(2007-12-01) — As Venezuelans prepare to vote on a package of changes to their constitution which will help President Hugo Chávez to remain in power indefinitely, and to extend his control to all major aspects of government and business, the iconic socialist today said George Bush, CNN, the Roman Catholic Church, the CIA and the government of neighboring Columbia have engineered a secret conspiracy to make him paranoid.
“There is a sinister plot brewing,” said Mr. Chávez, “to try to make me believe that everyone is plotting against me. They’re trying to scuttle this referendum by making me look like an irrational ranting maniac.”
Mr. Chávez has recently accused CNN of fomenting an assassination plot, called Catholic Church leaders “mental retards“, labeled Colombia’s president as a “brutal” liar and Spain’s former prime minister a “fascist,” in addition to previously calling Mr. Bush “the devil” during a speech at the United Nations.
However, Mr. Chavez said he is prepared to use “the full force of the Venezuelan military” to crush any attempt to make him delusional.
“I know their secret ways,” said Mr. Chávez, “This dastardly cabal cannot succeed in making me paranoid, because I know already that they’re out there in the bushes, behind every tree. I know they’ve even infiltrated my own staff, my spies, my body guards and my top military men. I’m always one step ahead of them. I sleep with one eye open, ready in an instant to crush their assaults on my mental stability.”
Mr. Chavez concluded his seven-hour televised speech by thundering, “These people who are out to get me will never get me to believe that people are out to get me.”

Good morning, Mig -
“their assaults on my mental stability.†I’m not sure where he’s going with that one. A fundamental requirement for an assault is that there must be something there to assault. You can’t very well assault what isn’t there.
I think his “mental stability” is probably a hologram!

Secret agent and main squeeeze Cindy Sheehan must have alerted Chavez to dangers of the omnipotent BushHitlerHalliburton tri-lateral triangle of destruction. Chavez promises to send one of Cindy’s mood-ring decoders to his “bud” in Iran in order to keep the world safe from democracy’s imperialism, vowing that “the oily ‘buds’ get the vermin”.

Hugo could always check with GWB for first hand info on a vast conspiracy that’s out for blood.
The liberals are so accustomed to initiating voter fraud that it is impossible for them conceive of the possibility that someone could win an election honestly, in spite of their agenda to fraudulently rig the election.
The ‘04 election of GWB is still considered, to this very day, to be a ’stolen’ election. They’ve conned a lot of people and as they understand it, they cannot win an election without fraud then obviously nobody else can either, ergo the Republicans out shuffled the Democrats and they’re ‘ticked” at having been beaten at their own game.
Hugo Chavez could learn a lot from GWB’s experience with conspiracy. Not to worry though, he’s too stupid to figure it out.

2000 and 2004 - twice they’ve been out shuffled at elections and now they figure it’s their turn. 2008 promises to be the greatest voter fraud in history.
In their anxiety and fear of being out shuffled a third time, they’ll throw caution to the wind and pull out all the stops - illegal aliens voting - with no photo ID’s there will be multiple voting, etc. but given their ineptness they’ll foul it up and be exposed for all America to witness the ugliness of their chicanery.

$I.OO = IOOO MILLS
Interesting figures, most of which everyone already knows. A dollar = 100 cents; A cent = 10 mills; so a dollar = 1000 mills. Man’s CO2 contribution to the atmosphere - less than one tenth of one percent. And yet the “carbon footprint” if related to one dollar = less than 7/10 of one mill.
Algore is setting up his hoax around the planet that is predestined to involve Trillions of dollars in the future all the while the billions of people in China, India, Europe, Africa, etc. will “cut back” on nothing and pay nothing to try and “fix” the “less than one tenth of one percent.
To be known as “The Great Liberal Tax Increase”. Which will only be paid by the gullible Americans, Canooks, Brits, Aussies, etc. Since it’s doubtful that Mexico or any Central or South American countries will chip in a few hundred billion dollars as their share of the ante.
The New York Times 5/21/75 :”Scientist Ponder Why World’s Climate is Changing; A Major Cooling Widely Considered to Be Inevitable”
“It found that many publications now claiming the world is on the brink of a global warming disaster said the same about an impending ice age - just 30 years ago. Several major ones, including The New York Times, Time magazine and Newsweek, have reported on three or even four different climate shifts since 1895.”

