I change my mind about MSNBC
Dylan Ratigan is quiiiickly becoming my favorite MSNBC personality to pick on. Missing no opportunity to rail against the Tea Party, Ratigan, in this clip, lauds members of the GOP for denouncing Liz Cheney’s controversial remarks concerning lawyers of the Justice Department who represented Al Qaeda terrorists. Ratigan adds that he wishes the Tea Party would follow suit by condemning the Nazi and racists members of their organization.
Well Ratigan, I think it’s obvious that society at large holds those who take on Nazi and racists philosophies, as those who are among fringe in our populace. In fact, they are rather unsavory in nature. Now, why would the Tea Party not jump at the opportunity to condemn these groups? Simple, to those of us who understand the concept of what the Tea Party is all about. It is a single issue organization; Taxed Enough Already. If the Tea Party were to organize as a political party with their own candidates, I am sure they would develop a fiscal platform as well as a social platform that would clearly define their disdain for Nazi and racist agenda’s. Instead, they are a single issue group formed on the terms of saying “enough taxes.” This issue is held dearly by most conservatives as well as many liberals and it shouldn’t be to anyone’s surprise that Nazi’s and racist’s don’t like being taxed either.
One would think that with Ratigan’s anal retentive attention to all things conservative that he would have figured all of this out on his own. Truly, I think he has figured it out, but he’d rather not be honest with himself or us. Such is the life of a bed wetting liberal.
Hopefully Dylan, MSNBC will be around for a long time and keep you in their employ so that we can be friends.
Watch Eric Massa tonight on Glenn Beck
Eric Mass will be appearing on today’s Glenn Beck show to talk about his departure from office. While watching, keep in mind a few things here:
- Charlie Rangel, Congressman for New York’s 15th district, was found to have violated House ethics rules with corruption implications
- Charlie Rangel is a “Yes” vote for ObamaCare
- Charlie Rangel is still in office
- Eric Massa , Congressman for New York’s 29th district, was at the beginning stages of a House ethics investigation for having a potty mouth and hurting a staffers feelings
- Eric Massa in a “No” vote on ObamaCare
- Eric Massa is no longer in office
Hey, if you’re still not convinced at least it will be a great show especially if they both start blubbering.
Eric Massa rips Democrats for forcing him out of office.
House Representative Eric Massa of New York’s 29th district (that’s your congressman for those of you who live in the Elmira/Corning area) has come under fire with the House ethics committee for, as he put it, using salty language at a New Years Eve party. Some poor staffer got his feelings hurt and and lodged a complaint. Now Massa is now claiming that his party has it out for him for being a No vote on ObamaCare. Assuming that all he says is true, I wish more politicians would shoot from the hip like Massa does here. An interesting note is that the former House ethics committee chairman Charlie Rangel, who is a yes vote, is still in office without pressure to resign from party leadership.
It doesn’t happen in this audio clip, but I just love it when he calls Rahm Emanual “the son of the devils spawn.”
Should Christians Use Saul Alinsky’s Tactics in Exposing Corruption?
Should Christians Use Saul Alinsky’s Tactics in Exposing Corruption?.
Doug Giles, father of Hannah Giles, has an awesome article over at biggovernment.com and I am just going to let you read it as he wrote it because he does a great job shooting straight from the hip. Original link above. Enjoy.
by Doug Giles
A Christian pundit, Dawn Eden, thinks my daughter Hannah Giles and her partner James O’Keefe should not have used Saul Alinsky’s deceptive tactics against ACORN because Saul was “evil,” his methods sneaky, and he dedicated his book, Rules for Radicals, to Lucifer.
In addition, Eden took a swipe at Lila Rose, Planned Parenthood’s main pain in the butt, for being deceptive in her undercover vids which exposed Planned Parenthood’s illegal activity. Oh, and I almost forgot: Dawn also busted on Hannah for being un-Christlike for wearing a miniskirt and dressing like a hooker. Sounds a little catty to me—and a wee bit like Dana Carvey’s Church Lady—but I digress.
Now Pelosi Cares About Ethics, Cuts Loose Healthcare No Vote Eric Massa
Now Pelosi Cares About Ethics, Cuts Loose Healthcare No Vote Eric Massa.
SusanAnne Hiller has an interesting article over at biggovernment.com concerning some ethics violations from certain house members.
