"I've taken a few of their writers to task (Lewis Diguid) but they never seem to print my letters."

No, they won't. The KC Star will never print a well-written, solidly supported letter from a conservative. Their goal is only to make conservatives look like mouth breathers.

Johnston and other ministers should keep partisan politics out of the pulpit, said Caroline McKnight, coalition executive director. “His job is to lead his flock by setting an example … not by bringing the smoke-filled room into his sanctuary,” she said.

Are these 'concerned citizens' going to be attending any black churches where Democrat candidates are preaching from the pulpit, and where collections are taken up for their elections? Somehow, I think not.

Yes! Let's coordinate. Anyone interested can let one of us know, then I will plan a get-together. We MUST do this.

I'm sure these are the same type of people who don't raise an eyebrow when Al Gore holds a fundraiser at a Buddhist Temple, or when Democratic candidates speak from the pulpit of black churches.

Hell no. Satan would not approve of their actions.

I work the graveyard shift so I get and read the paper 5 mornings a week. The problem is that as far as computers go I am as dumb as a stump. I tried to post an article from Rhonda lokeman on Ronald Reagan but alas I was too dumb.
You can ping me or FReep mail me anytime. A coordinated offensive would be better than what we're doing now.

"What about Democrats campaigning in black churches? Who's monitoring them? Hello? Hello?"

My sentiments exactly.

Don't fret. You'll get better at the computer. Just take it a step at a time. Regarding posting articles: Go to the printer friendly version of the column, right-click your mouse, click on "view source," right click mouse again, click "select all," right click again, click "copy." Then come to FR and go to the posting page. Click on the body of the article section so that you see your curser, then right click your mouse, click on "paste," and you will see a bunch of gibberish. That is the HTML code for the printer-friendly format of the particle. Just fill in the rest of the info.

When it asks for article url you can back up to the printer friendly page again, highlight the url in your address box near the top of your computer screen, copy it, forward to your posting page and paste the address on the correct line. In fact, do that before you print the article just in case there is a problem. You can always just write the URL down on a piece of paper and type it in if you are having difficulty going back and forth between the pages.

I hope that makes some sense. Just experiment.

If it's pro-sin, it's Democrat.
If it's pro-deadly, it's liberal.

The only solace I get is that I double send the letters ensuring that the offending writer gets the message.

thought police on patrol.

Perhaps some of these homo-aids-non-profits should be investigated and their grants evaluated for advocating homosexuality in public skools and homosexual marriage.

Which is why they will remove the words and ideas. In schools the forbid discussion of any sexual conduct as abnormal.

In Canada they seek to outlaw even preaching morality from the pulpit.

Eventually, any anti-pc, anti-communist, anti-democrat party words in a church will threaten tax status.

The ultimate goal is to remove even the ability/mechanics to express the concept of homosexuality as wrong.

No, I haven't followed them all the way through. Perhaps I should. :)
