The Existentialist Cowboy: Teaching Darwin to Voodoo Evangelicals & Other Darwinophobes

Darwins birthday

The existentialist cowboy has a great tune up on the evangelical frenzied "Darwinism Vs God" bruha-ha.

Nothing differentiates grown up Christianity from the AmericanEvangelical brand like this issue.It has earned the Catholics, Anglicans and other Litergical churches criticism for over a century.

Good find

Found a new resource called "Newshoggers"

Was first drawn by an article of how Pakistan has lost a province to the Taliban.

Also saw anouther where a widely read neo-con gives a favorable comparison of the U.S. and the Roman Empire!

What did that Santayana guy say about repeating history again?

Shit yer brains out on Salmonella tainted peanut butter!

Slather up a slab of wonderbread for fatass Rush. Peanut a pita for Billo, a nice French baggette for Hannity, Khubz Arabi for Savage and Pan de Muertos for Lou Dobbs.

For while they have spooked their followers with tales of evildoers in the guise of A-rabs, Mexicans,frenchmen and Regulators they will be smitten by the plaque they helped perpetrate.

May their spews and gas and howles combine to the approximate notes of "God Bless the USA" in full tribute to the masquerade.

Meanwhile, back at the "Liberal Media" an insider had a documented story of how FDA regulators were called in from the field, but was turned down by the New York Times and Boston Globe.

If you kiss on an airplane, the terrorists have already won!

200 of our fellow citizens have been convicted of Terrorism, the war must be going well!

Although, when I see domestic arguments on busses, ridiculous active (and passive) child discipline, gross discourtesies by customers against workers and drunken, loutish behaviour in general, i wish people could be charged, convicted and punished for being an "assh@1e in public". But we have tied up 200 jail cells and given people Federal Felony convictions on their records for terrorism? This is absurd!

I appreciate the aircraft to be a closed and dangerous environment, as opposed to the North Versailles Wall Mart.But on visits there; my blood ran cold as people treatened fists, death and f#^%ing each others boyfriends. My daughter shivered in fright none the less, is this terrorism?

Interfering with the duties of a flight crew; yes, terrorism? lets stop the silliness.

History.....drudgery

Here I sit, 1:04 A.M. of a history making day, too kicked in the ass to expound on this great moment, for the labour of my meanial but important job.

Though I, and most of you, will not experience this event directly we can imagine the excitement of these events,presented on the stage which is our nations capital.

Here are 3 events of note, set there, in this beautiful city, where the aspirations of a weary, work-worn people are kicked squarely in the nuts by the force of corporate greed on a regular basis.

Barak Obama will not stop this occurring, but perhaps the nut crunching can take a few days off.

#1
3 cheers for uppity Negros and uppity women;

Opera Star Marion Anderson sings at the Lincoln memorial after being disallowed the use of constitution hall by the daughters of the American revolution.

#2
I have a dream, no explanation needed or given

#3
Corporate censorship, The prayer of Eugene Robinson, openly gay Bishop of the Episcopal Church clipped from the air by HBO (purveyors of every slutty piece of shit Hollywood ever made, but they cant have a prayer by.....you get the point!....)

Arterrorist

Every time I pick up a guitar, every time that I arpeggionate the the one chord of a Christmas Carol so my Autistic son can figure out the rest of it on his own, every time I open Anvil to orchestrate a tune swimming about in my head, I turn in to a F#$%in Communist.

Because artists are leftists and leftists are artists, they want tax money to put a crucifix in pee, and take glorious large format black and whites of bullwhips up butts.

Even worse than that, there are rumours that the Obamanation will be sponsoring do-gooder ,socialist, stirr up the working class, folk song and oral history collection ( a la Roosevelt).

God forbid we should have recorded the story of some old millhunk, who looked on as the "Coal and Iron Police", kicked the shit out of his father for union organizing, aint no oligarchy in Amerika, dont need no Commie bastards on the dole sayin' so. Damned trouble makin' libbrelz!!

