Freakers Freakin': Repukes lose Bible Study Room in Congress

[maxrandb]

Seems that they will have to find a different place to hold Bible Study.

I know, and you know, that what happened is that a room that they used to use to hold Bible Study now belongs to the majority party and they will have to find a different place to meet.

You know, and I know that the Dems didn't ban Bible Study, but as is typical of the Limbaugh mentality, the Freakers see this as a sign that the "godless, heathenist, satanic Dems" are going to fill it with tributes to their pagan god.

Let me guess--they will decorate with pagan symbols.

I expect the Dems will call in a voodoo priestess and sacrifice some chickens to exorcise the righteousness from the room before they occupy it.

Hey! Is the freaker known as "Unmarked Package" the "white powder terrorist"?. I'm also concerned about the mental health of the Freaker going by the name "SolidWood". When did they begin naming themselves after the content of their skulls?

:rofl:

[Union Thug]

1. LOL! This is TOOOOOO Funny! n/t

[bryant69]

2. Voodo Priestess?

And who says Freepers might have a problem with bigotry!

9. I would not want to mess with Marie Lavou

You know a woman must be powerful when she has at least three graves in New Orleans; and there remains the question of whether she is actually dead.

[maxrandb]

12. This is just a Freaker

that has spent way too much time masturbating to the chicken scene with Lisa Bonet in Angel Heart.

He probably needs to get out of his mom's basement every now and then.

[Fuzz]

50. He could have picked worse

She was hot in that movie.

;)

[maxrandb]

56. I watched the Cosby Show every week

and I remember thinking when this movie came out; "where in the heck were they hiding that body all those years".

Of course I was rather young back then.

[MrCoffee]

72. if that's the standard, i need to get an account over there.

good movie.

[KingFlorez]

3. Well, when you lose the majority, this is what happens

There are other rooms and no one is stopping them from studying the bible.

[maxrandb]

4. I Just Had to Add

In response to the below wingnut

Excuse me Unmarked Package, but I hear Congressman Foley did have some righteous parties in there with underage male Congressional Pages. Don't know how the Dems are ever going to "measure up"...if you know what I mean.

[Fire Walk With Me]

11. Now now, don't enrage them with reality...

And why can't I be a Democrat AND a believer in God, and still not want to force others to think as I do? And as said earlier, how hard will it be to find someplace else to study? Did anyone tell them that they CAN'T study the bible? And all of it's admitted contradictions amidst some amazing concepts and truths? That's what they should study, not how to take over the government.

[maxrandb]

15. Wonder Who was "teaching" the Bible Study

was it Bob Ney? He's going to have some "biblical" experiences during his 18 years in Federal "pound me in the ass" Prison.

[aquart]

24. I wonder about the attendance.

Did they just sign in and leave?

[maxrandb]

25. During my one failed Quarter at College

we had a bar called "The Library"

you could honestly tell mom and dad that you were going to "the Library". I'm pretty sure this probably worked the same way.

[Clark2008]

37. OK - did you go to UT?

Because we had a bar called The Library here at dear Old University of Tennessee at Knoxville.

[maxrandb]

39. OSU

Go Buckeyes!!

[AnneD]

54. We had that

at Baylor (Baptist) in Waco Texas. The only place I knew where the university was more conservative than the town. Loved telling my roommates folks that they were at The Library. :rofl:

[FairVotes4all]

52. Nice Office Space reference.

[InternalDialogue]

5. At what point do their mommies tell them to quiet down and go to bed?

Their frenzied, snickering, impotent jabs remind me of what used to go on at junior-high sleepovers.

"High five! Pass the Cheeto's."

[BOSSHOG]

6. Members of free republic would like for

republicans like mark foley to have a quiet place to take their pages and meditate quietly on their knees. A lot of fucking good a prayer room has done for our country with the republicans in charge. Congress does not need a prayer room, it needs a constitution room to contemplate the fate of the land of the free. We are not the land of focus on the family, albeit I think its fair to say that incest and the seeking of gay prostitutes and young boys are religious events in many "christian" "communities."

[maxrandb]

60. We should turn it into a Soup Kitchen

Something tells me that Jesus would appreciate that a lot more than a place where a bunch of hypocrites used to meet to figure out how to use the Bible to divide us.

