1. Great!
I've managed to convince my mom but I'm still working on my dad. He tends to think everything like this is tin foil, but I've shown him a lot of the evidence and he seems open to the idea that fraud took place.

2. It's Christmas Night and there's a Full Moon out....
<pssst. The power structure of the vast far right conservative evangelists are slowly converting into a Moonie cult. We're fighting a CULT that think's its better than democracy!!!>

Fa la la la la...la...la la la

3. Evangelicals love to say, "God has a plan 4 your life". it used to mean
... that God was guiding and supporting you in your personal journey..but now, under Bushco's co-optation of conservative Christian jargon it also seems to imply that "My GOD is bigger than your god, you're either with me or against me, might makes right...get over it ...join my little Fascist Coup or assume the position and die."

Iron Fascist hand in velvet 'Christian' glove. wedge issues divide and conquer, unless communication links are established to identify and stake out common ground. our work is cut out for us.

4. True, but....
I believe that half of that work may take care of itself once the "Moral Majority" of conservative evangelicals come to realize who it is that's really calling the shots for them in Washington D.C.

5. Don't all religions say the equivalent of
My GOD is bigger (and better, of course) than your god.

Hope you had a great Christmas Faye and others and a nice high, needless to say.

7. Yes, I'm an enthusiastic member of the Rotary or Son of Stream
It's a more social way of unwinding than macsolitaire, kind of like staring at the wall but using your subconscious and having others to play with. Very therapeutic.

8. I'm so happy for you, Faye!
I'm spending my holiday with Republicans. :( My in-laws are here and my husband's sister and family are coming today.

I guess my brother kind of balances. He just came in from Thailand and is so liberal that it may as well be written on his forehead. :)
