C. Boyd https://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/1/8/1268184/-Why-I-Continue-to-Fight-for-Being-Christian-A-Novel-By-K-C-Boyd A year after publication, why do I continue to trumpet the dark and ugly voice of a quasi-fictional, abused child turned mega-pastor, John Christian Hillcox? As in Being Christian. A voice compellingly charismatic. Ultimately manipulative. A voice we want to turn away from. Want to believe no one would listen to. Needing to know that theocrats won’t prevail. Alas, nothing old is new. rss@dailykos.com (Save Ohio Now) BeingChristian Bible ChristianNation Dominionism elmergantry End Times EndTimes Evolution Global Warming GlobalWarming JesusCreationism KCBoyd Theocracy _1268184 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 23:33:05 +0000 NEWSFLASH: Koran burning con artists couldn't care less! https://www.dailykos.com/story/2010/9/7/899773/-NEWSFLASH-Koran-burning-con-artists-couldn-t-care-less Recent headlines trumpeted Gen. Petraeus' concern that a couple of idiots in Gainesville might put the lives of hundreds, if not thousands, of our troops in danger.  I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if anyone thinks they are going to avoid a shitstorm by appealing to the patriotism and compassion of bible-thumping con artists like Terry and Sylvia Jones, they are in for one hell of a rude awakening.  You see, Terry Jones has something David Petreaus doesn't have.  Terry Jones has an exit plan.  An integral part of that plan is to create as big a distraction as possible so he can take the money and run. This is the third in a series of posts documenting the operations of Terry and Sylvia Jones of Gainesville, FL.  I am putting this out here hoping it will catch fire and unmask these rat bastards before they cause terrible damage.  Let me give you the punchline up front: Terry and Sylvia Jones are predators with a history of preying on their flock.  As far as they are concerned, Private Ryan can save his own ass, the "benjamins" are all these con artists care about.   rss@dailykos.com (8ackgr0und N015e) ConArtists Dominionists DonNorthrup DoveWorldOutreachCenter DWOC elmergantry Grifters KoranBurning MaranathaMinistries MythingThePoint stealinginthenameofgod SylviaJones TerryDJones TerryJones _899773 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 19:59:27 +0000 Beck promised us a miracle; where's our miracle?! https://www.dailykos.com/story/2010/8/30/897577/-Beck-promised-us-a-miracle-where-s-our-miracle You promised us a MIRACLE. Not just a good show... a freaking MIRACLE! You said something miraculous would happen! I'll confess, I didn't watch, but I figured even the lame stream media would cover a bona fide miracle.  I ain't seen nuthin' in the papers, so I gotta ask, what was it?  Did you walk across the reflecting pool?  Did the water fountains part into colored and white?  Did you feed the multitudes with nothing but cotton candy words?  Did you raise Sarah Palin's conscience from the dead?  Did you heal the batshit insane Michele Bachmann?  Did you find a good parking space?  Anything.... Bueller?  .... Bueller? Glenn Beck, where is my miracle!?   Is it in the mail?  Someone stole it?  Will it be waiting for me when I get home from school?  Will I find it under my pillow when I lay down tonight?  Did I blink and miss it?

Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) are helping with fundraising and two of the main engineers of the tea party movement – FreedomWorks and Tea Party Patriots – are offering volunteers as well as logistical advice.    The rally and Beck’s increasing political forays have made him an object of suspicion among some conservatives, even as they acknowledge his influence and potential importance as a spokesman.    "The conservative movement is still split on Glenn and whether he’s doing it for himself or doing it for the movement," said Erick Erickson, founder of the influential conservative blog Red State. </blockquote> rss@dailykos.com (tjlabs) CNN elmergantry Erick Erickson ErickErickson Glenn Beck GlennBeck JamesCarville Sarah Palin SarahPalin TeaPartyPatriots UnitedStates _885081 Sat, 17 Jul 2010 13:36:02 +0000 Politics and Shooting Pool https://www.dailykos.com/story/2010/2/26/840911/-Politics-and-Shooting-Pool Being frustrated by the goings on in 'foggy bottom' I decided to take an extended trip to a country where english isn't spoken by every third person and my spanish isn't good enough to allow me to take off on some tirade about how badly things got screwed up in the U.S.of A. and who was responsible for the screw up.

Obama is slated to give the commencement address at Notre Dame! Culture warriors, unite! We can't stop gay marriage, but if we whine loudly enough, we can do God's will by not letting a godless Socialist speak at the same sacred ground that gave us "Touchdown Jesus"! What we need in these trying times is a paragon of virtue, a man who believes in the sanctity of marriage (What? Obama has never been divorced? Well, he's still a Godless Socialist!), we need a man who can lead by example, a man who leads by example of the biblical teachings he blathers about.
