President Bartlet (Martin Sheen): I like how you call homosexuality an abombination.
Jenna Jacobs: I don't say homosexuality is an abomination, Mr. President, the Bible does.
President Bartlet: Yes, it does. Leviticus.
Jenna Jacobs: 18:22.
President Bartlet: Chapter and verse. I wanted to ask you a couple of questions while I have you here. I'm interested in selling my youngest daughter into slavery as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. She's a Georgetown sophmore, speaks fluent Italian, always cleared the table when it was her turn. What would a good price for her be? While thinking about that, can I ask another? My Chief of Staff Leo McGarry insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly says he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself or is it okay to call the police? Here's one that's really important because we've got a lot of sports fans in this town: touching the skin of a dead pig makes one unclean. Leviticus 11:7. If they promise to wear gloves, can the Washington Redskins still play football? Can Notre Dame? Can West Point? Does the whole town really have to be together to stone my brother John for planting different crops side by side? Can I burn my mother in a small family gathering for wearing garments made from two different threads? "Think about that, will you? Oh, and one last thing. You may have mistaken this for your meeting of the ignorant tight-asses club but in this building, when the President stands, nobody sits.

Sarah Palin - items against the extremist
1) Sucessionist Group member - one that wasn't just we should leave if things don't get better - but one that would use armed insurrection to do so - Alaskan Independence Party - their methods are treasonist if they actually followed-thru. AND if the dems had done anything near this in their past they would be tried for treason.
2) Sought to get books banned and fired people to get it done from libraries in Wasilla and then the state as a whole
3) Want creationism taught in all schools before and more emphasised than evolution
4) anti-choice - NO MATTER what the situation
5) demanded and fired employees for not signing "loyalty oath cards," - loyalty to HER.
6) Her church - http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/02/palins-church-may-have-sh_n_123205.html
7) Extremist NRA member
8) Believes in Witchcraft and that god tells her what is right and wrong - isn't that (a) what the "enemy" says, and (b) what Bush has said for years?

McCain v. Obama
Economic Stimulus - bailout aside...
McCain - LOWER the tax rate for largest corporations from 35% to 25% (on what is "taxable"). Would remove "barriers" from corporations which prevent them from functioning at their best...
- because this worked so well with the energy industry that we applied these same ideas and methods to other industries. Yes, thanks to Bush and McCain we've already adopted Enron methods to such things as the oil training industry and to the banks! That is continuing to work out well, isn't it??? (BTW - opec cannot pump anymore oil because there is no-where to send it... The real reason prices are so high is because of the market system... speculators rasining the prices? - why yes, because they are ALL speculators - THAT HOW A MARKET SYSTEM WORKS - idiots!)
Obama wants to give tax-cuts to the middle class to inspire healthy economic issues for the MIDDLE CLASS!!!

$18,000,000 for 3 weeks on the job?????
WaMu - the largest bank to fail in HISTORY -'s CEO is to earn about $18M for only 3 weeks on the job... Alan Fishman is another bank leader to take a nice severance.
GRANTED - WaMu's debts are now all JPMorgan-Chase's debts, but it still shows how the upper level rich people continue to get richer while the rest of us get sh!t upon. That is what Reaganomics really is - the rich get richer and the rest of us get sh!t on - hopefully there is undigested money in the poo with which we can pay for food.

And who is this?
This is Miss Misty. She is a 9yr old Black Lab! She's a little overweight; but was spoiled by her previous bipeds. They were an elderly couple who shared their life with her from nearly after her birth - 30 June, 1999. Unfortunately her "father" died from a heart-attack and her "mother" was then put into a nursing home. She was sent to the lab-rescue.
Mari and I adopted her 20 Sept 2008! She's the cutest thing! Whines a little; however, she misses the only bipeds with which she ever lived. Today she had a spay and got a whole bunch of dental work done. The vet said she came out of the surgeries fine and recovered well. We should hopefully be able to pick her up tomorrow and bring her back home!
Misty is actually AKC certified, if anyone is impressed by that. I just find it funny that we now know more about our puppy's bloodline than about our own put together! LOL!

