freydo- Find a better hero than Inhofe. He is one of the Evangelical Far Right who somehow think that the Industrialized world has had no effect on the environment, and that somehow admitting environmental damage is against God and his great plan. Inhofe is also against protection for gays in job discrimination and against their right to marry. He also has this idea that Jews alone have the right to live and own land in Israel. Like McCain he would have us involved militarily in numerous conflicts around the world, like we don't have enough of that going on already.

Ahh thank you for the clarification. I couldnt be bothered to look deeply into it, it was so ludicrous. Random people making rediclous requests on the internet? That makes sense ;)

Romans 1
21 For even though they knew God, they did not [ n ] honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and [ o ] crawling creatures. 24 Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. 25 For they exchanged the truth of God for [ p ] a lie,

Hi freydo! Paul Harvey was one of the only radio personalities that I enjoyed listening to at times. I made the link clickable for you so it will be easier.

This speech was broadcast by legendary ABC Radio commentator Paul Harvey on April 3, 1965:
If I were the Devil . . . I mean, if I were the Prince of Darkness, I would of course, want to engulf the whole earth in darkness. I would have a third of its real estate and four-fifths of its population, but I would not be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree, so I should set about however necessary to take over the United States. I would begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: “Do as you please.” “Do as you please.” To the young, I would whisper, “The Bible is a myth.” I would convince them that man created God instead of the other way around. I would confide that what is bad is good, and what is good is “square”. In the ears of the young marrieds, I would whisper that work is debasing, that cocktail parties are good for you. I would caution them not to be extreme in religion, in patriotism, in moral conduct. And the old, I would teach to pray. I would teach them to say after me: “Our Father, which art in Washington” . . .
If I were the devil, I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting so that anything else would appear dull an uninteresting. I’d threaten T.V. with dirtier movies and vice versa. And then, if I were the devil, I’d get organized. I’d infiltrate unions and urge more loafing and less work, because idle hands usually work for me. I’d peddle narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. And I’d tranquilize the rest with pills. If I were the devil, I would encourage schools to refine yound intellects but neglect to discipline emotions . . . let those run wild. I would designate an athiest to front for me before the highest courts in the land and I would get preachers to say “she’s right.” With flattery and promises of power, I could get the courts to rule what I construe as against God and in favor of pornography, and thus, I would evict God from the courthouse, and then from the school house, and then from the houses of Congress and then, in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion, and I would deify science because that way men would become smart enough to create super weapons but not wise enough to control them.
If I were Satan, I’d make the symbol of Easter an egg, and the symbol of Christmas, a bottle. If I were the devil, I would take from those who have and I would give to those who wanted, until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And then, my police state would force everybody back to work. Then, I could separate families, putting children in uniform, women in coal mines, and objectors in slave camps. In other words, if I were Satan, I’d just keep on doing what he’s doing.
Paul Harvey, Good Day.

If one looks at the big picture, I wonder if it could be said that:
Obama is SBNR (Spiritual But Not Religious),
and Romney is RBNS (Religious But Not Spiritual)?

'If I were the Devil...I would whisper- the Bible is a myth' Smart Devil.

freydo
Obama's spirit - it leans toward the dark side. So does Romney's. They both have religion, but neither talk about it.
The press is so dumbed down, ignorant and drugged that they can't or are afraid to ask.
Thanks Ohio. BTW I love pecans. Used to live under a big pecan tree and had to fight off the squirrels. LOL
And for any who haven't been too stupified by religion.......

So now that info is slowly coming to light that the Spy agencies and military were not on their game or having infighting does it remind you of the Cuban Crisis and Vietnam. In the past few years we have learned that the CIA and other spy agencies were behind the assasinations and killings that set off those debacles. There is a very sickening documentary from 1974 showing US Military planes spraying pesticides and agent orange over villages in Vietnam and the thousands who died immediately from those poisons and afterwards the thousands of children born with deformities.

On the plus side, we won't have to wear 'magic underwear'. Cancelled my order first thing this morning...
Undercover ...
I order a pair but forgot to return them in time. They are in the back of the closet.
I guess it would make for a funny costume wearing an Obama mask and Majic Underwear.
