Confusion results when people substitute religious euphoria, mass hypnosis, and sheer addleheadedness for analysis.

'Hear me, people of America, God's laws live today. Keep them and none suffer, disregard them and we go the way of the missing. His word said that. Here is what He said:

"The profit of the earth is for all." Ecclesiastes: chapter 5, verse 9.

"And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof; it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family." Leviticus: chapter 25. verse 10.

"At the end of every 7 years thou shalt make a release. . . Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbor shall release it; he shall not exact it of his. . . brother; because it is called the Lord's release." Deuteronomy: Chapter 15, verses 1 and 2.

Maybe you do not believe the Bible; maybe you do not accept God as your Supreme Lawgiver. God help you if you do not; but if you do not, then all I ask of you is to believe the simple problems of arithmetic, the tables of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. If you believe them, you will know that we cannot tolerate this condition of a handful of people owning nearly all and all owning nearly nothing. In a land of plenty there is no need to starve unless we allow greed to starve us to please the vanity of someone else.'

Huey Long -- January 23, 1935

-----------------------------------------

Here's a brief fill in the blank multiple choice test.

The following are excerpts from a March 23, 2002 Washington Times piece by Bill Sammon.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------- Urges More Foreign Aid

"MONTERREY, Mexico: --------- yesterday said Americans are duty-bound to 'share our wealth' with poor nations and promised a 50 percent increase in foreign aid, but 'We should give more of our aid in the form of grants, rather than loans that can never be repaid,' he said. 'We should invest in better health and build on our efforts to fight AIDS, which threatens to undermine whole societies.'

"In addition to the moral, economic and strategic imperatives of increasing foreign aid, ------- said, it could also help in the war against terrorism.

"'We will challenge the poverty and hopelessness and lack of education and failed governments that too often allow conditions that terrorists can seize and try to turn to their advantage"

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who is quoted above?

a) Al Gore
b) John "Lurch" Kerry
c) Hillary Clinton
d) Jesse "Babbling" Jackson
e) Reverend Al What's-His-Name
f) Whoopie Goldberg
g) Bill Clinton
h) Bono and the pop band U2
i) Huey "Share the Wealth" Long
j) President of the USA, George W. Bush

Hint: He's very popular here at Free Republic.

If you think that Bush is a conservative and the Almighty's Chosen Man, then you are the one suffering from strong delusions, not me. Save it for the glassy-eyed fanatics.

Oh, my..........I could tear apart every word you've said, but your anti-spiritual cynism has blinded you, so it would be a waste of my time and yours.

I'll pray that the God of love who created you, knows everything about you, and loves you in spite of it, who sent His Son to die for you, and is waiting your repentance so that you can live with Him eternally, breaks through that hardened shell around you, and reaches into your needy heart and clears your mind.

God bless you, Mortimer.

Now its the DemonRATS turn to apologize for certain shenanigans which disgraced the moral integrity of the presidency while our misguided prison guards were young and impressionable.

Funny you say that, I had a conversation with my father (WWII/Korea, retired during Vietnam) and he said this whole issue (the soldiers doing sicko/sexual things with the prisoners) is an issue of morality and problems with America's youth.

He said when the investigations are said and done, it's going to be almost all young people who actively engaged in these deviant/homosexual acts. You might find some older soldiers who for whatever reason, looked the other way, but by and large, it's going to be youngsters who came of age over the last 10 years and who might not have had parents who cared enough to raise them right.

He didn't mention Clinton's presidency specifically, but I'm sure he considers that part of the problem :-)

You are camouflaging contempt as concern. You confuse spirituality with unconsciousness. People like you are why I no longer attend church.

"engaged in these deviant/homosexual acts. "

I'm glad you mentioned that. This type of affront to God hasn't been seen since Mussolini's Fascism. Many people on this forum like to say that they were only having fun, but you don't just commit deviant sex acts because it's fun. Maybe those people should move to Vermont or that modern day Sodom the Netherlands, it should be more to their liking. America is the last bastion of Christian faith in the first-world, and what those little runts in Iraq have done is to basically spit on this country.

Bush should apologize to the troops for apologizing to the Arab world.

The perps who abused Iraqi prisoners are a disgrace to the uniform, the flag, the human race, and to G-d. Investigate. Prosecute. Give them a fair trial and a fast and public hanging.

