Supporting Bush Re Iraq, Asking Diplomacy For Detained Chinese Clergy.

Now, I'd rather have any "economic stimulus" (or as Pelosi's 'House Call' e-PSA said last weekend, "economic recovery") check sent to Iraq via the Bush military plan; we don't need to cannibalize funds just to let dangerous types consolidate power there against free people and Muslims, and to strangle strategics while doing as they please in expansion of their plots; neither do we need "stimulus" of in my case $600 if for every dollar we get we'd be enabling dynamics prices rise $10-$20 or more on oil and food and all.
 
Separately, Family Research Council today sent me its own e-PSA, which in part told me of Christian clergy still detained by the Communist Chinese government. Just because I'm involved in asking my own RC clergy if right for me to believe as someone tells me I'd "better", and I wouldn't do/not do that or ANYTHING for egalitarianism on someone else's part, nor would I endorse such being done to anyone on earth at all (come on, real tough guys don't kidnap like yammering babies in need of diaper changes, no matter where on earth), and most assuredly as I do not believe in going belly up against say Qaeda or domestic uber-criminals, I do not believe there is any matter whatsoever compelling the Chinese to "need" to hold ANY non-credibly-criminal clergy...what statement there to be made, on what need of the actual People of China in-house or outside? Surely, that somebody "might get me" for being Roman Catholic,  a Benedict XVI supporter, Republican, male, USA national, Conservative, ad infinitum is of no concern to me, and kidnapping or torturing or killing innocent Christians just to scare me in the USA...pals, that's exactly what Qaeda tries and tries, and like the Satan they serve, can never ever figure out they are never going anywhere with their malarkeys.
 
I hope Giulianis or Pelosis aren't just messing with Christ's divinity or authority to write catechisms and such, or re-writing/inventing Scripture, JUST to appease Laden, other thugs, that sort of thing...taking "cast-offs" from Latin dictators doesn't improve much for "God-hating" leaders there either, and wrecks havoc on our economy including for ever-mounting immigrants Cardinal George e.g. says "must be helped" (only his way doesn't work after too many years, so maybe lib theology's a clinker).  
 
To reiterate, I respectfully submit my endorsement of any and all funds for Iraq and the war on terror generally as President Bush may ask; I also respectfully request that the United States State Department inquire as to when the Chinese will either publicly try or release any and all Christian clergy they are detaining.

What If Pelosi, Giuliani, Obama And Such ARE Prophets Re Christianity?

It spontaneously occurred to me last night that I might actually be offending God through my belief in Christ, the Catholic Catechism, and teachings of Popes.
 
Many USA politicians today say that belief in Christ is terribly flawed, apparently based on amorphous amalgamated theology that sure...he did do all they say, it's just that he wasn't the son of God and thus drew power from non-Godly places, inviting all up to global warming if they don't act; to be sure, they and theirs are far more effective in life than any Christians these days. If that is true, then these politicians ARE prophets, and ARE right to urge turning from Christ; they don't besmirch all faith, just Christianity...that's why unchurched atheists can still be of interest, e.g.. It would seem that Albigensians were right, sort of...new prophets indicate that just those marked by Christ come from lines based upon un-Godly influences and despite their good intentions and acts are vessels of God's wrath, to be isolated as much as possible and reduced in future numbers.
 
Further to such theology appears to be some nature of power given by God to these New Prophets, to temporally absolve and bring into their aid clergy and laymen who, although they too have the irredeemable mark of Christ upon them even by involuntary birth baptism...no cursing of Christ will save God's final edict upon and against them, spiritually. Then these chosen laity and clergy of assorted "Christian" persuasions act thusly: from pulpits and TV screens, thunder in the words of this Christ, exhort his adherents to come on down, then effect little more than putting a whistle in your mouth, and go "tweet! tweet! tweet! Here they are self-identified, REAL God...now, thy Will be done upon them by thy servants!"...DO many Christians stand up to critics, DO they evangelize for Christ, ad infinitum? Please don't think that I harbor ill against them for founding new religiosity; if even Roman Catholic clergy would not deny the authority of political prophets, I certainly would not myself...clergy best knowing how to at least not work AGAINST true God, 'cause even though never destined for Heaven, I'd like to not provoke MORE trouble.
 
Here's how I intend to find out: at the very next opportunity for Reconciliation (a/k/a Confession), I shall confess that I have offended God either via seeking to return to Catholic faith which assorted numbers attest He doesn't seem to mind is on the way out, or simply through even doubting Jesus Christ is His Son. I say this as it seems in media many Confessionals these days are wired for sound, so no secrets here either.
 
If the Confessor says God wants me practicing RC faith AND the Confessor tells me he is glad I follow USCCB style Faithful Citizenship AND he too adores the Eucharist, well, that's why I'll stay in the faith. On the other hand, if holding his nose as "must serve ALL God's children, good and bad", hems or haws, or tells me I'm an idiot and he won't proceed, bingo! New Prophets rock at his Church, diocese, or archdiocese and I'm in the wrong place,  thus departing for good.
 
Either way though, the USA isn't a theocracy, so any "social redlining" based on the orthodoxies of New Prophets re Christianity has to stop outside of Church and end here in the real world, defined as that place where the Constitution operates...for me, other "Christian heretics and blasphemous beings", atheists, and assorted non-Christian faiths...remember, even the New Prophets intone and represent it's addiction to CHRIST that is bad, period.

Where The WORST Roman Catholic/Western Christian Bashing Comes From.

