Globalists in the Vatican often lecture U.S. policymakers why it is America's moral obligation to accept unbridled immigration. Let's see how these European elitists like it when their own institutions are overrun by these Third World revolutionary types and told they must alter their cultures to accomodate these interlopers.

Buchanan Attacked By Tolerance Monger

Ditzy Women Prefer Scumbags

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Scott Peterson was hardly in the Big House for an hour before he received his first marriage proposal --- and no, it was not from his cellmate. Rather, it came from prison groupies on the outside romantically attracted to the dregs of humanity.

So basically, the moral of the story is that nice guys really do finish last and all the whining about the need for men to be more sensitive is a crock. Seems what many women want deep down is to be treated like a piece of trash.

Perhaps the incarcerated would no longer be quite so attractive if we established the social expectation that women gravitating to these kinds of men get what they deserve in terms of abuse and maltreatment since at this point in the criminal justice process it's not like they do not know what these animals are capable of.

All joking aside, these women are free to throw their lives away if the want; but worthy of more concentrated policy reflection are those prisons that allow inmates to wed and those that allow conjugal visits.

Why should these convicts be allowed to enjoy the privileges of human companionship and family life? Their victims no longer can.

And speaking of family life, what happens when one of these women end up in the family way? Since the fathers are unable to provide for their progeny, does this mean the offspring will end up on the public dole just like dear daddy?

Thus, those who of us who can barely afford to get married and have children end up paying for those refusing to pull their own weight and don't deserve to have a wife and family. And if you are Christian you have to put up with Chuck Colson haranguing you why it's somehow your fault these children are without proper fatherly guidance.

Prison is not suppose to be enjoyable. If those guilty of the most heinous deeds wanted to enjoy romance and family, they should have considered that before shooting or hacking someone to death.

A Review Of Some Serious, Popular False Doctrines Answered From The Scriptures By John R. Rice

II Peter 2:1 warns of false teachers introducing destructive heresies. Like an intelligence agency, the Church must gather information on its opponents in order to protect its members and to devise strategies on how to extricate those held hostage to these competing systems. Some Serious, Popular False Doctrines Answered From The Scriptures By John R. Rice serves as an excellent briefing.

Garnished from Dr. Rice’s decades of ministry, False Doctrines is an introduction to many of the heresies and aberrant beliefs plaguing the modern religious scene ranging from the esoteric such as spiritualists and fortunetellers, to the obscure such as Anglo-Israelism, to the downright socially dangerous such as Socialism/Communism. In an era characterized by an overemphasis on tolerance, some Evangelicals might object to Rice’s stance criticizing Catholicism, Seventh Day Adventism, and the Church of Christ.

Yet despite Rice’s confrontational brand of militant Fundamentalism, this work is written in a spirit of kindness, love, and understanding as portions of the book are responses to actual letters received by Dr. Rice from adherents of the various doctrines under consideration.

False Doctrines also provides insight into the Fundamentalist position on issues debated within the broader Evangelical community such as Calvinistic predestination and the legitimacy of tongues.

Rice served as founder and editor of the Sword of The Lord, which is still published to this day as a primary source of news and views within the Fundamentalist movement, until his passing in 1980. Some Serious, Popular False Doctrines Answered From The Scriptures remains an excellent guidebook through which to survey the vibrant American religious landscape from a conservative Christian perspective.

Bush Abets Hispanic Takeover Of The United States

School Shooter Also A Radical Environmentalist

While you will incessantly hear that the shooter at the Indian reservation in Minnesota frequented a Neo-Nazi website and even went so far as to oppose interracial dating (an aspect of his belief system irrelevant to this horrible deed), apart from the CNSNews.com story bet you won't hear much of this group's ties to radical environmentalism.

Will be interesting to see if this will be enough to resuscitate his reputation in the eyes of liberals.

Interestingly, its not often pointed out that apart from its racist propensities, Nazism was also characterized by deep ecological underpinnings as well with one of its key slogans being “Blood & Soil” denoting the alleged superiority of the German people and their almost mystical connection to the Fatherland.

Is Terri's Ball & Chain A Wife Beater?

Like Father, Like Son: Will The President Embrace His Heritage As A Wimp?

It is assumed that a president in his second term has less to lose since he is not eligible for reelection and as such possesses a greater opportunity to assert himself in terms of policy than many consider prudent for a Commander-And-Chief in the first term. In a time of war, one would assume this would mean the President would come down harder upon the enemies of the nation vowing to wipe the United States from the face of the earth.

