An average morning in the ER household
Dr. ER, in the living room, watching news: "Mumble mumble, F--- you! Mumble mumble!"
ER, overhearing, walking in from bedroom: "Did you just F-bomb my cat?" (Not an unusual occurence, since Ice-T knows who his daddy is, and it ain't Dr. ER, which he reminds her sometimes by biting her calf.)
Dr. ER: "No, the president."
ER: "Oh, that's perfectly acceptable."
A few minutes later ...
ER, keeping an ear on the TV as he pours coffee in the kitchen: "Don't talk to ME about 'pork,' you lying hypocritical sack of monkey s---t!"
Dr. ER, in the living room: "What? Are you talking to me?"
ER: "No, the president."
Dr. ER: "Oh, that's perfectly acceptable."
Mirth ensues. Gonna be lonesome after Saturday, when she jumps a stagecoach for Boulder.
Then, there's this:
More Sin as Spin from Focus on the Family Action, which focuses on everything BUT the family.
One: There is NO SUCH THING, and CAN BE NO SUCH THING, as "permanent" tax "relief." And calling the suspension of ill-advised and cold-hearted tax cuts "tax increases" is playing with words to the point of dishonesty.
Maybe both sides do it. But only one side presents itself as a moral alternative. What a joke.

"According to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, if the president's tax relief is not made permanent, a family of four earning $50,000 would see taxes go up 132 percent. A single parent with two children earning $30,000 would see taxes raised 67 percent."
This must be out there on the Republican Christian Spin Sheet.
Heard almost the exact thing on Pat Robertson's CBN "newscast" this week. Prima Facia it is a lie, cause no Democrat is gonna to that to the ones who vote for them, especially a year before elections.
But many of these guys follwers will believe what they say.
The Pope has resurected Hell recently, may there be a special place there for those who by choice mislead the faithful into sin.

What, they can't get a rise out of their followers anymore by hollering about killing unborn babies or marrying off Adam and Steve, so they're focusing on...taxes?
Lo, how the mighty have fallen.

I was actually *happy* Monday morning to turn on NPR and hear the fund-raiser happening--means less news to listen to, which I've been sick of lately. Haven't even had the energy to cuss at political bull, so I'm glad someone still is.
Oh, and ER, my new blog addy is intothestacks.wordpress.com.