As everyone reading my Townhall blog knows, I've not been absent wilfully...i.e., in defiance of God...from my Roman Catholic Church since Easter; whenever I hear Presidential candidates, media, and assorted pols team up to label such Catholic ecclesia "Nazi, bitter, racist Crusaders", as PFAW mails a six-page letter re Bush and all Western faiths misspending millions in faith funds on the wrong people (?), I tend to jump out of Masses, especially where clergy are almost mum, the I stick with Vatican prayers and ephemera, watch EWTN, and really give issues a good shake as best I can...especially where some luminaries represent the Catechism and Canons to be worthless pieces of paper (as Catholics), meant to be makers of princes over us; some take the ad damnum into ALL Christianity for "failing" to acknowledge made-up Scripture re global warming, yet that's beside the point here.
 
To be sure, no other faith known to man gets pounded like my RC; a bazillionth of Priests molested somebody, so many say end that faith by any means; yet, a similar number of Muslims (small) have been terrorists, and nobody crusades against Lutheranism due to BTK killer being a Lutheran minister, e.g.; also, apparently BYZANTINE Catholic Canons somehow AREN'T avoidable...on and on it goes.
 
Some readers need to know that an Illinois State investigator was querying about me two days after I checked out a copy of the RC Catechism from the library, that being sole gist, prior to Benedict XVI in USA...I here so state.
 
As to the 2008 gang-up on Roman Catholicism to date, the upshot of much investigatory and political inquiry by me has shown it's all self-serving rodomontade, as if to promise there's a prize for folks if they get on the bandwagon...only don't ask what it is; any prize, IF any, appears to be in nature anticommunist/antisocialist Fulton Sheen then won't be canonized, or similar wind through fingers. In any case, no link to Vatican-faithful Catholicism and USA national security, Iraq, or economy drift has yet been shown.
 
Of course, some Cardinals and Bishops represent Benedict XVI is some "rouge" Pope, as if to say he's wrong about gays, wrong about opposing liberation theology of the Left, and wrong in the Eucharist and faith of the Catechism/Canons; which is odd, because as some clergy now grouse, pre-20005 so did Winnipeg Canada and other Bishops and Cardinals including against 1968 Humanae Vitae...yet Benedict XVI was elected by such grousers IN 2005. Theer is an air to this some clergy of rank fear losses to the faith, yet waffling on Benedict seems to undercut apostolic fruitfulness. As to Annual Appeal or anything else which can't be verified spent on even Catholic teaching the faith itself controls, I shall continue to withhold my pledge pending.
 
As to the clergy of my Parish, it has been satisafctorily established to me that they are what they represent to be; I cannot know if, at all, ala the tiny cadre of neckchain "Nametag Nazis" at my wife's Lutheran Church (did I mention they also photograph everyone at ALL Masses and functions, most never printed/posted?), my Parish lay committee members have outside interests coloring faith duties, membership rolls, and such...down to Monstrance unreadiness, listing my non-converted ELCA Lutheran wife and I as RC members first well after our absence and on heels of Obama's "bitter and clingy" opinion, and bulletin editing.
 
As to the attendees of various RC Masses at my Parish, nothing in their demeanor or speech indicates to me they are involved in more than worship in the traditional sense. On sight, they are about as "bitter and clingy" as Ward and June Cleaver, Edith Bunker, or Andy Taylor; they are adults, families, children, all ages...easily seen are Caucasians, African-Americans, Asians, and Hispanics together. While some may outwardly appear to stumble in "liturgical etiquette" at Masses, still, they truly desire worship of God, fellowship, and the Eucharist.
 
Wherefore, as my wife elects to keep attending her Lutheran Church (we were civilly married 20 years ago, no ministers thereafter to date) despite there lay committee malarkey, I too have concluded that there is absolutely no visible reason(s) to continue to worry soemthing is wrong with my Parish clergy or attending public, and as of yesterday I returned to their gathering. I would respectfully suggest anyone out there having doubts as I did, re clergy/faith, prudently research similarly, so that mere lay or political gossip or hype doesn't interfere with spirtual life.

MoveOn Full Of Beans On Renewed Iraq Malarkey.

Today's email included a PSA from MoveOn calling McCain just Bush, Bush full of beans about Iraq, McCain just keeping Iraq going...you know, there's an awful, awful lot of spew out there about "MUST.....LEAVE.....IRAQ! MUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSTTTTTTT!!".
 
Like Rudy Giuliani, Nancy Pelosi, and Ted Kennedy going to Communion with the Pope the other week even though said pols hardly are "up to Catholic liturgical snuff", Iraq yap is great distraction from reality; pols can say: "Liturgy means nothing, it's just codes and canons and such geared to keep you and me from God as if dogma exists to compel us to obey Priests and Cardinals and Popes"; pols can add "...except of course, if those Priests and such use that religion against OTHER folks not using it to support historically unproductive and counter-productive liberation theologies, unlike ME, so of course then using the religion to cast out or drive away others is holy"; and pols can conclude "so if you DO go to a Church which doesn't support ME you are a terrorist or fundamentalist or whatever sounds horrible, and of course government faith-funding, or buying homes and goods for clergy and pastoral staff and letting them say they invested well before retiring (where they live and might not necessarily be KNOWN as religious), is beyond imagination as coercing MY opinion or paying off for those who'll agree in shrinking faiths or at least shrinking members by any cause(s)"; and so forth...could account why some archdiocese refuse mention of EWTN or pictures of just Benedict XVI, for example...he doesn't support say/do anything to anyone just to further the assorted conditions one says they "seek liberation from".
 