I just whistled "God bless America", gotta go firebomb a Hummer.

Mideast turmoil

Despite the sympathies which would naturally arise for Ehud Olmert; having grown up 300 miles north of Vladivostok and North Korea in the Chinese city of Harbin ( His family Leaving Czarist Ukraine because they were Jews) Leaving Manchuria for Palestine just in time to miss the Japanese occupation and the subsequent occupation of Harbin by the USSR (where thousands of Russian exiles there were sent back at gunpoint) and despite the sympathies I have as a leftist for the only socialist Democracy in a sea of Capitalistpig Monarchies hiding their crass opulence behind the skirt of severe fundamentalist religion, I must protest.

Olmert has boasted that he called president Bush off the stage in the middle of a speech to tell him to vote no on the UN resolution for cease fire in Gaza.

It could be said that this was a lame duck prime minister blowing some bluster to secure his place in Israeli history, the Busheviks may be telling the truth when they say Secretary Rice busted her butt negotiating this agreement, planning all along to abstain on final passage but it must be likewise considered that we have, again been given the "dog shit on the shoe" treatment.

Juan Cole has this angle

From the folks who brought you Iraq!

Okay ye semi-passive consumers of the "War on Terror"

Time for the "War on Piracy"

Same baloney

Different baloney wrapper

God gives me people for the holidays!

Cool people are everywhere, I meet a lot of them at work. A local guitarist had heard that i played in various bands and suggested a visit to You-Tube for Johnny Winters "Keys to the Highway" (which was good). I countered that the only thing i had to offer was a theological website that provided a Catholic/Orthodox/Augustinian refutation of modern american fundamentalist protestant anti-evolutionary claptrap, to which he counter offered this: Chris Smither origin of species

Great stuff!!!

Holy Holidays!!

I hope you have had the Merriest of Christmases!

I am sure that the parade of Gods children surveyed in your family and friends at this feast of the Prince of Peace, contained some decidedly unpeacefull folks, ie. Fundamentalists, better yet pre-millenialist fundamentalists!

Have you been searching for an explaination of how some of these folks express their "christian love" by saying that you will spend eternity in the "lake of fire" for having voted for Obama.

The blessed talents of Joe Bageant, provide the best explaineroo I have seen yet, along with some recompense to ye liberal Catholics in the audience, a tie-in to Thomas Merton.

Its a bit long, but i figger yinz guys to be of the intellectual muster fer this stuff!

PS thanks to Matt i have the Bageant interview on CD and will forward it to Joe for inclusion on his Podcast list (a plot for some permenance to clairadio, no doubt!)

Everything you (liberals) know is wrong

After we start a War of perverse cost and motivation. After we brow-beat unions with $75/hr bullshit. Let us at long last remind the United States of Lemmings that FDR was Evil and Ronald Reagan proceedeth from the right hand of the father

those who do not know history are doomed to repeat their selective, willfull ignorance incessantly

The pushers of the Wall Mart economy want to claim the "trust buster" as their own.

Quite a stretch, Mahablog sets them straight.

sanity for Christmas

The column "Savage Love" appears in the city paper, it contained this letter which should be placed on the windshield of every car of every church, who thought it the greatest priority of the followers of Jesus, to "defend marriage" from Homosexuals.

One of Gods gifts, is to give us moral instuction from people who say motherf#$ker instead of "praise the lord".

In the instances of "Savage love" and "Rude Pundit" the instruction is superior, check them out and have a blessed Christmas.

Now stop playing with your pud and go out their and act like Jesus!

I'm a 28-year-old woman. I've been with my current boyfriend for five years. He's married and has been telling me the whole time that he's going to leave his wife eventually. There's always an excuse: a crisis with the kids, money problems, etc. I've been stupid to stay with him for so long, but I just can't keep away from him.

I just found out I'm pregnant, and I haven't told my boyfriend. This is the second time we've been pregnant. Last time he reacted very badly, and I miscarried after a few weeks. I know he'll want me to get rid of the baby, but I'm going to keep it.