I trust Rumsfeld and Bush. They will do the right thing. The perps have brought great danger to many Americans by their evil deeds.

The Kerry Kids are ratcheting up their anti-Bush BS and Joe still hasn't hadenuf.

Predictable.

Kerry? LOL!

Yes, you are predictable CWO, and yes, I have had enough of people like you, Texasforever and a couple others that attempt to sugar coat and minimize this crisis, and portray those that speak out against this epic invasion and the undermining of our sovereignty, as racists, bigots. Those seem to be you're political talking points.

When in reality, you and a few others are nothing but political party mouth pieces that continue your party agenda of attempting to ignore, and minimizing one of the largest, most dangerous crisis facing this country.

So, do you know where I could hire some cheap lettuce pickers

Yet another clear example by you, as others do, in attempting to minimize this crisis by posting cute little quips, in hopes of deflecting any bad light onto the so-called leadership that has allowed this crisis to escalate into a national disgrace, and now a national security nightmare. This clearly includes *both* beltway partys.

********************************************************

KFI AM radio, Los Angeles, this date, Interview with Mr. March, the father of murdered Los Angeles County Sheriff Deputy, David March:

The Father of murdered Los Angeles County Sheriff Deputy Mr. March just stated in a conversation with Bill Handle on KFI Los Angeles:

"I don't know why we don't invade Mexico".

His son was executed at close range by an illegal alien, after a routine traffic stop, and as the Deputy laid dying in the street, the illegal alien immediately fled to the safety of Mexico, the prefered hidout for many illegal alien murderers.

They went on to say that Mexico harbors more people that have murdered and maimed U.S. citizens than died in the 911 terrorist attack.

He stated, in a conversation with law enforcement officials in Los Angeles there are approximately, upwards of 1000 illegal aliens from California *alone* that have fled to the safety of Mexico after murdering California citizens.

He went on to say he was told by these law enforcement officials they estimate well *over* 3000 people have been murdered in this country, and their killers have fled back to safety of Mexico, where many of them remain untouchable, being harbored by the Mexican government.

More than were murdered in the horrific 911 attack.

And as most of us already know, the Mexican government has remained completely uncooperative to the hundreds of attempts that have been made to bring these terrorist and murderers to justice.

Deputy March's Father, along with law enforcement has organized a huge march tomorrow in the LA area, that will be attended by the LAPD Chief of Police, the LA County Sheriff, among others in Law enforcement that will voice their protest at this titanic invasion and the Mexican government that are harboring these murdering terrorist. Thousands are expect to attend.

But hey CWOJackson, enjoy you're salad.

I have NO contempt for you.

You misread me entirely.

I hope you believe me, but I doubt you will. Your mind's already made up about me, and you've put me in a stereotypical box into which I don't fit, I believe.

I have serious problems with the things you've said on this thread, however.

btw, I don't think Bush is entirely conservative, but he is in the areas of morality and defense, and those are the areas that matter most to me.

"...in the areas of morality and defense..."

Morality? Defense? Bush sends fifteen billion dollars to Africa to control AIDS, thus subsidizing the behavior which promotes the disease, tells the world that the USA is duty bound to share its wealth with the rest of the world, which can only be accomplished by holding a gun to the head of every productive US citizen, and then apologizes to those who delight in our destruction. That's not moral, it's indefensible masochistic insanity.

But the guy studies the Bible every day. This is not enough to qualify as a conservative, and his record, as detailed above, demonstrates why not.

You seem to be ducking and dodging my post regarding the crisis that you love to ignore, like your party, as you call or insinuate others are racist that speak out against it. I don't take kindly to that, when leftist and people like you use it as a political tool.

My post must of rang rang your bell hard junior. Maybe a little crow on your "salad" may help.

Joe what "you" consider a crisis is...well, let just leave it at most people would consider it about as critical as you are meaningful to reality...a nonstarter.

But even the weighty issues facing this nation today need the occasional humor break so please, remain Joe Ineverhavenuf.

#1054 isn't a crisis to you as like you, your political party aids and abets it, or just ignores it.

But even the weighty issues facing this nation today need the occasional humor break so please, remain Joe Ineverhavenuf.

Weighty issues were facing today? Oh you mean the Iraq prison, dog and pony media show?

Yeah, I'd say you have your hands full with that.

LOL!

Hey, isn't about time Tex shows up to assist you?