Eric Massa, who is our representative here in New York’s 29th district, just last week announced that he would not seek a second term in office amid a sexual harassment claim from a staffer. At the press conference Massa indicated a recurrence of a bout with cancer was his reason for not seeking another term and that his timely announcement should give another potential candidate enough time to mount a successful bid for the 29th seat. Now we have a report that Massa is resigning effective March 9th. Some say that Massa is being forced out by Nancy Pelosi and crew because of his indiscretions.
Keep in mind that we still have Charlie Rangel poking around DC after the ethics committee found that he violated house rules months ago, with implications of serious corruption charges.
What did Massa do to deserve being thrown out of the house, other than having a potty mouth? Committing to vote No on ObamaCare.
Dr. David Berlinski: What Does It Take for Change? (Clip 5)
Everybody has a favorite David Berlinski story. Right? Sure you do, you just don’t know it yet. Anyway, this one is my favorite. In this clip Berlinski explores the evolution of the cow to whale concept. In evolutionary circles it is a popular belief that the whale was once a land animal. Berlinski uses the cow as a crude example of an ancestor to the whale to examine the possible changes that the cow would have to undergo to make the transition from land to sea.
I have had many creation vs. evolution discussions and often the whale will emerge as a topic of interest to the evolutionary model. So, this video has become a phildowd.com favorite, and since it is so near and dear to me, I can’t resist sharing it. Enjoy!
Day Four
On the fourth day of creation, God created the sun, moon and stars to give light to the earth. If God created them on the fourth day, is this proof that the first three days were longer than 24 hour days?
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day
Day-age creationists have the theory that this is an indicator of an old earth age. The presumption is that the absences of these celestial bodies imply the impossibility of a 24 hour day. So, day one through three was probably much longer than a 24 hour celestial cycle, which could be the answer to the evolutionist assertion that the earth is old. This theory leads us down a path that causes us to contradict scripture and undermines a vital principle of God’s word.
Let’s put MSNBC to rest.
On MSNBC’s Dylan Ratigan show Mark Williams of the Tea Party movement was apparently invited to the show just to blasted by a lot of hate and intolerance. The show’s host, Dylan Ratigan pounds out question after question and doesn’t let the guest get a word in edgewise. I suppose Ratigan feared that Williams would have made too much sense. Hey Ratigan, Why so serious?
For this they are willingly ignorant.
When one spends anytime reading the bible, eventually one will begin reading certain portions of it over again. Being the living word that it is, often something new will hit you like a ton of bricks. This portion in 2Peter is one of those passages.
2Pe 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
Peter starts off by telling us that there will be scoffers that will question the existence of God, or at least question His imminent return. I think it is fair to say that they question His existence altogether. “All things continue as it has since the beginning of [time].” Remember, they say this because they walk after “their own lust,” in other words, they wish to live their lives as if they aren’t really accountable to a higher authority.
“For this they are willingly ignorant.” Because the scoffers want to live their lives without God, they make themselves ignorant about a worldwide flood. If there is then evidence of the Great Flood, then that is ultimate proof of God. If there is a God then there is one to which we are accountable.
There is evidence of a worldwide flood, so much evidence that evolutionist will try to place that flood about 4 billion years ago, when really it was about 4500 years ago. If there was water 4 billion years ago the evolution must be true and God a lie. For this they are willingly ignorant.
Bill Schulz of FNC’s RedEye buys opportunity to take a swipe at Inhofe and Creation Scientist
On a recent edition of RedEye on the Fox News Channel, Greg Gutfeld and panel explore the whereabouts of Al Gore in light of all the snowfall occurring nationwide. The insinuations of “junk science” are dropped a few times topping off with a clip of Neil Cavuto interviewing Senator Inhofe with Inhofe inviting Al Gore to address the greatest scientific scandal in history.
Co-host Bill Schulz apparently never made it too the pre-show dress rehearsal to get a heads up on what the topics of the day would be. Either that or the overwhelming desire to knee-jerk a response over took his ability to rationally add to the conversation. I’m betting the latter was the case. Schulz instead took that opportunity to blast Inhofe for not believing evolution and belittling Creation Scientists saying, “those two words [creation and scientist] should never ever meet in the same sentence.”
Bill, I know you must have bruised your knee terribly on the bottom of that table while responding to the story, but I must point out one thing that you missed while on your anti-Inhofe tirade. Inhofe and the Creation Scientist were right on global warming. (emphasis added to further annoy Bill Schultz).
