Falwell weighs in, begs for money
I subscribe to this newsletter. It is a barrel of fun, and keeps me informed of important wack job fundy shit. All the parts in bold or italic are my emphasis.

A SPECIAL ALERT TO FALWELL CONFIDENTIAL READERS


From: Jerry Falwell

Date: May 3, 2005

Through the outrageous use of a U.S Senate filibuster, a hostile Democratic minority is actively blocking any type of up or down vote on President Bush’s federal judge nominees.

President Bush has fulfilled his Constitutional obligation by nominating experienced jurists to empty federal judgeships — but the U.S. Senate has failed to do its duty to “advise and consent” with the president on his nominees.

Through Liberty Alliance and The Moral Majority Coalition, I am asking hundreds of thousands of Americans to add their name immediately to a CITIZEN WORK ORDER which demands that the Senate carry out its sacred duty and proceed with a full floor vote on the president’s judicial nominees.

I urge you to add your name to this CITIZEN WORK ORDER http://www.moralmajority.us/cwo/ right now and then forward this e-mail directly to other friends and associates on your e-mail address list. We must create a nationwide groundswell of outrage immediately that will shake the stodgy U.S. Senate into action now.

Until this stalemate is resolved, much of the important business of the Senate – homeland security, economic and tax reform, saving traditional marriage and religious freedom – will languish.

The recent “death order” imposed on Terri Schiavo by an unaccountable judge has brought public attention to the incredible power of judges.

--of course this judge was a repuke righty appointed by the fuckhead man-child himself, if I recall---

No longer are the three branches of government equal. The balance of power has swung heavily toward runaway federal courts.

---and over 200 judges have already been approved by dems, remember? so maybe these are particularly heinous wretches--

That is why liberal senators like Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, and Hillary Rodham Clinton are holding the president’s nominees hostage –- refusing to even allow an up or down floor vote.


What can be done to end this JUDICIAL TRYANNY? I have two answers.

In the long run, we need to educate and train an army of future lawyers and judges with a Christian world view. This is exactly what we are doing with the new Liberty University School of Law. ( http://www.nljonline.com/staver.htm )


But right now, we must demand that the U.S. Senate carry out the work assigned by the U.S. Constitution and allow an up-or-down vote on every one of President Bush’s stalled judicial nominees.


That is why I urge you to immediately add your name to our CITIZEN WORK ORDER http://www.moralmajority.us/cwo/ which will be sent to YOUR two U.S. senators. It lets your senators know that you, as one of their own voting constituents are watching their every move.

Your CITIZEN WORK ORDER demands that YOUR senators DO THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY to “advise and consent” with the president on his judicial nominees.

Let’s tell every U.S. Senator to “Vote them up or down — but vote!”

In addition, I am hoping you can place a gift of $100 (that’s only $1 per U.S. Senator) or even $50, $25 or even $15 to Liberty Alliance on your credit or debit card today. https://falwellsecure.com/libertyalliance/

Your gift will help us monitor and EXPOSE the actions of activist judges...alert thousands of citizens through national television, the monthly National Liberty Journal Newspaper and my weekly Falwell Confidential e-mail newsletter ... challenge 200,000 pastors to get involved in this battle.

It’s high time the U.S. Senate fulfilled its constitutional responsibility and voted up-or-down on President Bush’s judicial nominees.

If you can help us with a gift of at least $15 or more, https://falwellsecure.com/libertyalliance/ I will send our new edition of the handy Pocket U.S. Constitution. This pocket Constitution will be indispensable for anyone who is tired of hearing about the liberal’s “interpretation” of the Constitution.

With your own pocket Constitution you can easily reference for yourself the simplicity of this amazing document that has guided our nation so well for more than two centuries.


Help me put pressure on the Senate by adding your name to our CITIZEN WORK ORDER http://www.moralmajority.us/cwo/ along with your gift of $100 — that’s only $1 per senator. If you cannot send this much, please send at least $50, $25 or even $15 to help in this battle.

"In the long run, we need to educate and train an army of future lawyers and judges with a Christian world view"

If does not scare the hell out of you, you're not paying attention.

The Shock Troops of the Religious Reich are developing Special Forces Commandos to infiltrate and destroy our Judicial System. They will not stop until they have destroyed our Democracy and installed a Theocracy.

3. we should get a copy of his handy pocket Constitution and see if he's
diddled with it. You know, changed the words, added and deleted a few things, so it's more biblical and Falwell-esque.

When you said he was weighing in, I thought you'd expand on that and say he came in at an even 375 pounds.

5. I've seen him on tv recently - he's got to be 300+ pounds at least
No surprise he's having severe health problems (hospitalizations).

I don't wish obesity on anyone and do not mock him for his condition - but the man is morbidly obese. Not a shining example of moderation for his flock of sheeple.