Maybe when Tom Delay read the part about "rendering onto Caesar what is Caesar's", he really thought they were talking about him.

[NOLADEM]

7. FUCKING BIBLE STUDY shouldn't be in a Federal or State owned building anyway

This shit doesn't belong in our Federal Buildings. Do the invisible friend shit at home, Freeps.

We live in a secular country founded by Deists. Choke on it.

[arewenotdemo]

32. absolutely

[Cass]

33. Right on, NOLADEM!!

:applause:

[Clark2008]

38. Actually, I have no problem with it as long as they have a

Qur'an Room and a Talmud Room and a meditation room and a Voodoo Room and...

you get my point.

The problem with allowing one is that you have to allow them all.

[Hippo_Tron]

46. I don't have a problem with them studying the bible, but having a designated room...

Is more than a bit ridiculous. If it happens to be where they meet to study bible and the room is used for something else the other 23 hours of the day, that's fine. But if the GOP only allowed it to be used for bible study, then there's something seriously wrong with that.

[noonwitch]

61. They shouldn't get a room set aside for that purpose alone

I work for the state and there was a group that used to have a Bible study during lunch hour once a week. They had to sign up to use the conference room like any other group, and were moved to a different room if there was a business need for that room at that time.

That's fair, because any other religious group is bound by the same rules and opportunities.

[Marnieworld]

66. Amen to that!

Is that what they were elected to do? I always thought that it was very inappropriate and possibly intimidating to staff members who do not want to participate. Should there really be religious tests in gov't? The Constitution thinks not.

[beth9999]

70. Heck, I'm in favor...

... of not only throwing the Bible out of Congress, but out of the country alltogether. Seriously, that book is a major hazard. Look at how much trouble it has caused throughout history (and continues to cause).

[SoCalDem]

8. Perhaps the BASEMENT rooms will be available to them

or they could rent the meeting room at the local IHOP :)

[Binka]

49. Get A Short Stack Along With Jaysus ..ShitHowdy It Works For me

Damn SoCal we are just nasty HEATHENS!

[evilgenius602]

10. we should fill it with shelf after shelf of My Pet Goat

[Ganja Ninja]

13. These people are in serious need of a life.

It's sad and makes you wish there was something you could do or some government program to help them. Perhaps packing them all off to Baghdad so they could fight for their lives would give them a fresh perspective and take their minds off trivial bullshit like this.

[ComerPerro]

14. this will make for some perfect RW fundraising, "Dems hate God" emails

[mondo joe]

16. I propose we make it the All Gay Marriage & Adoption Headquarters.

[warrens]

17. Anything that causes them pain is fine by me

Turn it into a Wicca celebration room, just to fuck with them. Snicker.

[Mz Pip]

18. Considering the Repugs

wouldn't give Democrats rooms to hold legitimate meetings, this iseems pretty minor. Besides why are the Repugs meeting for Bible Study on my tax dollar? Can't they go to a church basement after work like everyone else does?

Mz Pip
:dem:

[elehhhhna]

19. "they will decorate with pagan symbols"...like Peace signs

[zbdent]

20. Seems like a lot of those Repukes needed to study the Bible a bit

more closely ... you know, like ... OPENING THE THING AND READING THE TEN COMMANDMENTS!

Instead of studying it, closed and on their desk (for show) ...

[maxrandb]

55. I finally figured out what's wrong with the Republicans!

This really was a "do nothing" Congress. They moved so slow, that their Bible Study group never made it past the book of Leviticus.

Maybe by the year 2050 they'll make it to the New Testament.

[tabasco]

21. Is that where they were gettin' it on with the pages?

No wonder the repubs are pissed.

[sinkingfeeling]

22. I didn't know a room in the Capitol could be righteous. I thought rooms were just rooms.

[RedCappedBandit]

23. Pagan symbols?

Oh, you mean like a "christmas" tree?

[maxrandb]

26. Dammit People. STOP MAKING SENSE!

We know it doesn't work with Freaker and the nuttiest of the wing-nuttery.

[underpants]

28. and wreaths?

What next- the yule log?

[Virginia Dare]

27. Hey, I got an idea...

how about they use the Capitol building to do the business of governing and they use churches to pray in? :think:

[AtomicKitten]

29. Bible study my ass. They're sacrificing goats to the god of $$$$.

too bad, so sad

[eleny]

30. Give them that stuffy room they gave us for our hearing

The one down in the basement.

