Bush Derangement Syndrome.
LOL!
I don't get the sense that the evangelicals are sitting out this election. I don't think any sane conservative can honestly say they want to trust the House or Senate to Pelosi or Reid.
DUY! My sister has that big time.
My lib sister picked a fight with me this weekend over some non-consequential thing, and used the opportunity to slam President Bush. I don't get why people have gotten so very deranged to have a President with integrity, political skill, values, honor, and faith, especially compared to the sleaze we had before.
By the way, this piece has great new tagline potential. See below.
I like the tagline. It sounds so deep and intellectual. ;)
I'm keeping mine to remind people just how important this election is.
Shudder! That is just ONE essential reason to vote pubbie this election!
I used to be quiet about my faith and beliefs, but I'm not anymore. I think of Peter in the NT and how he denied Jesus. I don't ever want to hear a rooster crow in my mind...
That's because "intellectual autocrats" never take the Second Ammendment into their considerations. They live in a world where only words have power. That's why their highest power is a smart lawyer, and a crooked judge.
They've physically disarmed themselves (except for one liberal friend who has a M1 carbine, but won't talk about it), and try to disarm everyone else. Except for their hired guns.
Those same "christorcrats" that they fear will enslave them are actually the guarantee that this will never happen. The conservative with a gun makes the world safe for both himself, and the liberal who would oppress him.
Lots of wisdom in this brief piece, and a great last paragraph. A subject this large though, deserves an entire book. My take on it would have to include my perception that a great deal of this "paranoia" is just that, an ACT that deserves to be put inside quotation marks, because it is so trumped-up and bogus. The Left have become very skilled ACTORS, who can feign moral outrage at the drop of a hat.They can also, without blinking an eye, or dropping a stitch, project all their own shortcomings , sins of omission, and failures onto the opposition. And the oppositon couldn't seem to care less.
Leftards are so full of sh*t. It would be almost funny if only they hadnt killed so many people and denied so many their freedom.
I'm making the world safe for as many liberals as I can. But do they appreciate it? Noooooo.
There is an engineer that I work around (I will not say with) who has such a severe case of Bush Derangement Syndrome that he does not get any work done. Just spews HATEBUSHHATEBUSHHATEHATEHATEBUSH-WAAAAAAHHHHHH!
Then again, this is Minnesota, the Loon State.
That reminds me. When Clinton and Bush were running against each other, our Christian school had a straw vote. Bush got about 516 and Clinton got 1 vote. We found that the 1 vote was from a Kindergarten student and his parents would have died had they known. Liberals would have a hard time being comfortable with that.
"The US government is filled with Christians, since the population on the whole is majority Christian. So why haven't the Christians imposed this supposed theocracy already--how big a majority are they waiting for?" ~ Darkwolf377
Like clock work, when election season rolls around, the secular progressive leftists open their trick bag and start pulling out the same tired old, "how can we fool 'em again today?" playing cards. They've cried wolf so many times now about the same "fear" that it's become laughable.
Ralph Reed set them straight in no uncertain terms back in 1996 when they tried to paint him with the same brush as various religious fringe movements, as noted here:
"...there are some ways of thinking he [Ralph Reed] knows and rejects. He mentions very specifically the Reconstructionist movement promoted by R. J. Rushdoony and his associates.
Reconstructionism-sometimes called Theonomy or Dominion Theology-is a bastard form of Calvinism contending that the American constitutional order must be replaced by a new order based on "Bible Law."
Reed's rejection of this school is notable because, rightly or wrongly, his boss Pat Robertson ... has sometimes been accused of advocating a modified brand of Reconstructionism. Reed's words are unequivocal and, given the diverse constituencies on which the Christian Coalition draws, bold: "Reconstructionism is an authoritarian ideology that threatens the most basic civil liberties of a free and democratic society.
The pro-family movement [Reed's standard term for the cause he champions] . . . must unequivocally dissociate itself from Reconstructionism and other efforts to use the government to impose biblical law through direct political action.
It must firmly and openly exclude the triumphalist and authoritarian elements from the new theology of Christian political involvement." ~ Richard John Neuhaus First Things 10/96 http://www.firstthings.com/ftissues/ft9610/neuhaus.html

I think you mean that "stuff" typically found in that cow lot Rush keeps talking about.
The "stuff" left behind as a calling card by dogs.
I used to be too, until Christian values started being attacked all the time. I've never been the sort of Christian I probably should have been, but it REALLY bothered me when liberal judges, and their minions, started telling me "when" and "how" I would be allowed to practice my faith! I mean when a court wants to decide whether Christmas is Christmas, it's time to worry.
