In this New Year of 2008, I pray to God for the safety of our troops, blessing, protection and wisdom for our President and leaders, forgiveness for our country, and a renewed sense of obedience to God's Ten Commandments, (which are basically Love God and Your Neighbor as Yourself,) healing for my sick friends, salvation for my lost friends and enemies, safety and blessing on my children, and some good roles for myself....roles, not rolls. Oh, and that my husband...oh, that's too personal. (TMI for the Internet.) And, thank you Lord, for your amazing creation of nature and our bodies and the stars and all the other mysterious wonders you have made. You are an awesome God. Your will be done. In Jesus name, Amen.

Open Letter to Joy Behar and Others Who Speak Like Her:
I'm really tired of your hatred rants against Pres. Bush. Have some respect for authority and for the people like me who voted for him. I did not vote for Bill Clinton, but I would never use my SNL connection to publicly criticize him and I would never speak of another human being with such vitriol. Pres. Bush did not start the war against America and he is doing a great job with the situation that was put upon him. Also, we do not have a king. Our system of government has checks and balances. Instead of complaining, why don't you take a political history course and run for office and see what good you can do for the world.
The tongue is a powerful little thing. Use it for some good.
Love,
VJ
P.S. I think you are very funny and quick witted when you're not hating people who think differently than you.
P.S.S. "Intelligence, patriotism, Christianity and a firm reliance on Him, who has never yet forsaken this favored land, are still competent to adjust...all our present difficulty." Abraham Lincoln (www.wallbuilders.com)
I liked her as Wierd Al’s girlfriend in “UHF”.
IMHO, she is asking forgiveness for the pit this country has crawled into.
We honor money and power over God. We allow homosexuality and PC to stifle our beliefs. We indulge ourselves in every experience that surrounds us, all without thought to the consequences. Our “live for today” attitude will continue until we get off our rear ends and on our knees, or we will be brought to our knees.
JMHO, of course.
Victoria Jackson is awesome! I had the biggest crush on her when I was a teenager in the late 1980s. I’m glad that she’s on the RIGHT side of things these days.
Here is an interview that she did with The Door Magazine about her faith and life: http://thedoormagazine.com/archives/victoriajackson.html
Her point about what Christians should do if they don't like the movies Hollywood is making, makes more sense than anything I've ever heard:
I don't think Christians can complain because my feeling is: Make your own movies. Are Christians too stupid that we can't write a script, we can't film a movie OR we don't know how to act?
Go and read the rest. She's so bright & interesting.
Charles Rocket killed himself a few years ago, IIRC.
Never mind I found it
Actor/Comedian Tony Rosato has been locked up without bail for over 2 years for harassing his wife.
“He was charged with harassment after he complained to police that his wife Leah Rosato and their daughter had gone missing and had been replaced by imposters.”

That’s great to know that Victoria Jackson is a believing Christian.
May God bless her mightily, protect her and her family, and continue to open doors for her to share the Gospel to others in Hollywood and wherever else the Lord sends her. People everywhere desperately need repentance, forgiveness, and a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
God is using Victoria as a shining light for Christ.
Her ukulele routines were a crack up. She is a light in a very dark place when it comes to the entertainment business.

I’ll bet part of the reason she’s not in the limelight (other than the full-time mom issue, of course!) IS her non-leftist views. Hollywood only tolerates open conservatives who are HUGE stars, and then only because it must.
Thanks for posting this, Recovering_Democrat. :-)
Don't know about Jan. Charles Rocket killed himself a few years ago.
I don't take that from her context at all.
I think we can tell what her character is like by what she has posted. :)
Mine also.
I’ll never forget “Toonces the Cat” - the cat who could drive a car . . . he would be shown in a skit with passengers (Victoria was always with Toonces cautioning him), sitting at the wheel of a car and “driving”. They would invariably be involved in a very serious accident, but Toonces had the distinction of being the “cat who could drive a car” - sort of like the Democrats who continue to label themselves “the rats who can run a country”.
funny stuff.
I don’t think a person can be that quick-witted and funny without being very intelligent. My husband saw her on a “faith and media” panel once. He said she’s a very smart lady. Obviously she convinced you with her persona, so she must be a great actress as well.
Now I know why she can’t get any good work in Hollywood. She has been black-listed.

LOL. Or maybe it was for this reason (from her website): “I’ve been a mom for fifteen years in Miami”.
Hard to get work in Hollywood living in Miami.
