Pollywogs!

They are vehemently against abortion, they resist progressive woman’s rights. They view homosexuality as a crime against nature and God, some advocate the death penalty as an option for it. Separation of Church and State is despised by these folks; they insist the nation is founded on the principles of their religion, and they work hard to bring that de facto theocracy about. They deplore strong language, gay characters, and sexual content on TV and in the media. And they ignore the Geneva Convention when it suits their ideological purposes, including provisions against torture or due process. They’re anti-stem cell research, pro-creationism, and generally distrustful of science. These folks are easily whipped into a state of frenzy with ideological manipulation to the point where they will commit violence, or at least tacitly endorse that violence is acceptable, if it advances their Divine agenda. They then take great pains to justify that violence, including unprovoked attack of civilian areas, under certain conditions, with convoluted theological gymnastics. They are almost to the man pro-death penalty … Am I railing against the religious right again?

Could be, but my target here is actually Al Qaeda and related fundamentalist Wahhabism; the source of terrorism, the scourge of our planet, the Axis of Evil.

extremism, in any form or manner, should be shunned, and personally tempered if you have the internal fortitude…all things in moderation.

just look what happens when you get so self-righetous that you think you should tell everyone around you how to live their lives…you end up a terrorist…or a politician…if there is a difference anymore…

I used to do this all the time with those people who said they needed to get money out of some african country. I didn’t realize there were so many people out there who felt like me and (stranger yet) acted like me…

I can’t remember the last time I got one of these emails tho…I think most ISP-side filters have become too extensive to allow them through anymore. (Kelley says ‘why do you pay $12 a year for spamcop email? its like my community service to the larger internet community…)

Dear Cecil:

How come people always say “Jesus H. Christ”? Why not Jesus Q. Christ or Jesus R. Christ or something else? Does the H really stand for something? My future peace of mind depends on your answer. –W.B.T., Chicago

Dear W.:

The H stands for Harold, as in, “Our Father, who art in heaven, Harold be thy name” (snort).

Actually, I’ve heard numerous explanations for the H over the years. The first is that it stands for “Holy,” as in Jesus Holy Christ, a common enough blasphemy in the South, abridged to H by fast-talking Northerners. Other colorful Southern epithets include Jesus Hebe Christ and Jesus Hebrew Christ, which abbreviate the same way. The drawback of this account is that it is so boring I can barely type it without falling asleep.

Kelley wanted to know…

Leviticus 11:9-12 says:
⁹ These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
¹⁰ And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
¹¹ They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
¹² Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

Deuteronomy 14:9-10 says:
⁹ These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat:
¹⁰ And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean unto you.

Strange? Stranger yet because its true! That is right, god apparently hates shrimp just as much as he hates people of the same sex having sexual relations (personally, I don’t know what god has to do with someone’s bed, but he seems to weasel his way into every aspect of life for some people…do some people ‘do it’ for god, bringing him ‘glory’? chanting his name as they get closer and closer? ‘oh christ, oh christ oh yes jesus’? …disturbing…wonder how many devout women have images of their local icon floating through their head…more disturbing…I gotta stop…)

Props go to Melissa for finding this rare gem. All of those homophobic ultra-conservatives, while they try to chase away their homoerotic thoughts with prayers to the good lord, wolfing down all types of foul and vile creatures, unfit for clean christian souls.

They might as well all start geting assfucked, while their pastor eats shrimp off their back, with a little reach-around for some dipping sauce…SAME DIFFERENCE IN THE EYES OF THE LORD HALLELUJAH AMEN!

Oh wait if jesus said that shrimp were ok, moses be damned, then he cool is with Queer Eye for the Straight Guy…

“I believe that our executive branch cannot continue to operate without the checks of the other branches. However, I stand behind the President in encouraging Congress to operate cautiously during the hearings so that sensitive government intelligence is not given to our enemies.” — Paul Weyrich, chairman and CEO, Free Congress Foundation

Even conservatives are starting to wonder about our exhalted and supreme leader.

They still have a problem tho, ‘operate cautiously…so that sensitive…intelligence…’, the thing is most likely there has been NO intelligence gathered that actually stopped or lead to the capture of ‘terrorists’. If the intelligence is worthless, it sure as shit isn’t sensitive.

Open the doors, bring out the truth.

Please note that the word ‘chink’ is in no way a racial epitath!
