Identity Theft Rampant Among Dems in Current Events JoeUser Forums

I had heard about this disturbing fact from my Democratic neighbors, the Waltons (or so they say?), at last month's town hall meeting. I live in a little town called Normal, Illinois. We had called a special meeting to discuss the new name for our town that had been decided upon in last November's elections. The tension created by the new Normal naming was far greater than that created by the presidential contest, don't you know. They, my democratic neighbors, w

Keep that thought, and realize the value of your input and action in getting the country on track. We, the millions who voted against this divisive and misled smooth talker, need to work hard at getting one or two people from the other side to wake up in the next couple of years. We need to tie Obama and Company's hands up real good in the upcoming senate and house midterms elections. We nearly did it last November. Let's get focused on who we can win over to our cause now,

Washington State Nosebleed in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Well, Washington, what's it gonna be? I'll bet most of you up there in that NW corner of our land have no idea of what your so naive liberal congress folk are up to these days. Putting aside all the obvious perversity of having same sex marriage made legal in their state, (how do they do that?) they will no doubt call all who oppose their linking up with the gay pride group a bunch of bigots. So be it. <span style

Well, this is forefather here, wanting to applaud you all on an amazing, spiritual experience you have provided here. I am a very busy man, and don't get to spend much time here at JU. I checked in last week and found the loudsilence post. I read quite a bit, and coming to the comments end, (May '09) I noticed the non-believers were the closers.( I thought it was May '11,) and more just between God and me...thought I would acknowledge His word and move on. What a surprise today finding

OCCUPIED in Current Events JoeUser Forums

The pay toilets were being over used because of the protesters's (the Protestants) constant flushing when only one had urinated into the bowl. It had been decided by my ex that at least 3 or 4 could pee before the need to 'pull the chain'. This protest was way before the green movement had become so ...so green, but my wifey was so forward thinking. We were there (Wall Street if you can believe that) to protest the cost of the p

'Squeeze Play' Opens on Broadway in Fiction Writing JoeUser Forums

How sweet it is. Just yesterday I called my mother to inform her I would be coming home to work in the family ice cream business, and quit trying to be the next big thing on Broadway. I have been here for three weeks, and it shows. 'Squeeze Play' was to be the one that did it for me, and when it got shot down at the last minute I felt it was time to wake-up and face the obvious...Writing plays, no. Selling ice cream, yes. However, when Sid called and tol

Testing..123 in US Domestic JoeUser Forums

How are you tonight? Happy New Year. Remember last year, when the screwball senate voted to reform health care? Remember how they ignored the will of the people because as they know, they know better than the people. They passed that stinking, filthy piece of crap that no one thinks will work or benefit anyone other than the power boys over at the DNC. You forgot already? They were hoping you would. While I'm thinking of it, vote Republican this November . Anywa

Livin' Large On Social Security Largesse in Humor JoeUser Forums

Well, here we go again. Just when you think you might see the light at the end of the tunnell, in walks Nancy Pelosi and kisses you with her chocalaty breath, and tells you dreams really can come true. I want to sexually dominate every democratic female in the house and senate. It is my dream. I have a dream. Martin Luther King would have to watch his mouth if he were alive today. Hate crimes, y'know? He

Reply to You Can "Know" in Religion JoeUser Forums

This is great. With all the work to be done you folks sit around and argue about salvation, about who got it and who don't. And where do you go for your references? The bible! It's quaint how so many people are still stuck in the 'old' ways of seeing things. In the book of Obama, chat chap no.7 line 9, it clearly states, "we are not a nation of Christians, or Jews, or Muslims. We are a nation of citizens...and we think Homosexuality is cool. We are not backwards as are the people in West Virg

Reply to Science and God (One and the same?) in Everything Else Stardock Forums

Well, I have read quite a few of these comments, and being a believer in an almighty, perfect Creator, it hasn't been easy to read through some of them. I'm glad I skipped ahead, was 'moved' to jump to the last post, where I found the very thoughtful and God honoring comment by brother lulapilgrim. I thank you. Faith is precious to those who have it. It becomes more precious each time we act on the opportunity to exercise it, as presented here in this very thought provokin

