My Email to ABC's This Week with Georgie boy

me

[GeorgiaYankee]

I wathced This Week with George Stepanopolis and saw Fareed Zakaria say that General Boykins had referred to "Muslims as Satan." It flew past Georgie boy, he thought nothing of it.

Here's my email to ABC:

Did Fareed Zakaria deliberately distort what General Boykin said or is he just not that bright?

He said that General Boykin was "going around talking about Muslims as Satan."

General Boykin said that the enemy is not people (as he showed pictures of Saddam and Osama and Kim Jong Il) but Satan.

Ephesians 6:12 says "we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against pirincipalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

General Boykins was speaking to Christians about spiritual warfare.

Once again, let me emphatically state that General Boykins never spoke of "Muslims as Satan" and Mr. Zakaria should be ashamed for his gross mistatement.

I am comforted by the fact that "This Week" is the least-watched Sunday morning political show, and deservedly so!

did anybody else see this?

I didn't, and never do, watch it.

Georgie is so two-faced. Did you know that he wanted to become a priest? His dad (Robert) and his uncle, Elias (now deceased) were both priests? His father is the priest at the Greek church off 5th Ave. in NYC.

I saw it - and it made me sick.

I can't watch to much of the crap, I know we should be open and learn what we can from the other side, but it is so sickening.

The General is to Pro American and Pro Christian for the people. They want to throw people like him to the lions.

I don't watch any of the Sunday morning shows. I just can't stand how rude they are to each other. All the interruptions..........I just can't stand it!

[pbear8]

I saw it and can definitely confirm that they both distorted the quotes and the entire story. Gen Boykin simply said what every Christian should know - Our God is an awesome God, there are false gods worshipped by many, Satan is the enemy, American was founded on Judeo-Christian principles. This is a non-story.

But I still have to ask:
SO WHAT IF HE DID??

Do we not enjoy freedom of religion here? Is it not within a person's God-given civil liberties to think that another person's religion was spawned from Hell?? What exactly would be wrong with that anyways?

Next, we'll be saying that anyone that preaches on this passage should be drawn and quartered for hate speech:

1 John 3:10-12
10 This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother.
11 This is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another.
12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother's were righteous.

I heard it too but didn't catch that most important distinction. Good for you!

That's what I get for making my football picks of the week while listening to little Georgie.

So glad you sent them that e-mail. Do you have the address handy - I'll send them a little e-mail too.

IMHO, the Good Lord was looking down favorably on the earth when Georgie decided against it.......

[newgeezer]

He could've been a terrific priest.

[StonyBurk]

I saw it--and sent George Step on all o us an e-mai.
Reminded him Gen.Boykin exemplifies the General Orders
issued by General George Washington to the Army that secured our Independence. Also reminded him that Jefferson
was wise enough to campaign for that office "Millions for
Defence not a penny for Tribute" And Madison affirmed it
by calling such "settled policy" AMwaiting for another
Jefferson.IF the party that attacked us repeatedly since
1983(Marine Barracks) believes it is a Holy War/or Religious
warthen we best Wake Up and realize it is.

Got that right. Haven't watched that show in years...and it is NOT on my "to do" list.

Not for the "objective" Mainstream Press!

They think if they hammer away at this story long enough, they'll get what they want: Boykin's resignation.

I just saw the end of a story on the See B.S. Evening News about this. Reporter John Roberts compared Gen Boykins statements with Malaysian PM Matahiri's Anti-Semetic rant from last week.

Moral equivalency at its best!

Poetic Justice Dept: In some markets, the CBS Evening News has ratings lower than reruns of "What's Happening."