Regardless of one’s opinion of President Bush, one has to admit at certain moments in the war on terror he has spoken with refreshing bluntness uncharacteristic of a politician holding public office. However, as the President prepared to commence upon his second term he backpedaled and seemed to say some things that could be construed as embracing the Kerryite doctrine of waging a “more sensitive war”.

According to President Bush in his pre-inaugural Barbara Walters interview, he regretted having said in reference to the Iraqi insurgents “to bring it on” and that he wanted Osama Bin Ladin “Dead or alive”. While his feelings regarding the Iraqi insurgents are understandable in light of the tragic deaths of American servicemen serving as a testament that these savages were not as easy to neutralize as originally assessed, why in the world should anyone feel bad about wanting Osama Bin Ladin brought in dead or alive?

Perhaps we need to be reminded what this homicidal fanatic is accused of doing. Encase everyone has forgotten, Bin Ladin is responsible for killing over 3000 Americans.

Why in the name of Hades should we care if Bin Ladin and his groupies get their feelings hurt? From the impression given by the President, he might be more afraid of his old lady than international terrorism.

Thus the Commander-And-Chief feared as a cowboy in the Bolshevist press is actually henpecked and beholden to the Mrs. in a manner different only in degree and not necessarily in kind to that of the Oval Office’s previous occupant. For as with the previous administration, this one also is tempted to pursue a foreign policy characterized by the female characteristics of timidity and weak-mindedness.

After receiving a verbal smack down from Laura, the spanked President said with his head down, “So I have to be cautious about...conveying thoughts in a way maybe that doesn’t send wrong impressions about our country.” And what “improved” image does this apology convey: that in America the President’s wife is the spouse wearing the pants in the First Family?

That will certainly go a long way in striking fear in the hearts of our enemies. The only thing it will do is serve as evidence that, like the sisssified nations of Europe, the United States is decayed and ripe for conquest.

Apparently, in apologizing the President would rather America be perceived on par with France or Spain rather than as a cowboy. But whom would you rather call on in a crisis: John Wayne or Peppi La Phew?

When some scumbag breaks into your home, are you going to prattle on about the brotherhood of man and the equitable distribution of resources or are you going to do whatever it takes to get the brigand --- dead or alive --- off your property and away from your loved ones? The decision usually isn’t difficult for real men; however, it is in all likelihood, more ponderous for European ones or those seeking their approval.

Equally naive is the President’s belief that tsunami relief will improve the image of the U.S. abroad, especially among Islamic nations. For while President Bush is to be commended for realizing the threat posed by world terrorism, he fails to grasp Islam’s inherent hatred of Judeo-Christian values and civilization as well as hostility to U.S. strategic interests.

In an expression of heartwarming gratitude, the Indonesian government intimated they wanted relief forces out of the country and went so far as to forbid the Marines from carrying firearms in their backwards nation swarming with terrorists and assorted malcontents. But no guns, no Marines.

The Indonesians are the ones needing the aide. It makes no difference to America what happens to such an insignificant country if that’s going to be that nation’s attitude.

Indonesia needs America a lot more than America needs Indonesia. They ought to be grateful for every penny we send them and should welcome with open arms military assistance as first rate and magnanimous as ours.

As a result of a desire for approval, the perceived indecisiveness of the elder Bush led him to be derided as a wimp. We can only hope the current President Bush’s desire for acceptance does not compromise the need to stand up for American liberty’s in this precarious age.

Hold Judge In Schiavo Case In Contempt Of Congress

Maybe those appearing before this renegade magistrate should thumb their noses at his rulings.

Where are all the liberals that insist Judge Moore must obey the rulings of higher governing bodies whether he agrees with them or not? Guess they had to get rid of "Thou shalt not kill" so they could get by with what they are doing now.

One of the sad truths of this life is that most of us leave it under less than wonderful circumstances. One can only hope that those seeking to speed up the departure of Terri Schiavo from this world will be so gripped with guilt in the time of their own physical delcine that they are constantly looking over their shoulders in fear of who might be lurking in the shadows to inflict the same social evils upon them they now seek to unleash upon us all.

John Walsh Takes On Mexican Kidnapping Rings

This was a very informative story about an issue you don't hear much about in the mainstream press.

According to the report, Mexican drug cartels --- some composed of former military personnel or in league with sympathetic police --- are kidnapping individuals they suspect possessing access to financial resources.

