A Rant about Democrats

June 22, 2006

I have had it with the Democrats. Governor Blanco of Lousiana has signed the abortion ban bill and that is the last straw for me. The Democrats are supposed to be about representing the little guy – folks like me and my family. Instead we get bitches and bastards like Blanco:
“Today, [...]

Secular Activism: Protecting Court Access

June 21, 2006

The House Judicial Commitee is considering HR-2679 aka the Public Expression of Religion Act (PERA).

Godless: An Anti-Atheist Tirade

June 17, 2006

Much ado is being made about Ann Coulter’s remarks about 9/11 widows with people such as Hilary Clinton falling over herself to condemn them. Now, technically I think Ann had a bit of a point (political parties hiding behind untouchables, such as the Republicans accusing anyone who disagrees with the war of not ‘supporting [...]

June 16, 2006

Using Children as “God’s Army” by Kirsten Powers on a movie about Jesus Camp, a right wing children’s camp where the leader wants children as young as five to be as serious about Christianity here as they are in Pakinstan:
“I want young people to be as committed to laying down their lives for the Gospel [...]