Fred, in the twisted “logic” of ringleader and Mexican bandit Calvera (excellently played by Eli Wallach of “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly” fame): “If God didn’t want them sheared, he would not have made them sheep.”
Braindead liberals are more like fatted cattle than the sheep Jesus speaks of in the Gospels, but Calvera’s metaphor still loosely applies. With the ginned-up hype of so-called man-made global warming, liberal lemmings again demonstrate how they are more than willing to reach into our backpockets to pay for their political and economic insanity.

Hawkeye, the other night I saw this really weird movie from 1957 starring Andy Griffith called, “A Face In The Crowd”. Griffith played an Arkansas bum who made good as a tv/radio vitamin hawker, discovered by and groomed by Patricia Neal. At one point in the movie, Griffith, who has become a self-centered monster, makes a project of a Senator who wants to be president. The main issue that he jumps on is Social Security and he makes a speech about how people want the government to plan for them from cradle to grave, completely abdicating their responsibility for their own futures. I sat there with my mouth open. 1957. And now look at it. We haven’t learned a thing. It is no wonder the likes of Chavez get into power.

Here is the transcript:
Lonesome Rhodes is showing the senator how he can connect with people -
Lonesome (Griffith): We didn’t know that swallowing too much raw politics can put a crease in your head a whole lot deeper than that home-made joy juice we used to concoct back in Arkansas. I wish you’d give me the real cotton-picking truth about how you feel on the subject
of more and more and more social security.
Senator: I’m glad you asked me that,
Lonesome. I’d say that people today are obsessed, I mean, real drawn for security. They want protection, coddling from the cradle to the grave. I say that weakens the moral fibre. Boone wasn’t looking for unemployment insurance and old age pension. All he needed was his axe and his gun and a chance to hue a living out of the forest, with his own hands.
Lonesome: Real wizzy, ain’t it? That’s the spirit that built this country!
62 Darthmeister // Dec 4, 2007 at 11:47 am
Mine too, JL3rd. “Land for peace” is this biggest lie since, “You’ll become as gods, too.”
There is no placating Arab Jew-haters, particularly of the Palestinian variety. If every Jew in Israel would walk into the Mediterranian Sea and drown themselves, Arab Islamists would still whine about how the Joooooooish “swine” have polluted the sea!
The Koran expressly calls Jews “apes and pigs” and and the vast circle devout believers in the Islamic world understand that to be the case! It’s far more than metaphor, the Muslim really does view Jews (and to one degree or another, the garden variety infidel) as sub-human. That’s why they have no conscience in slaughtering innocent Jews and then whine when Jews dare fight back or at least defend themselves against Muslim depradations.
As to the question of Mormonism. It’s my understanding Joseph Smith, and subsequently Brigham Young, cultivated some pretty heavy duty heresy, so much so they invented their own “inspired” text and broadsides to justify their religious views. Joseph Smith virulently condemned and hated the mainstream Christendom - its teachings and faithful followers. Early Mormon leadership railed against orthodox Christianity, engaging in venomous diatribes against more traditional Christians and painting them all as hypocrites.
Having said that, I think in more modern times The Church of Latter Day Saints (forget all the polygamous issues) has moderated its exclusivity stance even though clever heresies about the true nature of Jesus Christ, His unique position as Savior of the World, Adam being the god-man of this planet, salvation by good works, and the various celestial deities true believers will become in the afterlife are still the backdrop of Mormonism. In fact, when I’ve pointed this out to some Mormons they expressed surprise that such things were fundamental teachings to early Mormons. Maybe the more controversial teachings aren’t being taught any more though they haven’t been disavowed by the Morman leadership in Salt Lake City.
However, God’s Word never returns empty, even if it is poorly understood or corrupted and I believe there are any number of well-meaning, sincere, devout Christians who fellowship within the Mormon Church. This speaks of the power of God over the corruption of man.
Admittedly some biblical teachings are controversial or at least difficult to understand, but that doesn’t negate the fact there are pretty plain and accepted teachings among well-informed, sincere Christians that define the very essence of God’s message to the world. Unfortunately there always arises false “teachers” and “prophets” who twist and warp these fundamental teaching to their own destruction and that of their listeners. Like the Bible says, in the last days there will be those who will accumulate unto themselves “teachers” who will tickled their ears with “false teachings.”
Here’s an interesting review of the more controversial Mormon heresies and their documentation in “sacred” Mormon writings.
To me the central issues of the Gospel of Jesus Christ are as follows:
1) God is eternal, ominipotent, omnipresent and transcendant. He is not subject to the material limitations of the universe or time itself. God has chosen to reveal Himself in three persons to humanity and only He is worthy of worship.
2) All the fullness of Deity dwelt in Jesus who chose to lay aside His glory and humble Himself, becoming as man so that He may redeem a fallen human race. He was uniquely fully God and fully man.
3) The completed work of Christ on the Cross is the propitiation (satisfactory substitutionary sacrifice) for the sins of the whole world. He and He alone is the Savior of the world to the glory of the Godhead, three in one.
4) One doesn’t earn salvation but one must actively appropriate it through faith alone. Once that relationship is established between God and an individual, it cannot be broken or lost, though a believer’s fellowship with God can be affected by sin or active indifference. The blood of Christ always cleanses us of all sin.
The fact Romney is a Mormon would not keep me from voting for him, though at this point Huckabee and Thompson would be my preference. Personally I don’t shun Mormons, many are sincere seekers. I may not appreciate their leadership reinterpreting the true nature of Christ and His mission as the Muslim’s Koran has also done (stripping Jesus of His true Deity), but we all see in a mirror dimly, just some more dimly than others.