Thus far from the report, it seems they have primarily struck south of the border, but are extending operations into the United States. But as Mexican cultural influence continues to spread into the United States this could very well become a threat to all Americans. For if these desparados will do this to American citizens of a similar Hispanic background as their own, just think what horrors they would be willing to inflict upon Americans of Caucasian extraction.

In this era of sweeping the state of things to the south under the rug, John Walsh is to be commended for brining this issue to the attention of the mainstream media.

Simpsons Episode On Gay Marriage Not As A Flaming An Outrage As It Could Have Been

Regardless of one’s opinion of “The Simpsons”, one has to admit the show has no problem tackling controversial material most would rather sweep under the rug. And even though it would have been better had producers left the issue of gay marriage alone, the show was able to inject a degree of its classic subversive wit into what could have been an approach characterized by nothing but a doctrinaire political correctness.

When most heard sodomite matrimony was coming to the quintessential American town of Springfield, most assumed the abomination would be heralded with typical Hollywood applause and accolades. And though I would be uncomfortable with letting younger children view the episode, it was not without humorous aspects exposing the hypocrisy inherent to this social outrage.

For gay nuptials were not ultimately sanctioned in this fictional municipality out of a warped interpretation of love or equity but rather in an attempt to bring back lost tourist dollars after Bart and Milhaus create a bad impression of the town in the mind of a roving travel correspondent. Homer gets into the money making racket by getting ordained and opening a wedding chapel in his garage.

“The Simpsons” is often characterized by a degree of philosophical reflection beneath all of its silliness uncommon to television sitcoms. This episode also sparked additional thought by touching on the point that, if same sex marriage is allowed, on what grounds do we continue to forbid other reprehensible couplings? This point was comically made when brother and sister hillbillies wanted to get married and Homer fantasized about marrying himself (“Homersexual” marriage, eh) with a house full of little Homers.

The most penetrating point of the show centered around the ambivalence exhibited by Marge Simpson. Throughout the early part of the episode, Marge is an enthusiastic supporter of this social perversion.

However, overthrowing the established moral order loses a bit of its appeal when she learns one of her own sisters is a lesbian. Reminds one of the adage that a liberal is a conservative that has not been mugged yet, her revulsion at the prospects of her sister falling into this lifestyle serving as a testament to the disgust many experience to the practice despite their best efforts at being good little radicals and harping the party line.

Though most would be reluctant to admit it, the world depicted on “The Simpsons” is probably one of the most realistic reflections of the American moral climate on television today. If the episode meant to proclaim the joys and beauty of gay marriage to the nation is wracked by as much reluctance to the practice as was able to wiggle its way into the plot, it means --- though tottering on the edge of the abyss --- there is still a sliver of hope provided Americans of principle don’t cower before these boisterous libertines.

Abelard & Heloise Affair Continues To Ignite Passions 900 Years Later

Government To Crackdown On Bloggers

Often evidence presented of Iran's abysmal human rights record is that nation's treatment of the cybercritics blogging away under that oppressive regime. However, with regulations being considered by the Federal Election Commission, there will soon be very little in principle distinguishing the Internet speech policies of the United States and one of the nations purported to be one of our most intractable enemies.

According to an interpretation of one ruling, bloggers could be charged with violating provisions of the campaign finance reform law for as little as linking to the website of a candidate they happen to favor.

I guess the best thing to do to keep what little speech rights we have remaining alive is to add pictures of dancing girls to our websites since the judiciary is reluctant to curtail salacious material (unlike political speech) and to assume anyone running for public office is by definition a scumbag and not worthy of a scintilla of support either virtual or actual.

Those sufficiently brainwashed by their overlords in the media/governmental complex might argue that the United States does not treat its dissidents in the same manner as an outlaw nation such as Iran. But in the light of overwhelming fines and court costs that will no doubt ruin the critics of the state, execution might actually be the more merciful alternative.

Liberal Maryland Suburb A Hub Of Human Trafficing

No wonder bigshots are for unrestricted immigration.

The suburbs of Montgomery County, Maryland have a reputation as a bastion of liberalism and increasingly as a region in which English is a dieing language as immigrants flood into the Washington Metropolitan Area.

While these self-appointed scions of progressivism get up there and hem and haw about the wonders of multiculturalism and diversity, what they really want is an ample supply of pliant slave labor.

According to the Sentinel.com, a number of migrants recently testified before the county council how their employers there forced them to engage in what amounts to a form of involuntary servitude by withholding pay and employing various forms of abuse in an attempt to keep them in line. Many of the violators are diplomats with immunity.

