"The 2 Ps"
"Pray and Phone"

A preacher is on CSpan now telling folks to help get Bush's judges approved.

Anyone else watching this? Several ministers have spoken. They have all mentioned or quoted Dobson and most have also brought up Schiavo.

OMG now they are KNEELING at a press conference asking God to help get these judges approved.

Now they are taking questions from reporters.

These men are sick and twisted. This is what has happened to our country.

I feel like puking. Really.

3. Just call in, act like a Christian, and say you are only doing HALF
of that. Tell them you encourage all conservatives everywhere to pray, but not to phone, because prayer would be much more effective, and phoning would show that you did not have faith in the power of prayer.

I'd love to see a pack of preachers try to argue against prayer<G>.

9. I just can't get over
how arrogant they all were. Like they have some lock on the conscience of America.

12. Hey, those guys made me miss Jeff Gannon. At least, he
took risks.

It's the American Taliban. And that's bad news because I don't like wearing shrouds. :(

11. Yes we must
and I like that description - because I was thinking while watching these men of Gawd that they needed to be dressed like Muslim leaders - in robes. Their rhetoric certainly would fit those outfits.

13. Authorized Propaganda was calling us "dissidents" when we
Edited on Sun May-22-05 02:14 AM by sfexpat2000
were questioning the election results within two weeks. Like they had the term ready on a shelf somewhere.

(And while, mind you, their CEO was in Hollywood telling journalism student that they had to compete with the net. Shameless.)

Radical clerics need to keep their hands off our Constitution. :)
