The Honorable Dennis Hastert

Former House Speaker

c/o Clerk of the House

US Congress

Capitol Hill, Washington, D.C.

Dear Speaker Hastert:

 

Peace.  It is SHOW-DOWN TIME in Washington!  Almighty God brings me to this
Capital City to work in tandem with Him in effecting His Grand Finale - once and
for all.

 

And, Sir, He requires me to respectfully, hereby, request and require your
immediate and urgent aid and assistance - together with your official staff as
they were at 5:54PM, Monday, November 14, 2005 - in the execution of several
Divine matters that pertain to America - including at Inverrary, Lauderhill,
Broward County, Florida.  This shall be for a season of no less than 120 days -
starting tomorrow, Monday, February 25, 2008, and with the use of the official
aircraft marked "29000".  Thus saith the Lord God.

 

My main mission to Washington with God is to commence, in earnest, the
REORDERING of the World Political System; the World Monetary System; and the
World Religious System - simultaneously.  This includes the acquisition of
the specified global broadcasting and the identified banking and financial
institutions - and the aviation and maritime and other companies - needed to
facilitate the reordering process with the required Divine Sovereignty
and independence.

 

Our first order of POLITICAL BUSINESS is to engage Pennsylvania Avenue, NW,
with the elimination of all of Capitol Hill by the Supernatural power of God -
and God's own vacuum- creation in a way that shall make HIS CHOSEN successorship
to the US Presidency and the renaming of The White House, etc, conveniently
expedient.

 

Aligned to these purely Divine actions shall be the appearance of Ebenezer
the man of God at the US Supreme Court to close its door for a period of seven
(7) days.  The man of God shall also appear at the Pentagon to lock the front
door for a period of 21 days - after which it shall be renamed TENTAGON - as
God shall end all wars.

 

Ebenezer the man of God may also appear at the Republican and the
Democratic Party Headquarters to raise the Rod of God and to call upon God in a
way that shall, INSTANTLY, make it known that I mean business when I say here
that all campaigns for US Presidential Elections must cease no later than
February 28, 2008.

 

All political parties (and workers/trade unions in America and Jamaica and
Britain) shall be ABOLISHED on a day that God and Ebenezer the man of God shall
work in tandem to abolish them.  And all present ELECTED officials and their
known opponents shall - at the same time - be banned and barred from seeking and
obtaining elective or appointed office for the next 20 years in America and
Jamaica and Britain.  Thus saith the Lord God.

 

Our first order of MONETARY BUSINESS is to Consecrate and globally launch
The Supreme Dominion Bank Of Jesus Christ from inside of the US Treasury
Building - through which the Federal Reserve System shall be reclaimed; and the
World Bank and the IMF and the IDB shall be terminated; and the Ambassador Leo
Wanta Trust matter shall be intercepted; Corporate Tithes shall be collect; the
IRS eliminated; and the Year of Jubilee celebrated - with all that it
implies.

 

And the first order of RELIGIOUS BUSINESS is to administer what God has in
mind regarding IMMIGRATION - and to Nationally Dedicate and Launch a Nationwide
project aimed at providing rehabilitative care - with the objective of social
restoration - for the HOMELESS on the County-wide basis.  It is called the
Pilgrims' Place Project. And the first two centers are to be established in
Washington, D.C., and in Broward County, Florida, where the National
Headquarters Building will be dedicated by the end of May this year.

 

Accordingly, Speaker Hastert, this afternoon, I did request a District Of
Columbia Police Officer to confirm to the US Secret Service that Ebenezer the
man of God is in Washington.  But I am certain that the Officer did not see the
legions of Angels that come with me.  So as I shall walk about Washington with
the WORD of God and the ROD of God in my hands - all Offiers and Agents and
other persons must remember to stand back no less than 9 feet - unless this man
of God beckons otherwise.

 

And, Speaker Hastert, no person is to attempt to have any official dealings
with me unless such person is in your company.  You, Sir, are the ONLY person
(other than those on my team) that Almighty God has chosen to engage with me
concerning the Governments - Federal, State, County, City, Township - in America
at this pivotal time. 

 

All communications to me must come through you.  And I am to communicate
God's requirements concerning America to you.  I trust that you will see this as
a great honor from God - as He affords you ANOTHER opportunity to do more and
better for America than in all of your years as a teacher or as a  wrestler or
as a politician.  

