“Religious Liberty/Freedom (coded Segregation Jim Crow/Gays-No)” laws pass in Southern States




Dog Whistle Bills in the inbred South to get out the local vote for the local Kim Davis County level jobs and of course the meal ticket seats in state(H8) Legislatures in the upcoming Trump 2016 GOP Tsunami are in the works.

One passed in North Carolina. Whatever happened to North Carolina? A billionaire named Pope buying up the state legislature for ten cents on the dollar, who has successfully spread his hate dope for a generation to clean up once the old bastard dies and goes to hell.

Now one bill HB757 (sounds like a toxic WMD) in Georgia from the GOP legislature waiting for the Governor’s signature. Bills Labeled as anti-gay but just the standard coded H8 stuff – “Religious Liberty/Freedom (coded Segregation Jim Crow/Gays-No)” laws to protect some "Christian" bakery in rural America, the only bakery in one horse towns, from making wedding cakes for the Blacks or the current easy to H8 flavor of the month target - ‘da Gays - in bible beating A-merica.  

Beat your bishops Religious Libery/Freedom - white guys club.


They can buy a dozen guns and hide in fear of it whatever it is – the women, the blacks, the gays, the future but they can’t come with something better than religion to put a sweet grape jelly covering onto their sticky peanut buttered up hate.

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman."- Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley - Sound familiar?




Thank God the Republicans are the one true decent Family Values Party that can teach our children how to grow up and get free sex from state employees.



"You know what, when I stand behind you and I put my arms around you, and I put my hands on your breasts, and I put my hands on you [indaudible] and pull you real close,” the governor could be heard saying on the audio. “I love that, too.”
“You kiss me. I love that,” he said at another point in the recording. “You know I do love that.”
Dianne Bentley, the governor’s wife of 50 years, filed suddenly for divorce last year saying the marriage had suffered an irreparable breakdown. She did not allege infidelity in the divorce filing.

God Bless Texas For Sending Abortion Industry Business to New Mexico




The small dick party of Dick Perry and Donald Trump has sent some of its Abortion business next door to New Mexico.

Capitalism has a way of evening out the unfairness of anti-female male feel good jerk off Christian dogma in a dickhole state like Texas.

Want to send money out of state Texas?  Abortion Tech is the start of the male brain drain on the lone star small dick minded state I predict.


Of New Mexico’s five abortion clinics, only Albuquerque’s Southwest Women’s Options offers abortions up to 28 weeks and on a case-by-case basis after that if fetal anomalies are discovered or a mother’s health is in jeopardy, according to its website.

A Texas-based abortion clinic opened in Las Cruces in 2014 after Texas lawmakers enacted a law that has resulted in the closure of at least half of the state’s 41 abortion clinics.


That law, which requires that abortion clinics meet higher surgical center standards and requires providers to be affiliated with nearby hospitals, is on appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Dog Whistlers Franklin Graham and Gov. McCrory Set to Deal with Trump 2016 Trainwreck to Protect Congress and State House Seats by speading usual GOP Evangelical Hate

Greasy inbred North Carolina Hillbilly Types HATE preacher Franklin Graham and Gov. Pat.”I used to workd for the ‘Lectric Company” McCrory are setting off the dog whistles to get the imbred idiots of the Osarks to vote agin transgengers and such meaning the ‘Da Gays in an effort to get out the local vote for locals offices now that the Trump bandwagon and or trainwreck to be of the GOP is set to happen in November.

Because as we all now know that (American Evangelicalism = the GOP Party = Hate =Segregation).  Amen Mudder Fockers!


…GOP Governor Pat McCrory wants state lawmakers to act quickly to repeal, revoke, or rescind the City Of Charlotte’s recently-passed law that will protect LGBT people. The ordinance would also allow transgender citizens the right to use the public rest room that most closely conforms to their gender identity.

The North Carolina governor has insisted even before the legislation passed that he would find a way to invalidate it, and has asked state lawmakers to do just that.

The law goes into effect April 1, and the state legislature’s short session does not begin until April 25. GOP lawmakers are weighing an early special session just to act on Charlotte’s nondiscrimination ordinance, but Gov. McCrory would like them to wait, as that would cost taxpayers $42,000 per day.


But McCrory will be satisfied either way.

GOP Evangelicals (an Oxymoron) Talking Code For Religious Freedom and other Hot Button Culture War Topics “We are only Talking Code for Segregation”





The modern religious right formed, practically overnight, as a rapid response to the Supreme Court's landmark ruling in Roe v. Wade. Or, at least, that's how the story goes. The reality, Randall Balmer, a Dartmouth professor writing for Politico Magazine, says, is actually a little less savory to 21st century Americans: The religious right, who liked to call themselves the "moral majority" at the time, actually organized around fighting to protect Christian schools from being desegregated. It wasn't Roe v. Wade that woke the sleeping dragon of the evangelical vote. It was Green v. Kennedy, a 1970 decision stripping tax-exempt status from "segregation academies"—private Christian schools that were set up in response to Brown v. Board of Education, where the practice of barring black students continued.