Where religious goofballs and MoveOn meet, in terms of Iraq, is that the ideology of leaving Iraq NOW!!!!!!! is that we will then admit Hamas, Qaeda, and Latin dictators have a case against the USA, the USA will continue (even if on Town by Town, State by State basis) to have jurisdictions via eminent domain "nationalize" State and private assets/resources and treat all people as "human capital", together to be arranged by needs of politicians here and by dictators, liberation clergy, and those now called Islamic terrorists; of course, as currently this or that Federal money upon receipt is directed to the effort, and being compliant with foreign leaders who say then there'll be "no trouble" from them, hey...who needs border patrols, THAT many cops, ANY military, or Iraq? No big whoop, bubala...just get us outta Iraq pronto to pay for the next wave, and keep fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong until the rarefied control group of amorphous elitists has pulled the last possible penny before the bubble bursts.
 
For the record, I don't care if gays are ordained Priests or people have same-sex or other carnal acts on Catholic altars, or take payoffs to divide liturgical content to misinform say "traditional" or "contemporary" or "Spanish-only" Churchgoers, or pray to Satan...that is their soul they gamble with, God doesn't "deliver justice through actus rea of people", and I do not believe you can try to fool or disregard God or say "oops!" when you own time comes; I just know part of not disobeying is not continuing to simply associate with folks who appear to be reasonably moved by other than God in holding Masses, and it's enough for me to try and find another Catholic diocese...I did live a life without attending for 30 years, after all, although faithful as was possible to the catechism and words of John Paul II and Benedict XVI...but why would some say I should be "of interest" for going to Church/not going simple?
 
What I DO respectfully submit is that MoveOn is but another such distraction, often substituting say Petraeus for the Pope and Wes Clark for liberation clergy; most importantly, all polemics on Iraq miss the point the intent of so doing is to appease Islamic terror liberationist theologies not even popular with most MUSLIMS, so that in appeasing Latin and other liberationists their dictators have no impetus to depart or change, the USA winds up with their "castoffs", and all this has to be paid for by cannabilizing all public funds including defense and military...on precept the social health comes before the individual, sold to foreigners by liberationists that many in the USA "disobey God" by "violating" Romans 13:1-2...even where a Federal and State Constitution are the "ruler appointed by God", then.
 
Library News Sidebar: Warren-Newport library in Gurnee Illinois was closed yesterday for staff inservice; upshot appears to be they just installed a new recording system for your library card account: used to be it just showed what was checked out, but now will be editably able to produce a permanent record of EVERYTHING you ever check out.

Racism Not Even Tethered To Opposing Global Poverty Act.

Much of USA cable media was abuzz today with stories suggesting three-toothed oneites have more than they can handle re the economy and personal finances, and only worry more iimigrants would cut into their action; wrapped around were those again depicting that under-exposed, under-educated, and non-English speaking Mexican woman of Chicago sanctuary fame, starry eyed that these Anglos in El Norte are cavorting over her and her sons as if they are the new Messiahs, going to liberate the needy or desperate of Latin America from the GOP international Devil and selfishly over-indulgent USA nationals...while she may have no idea that the same HR 1955 motifs and high prices Latinos elsewhere face will only greet them here.
 
Are some people involved in this or that dialectical racism(s)? Sure! The world over, because like ADD or addiction or swearing or other vices, SOMEBODY is going to go rude or blue throughout all time. But that doesn't mean that anybody of any stripe, anywhere on earth and in any language, who believes only a total objectivist would let a blindfolded person walk into a deep hole, has to be of purest heart before their shout of "Look Out!" should be considered or permitted.
 
That's how most folks, regardless of stripe, origin, or Churched or "un-Churched" status, view the exploitation of folks like that sanctuary "poster child" into believing all's so economically and trade cool in the USA there's room for infinite people with plenty left over...and stories like 2007 subprime elastic or food prices are myths, to boot; many diverse people have indicated to me they see THAT kind of mentality as one of the worst cases of racism against non-Whites or non-English speakers.
 
Alongside, they so represent to me that, like me, they believe an toward then national material and human capital to adjust outcomes "proving" calculations of the State, business, or both, is near or at the pinaccle of elitism.
 
Wherefore, I continue to urge opposition or veto of Senator Obama's Global Poverty Act, as same through its terms seems to sound in both within aforesaid notions.

Obama Global Poverty Act Just Fishing For More Let-Down Immigrants.

William F. Buckley, Jr, in his 1968 collection "The Jeweler's Eye", reprinted comments from Senator Kennedy's first Senate term, comments which represented his basic and now lifelong personal belief that simply by giving jobs, commerce production, farms, and ESPECIALLY cash to Latin America and other places, JUST LIKE THAT all poverty evaporates, the USA isn't harmed, and immigrants here and still in nations of origin are instantly well-off, no need to look back; certainly, President Clinton et al have been uber-generous that way, and lo! Poverty is still in ALL those places...rampant, we're told, high costs versus income THERE also counted as "poverty"...as are the same-old same-old dictators and clergy who profit from the whole thing, and the Kennedy Klan's answer? Why, toss more money at it all and click ruby-red slippers while crossing your fingers, squinting.

Within below remaining text is verbatim as received from the American Conservative Union; myself believing it should not pass unless it contains final text saying all Congress members who support it will immediately resign and vacate their positions, if, upon cash flowing out in liberation theology appeasements, terror in the world doesn't stop, all nations don't immediately start respecting human rights, and all dictators and despots don't immediately leave global offices; otherwise, it's the same-old with even MORE losses to the USA and any conditions abroad which such legislators PROMISE can be cured by a barrage of cash THIS time FOR SURE, especially since it masks immigrants are then to be ported here in usual ways and spend that cash into the same few pockets, and is WHAT Iraq funds would be spent on; that ACU text I have read and afreed with, and is, to-wit:

"S.2433, the Global Poverty Act, may come up for a vote at any time and I am urging you to do everything in your power to stop its passage.
 