 

Indeed, I look forward to respectfully communicating to you what Almighty
God - The Creator of America and the world - requires of you. In just a little
while, the whole world shall witness why it imperative for you to treat your
arrival in Washington tomorrow as a matter priority and urgency. Besides, God's
business requires haste. Both the US Secret Service and the Lauderhill Police
will aid you in contacting me soonest.

 

Come March 1, 2008, God shall have me begin to prepare America and Jamaica
and Britain for the NEW YEAR which shall begin on September 1 - only six (6)
months away.  So it is to be understood that my presence in Washington should be
taken with utmost seriousness - because it indicates that God means business and
so do I. 

 

The usual arrogance and defiance must be marked by humble submission to the
will and commands of God for America and the world as He brings me here to begin
to reorder all aspects of world affairs - starting with the world politicial and
monetary and religious systems  To God be all the glory and praise!

 

Yours on behalf of the Royal Government of the Kingdom of God on
Earth,

 

 

His Right Excellency Ebenezer the man of God

I hate this.

Just found out Bill Buckley died.

I by no means agreed with Buckley on everything, but the good he did for conservatism is hard to overstate.

Whatever

Byron York on Mark Sanford & Tim Pawlenty on National Review Online

“John McCain is a conservative,” Pawlenty told me. “Now, there are some particular issues that have disappointed conservatives. He acknowledges that, and he has got some work to do to convince and reassure people that he is in fact a conservative…. But if you look at the totality of his record over the total time he’s been in Congress, it would seem to be unfair and incomplete to label him as something other than a conservative. And if the definition of conservative is going to be so narrowly construed as to only be those things to the right of John McCain, we’re going to have a fairly narrow market share.”

Going into the 2000 election we were repeatedly assured that George W Bush was a real conservative. That proved to be a pile of dung.  The truth is that both McCain and GW hold a variety of beliefs that have nothing to do with traditional ideologies, or for that matter any kind of organized political thought, and everything to do with personal values that drive what policies they will back. For GW, it was "compassion".  For McCain it appears to be "honor".

The idea that McCain is some kind of flaming liberal no different than Hillary or Obama is plainly nuts.  But the idea that he's a conservative is batty as well. McCain will choose policies based on what he believes is right and honorable and from what I can tell the only time he ever stops to consider whether those ideas are in any way related to conservatism is when he's trying to convince conservatives he can be trusted. Since he only cares about convincing us when he's running for president, I don't think he gives it any thought very often.

Heh

Freaky Liberal Blog Names - Right Wing News (Conservative News and Views)

And this doesn't even get into the profane and stupid content, it's just the names of the blogs. In fact, take a random vulgarity, add it to a racial or gender group, and throw the word "angry" out there in front of it if you're so inclined, and you've just probably named another liberal blog.

That is John Hawkins conclusion after perusing a few liberal blogrolls.  He does have a point: the left likes to paint conservatives as angry and obsessed with race, but who is it that's always talking about these things?

Irony alert

FOXNews.com - Lindsay Lohan Poses as Naked Marilyn Monroe - Celebrity Gossip | Entertainment News | Arts And Entertainment

Lohan described Monroe's suicide as "tragic" and said it, along with the Jan. 22 death of actor Heath Ledger from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs, "are both prime examples of what this industry can do to someone."

The actress, who has been in and out of rehab after two arrests last year on drunken driving and cocaine charges, said she didn't know why the industry wreaked such havoc on some stars, adding, "I sure as hell wouldn't let it happen to me."

No comment.

I'd agree with this

Pride and Prejudice our favourite book | NEWS.com.au

JANE Austen's timeless romance Pride and Prejudice has topped the list of the 101 best books ever written, according to Australian readers.

I first read this book in high school and thought it good. I re-read it while in college and it really struck a chord. After that, I started reading all of Jane Austen's novels several times a year. (Unfortunately, I no longer have the time for this.)  P&P remains the best.

Of course, since the Da Vinci Code came in 4th in this survey, I'm not sure whether I'm in good company or not.

Good post!

The Cynical Christian: Sin

When Christians say we are saved from sin, that doesn't just mean that a lot of stuff we've done is wiped from our permanent record. It means that we are transformed through Christ. When we understand what exactly we're being saved from, it makes the gift that much more amazing.

As they say, read the whole thing. As always, no analogy is perfect, but I quite like his arrow thingy.

I totally understand

Bill Quick is depressed. I'm right there with him.


If people can't understand that the whole point about discussing a new conservative party is to exclude people who aren't, well, conservative, then what is the point.

Well, he's got a point.

