Ethnic Studies Banned
How can this happen in America? It happens when we as citizens fail to speak out. Fail to keep track of what’s happening. We have failed to say that equality matters and that everyone has the right to learn about who they are, where they come from and how they fit into society.
Arizona’s Gov. Brewer is a prime example of the Republican Hate Party. The not so pretty face that is leading Arizona back into the dark ages. A party that reflects the goals and aspirations of the Nazi’s.
What are we going to do as citizens to stop it from spreading?
Catholic values – Include Discrimination
A Catholic school teacher lost her job because she is a lesbian. Not only lesbian, but she decided to have a baby. According to The Province she failed to respect Catholic values.
The Province asks,
“Did Lisa Reimer, think that being a lesbian with a partner having a baby was none of the school’s business?”
They conclude that it was their business. So, then what are Catholic values? To hate anyone who they deem ungodly?
I for one, think it was wrong to fire her. Yet, in this country religious institutions unlike private, have the right to discriminate based on race, religion or sexual orientation. These allowances put them in the position of being above the law.
It seems that Catholic values allow child abuse; yet maintains that homosexuals are dangerous.

Ministers plan ‘Freedom Ride’ against abortion
..
Why do they claim to march for freedom? This will be an anti-freedom march. Antiabortionist want to take away a woman’s right to choose. Period.
Let’s not confuse civil rights with loss of rights. These people are not in danger. What do they risk? They already have the right not to get an abortion. What “freedom” are they marching for?
The African American struggle for equality should not be marred by an underhanded attempt to infringe on individual freedoms.

Do I have issues with abortion? Yes. But abstinence only education has failed. Why not let schools teach real sex education, which includes pregnancy, and disease prevention. We must provide condoms for teens and teach the importance of using them. These practices will lower the abortion rate. It’s not a Christian answer, but it’s the best one.
Unfortunately anti abortion laws will not stop abortions. It will just make them illegal, expensive and dangerous.
A freedom march is for providing freedoms and equality, not to take them away.
Racial Policy Comes to Arizona
Is the current Arizona immigration law, the beginning of America’s Nuremberg Laws? Take a look at the Republican’s illegal immigrant/Mexican 15 point “crack down list”. Now, compare them to the The Nuremberg Laws. Is this where we’re headed?
What kind of person will exist in the republican utopia? Will it look like Nazi Germany? Seems to me it will.
The new Republican Party is a Christian-hate party. It will exclude and vanquish Americans who do not conform to its ideology. The goal is not unity but uniformity. Is it only me, or does everyone see how close the new Republicans resemble the Nazi Party?
The new Republican America will be free of ethnic minorities, non-Christians, gays, and all non-conformist. How many will they murder to get their twisted utopia? Will we allow the Republican Party to lead us into the next holocaust?
It takes all Americans to question the government, to ensure that our laws are humane. We don’t want laws that reflect the religious ideology of the few.
New Republican laws will have a clear message. Be like us, or be subjugated by us.
Limbaugh: Volcanic ash cloud is God’s punishment for health care
Seems not only is god a jackass but also geographically challenged. What does an Icelandic volcano eruption have to do with health care in America? One would think that if god could punish, us mere humans, it would at least be specific. After all, Obama was going that way, god could have waited a few days.
When will this awesome god stop hurting little people to make its political, social or moral republican statements? Oh, yeah I forgot there is no god, just people pretending there is one. Apparently in America that god is 100% republican, and politically aligned with the rightwing evangelicals.
Too bad god uses people like Rush to reveal his vengeance. It seems a poor choice in light of all the powers attributed to god.
Seriously though, America is filled with vulnerable people, people who cling to his words. Rush, the tea party, Fox news, and the Sarah Palin clan are hate mongers. Unfortunately people are listening.
Is it too much to ask god to target them?
Easier meth recipe creating more garbage
Many of the meth addicts are believers perhaps mostly Christian. It is terrible what is happening to these people. The drugs and the desire to get them at all cost.
Why does their god not help? These people believe in god, pray, and have families who care and pray. Yet they are still lost in the addiction cycle.
Jesus is supposed to make you happy. Right? Why does their god and religion fail?
Neither prayer, Jesus or the 12-step program work. Why do we leave this medical and biological problem to the churches and prayers?

Why is Sarah Palin Big News?
Sarah Palin, the self proclaimed Maverick is more popular than ever. So much so, that according to The Huffington Post, Palin deserves her own page. Personally I’m sick of hearing about her, even through passive means. Today NPR broadcast an excerpt of a rally speech, where she stated:
“We will stick to our constitution, our guns and our religion, he [Obama] can have the change.”
Now, I’m not going to defend the president; but how is this statement beneficial to anyone?
This woman, as best described by Bill Maher is “a category 5 moron”.
The best testimony to her ignorance is when she mocked fruit-fly research, calling it a “pet project”.
“… some of these pet projects they really don’t make a whole lot of sense and sometimes these dollars, they go to projects that have little or nothing to do with the public good. Things like fruit fly research in Paris France. I kid you not. [Insert mocking here]”
I’ve come to the conclusion that her success is due to the halo effect. She’s pretty, well dressed, christian, republican and on television – therefore she must be – smart, and knows what she is talking about. Wrong, dead wrong; just wish there was a way to break the delusion.
If left to Palin and her puppet masters, America would be full of christian, gun toting, pregnant white women, married to one and only one man, white folks who own at least one slave, god fearing hate mongers who reject science and believe that man lived with the dinosaurs.
Well what can you expect from a woman who reads “all of ‘em”, them there newspapers. Like Charles Gibson, when it comes to Palin, “I get lost in a blizzard of words”.
My recommendation to the Paliners, stop paying , stop attending the rallies/”speeches” and change the channel when her face shows up – better yet turn it off and keep it off; go read something.
