Newton Discovers Jesus
Ole Newton Leroy Gingrich has tossed his hat into the ring. He and his cute little trophy wife number 3 (she’s 22 years younger) say that Newton has discovered Jesus. I don’t know if Newton was sitting under an apple tree when Jesus fell on him or what. I wonder if Nitwit has told his entire conservative, family values flock that most of his campaign money comes from a gambling mogul. I doubt it, he has to sell them on wifey pooh #3 and being born again first.
The Texas Senate has passed Dan (Pillsbury dough boy) Patrick’s bill to allow lawmakers to pack heat anywhere they go, ie, church, bars, sporting events. In other words, in all kinds of places no one else can carry a gun. Gee, sounds to me like these boys are feeling a little paranoid, you know like maybe folks are out to get them for doing such a lousy job.
Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife of 25 years, Maria Shriver, announced Monday that they are separating. I’m not sure which one delivered the line, “I won’t be back.”
Here is a good one. It’s called the Free State Project and the members call themselves “Free Staters.” Today, nearly 1,000 of these “Free Staters” have moved to New Hampshire and if the movement succeeds, 20,000 Free Staters will soon be living in a Granite State community focused on libertarian, small-government principles.
Most of these Free Staters are followers of Libertarian Ron Paul. A spokesman for the Libertarians said, “We felt we could maximize our influence by trying to focus on a single state where we could move and start to impact the political system.” The movement started in 2003 and now 12 members of the New Hampshire legislature call themselves Free Staters. New Hampshire is also where the Presidential primary kicks off. I am assuming since the motto on their license plates is “Live Free Or Die,” you either have to join the Free Staters or kill yourself. Kool-Aid anyone?
And another preacher bites the dust. Evidently lying is in their DNA. The Rev. Jim Moats, a 59-year-old pastor at the Christian Bible Fellowship Church in Newville, Pa. has been telling his flock for years that he served in Vietnam and was a Navy Seal. It seems both stories were a big fat lie.
After he was dumb enough to do an interview with The Patriot-News, a real navy seal confronted him and he confessed he made it all up. He said he took some things that he had seen in a Steven Segal movie and passed them off as true. Steven Segal? At least he could have come up with a real actor like Matt Damon or Bruce Willis.
Today's good read is Red On Red by Edward Conlon. A very well written detective story written by a real detective. This is one of the best books I've read lately.
Stay tuned for futures adventures.