Reply to Science and God (One and the same?) in Everything Else Stardock Forums

Well, well, well. (why is it 3 'wells' satisfies that configuration?) I see that I am here with a bunch of fallen men with questions about where, when and who they might be. Why hasn't God given us these answers so that we might know what to do with ourselves? The Christian religion says that He has done that in the Spirit-breathed book they call the Bible. One of the certain aspects of the Bible is the disclosure of hell, and that many are on the broad road to that place because of their rej

Major Identity Theft Discovered in US Domestic JoeUser Forums

With all the kissy kissy going on with the 'major' media and the progessive Dems these days, I thought I would have to put in an emergency call to fearless leader Limbaugh... to inform him of the most recent example. There I was, watching my share of commercials on MSNBC. This was the one where the president of the company gives the world his social security number, (reminds me of another president I know), him being so sure that no one will be able to rip him off. You've all seen that

The Calm Before The Storm in The Political Machine JoeUser Forums

Some of you might recall that I'm a poet. I studied at Boston in the early 70's under Prof. Lloyd Schwartz, and got a couple of A's on some of my pieces. I was completely unaware of how completely out of my mind I was back then, and Prof. Schwartz,(now a nationally recognized writer, film critic, all-around good guy) was so kind in developing and converting my misguided energies. At any rate, I want you all to know that I'm not some 'crazy' howlin at the moon. &nbsp

7 Light Years Later in Writing JoeUser Forums

Well, it seems a light year turns out to be a lot longer than we thought. When we 'ALL' voted to go on this trip to the 'closest' star to earth we were aware of the relativity of time and space and that we would indeed be saying a great big 'SAYONARA' to our generations, all three of them. My good wife is twenty years my younger (there's two) and the twins are barel

Reply to Jesus - Habitual Liar? in Religion JoeUser Forums

You are either one super scholar, to have put such a battery of seemingly anti-Christ scriptures together, or a poor lost soul duped by the anti-Christ into thinking you've stumbled onto some great, hidden-to-all but you truth. It's obvious that you are not a believer in or a respecter of Jesus Christ. Why would He answer your faithless prayers or for that matter, do anything for you? Why reveal any of the divine mysteries to you? You sound like He

And thank you also for your kind and informative reply. I just got home from a busy day, and was wondering what I would find in reply to my response to your post, for as we are all well aware this is indeed a very sensitive subject matter here. I have a flood of ideas and thoughts on how we got to where we now find ourselves as a nation in regards to 'us and them'. These problems have not suddenly appeared out of thin air, and I think that the power

I don't know many homosexuals. Never have and probably never will. Do I like them? Not those who want to make an issue of their sex lives. I don't care to hear heterosexuals tell me about theirs either. I'm not a therapist, and what they do with other people is there business. For one thing, if the other person in their exploits is not present, then how do I know they want me to hear anything said about them that may or may not be true. Shut up!

SHE, it's like this. I was riding home with my twelve yr old, Bobby, who was thoroughly enjoying his Italian ice, (nothing personal, all you hot headed Italians...wait ..it's hot blooded..never mind) and he bets me he can arrive at our house, some 15 miles down the road, with ice still ice.

The Power of Faces in Current Events JoeUser Forums

I guess it's been a couple of weeks now, so I hope this comparison doesn't seem insensitive. It's a little scene out of my life that maybe has some meaning in this chaotic time that we find ourselves in. It did to me, so here goes. When the Virginia Tech massacre story broke in all its stunning horror, I was struck by my own insensitivity of it all. As it was

I don't like to upset Democrats, especially on such a 'heated' day as today was with the President telling them they were full of themselves(shit) by scenting him there 'get out now' bill and him then vetoing the piece of crap, but... they are right on about the globular war thing.

Right on, brother Dan. It is our reality that all that we have, all those good things such as eternal life, redemption, forgiveness of sins, and fellowship with Almighty God..., are not things we can boast about obtaining from some personal talent or prowess or whatever. Having these things, in faith in Jesus, are things we could not hold on to if not for the fact that this faith is indeed a gift in itself from God. Thank you for stirring up thes

I recently was an audience guest on the VIEW, and caught the mysterious Ivana Trump on the set.

Hey, that rhymes...! School...cool.
