Christian Identity Movement's Trifecta Attack?
Is it fate or calculated? Have the far right has finally been given permission to launch their assault on religious tolerance and diversity.

1. the 10 commandments monument - this one is to establish the primacy of "god's law" over the constitution and bill of rights

2. next Paul Hill, to establish Saint Rambo as a precedent of killing for jesus. he said something like "I know i'll get the ultimate reward for my obedience

and

3. the sweet capper, to spell it out for you:

SPEARS: Honestly, I think we should just trust our Lord in every decision that he makes and we should just support that, you know, and be faithful in what happens.

(ok, she really said 'president' instead of 'Lord', but what's the diffence anyway?)

Madonna, Britney MTV kiss turns viewers off

http://home.hamptonroads.com/stories/story.cfm?story=59207&ran=119187

Bleeeech. Yuck. Unclean.

Pass the Listerine. Please.

Call me old-fashioned. A middle-aged prude. But if there's one thing I don't want to see -- on MTV, in the newspaper or anywhere else -- it's Madonna and Britney Spears.

Kissing.

And I definitely don't want my teenagers to see it. Unfortunately, they did. My son declared it was disgusting.

You know what I'm talking about, right? At MTV's annual music video awards ceremony last week, two of the least talented female singers in the world treated the viewing audience to a passionate, open-mouthed kiss.

That's right, a 45-year-old woman -- married with two kids, no less -- kissed a 21-year-old young woman on the mouth. Lovely.

EDITED BY ADMIN: COPYRIGHT

<sniff> <sniff> AHH, the smell of burnt irony in the morning! HAHAHAHA! I hope the democrats send Bush a thank you card for the Britney Spears gift.

But stay tuned, I have a feeling there is a truckload of other BS coming at us.

4. Some cabal boxes
have a switch on the back that will allow you to block a channel. I had my son convinced that we didn't get Cartoon Network for a couple of years because I had it blocked.

10. "Cabal Boxes"
Intentional or not, that's not a bad description.

12. Cartoon Network is the only safe thing for him to watch on TV
If you're going to block something, block Faux News; one of these days, Junior is going to be up first on Saturday morning, be searching for something to watch while eating his Cocoa Puffs, accidentally tune into Faux News...the tentacles will shoot into his brain, the little man behind the curtain will push the button to make the machine slurp out his brains, and next thing you know you're raising a freeper.

If he watches Cartoon Network, that won't happen.

6. Actually
I thought it was kind of cute. Brittany at least kissed back. Aguilera was like a fembot (see Austin Powers for more info).

14. Gotta love those values...
Frankly, I'd rather look at the postmortem pix of Udai and Qusai. Any day.

Two women kissing? Disgusting! Two men shot to death and paraded for all the world to see? Now there is wholesome family entertainment!

And I definitely don't want my teenagers to see it. Unfortunately, they did. My son declared it was disgusting.

Yeah, just like he said he doesn't drink, doesn't smoke dope, and won't have sex until he's married!

Bullshit! I bet the little angle is jerking off to the image right now!

2. A little humor in that I guess
The Christian Identity/Neo-Nazis, are disturbing, but a conspiracy with the GOPer's I cannot fathom. What I fear is the repubs setting us up for an aparthied regime, look at the demographic projections anyou will know that their main power base is dwindling. Soon enough the whites will be just another minority, and I'm sure the GOP is scared shitless of that. I have no doubt that they will concoct some plan to ensure that whites will retain power in the new United States.

3. They Have Been Testing That in Florida
Excising black voters from the voting rolls is Choicepoint's job.

8. Christian Identity is apolitical.
Dictatorial would be closer to the mark.
Think "Jesu, Jesu, Uber Alles" and "Love Jesus or DIE!"

I worked with one of these nightmare clowns. He owned LOTS of guns and ammo, gold, MRE's, etc. I imagine his house made Ruby Ridge look like a youth camp.
He's the guy who told me that all the non-white people of the world were descended from Cain's acts of bestiality after he killed his brother and was driven into the wilderness...

9. Christian Identity = al Qaida for white folks.
Pure and simple, they are wierd, often violent, paranoid fanatics and for all intents and purposes neophyte terrorists.

11. Christian Identity is not what you think it is
It is not as far reaching as you are making it out to be. CI is a group that believes that the Aryans are the one true tribe of Israel and that all the Jews are fraudulent mud people who became tainted by interbreeding with the blacks (who they consider to be animals or worse). They are closely associated with the NeoNazi movement and the Klan but are by no means wide spread.

From the Souther Poverty Law Center here is a description:
CHRISTIAN IDENTITY

The Christian Identity religion asserts that whites, not Jews, are the true Israelites favored by God in the Bible. In most of its forms, Identity theology depicts Jews as biologically descended from Satan, while non-whites are seen as soulless "mud people" created with the other Biblical "beasts of the field." Christian Identity has its roots in a 19th-century English fad called British Israelism, which asserted that European whites were descended from the ten "lost tribes" of Israel and were thus related to Jews, who were descended from the other two Hebrew tribes mentioned in the Bible. But British Israelism, which was initially friendly to Jews, was adopted and transformed in the 20th century into a rabidly anti-Semitic creed by a number of racist preachers in the United States.

For decades, identity has been one of the most important ideologies for the white supremacist movement. In its hardest line form, it asserts that Christ will not return to earth until the globe is swept clean of Jews and other "Satanic" fluences. In recent years, deep doctrinal disputes, the lack of a central church structure, and a shift among white supremacists towards agnosticism and racist variations of neo-Paganism have weakened the Identity movement and reduced the number of its adherents. The total number of groups counted in 2002 was 27.