Obviously the concept of eliminating poverty around the world would appear, on the surface, to be a good thing. And since no one wants to be on the record as not wanting to combat poverty, you will -- without a doubt -- feel pressure from some of your less courageous peers and the media to let this horrendous bill pass!
 
It is not humane to burden the American taxpayer with billions in additional foreign aid. It is more than unacceptable. And moreover, if history is to be our guide, these monies often wind up lining the pockets of third-world tyrants and bureaucrats who hate America and do very little to help those who are truly in need -- remember the Oil for Food scandal!
 
The American people will be watching and will not tolerate massive United Nations style giveaways that are passed in the dark of night -- or in broad daylight for that matter.  Expose S. 2433 for what it is; a stealth bill and a dagger aimed at the heart of America's sovereignty. I urge you to stand firm for what is right and not to buckle under the pressure. Filibuster if you must but kill S. 2433 by any means necessary!"

Decoding DNC Iraq Ad, Buzzwords Crusade And Faith-Clinging.

When one hears, say, Bill Maher call the Pope a Crusader, one puzzles, as the Pope heads the Roman Cayholic Church at the Vatican; the Vatican but for a few shrines in the Mid East is manifestly a Western faith separated from Byzantine Catholicism (Greek Orthodox, Rutherian, Eastern Orthodox, Armenian, et al) since 1050 A.D.; to call the Pope a Crusader against Islam sounds moronic at best, so some say "heh, heh...ol' Maher or whoever, heh heh, just trying to link Iraq to SOMETHING for his Democrat friends! Lighten up, jeez!".
 
When one hears say Obama call religious people in Pennsylvania...specifically that State, notice...one puzzles why a man who clawed so hard to look so progressively ecumenical (well, at least tried as best he personally cared to) would knock even Democrats in a crucial vote and first then at that; "aw jeez...you again! Come on, Obama's just trying to spiff his anti-racism and anti-nationalism credentials for the immigrant votes, as everybody knows Pennsylvania is the new South! Jeez, lighten up, heh heh! Nobody's out to pick on Popes or faiths at random, they're trying to get poor troops out of Iraq and get gays married to stay on the cutting edge of green and progress!".
 
Well...not so fast.
 
In 1960, a Brazilian professor and lawyer started something called Tradition Family And Property (TFP), a voluntary association of Roman Catholics to peaceably oppose any nature of communism or socialism or anything acting like it; their website is http://www.tfp.org/. Since 1973, FTP has had offices throughout Europe and the Western Hemisphere; their primary compass is the 1937 Encyclical of Pope Pius XI titled Divini Redemptoris, a Vatican online copy of which is currently viewable at http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/pius_xi/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xi_enc_19031937_divini-redemptoris_en.html; said Encyclical at length identifies socialistic traits of society with which the Vatican disagrees, and FTP remians a docile thinktank for advancing the gravamen in Europe and the West via peaceable means; you'll never guess, their USA office is located in Pennsylvania...and the name of their magazine: Crusade.
 
Thus, it is entirely possible that those mocking the Vatican and Western faiths Protestant thereto or in any confraternity with it (as opposed to USA Roman Catholic bailiwicks here and there supporting opposite Benedict XVI and his disapproval of liberation theology http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberation_theology) are actually targeting the Vatican and FTP for opposing socialized and nationalized practices, and thus by extension anyone else at all who sounds in similar disapproval(s) thereof.
 
Makes more sense than making infinite one-liners followed by infinite brush-off apologists, and is humbly presented for consideration by the reader. And as Howard Dean's new DNC youtube ad re Iraq shows, without borders or military or troops in Mid East, and Hamas, Qaeda, and worse liberation theolgies to be indulged so this bad ol' USA knows its place, with the itchy trigger fingers and seeing reward for their violence, and Democrats believing even troops and police should run from terrorists and not at least contain them, here's all we risk at home in trusting goodwill of foreign killers who just would need to SAY they're Qaeda to get Democrat Cash: https://www.democrats.org/page/contribute/FundIraqAd?source=NETA764 ...and you thought never having private home ownership or work was bad...well, um, yeah...get outta Iraq, IT'S causing recession not handouts to misinformed immigrants re mortgages and stuff, and with an urbane Dem Prez, what would we risk having no borders...it's not like Dems wanna cannibalize Iraq funds for domestic status quo expansions or socialism, 'cuz they sez so.

"Change" Or Bishop To Free Trade G8?

I sometimes accompany my wife to her Waukegan IL Lutheran Church, at her request, even though I'm RC. Earlier this year we were abraded by "Nametag Nazis", a cadre of members with ties to State retirement, licensures, and work in secular life; these folks have gotten themselves on steering committees, which ala area RC Churches have annually for years scheduled adult religious/conversion classes for Spring, then cancelled to Fall, thence to Spring, repeat on and on; they all wear neckchain nametags at Mas and are eclipsed by those w/o same yet regularly at Masses; yesterday in his sermon, the Pastor actually said a man had just died from the congregation, and described him specifically as a man "not a member, but a devout and beloved visitor for years"...like I said, those committee folks form the only official "members" including for "stance of all congregants" ephemera.
 