He Lives: Best Advice. Ever.

So here's what I need

The only good argument I've heard to bite the bullet and vote McCain this fall is judges. McCain says he'll nominate conservatives, but frankly I don't believe him. If I'm going to vote McCain, someone is going to have to convince me that he can be trusted on this issue.

I'm not saying that it would seal the deal for me, but I'm not pulling the McCain lever without it.

@$@#$@$#

Yeah, he was eighty, but still:

Congressman Tom Lantos, RIP

McCain a 'True Conservative,' Bush Says

WASHINGTON (AP) - John McCain is a "true conservative," President Bush says, although the likely Republican presidential nominee may have to work harder to convince other conservatives that he is one of their own.

McCain "is very strong on national defense," Bush said in an interview taped for airing on "Fox News Sunday." "He is tough fiscally. He believes the tax cuts ought to be permanent. He is pro-life. His principles are sound and solid as far as I'm concerned."

The man who has done more to marginalize conservatism as a movement within the Republican party as anyone in my lifetime says McCain is a "true conservative". I feel better already.

Not quite right

IMAO: The Future of the Republicans

I guess the Republicans are like a self-destructive alcoholic, and the Democrats are enablers by sucking so badly that the Republicans don't have to strive to be any better. Now, a party that is an abusive drunk would actually be kinda cool if it took out all its inebriated rage on foreign countries, but the Republican Party is more of a quiet drunk, sitting in the corner mumbling while wasting all its money on booze.

Unfortunately, their more like the quiet drunk in the corner wasting all my money on booze.

Pulling the lever (well, completing the little arrow thingy)

I checked the polls last night and it appears Romney has no chance in Oklahoma, although Huckabee is running close to McCain. I just can't bring myself to vote for Huckabee. If Romney had been close, I'd have gone ahead and voted for him. However, he wasn't.

I decided to show the party exactly what I thought of the choices they gave me; I voted for Thompson anyway.

Apparently Bob Dole's disastrous 1996 presidential bid didn't do enough damage

Not happy that Rush Limbaugh has the audacity to point out the many elements of McCain's record that are very unconservative, Bob Dole released a letter urging Rush to back off.

Dole wrote that as the former Senate Republican leader, he could vouch for the fact that McCain supported the party on all “critical votes.”

In a bill of particulars numbered 1 through 8, Dole wrote that McCain has a “Consistent pro-life record,” was a “Strong advocate for strict constructionist judges,” “Supported voluntary school prayer,” supported a balanced-budget amendment, was a strong advocate for cutting spending, consistently defended Second Amendment (gun-owner) rights, “opposed ‘Hillary Care,’ ” and was “Probably the Senate's strongest advocate for strong national defense.”

The charge against McCain isn't that he's not a Republican (although many question that as well), it's that he's not conservative. This sleight of hand allows him to ignore campaign finance "reform" as a "critical vote".  Then there's the matter of things that didn't to to a vote, like McAmnesty.

Dole also insists that McCain is committed to strict constructionist judges. Frankly, I don't believe that. McCain is a religious zealot on CFR and basically says that anyone who opposes this assault on political speech is corrupt. Strict constructionist judges are far more likely to toss out this travesty and I don't believe he'll that risk.

Well, I've got permission

Today I was driving my 8 year old to the doctor when Rodney Atkins' "Cleaning this gun" came on. If you're not familiar with the song, click on through. I'll wait.

Near the end of the song, this took place.

Her: Daddy,when I turn 15 are you going to buy a gun?

Me: I think I should buy one now.

Her: Mommy has a gun.

Me: No she doesn't.

Her: Yes she does.

Me: No, she borrowed that from Auntie. She gave it back.

Her: Oh. Well, I guess you could just kick him in the nuts.

Yeah, we nearly wrecked. When I told my wife, she lost the ability to breathe. We've also had to have quite a conversation.

Update: I think I'll need some steel toed boots.

He's not the only one

Omar at ITM wants to know why the media is virtually ignoring reports that Libya is now sponsoring terrorists in Iraq.

Hey, didn't we take them off the list of terrorists sponsoring states a few years ago? Oops.

Crackers?

Thought Of The Day: On Conservatism & 2008 - Right Wing News (Conservative News and Views)

The whole idea that conservatives can torpedo the Republican nominee in 2008 and have that be good for conservatism is crackers.

I wouldn't say that the Democrats winning in 2008 is good for conservatism. However, I'm not at all convinced it's worse than a McCain presidency.