So remember when Democrats and leftwing Republicans lecture you on your racist attitude for not wanting your country overrun by alien cultures, these elitists won't even give these workers the pittance wages promised to their employees and the minimal dignity even migrants are owed as fellow human beings.

It has been said that a rising tide lifts all boats. Likewise, those shooting holes in the ship of state will cause us all to drown, especially when those pretending to be captains are the only ones with access to the lifeboats.

Current immigration practices have little whatsoever with elevating the status of the so-called downtrodden, but are rather about dragging the rest of us down to that abysmal level.

Elitist Conservative Laments The Rise Of The Blogosphere

Does Kathleen Parker really fear the blogosphere's impact on freedom of speech or its tendency to cut into the turf of payed professional media.

From this column, one gets the elitist impression that only traditional journalists and columnists are wise enough to make the distinctions of what is and is not news worthy.

State University Needs Lesson In Priorities

In the propaganda put out by governments at all levels, considerable emphasis is often placed on the importance of education and the respect those in public office profess to have for their fellow civil servants pursuing the subdued honors of educating the next generation rather than the more obvious glories of elected position.

In the state of Maryland, such lofty sentiments about aiding in the dispersion of knowledge are little more than beguiling words when it comes to putting the state’s money where the mouths of the politicians are.

At the University of Maryland, those facilitating the orderly transfer of knowledge are so valued that the servants of the people are required to render tribute for the privilege of arranging the storage necessary to drive their own vehicles to work. Campus employees much pay at least $314 a year for a parking permit.

However, it seems even this is not enough as permit prices are going to increase to $345 for employees making under $50,000 and $517 a year for those making over $50,000. According to the February 3, 2005 edition of the Diamondback, the increase will in part go to finance increases in employee insurance benefits and overall utility bills.

But while university and state administrators sing the blues of hard times, from very same edition of the paper detailing the parking crisis is a story that causes the reader unfamiliar with the twisted logic of higher education to question whether resources there are being allocated in the manner most expeditious to facilitating the university’s core mission and its responsibilities to those charged with carrying out these tasks. For while the faculty and staff are being compelled to aide in shouldering a $80,000 Department of Transportation Services budget, things aren’t apparently that tight as the Health Center had no problem dispensing 200,000 free condoms --- some of which were flavored --- provided by the Maryland State AIDS Administration.

As will be expected, the kneejerk enthusiasts of decadence will snap, “It’s nobodies business at a university who uses condoms.” And in a sense they are correct.

If college students want to be treated as adults, shouldn’t they be required to procure their own prophylactics out of their own disposable incomes?

Those continuing to wallow in their own debauchery will no doubt continue to insist upon the need for privacy. What better reason then to eliminate campus condom distribution programs?

For where will privacy be better protected: at the campus health center where heaven only knows whom you might bump into from one of your classes or at a store or supermarket removed from the prying eyes of college gossips where the only faces recognized are those of the presidents whose visages demarcate the denominations of currency?

Those still affectionate towards the condom racket will no doubt whine, “But students couldn’t otherwise afford condoms.” If that’s the case, should they really be carrying on in such a manner as to need them?

One of the purposes of a college education is to make one a civilized individual, one aspect of which is realizing one cannot always satisfy one’s desires at the moment one would necessarily like to.

One does not take on the responsibilities of a mature relationship unless one can afford to do so. The mature individual does not expect the government to pick up the tab for their assorted pleasures.

In the financially trying times in which we live, policy makers must carefully determine the educational priorities of the jurisdictions over which they govern. Will they use what resources are available to properly compensate those charged with the responsibility of turning the lofty ideals of education into a concrete reality or will they squander them fostering salacious pursuits that degrade both the individual as well as the broader society.

The Sweet Taste Of Winter Vindication

Few things can compare with being labeled a lunatic only to have one’s opinions and observations later confirmed as insightful commonsense. Recently I got to experience this brand of joy in reference to two different issues.

This past holiday season, news consumers could hardly turn on the television or surf the Internet without coming across stories about the escalating campaign to undermine Christmas in the conflict having the ultimate goal of abolishing Christianity as the foundation of American society. To many, this culture war crescendo comes as a surprise; I predicted it as far back as 1994 and have written at least one column regarding the controversies surrounding Christmas every year since then.

I feel vindicated even more, however, on the second issue. In spring of 2004, I wrote a couple of columns on the impropriety of applauding unwed American Idol contestant Fantasia Barrino as a role model worthy of emulation by the youth of the nation.

