NEWBERG, Ore. - Officials of a small Christian university say a life-size cardboard effigy of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was hung from a tree on the campus.


How very Christian of them.

7. Not me.
Nooses were found last year outside a frat house in Corvallis, following a scandal where a group of students wore black face and afro wigs to a football game.

8. oh, so, very, christian of them, Do you think Jesus would know them?
Yes folks there are some sicko assholes out there that have never had to interact with a black/yellow/red person on a one to one level. Never had to look them in the eyes, never thought of inviting someone of a different skin tone to their homes for a beer and some food. They live in this little living room of their minds and never go outside. Sad small people is all they'll ever amount to until they join forces and let their hate run rampant.

I've often wondered "when do they begin to teach their children not to share or hit"?

As for the topic of my post, it's how they feel.

Peace
