Thank you for every word. Great post. I plan to borrow FUMO....it falls gently on the ear.
:) Let me share with you what I just posted to my facebook page:
Okay, this is a full-fledged rant. So feel free to skip it if you want. I was a Democrat. I was a fourth generation Democrat. I was a union member. My father was a union member. My grandfather was a union member. My great-grandfather was a union member. That was back in the days when unions stood for their workers and not for lining their own pockets.
I am a veteran. Don’t talk to me about patriotism, I have lived it.
I am a single parent, don’t talk to me about birth control or abortion, I have lived those choices. It offends me for women to stand up dressed like giant vaginas as if that is the totality of our life experiences. It should be offensive to minorities to have rich White women tell them that they have a right to free matricide.
It offends me for self-hating, Israel-hating Jews to stand up and protest against Israel in favor of the Palestinians. There are no Palestinians; they are Jordanians who have been refused entry back into their own country. It is the Arabs who have caused them to be refugees, not the Israelis.
Democrats lost their way a long time ago.
But when they have gone so far as to insert the name of a political candidate into Biblical text – they have completely lost their minds. I don’t care what your religious preference – it should offend you too. Democrats are selling merchandise at their convention that says: Obama 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave us Barack Obama”. THAT IS INSANE.
