irresponsible, unaccountable sheep.

Where did this "blind faith" come from?

I have a theory. Who is the only Apostle who never met Jesus of Nazareth? Saul of Tarsus, of course. We have two accounts of his conversion in the Christian Bible, neither of which produce witnesses of his alleged and self-proclaimed "anointing" by Jesus as an apostle. In fact, up to that point he had killed more Christians for their belief in the Master than any man on earth of the day. In spite of these facts, he set his self up as the Leader of the Christian movement.

A side bar to this "self-proclamation", can anyone tell us who Jesus his self declared the leader of his church? "You are Peter, and upon this Rock I will build my Church". (Mt 16:18)

Yet, there were troubled times in the Roman Empire and the followers of Jesus of Nazareth were gaining favor among the commoners. Granted, Christians of the day were not allowed to vote. But they had great influence on those who did with their word of mouth style revolution of spirit in a very intellectually open society. So, I ask you, what would be the logical political strategy to influence these influential spiritualists? Infiltration and influence at its highest position.

By in large, the doctrine set forth in the Authorized and Canonized New Testament was written by Saul of Tarsus, a Roman Soldier. And one of their best, most loyal soldiers by all accounts. In spite of Jesus' own proclamation that Peter was "the Rock".

In the book of Acts one will find the blueprint for Communism as set forth by Saul. And examples of disobeying this communistic societal blueprint is described in the death of a couple who tried to hold back part of their wealth from the Saulian community.

I ask you, when Jesus exhorted all to love and forgive, why would God smite down anyone who suffered from the very human condition of greed...especially when said greed physically harmed no one?

Question: If the Katusha Rockets of the Hezbollah are such a threat, why don't we hear of the type devastation from them that we hear and see of the Israeli response to them?

It has been stated in the news by various authorities that Israel's response has been "disproportionate". And the entire world community is calling for an immediate cease fire. The only hold outs to that exhortation are the US and Herr Bush's lackey, Tony Blair. And it seems ironic that the world community should turn to the US to "reign in" the sovereign state, Israel. But maybe it's not so ironic. After all, the Bastard State of Israel did not gain its sovereignty independently. The United Kingdom placed them there and the US armed them to the teeth.

And ever since they declared their independence, they have been allowed free reign to wreak havoc on the Islamic Nation. They conduct themselves in combat in ways that the world would not allow anyone else to behave. They are the ones who have repeatedly violated territorial treatise into Palestinian regions with military might all along. They are the ones who treat their neighbors and all non-jews as goyim, or non-jew dogs. They trample the basic human rights of anyone who stands in the way of their own propagation and proliferation in any way. And the world turns to the US to control them.

And why would the US NOT reign them in in light of their "disproportionate" actions? Because it is exactly what the US wants them to do...attack the Islamic Nation from its western boarder. Should we, the world community, be angry with Israel? Of course not! One cannot be angry at a snake for biting or a scorpion for stinging because it is simply their nature to do so. When the Jews were installed in the Middle East after WWII, it was fully expected that they would destabilize the area. Indeed, it was desired! Those expectations have not gone unanswered.

We will take a closer look at the architects of this unrest in another Post.

BEIJING (AFP) - China has shut down a popular blog by a Tibetan author after she wrote birthday wishes for the Dalai Lama and touched on other sensitive topics, the writer and a website operator told AFP.

The blog also discussed AIDS problem in Tibet, the impact of the recently completed Tibet railway on Tibetan culture and the 40th anniversary of what happened in Tibet during the tumultuous Cultural Revolution.

These issues are all considered sensitive by the Chinese communist government, which has ruled Tibet since sending troops in to "liberate" the remote Himalayan region in 1950.

A manager of one of two websites that carried the blogs of Oser, who only uses one name, told AFP they were ordered to remove the blog.

"On July 28, we received an order from the provincial government to shut her the blog. I don't know the reason," said the manager of tibetcul.net, Wangxiu Caidan, a Tibetan who gave the Chinese transliteration of her name.

"I believe the order came from the central government."

Wangxiu said the blog was the most popular one on her website, enjoying 280,000 clicks since it was linked to the site in February last year.

Oser, a Tibetan formerly based in Lhasa but now in Beijing, confirmed her blog had been shut down and criticized authorities for restricting freedom of expression.

"It's unfortunate. It's unfair. In this kind of environment in China, it's very hard to express one's true opinions and voice," Oser said.

She said her birthday wishes and poem posted on July 6, the Dalai Lama's birthday, praised the spiritual leader who has been exiled in India since 1959.

She also posted pictures of yak butter lamps on the site as a birthday gift for him, while other writing praised the Dalai Lama.

"There were a lot of commentaries, which showed Tibetans' respect for the Dalai Lama," Oser said.
She said she had no plans to create another blog in the near future but was working on a book about Tibet.

In 2003, China banned "Notes on Tibet," a book Oser wrote which revealed sensitive religious issues, including how the exiled Dalai Lama was still revered by Tibetans inside Tibet.

China regards the Dalai Lama as a "splittist" bent on seeking independence for the territory, although he insists he only wants limited autonomy for his homeland.

On the backs of America's middle and lower class.

To Whom it may concern:

Has anyone looked at a map lately? US backed Israel is currently attacking Lebanon, and by default, Syria on the Islamic Nation's western front. Travel back in time and the US invaded and basically conquered Afghanistan on the Islamic Nation's eastern front. The US then invaded Iraq and went directly up through the Islamic Nation's middle. If that is not a "divide and conquer" strategy, then I'll eat your shorts! And it has all been done under the guise, "the war on terror". Come on! It has always been about the control of oil production in the world! No one can deny the "divide and conquer" appearance, regardless of their other beliefs. "Faith: not *wanting* to know what is true." -- Friedrich Nietzsche


Meanwhile, our government cuts every domestic program in the US including services to the armed men and women who serve in this farce. Veterans Hospitals are having to cut back so dramatically that they can't even provide toll free phone numbers to their clinics. While Medicaid recipients in Missouri can receive transportation to and from their medical appointments, Veterans cannot. Medicaid and Medicare services are cut back so much that it is a standing slug-fest to get an appointment at all! Food stamps are cut back to where no one can possibly survive on the allotment. America's elderly, disabled, and veterans are among the first to receive cuts in services and benefits. And they didn't have adequate benefits to begin with.
As we RUSH shipments of bombs and armaments to Israel to continue their wholesale slaughter of women and children in the name of destroying the infrastructure of Hezbolah, and it is a thinly disguised argument that they are "Rogue" as they are a duly elected segment of the Lebanese government (their goals are simply in opposition to our own), our own infrastructure is beginning to crumble before our very eyes! The majority of Americans could barely get by before they started sending our gross national product to other regions in the world!

Concerning the alleged statements of Mel Gibson, if anyone truly believes that "the Jews" are responsible for any of this, they should check their history. Who installed this heavily armed "burr under the saddle" in the Middle East? The Christian Nation! It is the Christian Nation who is the aggressor in almost every military action in the world and in time. And they try to change their name to "free enterprise" or Capitalism or the misnomer, Freedom, to avoid appearing as fanatic as those they attempt to suppress! And it all falls on the backs of America's middle and lower class.

How about taking care of our own for a change? It has been a long and debilitating reign of the current regime in America. When will we collectively wake up to our decline into fascism? No single party is responsible for our decline alone. It is blind loyalty and the spin of "Patriotism" that fuels and evolves into our own misfortunes.
