Are your kids being deprived because the Religious Right declares their hero's "unacceptable"?

Religious extremists have decided that the Harry Potter books are not acceptable for children because they have a Homosexual (gay) character in them. Isn’t that rich! A fiction sequence of novels has been determined to be hazardous to children by the right wing Religious Right.

I find this very interesting as well as extremely revealing. First of all the books are fiction. None of the characters in the books are real. They don’t exist! Isn’t it a bit crazy to decide that something that is fictional isn’t acceptable? That’s like saying that anything that is improvable is fictional and therefore not acceptable. What does that say about the bible?

Isn’t it interesting that instead of cleaning up the messes they have within their organization with preachers, pastors, and others in positions of power and those who have access to the very children they are so worried about they find it necessary to attack a fictional character? Much like Jerry Farewells attack on Tinky Winky, the entire saga appears to be just another attempt to play with the minds of others.

They didn’t approve of the Harry Potter series to begin with because of the “mystical” aspects of the document. Compared to what? The bible?

I think the entire thing is ridiculous! Children need a bit of magic in their childhood. It’s good for the creative mind. It’s good for the “I want to understand” inquisitive maturity of their being. It also develops their ability to decipher reality from fiction…. AHHHH there’s the rub… If they develop that capability God knows what will happen… They won’t believe all the crap these hypocrites want to pump into their minds. Well that part of the mystery is solved but what other reasons would they have for attacking a Fictional Character?

I heard on spokesman for the Religious Wrong saying that kids would say that they needed to try this Gay thing out because they read it in Harry Potter. Can you imagine saying “I think I’ll try being gay” based on a fictional character? If your kids are that easily manipulated you have more problems than them “trying gay”! Talk about Paranoia! They are more likely to try “suicide bomber” based on reality!

By the way, I heard there are rumors that Burt and Ernie, Peppermint Pattie, & Bugs Bunny were all gay. At least these zealots don’t have to worry about them having abortions right?

Ethics Investigation based on Hypocrisy???

Ethics Investigation based on Hypocrisy???

I know I have written a lot about Larry Craig But this thing just gets better and better. The ethics committee has decided that they need to do an investigation on him to determine if they can expel him from the senate.

Ok, wait, a government ethics investigation? For soliciting sex in a men’s room in an airport? Isn’t that a bit ridiculous when Vitter was “soliciting” sex from a “Illegal” prostitute in an “illegal” brothel in Louisiana?

Where is the outrage by AFA, American Family Association, Donald Weldmon, Family Research Council, The Religious Right/Wrong, Pat Robertson, Tony Perkins, Dobson, and the rest of the Hate Mongering Right Wing against Vitter and his “Family Values” and leading our nation into the arms of Prostitutes?

Vitter actually broke the law hiring a prostitute and the Republican Party is falling all over themselves because they have a “homosexual” in their Rankin file? They also have a Federal criminal Mr. Vitter who apparently because he’s involved with prostitutes instead of a homosexual all is forgiven…

Yes, we need a ethics investigation on the basis of Hypocrisy!!!!

The Patriot Act - Two provisions declared Unconstitutional

Finally there is some voice of reason coming forward from our judicial system. Maybe it has something to do with getting rid of Bush’s “Get out of Jail Free Card” Alberto Gonzales?

Two provisions of the USA Patriot Act are unconstitutional because they allow search warrants to be issued without a showing of probable cause, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.

U.S. District Judge Ann Aiken ruled that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, as amended by the Patriot Act, "now permits the executive branch of government to conduct surveillance and searches of American citizens without satisfying the probable cause requirements of the Fourth Amendment."

Thank you Ann Aiken! May more of our judges now find the courage to stand for the constitution instead of the criminal behavior of a misguiding administration and hold them accountable for their crimes!

Two days of Two buffoons in the news

Is anyone else tired of the media using ridiculous diversions to take our eye off the real issues? I am sick of the antics of the media and the politicians going off on tangents talking about a visit from a moronic leader. We have one of those of our own... Why do we act so surprised that another nation has one? Ours is no better than theirs, they are both inept.

George said this....blah blah blah. Well the fact that he actually could put a sentence together and get it out is a surprising feat. Mahmoud said Tuesday that Iran's disputed nuclear program is closed as a political issue and said Tehran will ignore a U.N. Security Council demand imposed by "arrogant powers" to curb its nuclear program. Are you shocked??? Are you surprised???

Come on... Bush rattles the chains, Ahmadinejad shakes his cage. It's like watching two grade school children. Neither of them talks to each other but around each other. Bush has really brought this entire thing to a boil with his foreign policy called ignore. You can't ignore your rivals and think they will go away. It causes rebellion.... Duhhhhh

I wouldn't expect anything worthwhile out of Bush's mouth on the issue... He hasn't had anything to say worth while since he took office except lies to cover up prior lies.

I love the bit of news that came out about his getting congress to approve his "spying program" and using trumped up intelligence once again to create terror in the house and the senate to get them to authorize his criminal plan. Again... Shocked????

Yet we still have 29% of the nation that supports this Hitler want to be. We need to clean our own house before we worry about Iran and their comparable disaster. The scary thing is ours has more power and a much more treacherous mind. If you have any fear of Iran you better be looking at GWB first. He's much more of a threat to your quality of life than Iran will be for the next 20 years. Review what he has done to your constitution for starters….. Iran doesn’t even have nuclear power yet…. Who’s really a threat and to whom?

Bin Laden family Purchased Bush’s Loyalty Years Ago

I was watching Bill Maher last night and there was a bit of information that I think is extremely interesting. Did you know that the Bin Laden Family actually purchased GWB’s first failed business? An oil company that was in debt and dysfunctional; Like that is any surprise with that nit wit at the helm!!! No wonder 9-11 was scheduled after he became our “Decider”. He and his family knew there would be no repercussions for his actions. The Bush’s owed the Bin Laden’s big time!

Evidently as members of the “Carlyle Group” the Bush’s and the bin Laden’s have had many financial interactions. This makes the entire Middle East debacle much more understandable. We the American people are being BushWhacked into forcing money into the middle east while Bin Laden gets everything he wants. Our tax dollars are paying Cheney and his criminals to clean up the mess. We are paying “Black Water” to shoot people on site and again with no repercussions because our Decider has decided it to be what is in our best interest.

I think I’m going to be sick now….