For a couple months, my wife and I experienced not a peep from these folks who back in Lent didn't hate me so much for being RC as they did for supporting Benedict XVI...I understand doing so undercuts their "synergy" with RC Cardinal George in uniting Illinois religions toward their way of thinking. Well, yesterday these folks...despite many empty pews...came in late, HAD to have our pew, and kept pushing us down the whole way; my wife sat elsewhere, I always believing those who make pretense of any religion are to be avoided went all the way out to a small seat by the outer exit to wait for my wife.
 
As best I can make out, the Nametag Nazis so assaulted us due to that RC Bishop, chastised by JPII in and since 1983 and having liberation theology itself condemned by Benedict, "winning" a seat in Latin American government; it appears Nametag Nazis will use this with the RC Church here to bolster Democrats or anyone wishing to keep flooding the USA and Illinois directly with immigrants simple. Rationale appears, ala Pelosi and her Biblical passage re global warming only she can find, to ask how anyone can be Godly and not obey the immigration pleas of clergy...especially now that "change!" is in Latin air.
 
Well, if Benedict were to embrace liberation theology, yawn...in the material sense, does it appear to work its purposes in countries of origin or the USA? Many Lake County IL businesses keep closing w/o relocation announced, area homes keep getting foreclosed, and all that's coming is more New Urban home/strip mall motifs...looking at last year's mortgage fiasco and immigrant costs debacles, does merely struggling to find ever-changing ways to justify it all make it somehow then successful in real life?
 
Oh, and let's not forget those who push for "Godly liberation" also propose that God hates America for its failure to do so, yet embrace abortion as child healthcare, same-sex non-reproduction as a teachable lifestyle, suggest appeasing ALL (even Hamas, Qaeda) liberation theology, and government ownership of all housing with strict HR 1955 powers to States and Towns with green more important than industry; clergy supporting such voice include a Chicago Cardinal who lives in a mansion with chauffeurs and is on the USCCB Executive Committee (quite a solitary light to shine against a Pope one otherwise says is faith infallible, let alone USA parish funds and charities); such clergy also now rely on "proof" such stuff is popular with Hispanics due to Bishop's election...and forget it's SO deadly for him he's lived there 30 years as an anti-government yapper against the dictator, obviously accomplished nothing, won in a place otherwise said to be dubious due to no-trail dictator voting, and will just exhort Bush not to build fences...some engine of faith or change.
 
Be like Benedict XVI re clergy and Pelosi Biblers and God-haters: all are God's creation, even when they err...pray for them; in the secular sense, even if somebody believed getting to a USA mortgage and handouts would forever save them, does it seem in their or a nation's best interests to humor them, or to undercut apostolic efforts and introduce Socialist methods to then make things fit? Or are we Conservatives right: liberation theology and politics, whether Qaedan or Latin American or otherwise, is just a tool of those seeking totalitarian fiefdoms.

There Is NO Right Wing Conspiracy Just Amorphous Elitism.

As churches, seminaries, monasteries, and religious bookstores pare to a "necessary for stagecraft" Soviet-style few, mostly via New Urban design (q.v., Becket Fund), to keep Christians quiet totemic propoganda proliferates; no single party behind it, just a concert of amorphous elitists (as Fulton Sheen defined elitism); effect is to induce alienation ala "only psychos who need shackling cling to faith".
 
"Necessaries" can provide sacraments, but only if painting Christ as myth, aiding posing of elitists as "laity/officials serving God via liberation theology helping array of oppressed", or both...gays part of "liberated".
 
Results: Islamic terror theology validated if not embraced (e.g., Carter-Hamas); Los Angeles seeks perks for jihadists; abortion is too often the ONLY child healthcare many will pay for; USA strategics given away/cannibalized to "keep economy humming"; living as contracepted or same-sex couples taught as desireable...and to say gay life needs teaching supports same IS learned or reflexive responsive to life IN HUMANS, plus leads to less people yet is not a "natural engendering".
 
Purpose: Ala Soviets and other tinhorns, induce sense of alienation from "licentious norm" under which media myth one is submerged regardless of personality, so that no one talks  against further myth USA is 1960's-style industrial-military edifice needing green/able to support infinite immigrants well but for nationalists/racists/Church Nazis/foreigners already here but "too lazy or dumb to cut mustard".
 
Conclusion: Especially since gagging Western faiths won't tether to Byzantine Christianity and Jews and others amid Muslim world and against whom terrorists actually chafe and label Crusaders, as a Roman Catholic I stand by the catechism of Benedict XVI, and insofar as confraternity with all Western Christians, I stand by my Vatican 1970 New Testament re Divinity of Christ; I also continue to pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy and Rosary for all of us on earth, especially those for those who do not believe in God at all...thus their use of moral relativity which would undercut their endgame if I and most other folks had been aborted, at conception or as we arrived greeted by scissors and a brain-sucking catheter.

Educate Them All Act (HR 2092) Just Another Socialist-Themed Text Under Title.

H.R. 2092 sets about giving 72 million choldren globally an eduaction, as if to say the USa should just spend a gazillion dollars on global kids' educations, quality thereof no barrier to expense, quality of life in dictatorships no barrier, no barrier if dictators sop up funds sent (ala State and Cities here who misspend), and no way of addressing repayment or addressing reason all then come HERE to live ala mortgage fiasco of 2007 inter alia...really pushes that vision of an HR 1955/total socialist State, though.
 
In that this legislation essentially has an end product of failure on top of monumental cost not even our burden, or at least singular burden, I respectfully submit my opposition to H.R. 2092.
 
Er, um...Democrats WILL tell folks this is just a canard, in that the Education for All Act is another nice titled stinker CALCULATED to do nothing but give "cause" to call GOP "obstructionist child haters"...won't they? And now, back to asking what Democrats like Blagojevich and Daley have been spending all that do-re-mi on for years.

