"When you choose to work with the National Christian Foundation, you get a partner that shares your Biblical perspective on giving...We teach [donors] valuable ways to invest dollars into God's Kingdom, rather than surrender whose dollars to the federal government"--The National Christian Foundation

Tucked between two large hospital complexes on the northern perimeter of Atlanta's vast sprawl is the largest and least known single financial delivery system to the Christian Right.
Since its founding nearly twenty-five years ago, the National Christian Charitable Foundation--AKA The National Christian Foundation-- has become the leading financial delivery system to the Religious Right, having channeled nearly $1 billion to ministries, conservative think tanks and political activists around the country and overseas. NCF operates so far under the public radar that even its hometown newspaper, the Atlanta Constitution, has never featured them in an article.

Interesting, isn't it, that the military relief convoys are arriving in NOLA at the Superdome and allegedly on their way to the Convnetion Center just in time for Bush's arrival there? Now the President can be photo'ed handing out MREs and water to the ravaged folks just like when he and Bro' Jeb did their Potemkin relief stunt handing out bags of ice post-hurricane in Florida..and that, folks, will be the image of the day..W to the rescue..guess they had to wait until he got there.

Katrina swamped the Bush GOP down here in the South, breeching the levee that held the Red resevoir in place. She stripped off the veneer of the New South like the aluminum roof of the Superdome. The South is the most self-identifying region of the country--Texas is, of course, unto itself. Southerners are Southerners first and Republicans or Democrats second. Read More

The Religious Right is not a religious movement. It is a political machine, a multiplatform apparatus bankrolled by ultraconservative billionaires and run by theocratic Christian ideologues and Reagan era New Right operatives. As such, it's primary function is not the "saving of souls" but the promulgation of radical free-marketeer economic policies guised as Christian "family values." Witness today's email blitz from James Dobson's Focus On the Family--a 4-page pdf titled "Beyond Our Generation--Questions and Answers About the President's Plan for Social Secuirty Reform". It can be found here: http://family.org/cforum/pdfs/fosi/government/BeyondOurGeneration.pdf Read More

Heard the President say the word "freedom" 28 times today in his speech in freezing DC.
Caused me to think of this from back in the Reagan day..pulled it out and played it...suggest if you have a copy you might do the same......

Jokerman
by Bob Dylan

Standing on the waters casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing.
Distant ships sailing into the mist,
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while ahurricane was blowing.
Freedom just around the corner for you
But with the truth so far off, what good will it do?
