Americans support impeaching Bush

Tue, 24 Oct 2006 18:25:51 GMT

clipper's remarks: Could be very interesting if the Dems take the House and Senate.

Clip Source: www.wonkette.com

Buried in this Newsweek story is the news that 51% of American voters want Bush impeached — 28% say High Priority, 23% say Low Priority, 44% against, 6% undecided or don’t know what a president is. And only 78% of Republicans oppose impeachment, proving something or other.

Didn’t Bush come back in ‘04 claiming 51% was a “mandate” for all kinds of new fun?

Genuine Jesus or Counterfeit Christ?

Thu, 05 Jul 2007 02:28:38 GMT

clipped by: thisnamecantbetaken
clipper's remarks: Simple...

Clip Source: watkins.gospelcom.net

If you're turned off by Jesus, you're probably confusing him with some ultra-conservative characterization of a TV evangelist.

First, Jesus was Jewish--not white Anglo-Saxon.

The counterfeit Christ emphasizes law; the genuine Jesus, love.

The counterfeit Christ and his followers have long lists of "do's and don't's" that are preached as "Gospel."

But the genuine Jesus has just two laws: love God and love people.

2. The counterfeit Christ emphasizes jealousy; the genuine Jesus, joy.

Jesus also had withering words for the wealthy who oppressed--or simply ignored --the poor.

3. The counterfeit Christ emphasizes politics; the genuine Jesus, peace.

if the TV preacher spends more time attacking those who don't follow his particular brand of theology, then he's probably not preaching the genuine Jesus, either.

He also spoke of unity--not pew politics or doctrinal debates.

The genuine Jesus requires us to follow him.

Perhaps the world is yet to know the genuine Jesus

How Modern Liberals Think

Mon, 26 Mar 2007 18:12:13 GMT

clipped by: n2sooners
clipper's remarks: This really changed the way I view a lot of the liberal posts here at Clipmarks and elsewhere.

Being a former liberal Democrat, I can vouch for much of this. The general ethos of the leftist mind necessitates that you must resist restraining (conservative) impulses. Logic and reason are restraining impulses. Since modern liberalism is primarily a state of unrestrained emotional turbulence, the liberal must find reasons for excusing his most base emotional instincts and instead embrace the "liberation" that comes from not being able to summon reason to control your impulses. Many consequently fall prey to the tempting natural impulse of letting emotion override logic and reason. The liberal creed dictates that feelings are more important than anything, and that they shall hold court over reason.