McCain And Kerry Agree Iraq Not Draining Economy.

Waffle! Gitcher waffles fer just "change!"! Servin' up good un's like: Dems say China very good in 1960's, very bad in 2008, or maybe not! (Sorry, couldn't resist.)
 
Surely, it doesn't take ANY kind of partisan to remember that throughout his 2004 Presidential campaign, Senator Kerry made it a mantra to say: "You can't fight a war on the cheap!" in re Iraq; he and booster General Wes Clark (father of VoteVets) were fond of telling troops: "Help is on the way!"; Kerry also said you can't "just throw up" your hands re Iraq; even Howard Dean thought Kerry should've won in 2004.
 
In 2008, amid all the incense and peppermint, wishes for somebody to love, and singing along to "War Pigs", oh how the Democrat times have been a-changin'...and other 1960's stuff visible only to them.
 
Indeed, if one bothers to look at ALL war spending, one of even grade-school math comprehension can calculate Iraq has been a drop in the bucket compared to money sent to each and every State as well as Towns...for everything from healthcare to roads to farms to transit to education and beyond. Yes, 2004 hopeful John Kerry WAS right that Iraq is USA security on the cheap, if not right why.
 
Recently Senator John McCain said that the economy has been much improved over the past eight years, and going by what's been paid for by the Federal government to sub-governments, as reflected by many high local salaries, and including DHS and assorted disaster/emergency funds, things SHOULD be relatively hunky-dory most places...Illinois even reduced job help, foodbanks, and shelter services in reflection of their own prosperity, if now hemming and hawing re same. 
 
Yet in Illinois for example, a State 100% Democrat-run since 2002, what has the State made monies received be spent upon? Apart from Churches, Roman Catholic and thereto Protestant, which practice gay to global liberation theology, it seems little money had by Illinois (even its own income taxes) gets spent on anything it's sent for...except say big dollars for faith-funding ultra-anti-gay Byzantine Catholic faith of which Democrat Gov. Blagojevich is a member, even if BYZANTINE is the biggest Christianity Muslims yap about in the Mid East and Democrats say the Roman Catholic POPE is "a Crusader" who won't "modernize".
 
The latest resurgence of Illinois "Hate Bush!" and "gimme Iraq funds NOW!" butt cover: yesterday on local CLTV, Mayor Daley was shown in renewed whining Chicago has this aging fleet of transit vehicles, blah, blah, blah, boo-hoo, and of course it's all due to folks who can't see yesterday is water under the bridge and now won't keep coughing up without strings (idea: do something first, submit bills). And we already know what Illinois Senator Obama thinks about folks who won't support liberation theology or think it will ever go away...here, in Iran, in Iraq, in Syria, in Ladenland, or elsewhere. Maybe McCain was right to stall more funds to STATES for vets; maybe all the cash already sent should have accounting.
 
For such res gestae as a commoner may observe, I again reiterate my support of George Walker Bush; of Pope Benedict XVI; and of any defensive or economic USA confraternity with other nations which does not require any in such confraternity to meld or give up its sovereignty...which latter point cannot be implied by mere presence of immigrants.

Liberation Theology Indeed Seems Crux Of All Political Matters.

Global warming is now equated with being a problem bigger than WWII, as Time magazine (parent company of Bill Maker's HBO which is his forum for calling ROMAN Catholics Nazis) this week shows in its opinion; trees lifted in lieu of Old Glory, meaning such patriotic service to the USA and free people everywhere, and the martyrs at hands of declared war enemy nations (Auschwitz, 9/11, et al) and rotters, pales in contrast to the biggest baloney ever stuffed into an Al Gore-sized casing.
 
Global warming is not caused by anything in the USA as Gore mentions, since you need tons of manufacturing and agricultural concerns belching mega-pollution 24/7, like it was in the 1960's and as Democrats and amorphorous elitists constantly tell non-English speakers the USA STILL is. Tempting to say just one hippo hurricane holler from Gore could generate a week's worth of polar caps melting, but let's be bigger than that.
 
That's how global warming ties into liberation theology...remember, liberators in USA elected and political offices are "liberating" folks abroad from dictators, and locating them in a 1960's industrial-military edifice still polluting, still having jobs aplenty, still driven by WASPS and related or thereto reactive racists, still dripping with education money, only uber-constricting liberty of USA nationals and Uncles/Tios Tomas for the sake of women's rights and "the chillldddrrreeennnnn!!!" who are bitter liberated good people are here at all when there's plenty for all plus a trillion times over, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Of course, sidebars include stuff like redlining out of say gay marriage attacks uber-strict Islam, Byzantine (Blagojevich/Durbin) Catholicism, and Jews, so that only Roman Catholicism and thereto Protestants (largest groups in the West) are compelled by State faith funders and elitists at-large to A) accept care of the "liberated" or else; B) LOOK like the reason "noble" officials HAVE to keep the New Urban, less job intensive, high credit and prices economy as it is going on and on...yep, even if we just all have to say partake of the same liberation theology of Hamas, Qaeda, Iran, Marxists, and do what it takes to anyone to make sure THAT kind of Crusade works...yes, strip defenses and police and borders and whatever it takes to pay...only the bitter can lose in that, and YOU aren't bitter....ARE you? Better give me your name and whereabouts, comrade...... . Unless there's another reason(s) an Illinois State Police plainclothesman stopped by, two days after I checked out the Catechism of the Catholic Church, to ask my landlord about me generally and to ask me what kind of stuff I read (there is an ILLINOIS DHS office, not just U.S., with PATRIOT and State law no-warrant over library records, apartments, hotels); that was last week, and I note the Chicago archdiocese and its Churches in Lake and Cook Counties refuse to put up pictures of Benedict XVI and do not approve for posting or bulletins regular reminders to watch global Catholic network EWTN.
 