Loren Eiseley - Making a Difference – Quote – Intelligent Design


The following quote by author Loren Eiseley I ran on this blog on Wednesday June 6, 2012, I ran into it again and read it early this morning.

And as I finished reading it, I thought of the dogmatic idea of Intelligent Design about how IT all supposedly follows some plan.

That for Loren Eiseley to save a few starfish was against that magnificent master plan? Shame on you Loren. How dare you save life on a micro level when on a macro cosmic Wharton Spreadsheet level, it has already been written off as part of a prescribed “divine” plan.

Or people of faith will say that God gave man dominion over the creatures of the earth and Loren and his friend are merely exercising free will under the animal management clause of that so-called Intelligent Design Contract?


Loren Eiseley - Making a Difference - Quote

“While wandering a deserted beach at dawn, stagnant in my work, I saw a man in the distance bending and throwing as he walked the endless stretch toward me. As he came near, I could see that he was throwing starfish, abandoned on the sand by the tide, back into the sea. When he was close enough I asked him why he was working so hard at this strange task. He said that the sun would dry the starfish and they would die. I said to him that I thought he was foolish. there were thousands of starfish on miles and miles of beach. One man alone could never make a difference. He smiled as he picked up the next starfish. Hurling it far into the sea he said, "It makes a difference for this one." I abandoned my writing and spent the morning throwing starfish.”

Donald Trump – the Current Flavor of the Month Anti-Christ?



Donald Trump – the Current Flavor of the Month Anti-Christ?

When Senator Lindsey Graham, dear that he is, suggests getting behind Canadian Rafael "Ted" Cruz to stop this new Anti-Christ Donald Dumbf - his family's real name, then all hell is breaking loose on the landscape. Whatever.

Clergy / Child Abuse Cottage Industry in Johnstown Altoona RC Diocese





ALTOONA, Pa. — Two Catholic bishops who led a small Pennsylvania diocese helped cover up the sexual abuse of hundreds of children by more than 50 priests and other religious leaders over a 40-year period, according to a grand jury report that portrays the church as holding such sway over law enforcement that it helped select a police chief.
The 147-page report issued Tuesday on sexual abuse in the Altoona-Johnstown Diocese, home to nearly 100,000 Roman Catholics, was based partly on evidence from a secret diocesan archive opened through a search warrant over the summer.
In announcing the findings, Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane said the diocese's two previous bishops "placed their desire to avoid public scandal over the well-being of children."
No criminal charges are being filed in the case because some abusers have died, the statute of limitations has expired, or victims are too traumatized to testify, she said.
Of the victims, Kane said: "Their souls were killed as children. They weren't out playing baseball; they were trying to avoid priests."
"The diocese will not apologize or take responsibility for its dark history," the report said.


In a practice seen in other dioceses, the bishop created a "payout chart" to help guide how much victims would receive from the church, the report said. Victims fondled over their clothes were to be paid $10,000 to $25,000; fondled under their clothes or subjected to masturbation, $15,000 to $40,000; subjected to forced oral sex, $25,000 to $75,000; subjected to forced sodomy or intercourse, $50,000 to $175,000.

The Donald’s Education Ponzi Scam Comes Home to Roost



The Donald’s Education Ponzi Scam Comes Home to Roost
J.FifeSymington III was a crook who made a pile of money off of bank loans from his own bank to build plazas and empty office buildings in downtown Phoenix in the Savings and Loan scam in the late Eighties. The best way to stay out of prison was to run for Governor and keep the federal prosecutors at bay with Arizona Taxpayers dollars. Hillary Clinton ran for the Senate because of all her and her husband’s enemies wanting to subpoena them after Bill left office. Retiring Senator Monahan of NY urged her to run for his Senate seat, told her that if she and or her husband got caught on any legal matters, she could demand to be tried in the Senate by her peers which rarely happens. She stayed in Senate for eight years, one year longer than the standard seven years statute of limitations laws regarding civil law BTW. George W. Bush and his hand in the promotion and non-inspection/regulation of the ENRON SCAM made it necessary for him to run for higher office to avoid prison as co-conspirator as early as his years as Texas Governor - Ken Lay and Enron two monsters that W could never say no to. 
Now Donald
Trump ahead of his Trump University multi-million dollar Ponzi Scam blowing up in the California and NYS courts and with it negative press wants, hoping for the FBI to protect the future GOP Prez of the United States = is seeking higher office to protect his thieving ass from JAIL. Geez. America, ain’t it a great place. #DonaldTrump #TrumpUniversity