Yesterday
Yesterday marked 9 years since Mari and I got married. At that time, I thought I was marring my best-friend. But that would imply that we were as close as we could be. Over the past nine years, we've grown closer together in all ways - not that we ever thought that was possible... I'm looking forward to being together for at least 10 times longer than that, if not longer! I don't know what lies ahead, but I do know that no matter what happens we'll continue to become closer and closer!
God, I love her!
God, I love her!

last thought today
Give me LIBERTY or give me DEATH!
This holds true - we've lost more than anyone could know.
The British never gave up their liberties because people were terrorising their nation. The Isrealis haven't give up their OWN liberties because they are being attacked by terrors.
When we took a step backward and ended our freedoms - no matter how small or in our case today - how large - we gave up everything that made us, us. We gave up everything that seperated us from the evil that we were fighting and/or protecting ourselves against.
Wehn we started torturing people we opened not only our military up to tortore and other problems. By doing something completely against all international laws we've opened ourselves up to justification of their attacks and hatred against up, and have opened everyone up to attacks internationally. International law didn't just protect our soldiers under the Geneva conventions, it protected our citizens at large against attack, being held hostage, etc. under the Warsaw Conventions - READ the back of your airline ticket booklets they slide your ticket into - its all in their - usually highlighting what happens to your luggage - protection for your luggage...

Religion
Americans:
60% think that Noah's ark was a true story.
55% think that Angels literally stepped into their lives to save them.
Two studies recently proved that people who are die hard bible bangers (the ones that belive in nothing else and cannot disconnect the real world from their poor thoughts) - no matter which faith (including Judaism and Muslim), etc - are less intelligent and make more errors in judgement. These studies were by a little hole in the wall school in England - Oxford University, and a completly anti-church organization... A school run by the orthodox christian church in the middle east.
I think that these past two elections have proven some of these issues are true!

History DOES repeat itself
The Savings and Loan crisis was started by what? Improper leanding for home loans and corruption in the upper levels both brought on by DEREGULATION of the industry. This allowed them to give loans to people who weren't qualified and sell the mortgages easier than in the past. It also allowed the companies to lie to the people and have a plan for a bailout. Who made it happen Neil Bush (supported by his brothers (G.W. and Jeb), and his father (GWH Bush (VP at the time)) AND the Keating Five.
Who were the Keating Five? They were senators who assisted and funnelled money to Charles H. Keating, Jr. chairman of one of the S&Ls. The other leaders of the largest were also supported, however, they only really investigated the one.
Senator John McCain was one of the leaders of these five senators who supported deregulation then and still supports it now... It was completely wrong then and it was done even worse now!
This is precisely what happened in this current issue. They want deregulation until their buddies can profit from a bailout. We must impeach the president, vp, and all his minions who allowed this to happen. We must hold the deregulators accountable and bring this nation back to for the people by the people from being for the rich by the rich...

Bush and Hurricanes
Well, it is great to see some things never do change. Katrina was horrible. Then Gustav started to make republicans think that they can brag that they fixed the issues. Now Houston has sat vacant since Ike hit. The Army Reserve had to rescue - THE NATIONAL GUARD of Texas! The weren't prepared! The FEMA office in Houston had to ask local residents for assistance during the storm.
There are several dozen trucks outside the area which have been sitting since before the storm hit waiting to be allowed into the area. They are just sitting there.
This is NO better than what they did in New Orleans. Maybe now I'll stop hearing republicans b!tch!ng that they should have never built in the area.
Yes, they should not have - the French actually used SCIENCE and ENGINEERING to figure out where to put the French quarter - on islands in the mud of the delta... But in Galveston - there is no redeemable properties from an engineering standpoint on which to really build. Half the structures were built on stilts because they flood on a regular - almost yearly - basis!!! Difference is, no-one will complain about them - because they're wealthier.
It was never a RACE thing (although I do think it has something to do with the decisions of this administration - if you can call it that), it IS about wealth - who has it = good, who does not = evil... Very simple philosophy!

Where's Bushie????
Bushie flew to Texas to run the disaster status for Gustav from his ranch. Nice to see somethings don't change - I'm afraid of change... Ever since he took office he's run to that stinking ranch for everything... Maybe he'll give a press conference and then let us watch as hits a drive again!