Whenever his wife goes away, I go over to the house to spend time with him. I've been planting evidence of our affair around the house in the hopes his wife will find it. So far, no luck. I'd like him to be man enough to leave her, but that's probably never going to happen. I could leave him, but if I do, I want to make sure he's miserable. I'm not going to vanish from his life and leave him all happily ever after. I'm thinking of going and telling his wife. What do you think? Is there any way I can force him to tell her?

Now The Other Mom

No advice for you, NTOM, but plenty of prenatal sympathy for a poor unfortunate fetus who deserves better parents or his very own miscarriage.

I will, however, hold on to your letter. I'm going to forward a copy to every doucheburst who writes in to tell me that gay marriage is wrong because every child deserves a mother and a father. Moms and dads can be great—I had a terrific set, myself—but mix-matched genitals are not enough. Kids need loving, fit, and reasonably sane parents. Having one twatted parent and one pricked parent does not guarantee a happy childhood.

Republicans moon the middleclass

Close to a thousand billion dollars in corporate welfare were doled out in the financial bail out.

The Auto industry asks for bridge loans of less than 5 billion so all of a sudden, we have to have immediate wage cuts from those enemies of the American Oligarcy we call Unions.

Yes Virginia, as hard as it is to believe that this nice christian republican senator who is doing his best to protect you from radical islam and keep christ in christmas just told your daddy to go f#%k himself but that is, nonetheless the case.

Close to home

Any time private enterprise screws something up, through their innate orientation to stupidity and greed, we must find Libbbrrrralll Meddleing to blame!

Ford GM and Chrysler are on the ropes because of the EPA and CAFE standards!

The mortgage crises was caused by the Community reinvestment act requireing fly by night banks to actually invest in their communities by writing local mortgages instead of speculating in pork belly futures in Khualla Lampuur.

An explanation of why this right wing appologia is a bunch of crap

Back to normal

Received word from the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency that our funding is approved and our home is saved. Thanks to all who expressed concern. The way the economy is going, I wont be the last to go through this shit, I'm sure. I will give a more detailed explaneroo of this later, but suffice it to say, thanks to "community activists" such as the "Mon Valley Unemployed committee" and others who raised hell when the steel mills were shutting down in the 80's, thanks to progressive legislators such as Allen Kukovich and Tom Michlovic we have "Act 91" of 1983 on the books, the best foreclosure rescue program in the country.

I am sure that these good people were called "socialists" by Reagan Democrats and other deceived shitheads.

On behalf of my kids and wife, God bless the Socialists!

Sorry

Sorry for the absence since election day, bigger fish to fry. As some of you have figured from your reading of the legal notices we are in the fight of our lives to save our family home, I go in front of Judge Colville on monday the 24th to argue for a delay to the sherriffs sale schedualed for December 1st. Anyone with suggestion as to real good prayers or attorneys, give a holler at cet1360@yahoo.com. I will try to get back to it after i deal with this shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vote

Here are your reasons

Why the 60 Senate is so important

Joe Lieberman has endorsed McCain, after Obama stood by him in the Connecticut primary.

Joe Lieberman has betrayed the Democratic party.

Joe Lieberman is such a slut for the McCain campaign, that he has undermined the State Department and spoken with foreign leaders in a manner opposed to stated United States policy.

We need 60 in the senate so Joe can be sent to be the head of the Independent caucus.

Bernie Sanders, should be given Democrat credentials (and Joes committie assignments), so that Joe can be by himself.

As to point 3.

Read the last boldface paragraph of this

Had a REAL Democrat done this, they would have been labled "traitor", guilty of interfering with US foreign policy.

WHAT was Al Gore smoking in 2000?

ADDED BONUS

Poll numbers in Georgia are lookin bad for Saxby Chambliss, that lying sack of shit who savaged Max Cleland. The only thing sweeter than his seat being number 60, is when Liebermans becomes 61.