For these reasons, I continue to support George Walker Bush in re Iraq, war on terror, diplomacy, and national security; and I continue to support prohibition against liberation theology as expressed by Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI.

Latest Synergy Of Moral Relativity And Liberation Theology.

Amongst the latest morally relative positions emerging due to a motif "anything but meat and potatoes address of the results of liberation theology impacting the recession, because nobody wants it to stop, just activity in lieu of action":
 
1. PFAW today sent an email PSA, which as its opener says quote:
 
   "H.R.2831, which has already been passed by the House, remedies a terrible Supreme Court decision regarding protections against pay discrimination in the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Because the Court's decision had to do with a piece of legislation and not the Constitution, Congress can amend the current law to make the language clearer and more explicit about the original act's intent -- and thus correct the Court."
 
    Um, that means the Supreme Court said a law as written contained improper language in the first place, probably something regardless of party folks voted for to get through the day without really doing anything; the Court sent it back; Congress merely has option to amend and let's hope Democrats won't try to slip in "Hail Hamas!" or something just to make GOP look the obstructionists while the tempest of words yet again trumps "huh? Economy? Oh, just change who's in! Works EVERY time, no?".
 
2. Howard Dean is named in a DNC e-PSA today telling me McCain is going to be advertised against for saying the economy is better off now than eight years ago; curiously, especially abroad and in languages everywhere which aren't English, many Democrats and Liberals describe the USA as a 1960's and better economy with a mammoth industrial-military complex run by racists, nationalists, and Uncles/Tios Tom/Tomas...plenty of room for many many more immigrants on public doles and credit (mortgages), who COULD be working but for the GOP and such aforesaid miscreants.
 
    Kudos to the McCain camp for out-thinking moral relativists of the Left: now the GOP has opponents locked into admission no such 1960's edifice exists. Maybe now the debate about what to change about it can be better advanced.
 
Otherwise, today it appears the Democrat-liberation theology wing of Christianity is in sympatico again, in that two days ago Chicago Cardinal George denounced the Pope as begging for mercy on gay priests who molest children (boy, he sure doesn't forgive or change dogma, unless he's cheering for Obama to succeed in efforts to have liberation activists ala Hamas/Laden re-write all non-Jewish, non-Muslim, non-Asiatic, and non-BYZANTINE Catholic scripture texts to validate Church gay marriage or strongarm economics to liberate folks into the USA or call Christ Himself symbolic at best if He ever was here); today, oh, three months after they stopped our six-week temp envelopes (when some opined NOT appearing a Church member made one of interest), my wife and I received Our Lady Of Humility envelopes from Insta-Sets in Salem OH (a month after we officially notified all we would not be attending due to liberation theology still in force under Cardinal George, and as Obama et al now posit BEING a Church member simple should make one of interest generally); and Family Research Council has today placed me in USPS receipt of a PSA which says gays will crash and protest assorted Churches Mother's Day and Father's Day to raise hell and protest that Churches (same exceptions as aforementioned)MUST re-write texts of Scripture to say homosexuals are parents created in God's image and family design...and FRC asks my support of any clergy so beset (but only via signing a pledge to pray for them).
 
My opinion is homosexuals are entitled to whatever the State enacts as civil union; but given the fact almost nobody ever really IS gay or bi or transgendered, I think it is atrocious some are first making non-heterosexuals support attack upon Christians who don't support liberation theology before granting them THEIR OWN acceptance as such liberators...come on, even non-heteros know it's selective attack, as Byzantine Catholics, Jews, Muslims, and Asian faiths and such are left alone, only those in confraternity against liberation theology targeted.
 
But it sure drives home how so many Muslims abroad who are not like liberation theologians must feel under the pressures of al-Qaeda, Hamas, MyMood Alibabjihad, and such. For these reasons, I reiterate my support of George Walker Bush re national security, foreign affairs, and diplomacy; I reiterate my support of Pope Benedict XVI in my faith; if any Chicago archdiocese Church expects me to be a member, they must first renounce publicly any filiation(s) to liberation theology and all its forms of deus ex machina; and I shall continue to pray for all of us together, that we may all better open our hearts and minds to the true voice of God and turn from such foolishness as within aforementioned.

Linking Recession To Liberation Theology.

I am a fifth-generation Chicagoan by birth, and an umpteenth Roman Catholic by same virtue. Around 1978, I ceased participating with archdiocese Churches in that same were then launching into liberation theology focused on Eastern Europe and Latin American dictatorships; the mantra was say/do anything to or about anybody who interferes with the plan to get people "evacuated" into the West and especially USA, without regard for character of anyone or chances of effecting change in their homelands...you see, God in their opinion will absolve any false witness or other mortal sins based on the doing for least of brethren (as defined by such theologists).
 
Wouldn't you know, I had exactly the same views as then Pope John Paul II and then Josef Cardinal Ratzinger on the theory of liberation theology (a term you can research on wikipedia and elsewhere for yourself): essentially, "guh-heh-hayyy! Ptooey!!". And now, folks like Pope Benedict and I STILL oppose use of Roman Catholicism for liberation theology...such practice is exactly what Marx, Al-Qaeda, MyMood Alibabajihad, Hamas, Che Gueverra, and such use(d): active and militant interference with assorted governments who don't do your will, absolute fielty and whatever strongarming it takes to work hand-in-glove with officials supporting you...parishioners and the global public at-large wholly irrelevant to you crusade, you see. Not exactly what most sane people interpret as God or Christ ever intending in re Divine assistances and graces.
 
