After all, last Sunday we celebrated His entry into Jerusalem, with palms and songs of praise. In less than a week most of Jerusalem wanted Him killed. How fickle mankind is.We had an interesting homily at sunrise service this morning - the three groups of soldiers who "witnessed" Jesus as the Son of God: the temple guards who heard him identified, the place guards who took him before Herod, and the Roman legionnaires who crucified him. Unusual, but very interesting. Our sunrise service is small and intimate (usually too cold for most people), and I find very moving.

One of my favorite Bible stories.

ABC radio news announces where “the candidates were today” and did not mention McCain. So much for an open mind. /s
Hillary in NY with family
Obama is “believed to be” in St Thomas with family.

Most people, myself included, believed that Hillary was a sure bet to be the nominee.
I was of the same opinion, but a family member who is a dedicated Dim activist informed me that there were deep resentments by some Rats going back to the Gore, and later, the Kerry campaigns.
Apparently, when it comes to presidential politics, the Clintons are not eager to significantly assist anyone who might delay or even prevent the realization of what has always been the plan-- a second Clinton presidency. That seemed to be reasonable statement, so, I adjusted my outlook. Whatever, the eventual Kerry/Kennedy endorsement of Obama was no surprise to me.

That is funny maica but also expected. The media are all democrats anyway, so they view their listeners through their own liberal lense anyway.
As we all know, McCain is at home in AZ with his family, after just returning from his overseas trip. You know the one where he had that “severe gaff” about AQ versus “islamist extremists”.
The media has become laughable, honest reporting is not in the blood; ethics is out the window; investigative journalism to them is reading the front page of the NYSlimes and reporting it verbatim; propagandists — one and all.
They have become a modern day joke.

I think your scenario has about a ten percent chance of being correct.
But it’s not beyond the pale.
Here’s the story.....first, establish the premise that Obama yo mama is unelectable. Establish that the Dems cannot afford to appear to be throwing Obama under the bus in favor of Hillary as they will lose a very, very important base vote with the black vote.
I say they offer Obama the moon and the 2012 presidency, (btw, Obama would have do what you said, renounce Jeremiah because he will never be accepted until he throws the guy over), he accepts, and OBAMA calms down the African American base. Something good might even come of it with the exposure and denouncement of those nut revrunds....Revrund Wright it just a bad thing and us folks with common sense will accept no spin on it.
But suppose Obama says NO, no way I walk away and give it to HILLARY....I beat her fair and square. Or maybe polls and focus groups show that the African American base will not be appeased even with Barack’s help. So the Dems throw Hillary under the bus too and maybe research shows this will work. And it might.
At any rate, it’s so damn cool how these TV pundits sit and talk about stuff they know nothing about cause Revrun Wright is all about common sense.
I’m telling you, they’re so full of themselves it’s palpable.

You've captured Peggy perfectly! Curious about Michelle...perhaps she's being locked in a closet. Want to bet we see fabulous beach pics of the Obama family, hand-in-hand, frolicking along the shore.

I think both parties will have some serious thinking to do about the primary process after this election.
I don’t know what happened to the Republicans... I just don’t know. We had a couple of good candidates who gave up way too early.
We need to figure out a way to stop the crossover voting in those early states, and the dems are probably working on sumpin like that too, thanks to the Rushthevote.

Hold it.
Last night the priest mentioned how today in some families the elders are greatly respected...he was talking about Peter and John racing to the tomb and how, even though John was younger and probably got there first, he would have respected Peter, his elder, and let him enter first. I wanted to shout out--yeah, not like SOME PEOPLE who trash their elderly grandmothers on worldwide television!

I don't now how delicious it is, we will win but Mcqueeg will always be an alternative candidate for me.
I am already thinking about 2012 and the chances of getting a true conservative elected.
He(McCain) can help if we get conservative choice for VP, but with McCain our chances are no better than 50/50 if that.
Of course there is yet another caveat that he better consider before anointing a brokeback Lindsay or even worse.
McCain is scoring very little dough right now, if he wants it to get any better he better think Conservative VP or prepare to run a beggars campaign.

McCain’s verbal abilities will make us long for the loathed and despised George W. Bush, whom the libs always made fun of as an orator (although I thought he was fine)
Bush is especially good at unscripted, off-the-cuff remarks. McCain is not. But he’s all we got.

It’s one of the Lord’s blessings that He not only rescued the Jews through Esther and Mordecai, He gave them a feast one month before Passover, which celebrates another rescue. And both holidays are marked by full moons.
Although, as a good Baptist girl, it took me a while to get my head around Jesus celebrating Purim.

We had a couple of good candidates who gave up way too early.Exactly. I just posted elsewhere that 90% of the country didn't even have a say as to who the republican nominee is.
Ridiculous!

Speaking of lovable Lurch:
RUSH:
Man, this is what I mean. When you got guys like this speaking for you, you have no control over. Do you realize what you just heard? This is the former Democrat presidential nominee, and he has just encapsulated here the liberal Democrat view of this country where it comes to race: "We are guilty!" Whatever anybody, particularly our enemies -- whatever radical Islam thinks of us -- they're right. We are guilty, because we are racist, sexist, bigot, homophobes and all that. And we need to elect an African-American president, a young leader, obviously visionary, to show the rest of the world that we are who we say we are as a people. To bridge the divide of religious extremism? (laughing) Kerry said this on Monday. I don't think Jeremiah Wright was a common household name at that time. (laughing) Bridge the divide.? He has created the divide! He's widening the divide! He's dredging the divide! He's dumping the sand of the divide on both sides of the shore. But Kerry wasn't through. (cont.)
Kerry on America: Were Guilty

Which may be a plus in Romney’s column, no? Along with his own funds, he showed he has the confidence of the financial community. And with the Obama/Clinton alternatives, his opportunism and Mormonism might not be great negatives in the veep slot.
The question is whether the financial guys can get themselves together to make the case for McCain to pick their kind of guy in exchange for the funds.
