Bob Boudelang Meets Pope Ratz!
Shameless vanity post....

"Speaking of brothers, it is exciting to know that Pope Ratz and Our Great Brother of the President Neil Bush (who did not have the clap, only herpes) were partners in business not so long ago. Which has nothing to do with the letter Pope Ratz sent out during the election (when he was still only Cardinal Ratz) telling Catholics if they voted for Kerry, they would go to hell, which nobody can prove anything different yet, and they should stop looking for obvious reasons.

And yes, the business is on the books as a trust and not the religious foundation it was spoze to be, but that is just sloppy paperwork. Or something.

After all do you think Pope Ratz and Our Great Brother of the President Neil Bush would be involved with anything like "trust"? It bobbles the mind.

And yes, Neil Bush did bang teen Asian prostitutes which is how he got his disease (which is not the clap so stop saying that!). But I am sure Pope Ratz forgave Our Great Brother of the President and probly told him just to say five Heil! Marys or the like.

After all, Pope Ratz is not worried about little piccarilloes like banging teen Asian prostitutes, or stealing a billion dollars from a Savings & Loan (and you cannot prove that Neil did any thing wrong when he stole that money!). Pope Ratz is busy focusing on the real evils of the world, like equal rights toward gay people. There is none of that in the Vatican, and Pope Ratz is making sure the threat of tolerance is stamped out. Today the Vatican, and tomorrow, the world! "

2. Thanks! Some weeks it just writes itself!
Who would have guessed right wing loonies would actually write a column claiming Osama got away because Chimpy didn't have ENOUGH BALLS (i.E., there are women in the military)!

10. interesting...
this bit from the article about the foundation:

its mission to publish the original text of the Bible's Old Testament in Hebrew, its New Testament in Greek and the Quran in Arabic.

Interesting because Jesus didn't speak Greek and Greek is far different from Aramaic and Hebrew (see Neil Douglas-Klotz "Desert Wisdom") that Jesus probably spoke.

19. Neil Douglas-Klotz
has a series of books that directly translate from the original Hebrew, Aramaic, Arabic, and other arcaic languages into English. Among his books are "Prayers of the Cosmos" (mainly about the Lord's Prayer), "Desert Wisdom" (excerpts from the Old and New Testaments and Qur'an as well as ancient texts and Sufi poetry), and "Genesis Meditations".

As far as I know, the OT at least has been available in Hebrew for a looooonnnngg time, and the Qur'an has traditionally only been written in Arabic-translations being of modern origins. :)

21. So in other words, this was a make-work project
that was already more than covered...just as I suspected.

Well, now i'm completely fooled about the venture...no sir, it sure wasn't a way for the Bush crime family to funnel money under the table to Pope Ratz.

6. And Bob already has hate mail...
From a weenie calling himself Freddiefit:

"Bob...
I think you are suffering from terminal, all-emcompassing, left-wing, stupidity....."

And yet even Bob isn't so dumb that he writes hate mail to fictional characters...

35. It boggles my mind that Bob gets hate mail
Who would be dumb enough to write hate mail to someone who, um, doesn't exist?

Last winter we had a loony who sent Bob hate mail and threats....and then erupted in rage and threatened to sue (for what?) whjen his threats were posted here.

9. I want to thank Bob
for directing me to the link between Neil Bush and the newly elected Pope....and for voicing what I believe is all too common among Christian fundamentalists-they will tolerate Catholics because they add numbers and money to certain agendas (anti-choice, for example), but they know that Catholics aren't "true believers" and will "burn in hell".

13. That is exactly the mindest of fundamentalists...
and for his part, Pope Ratz has made a career out of publicly sneering at other people's religions too....he and the dimwits at Bob Jones University ought to get along just ducky.

And by the way, it's woth noting that the Republicans seem to have gone from gibbering in fear that the Pope would meddle in American politics when John Kennedy was running for president, to actually paying him under the table to meddle in American politics when John Kerry was running for president.

16. More hate mail for Bob!
"From some skank named Pamela Schwartz--
Personal message:
To all the gay whiners at DU...the Pope and the catholic church do not need lessons in morality from the same people who invented fisting, glory holes, and the dirty sanchez. "

Funny, I thought Jeff Gannon and Mary Cheney invented those things...

20. Demonstrating the courage one so often associates with Republicans
She set her e-mail account so that Bob couldn't reply.

Yeah, for people who don't care to asssociate with gay people, closet cases like her sure seem to spend a lot of time studying and obsessing over gay sex.

"From hijerk@aohell.com

22. Another mindless fuckwit heard from...
Yes, it's freeper@freep.com, posting with the incoherence and stupidity that so marks the breed.

"Your a hugh looser
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...I'd like to see y'all try. That would be
hilarious. "The Pieta is MINE!" "I'm gay and all artwork by gays
belongs to ME!" Hahahahahaha. How can anyone take y'all seriously."

The wonder is, no matter how incoherent and idiotic I try to make Bob, there's always a right wing asshat who's even stupider and less coherent.

26. Roger Ailes, Bob Boudelang, and The Illustrated Man!
The good Roger Ailes, whom everyone at DU should read every damn day, links to Bob Boudelang in his blog because there is a link to Roger's blog in Bob's column...and here is a link to that...

http://rogerailes.blogspot.com/2005_04_17_rogerailes_archive.html#111427706314640512

And so on and so on into infinity like the crowd of freaks on the dusty road peering at the Illustrated Man's tattoo of the crowd of freaks on the dusty road peering at the Illustrated Man's tattoo of the crowd of freaks on the dusty road peering at the Illustrated Man's tattoo of the crowd of freaks on the dusty road peering at the Illustrated Man's tattoo....

28. Whoa!
You write Bob's columns?? I've read them every week since I first found DU almost three years ago, and I always wondered who wrote them. I feel like I've found the Holy Grail.

Thanks - Bob's wonderful! :toast:
