It’s looking more and more like the ghosts of Bonnie and Clyde, Al Capone, Baby Face Nelson, and all their friends have moved and taken up residence in Washington, D.C. these days.

This won’t surprise you.

They are still trying to sneak the health care bill through the back door, so I advise everyone to keep up the pressure on your congress critters (representatives and your two unconstitutional Senators.

Don’t count on Scott Brown who brags about working with Ted Kennedy and John Kerry to "get things done."

Sounds like another typical liberal Republican to me - the more you learn about him, the less you like him.

What you need to know is they all work for the worldwide crime syndicate called the Illuminati that was founded in 1776.

What a year that was – great good and evil.

Speaking of gangsters, they are finding more and more of them in a place that you would never suspect: The U.S. Military!

With the Pentagon desperate for recruits, their policy of drafting everything that is willing to take a shot of poison (the vaccines they give the boys and girls we pretend we support) or perhaps another kind of shot (as in bullet that might come their way in Iraq or Afghanistan) for a paycheck, we now have many gangs represented in the military, fights breaking out between Hispanic and Black gangs.

There is trouble right here in Texas at Ft. Hood and Ft. Bliss (El Paso).

MS-13 is not a new secret weapon, but gang members who will return from the service with military training to our neighborhoods.

We have 30 percent of women veterans saying they were raped while in the service (go ahead Mom, have your daughter sign up.

Don’t blame yourself that is the only steady job available because you are a lazy slug that avoided politics and didn’t support the Constitution so the economy went to hell) while they turned our supposed military over the U.N. for Global Missions.

It is NOT our military anymore.

"We the People" don’t run it. Did you see the U.S. Navy TV commercial or print ad: "A GLOBAL FORCE For good."

Are you aware we have not participated in a single constitutionally authorized military operation since WWII.

Jay Leno said it and we laughed, but it’s true, "Why don’t we give the Iraqi’s our constitution; we don’t use it anymore."

That has to change.

Now Admiral Mullen and other military leaders are also planning "change" for your son by doing away with "don’t ask, don’t tell" allowing gays to serve openly.

With the support of our likely illegitimate, Moslem, communist, lying, Constitution destroying president, this is attempted change is unexpected.

Don’t say anything pastor. You might lose your 501 (c) (3) status as a "government" church. Boy, is that ever valuable! God will be impressed.

You know Obama and the socialist Democrats are likely to go along unless there is massive pressure from the voters.

Don’t worry about that dad, the Super Bowl is on making fun of slug men in the ads!

You might qualify as one unless you wake up.

Revivalist Pastor Charles Finney got it right: "If the church is degenerate and worldly, the pulpit is responsible for it.

"If the world loses its interest in religion, the pulpit is responsible.

"If Satan rules in our halls of legislation, the pulpit is responsible for it.

"If our politics become so corrupt that the very foundations of our government are ready to fall away, the pulpit is responsible for it."

Hey church, quit covering up wrongdoing!

That used to be called sin I think.

That really the source of most all our problems, unpopular as it may be.

The problem is here, not Washington, D.C.

We can do better.

1. Why reply.

Let crazy speak for itself.

[w8liftinglady]

6. because this is 75% of my county...and I can't stay silent.

It's hard to burn a cross in front of an apartment,so I'm not too afraid.

[Jim__]

2. The Illuminati? Wow!

From wikipedia:

Writers such as Mark Dice,<7> David Icke, Ryan Burke, Jüri Lina and Morgan Gricar, have argued that the Bavarian Illuminati survived, possibly to this day. Many of these theories propose that world events are being controlled and manipulated by a secret society calling itself the Illuminati.<8><9> Conspiracy theorists have claimed that many notable people were or are members of the Illuminati, including Winston Churchill, the Bush family,<10> Barack Obama,<11> the Rothschild family,<12> David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski.<13>

In addition to the shadowy and secret organization, several modern fraternal groups claim to be the "heirs" of the Bavarian Illuminati and have openly used the name "Illuminati" in founding their own rites. Some, such as the multiple groups that call themselves some variation on "The Illuminati Order"<14><15><16> use the name directly in the name of their organization, while others, such as the Ordo Templi Orientis, use the name as a grade of initiation within their organization.

I didn't think anybody talked about them anymore.

[ellenfl]

3. tel him you enjoyed the satire. eom

[NoSheep]

10. oooh! I like that!

[w8liftinglady]

40. well...he'd have to look up "satire"-it's not in the tea party manual

[ellenfl]

41. he could ask sarah. eom

[mrcheerful]

4. Socialist Dems for wanting to enforce the bill of rights vs rob from the middle class to

give to the filthy rich who don't want to pay for their share Republicons, great choice your seeking welfare state Texas. Why don't you leave the union and see how independent you nit wits really are, btw, pay back the states that bought your football team a billion dollar stadium you welfare jerk, also your military bases will be closed, dismantled, after all you don't want those tax dollars, also the NASA base will be closed as well as dismantled. Also all those low rent oil wells your oilmen get to pump oil out of government ground, yep those will be stopped to so drill baby drill in your own back yard. .

[Bigmack]

5. Tell him to seek help.. and take his meds. nt

[JVS]

7. Who edits your paper? They should print only coherent letters.

"your two unconstitutional Senators" How?

[gratuitous]

9. Yeah, I'd write to the editor, not for publication

Why in the world would they provide a platform to such incoherent nonsense?

[w8liftinglady]

12. I did...I cancelled my(paid) subscription

told him I could not financially support a newspaper that condoned lies and derision about our troops and commander-in-chief during wartime.I told him that the editorials incite domestic terrorism.(believe me,this editorial is the rule,not the exception)

[EFerrari]

19. Ditto. n/t

[w8liftinglady]

20. and it wasn't a letter to the editor-it was a guest columnist

[JVS]

35. Jesus!

[aka-chmeee]

8. WOW! He's Good!

Our local repub rag has one who I thought was pretty well out there, but he's just an amateur compared to yours.

[GoCubsGo]

24. Mine is full fo people like that...

I see letters like this nearly every day. This guy is an amateur compared a few of them. Not surprising that my paper prints their spew. Their syndicated political columnist consist of the likes of Bill O'Reilly, Malkin, and if they feel like publishing something "liberal", they carry George Will's column.

[w8liftinglady]

28. lol..you have my condolences

[sinkingfeeling]

33. I feel sorry for you. If the only doctors you have in the area write like Dr. James Royer, move to

Dallas!

"February 11th, 2010

I just wanted to comment on the fine conservative quality of your Editorial page. I enjoy is immensely. We began receiving your paper just a few months ago (when the Lancaster Today folded...?). I have been clipping and saving most of the best ones. Keep up the good work. Maybe one day one of your contributors can give us an up date on the CFR and their imput into the Obama team.

Thanks,

Dr. James Royder

11. So now the Tea Baggers have a newspaper in Texas. This is the same stuff the NYT wrote about.

This guy is a member of resistnet. com and vice chairman of the Constitution Party of Texas. Both of these 'organizations' are memtioned in the NYT article entitled "Tea Party Movement Lights Fuse for Rebellion on Right."

[damyank913]

17. That paper must have a lot of pictures in it.

[w8liftinglady]

18. lol..it's 8 pages long...

i page devoted to arrests in the county,one for the various church services,one for sports,one for opinions,one for classified,and one for news...with a ton of ads.

[sinkingfeeling]

21. But is this guy really an editor or just a 'guest' writing this crap?

[w8liftinglady]

22. this is the editor-the link leads to HIS editorials...

http://www.elliscountypress.com/authors/?authorID=9

[damyank913]

26. Looks like an in-bred Cheney clone.

[damyank913]

23. Why waste a page on news...

Those baggers only need Rush and Glen Beck for their news.

[w8liftinglady]

25. well-the news is generally how "barack Hussein Obama-non-American" is going to tax them

[damyank913]

31. Don't forget the post taxing annihilation that the Great Beck prophesied about.

and then he's gonna try to mate with all our daughters. Yeah we've got our share of fanatics here in VA also.

[damyank913]

13. It's good that they print this drivel...

Ppl that don't vote need to see what awaits them.

[Frustratedlady]

14. The one reply sounds pretty good.

This must be a FAUX viewer. Tell him to go hunting with Cheney.

[w8liftinglady]

15. um-that reply was me...

[GrantDem]

16. I figured it wouldn't take long for the wackos to get pissed at Brown.

This is quicker then I thought.

[jaksavage]

27. Not like they will read it but

I like to post responses like this.

“THE PARTY WITH THE BEST RECORD OF SERVING REPUBLICAN ECONOMIC VALUES IS THE DEMOCRATS, AND IT ISN’T EVEN CLOSE!” -Michael Kingsley-


1). FEDERAL SPENDING: since 1960 Republicans increased Federal Spending by 71% more than have Democrats

2). FEDERAL DEBT: since 1960 Republicans have increased the National debt by 100% more per year than have Democrats.

3). GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT: since 1921, adjusted for inflation, Democrats out-produce Republicans by 43% . Starting in 1940 the Democratic advantage is 23% better.

4). REAL PER CAPITA INCOME: since 1960 Democrats have outperformed Republicans by 30%. (This is perhaps the most important economic statistic of all)

5). INFLATION: since 1960, Democrats outperform Republicans 3.13% to 3.89%

6). UNEMPLOYMENT: since 1960 it decreases in an average Democratic year by 0.3% to 5.33%, and increases in average Republican year by 1.1% to 6.38%.

7). JOB CREATION: from 1945 to 2003, Democrats produced 174,200 jobs per month, Republicans have only produced 60,600 per month. Every time a Democrat succeeds a Republican, job creation soars. Every time a Republican succeeds a Democrat job creation plummets. NO EXCEPTIONS!

8). DOW JONES AVERAGE: since 1921 the DOW has increased by 52% more under Democratic administrations

9). THE BOND MARKET: since 1940 the value of 10 year Treasury bonds rose 1.2% under Democrats and fell 0.5% under Republicans

RESULTS MATTER, VOTE DEMOCRATIC!

[superduperfarleft]

29. Offer to help him pay for his medication.

Sounds like he's not taking it regularly.

[damyank913]

32. You need to use positive reinforcement....

Tell him he can wear his white pointed hat if he takes all his pills.

[superduperfarleft]

34. I prefer cattle prods, but then I'm known for overkill. n/t

[Javaman]

30. his "editorial" (if that's what you want to call this little piece of insanity) reads

like it was copied whole from "Tribulation 99". A funny little pseudo documentary that supposedly links together all conspiracy theory into one large crazy/funny watch.

We are living through the fringe era, where anyone with a computer, lots of time on their hands, a crazy theory founded on bullshit can be looked upon as credible only because they scream the loudest, the most often and enjoy writing via stream of consciousness.

Meh. These guys, sadly, are a dime a dozen these days.

What is more frightening, is that the rag printed it.

[blogslut]

36. Are you still writing LTEs to that paper?

If so, I'd ask the editor for equal space for your editorial reply. You don't have to rebut the crazy dude word-for-word. All you have to do is express your views in a constructive (as opposed to destructive) manner.

[w8liftinglady]

37. no-my editor is very good about equal time...

he may be a neocon,but he likes the debate(and it sells papers and ad space)

[ddeclue]

38. Why bother? Who runs such long ass editorials anyways?

I've been published 3 times w Op Eds and once with an LTTE in the Orlando Sentinel and they limit Op Eds to 500 words and LTTE's to something like 250 words.

[w8liftinglady]

39. because somewhere out there there may be a kindred spirit

who has been intimidated by these bullies.Maybe it can change one person's view.