[devilgrrl]

31. Of course they lost it - they were using it as a bath house!

[Jacobin]

34. Bad DevilGirl, Bad bad bad!!

:spank:

[Occulus]

68. But easy on the eyes

:D

[KansDem]

35. Oh, man! What next? Loose the bible-study room then the coronation room?

You know, the place where the Senate of the Congress of the United States of American, founded on the principles of democracy and the Enlightenment, go to coronate would-be religious "kings of peace?"

You Tube

The dog-and-pony show starts at about 7' 02"...

[maxrandb]

40. Isn't the Coronation Room

Where the repukes selected King George as King for Life?

[KansDem]

44. If given half-a-chance, they would... (eom)

[KharmaTrain]

36. In The Basement With Them...

Just like how the Democrat were forced to have Conyers hearings with Cindy Sheehan, Joe Wilson and others last year.

Let them pray all day down there...keep them away from getting in the way of straightening out all the messes they've left over the past 12 years.

[symbolman]

41. A better name would be

PECKERWOOD :)

Yeah, the BASEMENT room where I filmed the Downing Street Minutes Hearing would be a GREAT PLACE for them Bible Thumpers, they could cover the folding tables with Butcher paper, make Hand written signs and toss a few flags in there, and Let the CIRCLE JERK begin..

[GrantDem]

42. Shocking!!!

It is absolutely amazing that some of them are making sense:wow: :wow: :wow:

To: OldGuard1

Nothing out of the ordinary, pretty much what the republicans did, when they won. Just standard change of command.

I agree...the Bible Study Room was probably just a conference room that the Republicans had control over being the majority party. Now that the Dems are in control, it is their room to do with as they wish. It's not like they're banning the Bible Study group or anything.

I am not used to seeing rationale coming from from Freepers

[Minnesota_Lib]

43. Oh come on! I'm sure there is a broom closet that can be spared.

[Hippo_Tron]

45. Freepers are saying that Dems will make it NAMBLA room and have access to kiddy prn

This from the party of Mark Foley?

[jmowreader]

48. They can't do THAT...it would still be full of Republicans!

[Skittles]

47. LISTEN UP YOU FREEPER BASTARDS

WHAT THE F*** IS IT ABOUT SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE YOU DON'T F***ING UNDERSTAND ???????????????

[treestar]

51. Repukes don't study the Bible too well

And that's the nicest way to put it.

:rofl:

[Vinca]

53. Maybe some of their K St. buddies will provide space.

Oops - I forgot. They're not buddies anymore. No bills, no favors, no bucks, no buddies.:cry:

[magellan]

57. So now we're paying our representatives to spend time studying the bible?!?!?!?

That room either got zero use, or it serves to explain why the Repugs didn't get anything useful done in six years.

[Lilith Velkor]

58. Interesting that criminal negligence = righteousness to these fucks

Explains a lot, don't it? :grr:

[in_cog_ni_to]

59. Don't worry your pretty little pea brains freepers! Conyers has a BASEMENT ROOM

just waiting for prayers.:7

[mondo joe]

62. Face it Freepers: God likes the Democrats better, or they wouldn't have won.

[ripple]

63. Is that the meeting Hillary attends?

It was in a Time magazine article about her a couple of months ago. The one Time talked about is a Wednesday morning prayer group, so maybe it's different. The article was pointing out how Hillary has made in-roads with senate rethugs and this is one of the ways she has done it. Brownback actually apologized to her in one of the meetings for his hatred of her and his treatment of her in the past. I found this article from the Atlantic that talks about it, too:

www.theatlantic.com/doc/200611/green-hillary

[Hubert Flottz]

64. I'd wear my snake boots in that room if I were those new guys.

[AllegroRondo]

65. In accordance with Matthew 6:5-6

all prayer and bible study in the capitol building will now be held in a closet.

[bullwinkle428]

67. I think you'd be hard pressed to find one Freeper that's actually

read the Bible, beyond the ability to recite the typical Repuke soundbites like "God created Adam & Eve, not Adam & Steve"... :puke:

[Marr]

69. People who advocate war and neglecting the poor have no business talking

about the Bible or Christianity.

[Strawman]

71. Oh no! Where will the Rev. Moon hold court now? n/t