But Delmar said, I’m with you fellas, the nondecision decision that dufused the issue.I think I’ll head up the draft Delmar for President movement.

When Jay Rockefeller was running for Governor of West Virginia he promised to make WV route 2 a four lane highway from Parkersburg to Ravenswood. Once he was elected he rerouted route 2 down I-77 and then across I believe what was route 33 which was already a four lane highway, thanks to Arch Moore, then he renumbered that section of route 2 to 68. I guess it was worth the expense of changing the route designations to have a four lane highway from P-burg to Ravenswood….

James, I looked at the report as I looked at my ex when he promised me that he wasn’t drinking anymore…Queen of De’Nile.
MKK: Or Chavez took away all of the guns so that when the people revolt because of no chickens in their pots, they become chicken. Of course down in those there parts of South Amer’ca, there is so much pot that it’s prob’ly in the chicken.

When it comes to the Middle East there are two things I conclude.
1. Peace is impossible.
2. War is inevitable.
This world is at enmity with God. They call the US and Israel “Satan”, when we are way more connected with God than they are, so if there is a side that is to be identified with Satan, guess who that would be ? We play the diplomacy card as long as it will hold, but one of these days someone is going to play their trump card and it will not be pretty. So many hope for peace, but it will not be. I am not warmongering, I just know that peace will not come until Christ rules and reigns. Too much bad blood to believe in peace there.

Maybe THAT was what he really promised : Pot in every chicken !! Easier than a chicken in every pot!

BUILD IT AND THEY WON’T COME
Hitler got his 1000 mile Atlantic wall built, The Commies got their Berlin wall built, The Chinese got their “Great wall” (900+ miles) built. BUT The most important (and vital) part of any wall is a genuine desire to build it! I’m 70 and doubt that I will live to see our wall/fence built. - the World Trade Center was built in just a few years - it’s not like we don’t know how to build it. Our technology is flawless - but our “Want to” is missing. Our only hope between now and when Jesus gets back is to secure the border with a real wall and high-tech fence combo with a total shutdown of all social services to illegals, revoking citizenship to all children born to illegal alien parents, MASSIVE fines for any and all employers guilty of hiring illegals. With finances gone they will go back home. With the influx of new illegals stopped cold - in a couple or three years no one will be able to find an illegal - Unfortunately the liberals won’t like it - it will take a conservative President and Congress but I’m just Pollyannaish enough to believe that with God’s intervention we can do it in ‘08!

70! Are you seventy? I never knew that!
That’s amazing, and you still have such a keen grasp of the situation.