Now last evening local media here in Illinois represented Cardinal George of the Chicago archdiocese as saying the focus of the Pope's trip to the USA last week was to crawl on kneepads 24/7 for six days begging mercy from all passersby for the "sex scandals"...yep, right up onto getting onto Shepherd I in good riddance. Well, why would the Cardinal say that, let alone institute archdiocese-wide lip service to Benedict and abject disobedience during the week?
 
Because he and most Illinois politicians, especially say Daley and Democrats like Durbin, Obama, Blagojevich, thirst heavily to keep liberation theology in place as their and their business-political orthodoxy's pockets stuffed with cash while saying/doing anything to anyone...little guys and homeless up to police and military and Skull & Bones grads...who suggests that maybe, just maybe, years and years of expanding that modus operandi now almost everywhere has led to little more than planning away commercial and agricultural places, filling everything with cheaply made New Urban housing, and mega-debts from public healthcare, Social Security, foodstamps, and of course home mortgage fiascos that SOMEHOW such liberators managed to spend, Iraq notwithstanding. You see, say/do anything no matter how YOU or THEY end up, at least souls are saved from oppression and only oppressors would say they're simply trading on form for another...accomplishing less than nothing except for pockets of liberators.  
 
This liberation theology today is thusly run and executed via States and Towns via faith funding to ensure compliance by ALL faiths within their borders in uniformity of applications, many of which are actually induced by officials with itchy fingers twittering near the "eminent domain" and "worse!" buttons...maybe Cardinal George isn't witnessing falsely against Benedict freely, and just hasn't faith enough to persevere to the contrary; pray for such people and forgive them, as well as for those who may do any elective office-backed Bogarting...as Christ suggests, they know not what they do nor who they are really doing work for. 
 
So the next time somebody exhorts you to say/do anything to support activity contrary to President Bush or Benedict XVI...someone tells you all moral relativity is good for a greater end...ask them how doing more of the same can POSSIBLY produce more of the same here and from nations from which the "liberated" come.
 
The rest of us, remember...any moral relativist not intending validly engaging in bona fide propoganda against foreign enemies or true criminals is Bogarting you, crying to you, slamming anyone before you, selling you fears and "less is more", ad infinitum, because they have so worn down the USA Treasury, they literally have to now use every defense and border and educational dollar to keep it going after the general election...you'll have "change!" in your pocket, all right...until the liberators smell it. Big helps to the cause of changing foreign dictators and domestic pursuits of happiness, no matter what type of USA national or immigrant thereto, eh? Sure explains why some places say NOT going to Church simple makes you "of interest", and in other places FOR going, though.
 
I continue to support President Bush re foreign affairs, diplomacy, and national security; I continue to adhere to the catechism and teachings of Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI...even if I have simply withheld my attendance at Chicago archdiocese Roman Catholic Churches after briefly returning earlier this year after decades of non-attendance; at first I was  told those today told to "tulip" and hold hands communally were just "praying contemporary-style, don't be so closed to changes", but later some told me they do that because it's to show solidarity with one another and those they're liberating, not because they pray.

Pope-Iraq Link Not Working, MoveOn Aims For Recession-Iraq Pipe Dream.

Rather than get bogged down with lil' ol' thangs like, oh, "so all Federal and State and Local and job and mortgage money is ALL rolled  into one bag and spent in or on Iraq" is a mega-huge whopping lie, hey...at least some poll shows voters BELIEVE that, and wouldn't it just cause candidates to lose control of their campaigns if they had to not just bloviate thusly, they further had to have specific amounts of money then "from Iraq" they'd spend on specific things including in relation to immigrants?
 
Hey, just say "Yeeeaaarrrrrrgggghhhhhhh!!!!" and whine that Iraq is costing us gazillions, Bush and GOP caused it, duh wese never gets no Fed bucks from dat Bush so's how could we'a mis-spenderized it, it's time for "change", everybody votes you in, nothing changes, except for then you can use the other dodge of perhaps saying Christians are bitter clingers on fantasy and need HR 1955, or a litany of proven intimidations and fears the blowing upon of hot air alone stands in stead of IDEAS and COSTS and SPECIFICITIES of "change(s)". Besides, hasn't Obama's campaign done well telling activists not talking points, just urging them "YOU know...we give YOU Hispanic voters phone numbers, YOU call them, and, you know, um, tell them um SOMETHING Obama has done just for them and media and conspiracies are blocking...you know, moral relativity".
 
Oh yes...and then we kiss Hamas and Iranian and Laden toenails, and like since Carter in 1979 while we get out of Iraq becuase it's a civil war, I mean a Crusade, oh that's right for sure THIS election it most definitely is the retroactive cause of all USA and global warming, recession, and inflation...yep, just from where everything is right now plus limitless acceleration of same it'll REALLY somehow be different just 'cause we're out of the Mid East and have no bases or military or borders...have Libs ever steered someone wrong? You don't think THEY'D be tempted by no-trail voting in THEIR turfs, do you? No, people WANT them in and that's that and on mass majority shouts for them to do as they please "like Bush" who's "making" them do whatever for now.    
 
 I stand with Bush and Conservative candidates. All I get from the other sides is super-spinning for poll numbers, and not much effort at all from them on how they'd change anything with metrics, costs, and schematics re the social abstraction, and what they HAVE offered as "agenda on hold" until after they get in is so far to the totalitarian side BUSH seems like a hippie liberal.