From the response to the columns, you would have thought I suggested everyone ought to toss their grandmothers into oncoming traffic. After getting over one thousand hits at one website, in an act of unparallelled gratitude I was shortly thereafter banished from its roster of columnists.

If authors and analysts are going to be that concerned about tickling the ears of readers, why not just go ahead and become a liberal? Though many so-called “Conservatives” refused to address the issue, Larry Elder is to be commended for eventually tackling the matter head on.

In a column titled “Children Having Children”, Elder lets Fantasia really have it for not only having an out of wedlock child but for glamorizing it in her ditty “Baby Momma” and in mooching off the public dole just because she couldn’t keep her baser impulses in check. Those wallowing in hedonism and wanton impropriety whine it’s nobody’s business that she had a child outside marriage.

Really? That might be true if Fantasia, her baby, and the sleazebag fathering her child were the only ones involved in this story; but, as Elder details in the column, Fantasia had her own welfare apartment and sat on her rear-end all day platting her rugrats hair and watching TV.

Since she was picking the pockets of taxpayers to finance her lifestyle at that time, as citizens we have the right to say whatever we want since we were the ones putting the roof over the heads of her and her child and food in their bellies.

Many theologically confused Christians hoodwinked into embracing a weak-willed sissy version of Jesus that would not demand anything from anybody invoke the usual cliches of judge not lest ye be judged, the need to forgive, yada yada yada. Yet to receive forgiveness and absolution, doesn’t one have to be sorry? But with lyrics calling unwed motherhood a “badge of honor” it would seem Fantasia really isn’t sorry about anything.

If those on welfare don’t like what the gainfully employed have to say about them, they are perfectly free to forego these lavish handouts. After all, a musician such as Fantasia should understand that he who pays the piper calls the tune.

New Robotech Series Planned

Fans of one of the greatest animated series of all times have waited nearly two decades for a continuation of the Robotech saga. However, their wait might soon be over if Harmony Gold finally keeps their word and produces a sequel to the epic.

From what I have been able to gather from the Internet, the series picks up at the end of the Third Robotech War following the defeat of the Invid when Scott Benard heads out into space in search of the missing Admiral Rick Hunter. The series will tie the three Robotech casts together by including characters from each of the conflicts such as Louis Nichols (the guy with the shades that drove one of the hovertanks).

I wouldn't get my hopes up too high as rumors of Robotech's return have always been exagerated as nothing much came of the proposed Sentinels series that would have gone more into the background interrelating the Zentradi, the Robotech Masters, and the Invid.

Student Seeks To End Summertime Mental Enslavement

While the case of a student suing his school on the grounds that summer homework ruined his vacation might not be the best use of the nation's overly burdened court system, the lad does have a bit of a point.

On what grounds, exactly, do schools have the right to compel students to complete assignments during those times of the year when students are not under the school's legal authority?

The school claims these requirements are not an undue imposition since they only apply to honors courses in which the plaintiff volunteered to participate.

While that might apply to this particular Wisconsin jurisdiction in question, it does not settle the matter on a broader philosophical level as some schools such as those in Prince William County, Virginia I wrote about way back in the mid 90’s do not make it an honor's only requirement but rather mandate that all students do book reports and such over the summer.

In the same spirit as that motivating Bill Clinton when he said he opposed tax cuts on the grounds Americans would not know how to spend their own money properly, educrats claim students not given assignments to do over the break would otherwise allow their brains to whither. What of it?

Since the brains belong to the students and under the custodianship of their parents, aren’t they free to do with them as they see fit when school is not in session? Besides, other than basic reading, who uses most of what they learned in school anyway?

Maybe if schools did not devote so many resources to intellectually dubious pursuits such as diversity appreciation, environmental awareness, and indoctrination in evolution, schools would have more than enough time to teach those essentials education propagandists insist there isn’t enough hours in the day (and hence the year) to teach.

For students still ensnared for whatever reasons in the clutches of the public education leviathan, these institutions for whatever reason, these institutions serve as centers of indoctrination in the ideology of total state control. For what other lesson do students learn from summertime homework than that, even when not on duty, their lives belong to those running the New World Order?

Enterprise Cancelled

Seems now that this show is finally worth watching, it's having its warp drive yanked out from under it.

The show, I think, has had it's best season thus far as the "mini-arcs" combined the best aspects of stand-alone episodes and last year's on-going Xindi storyline.

Frankly, some of this year's episodes have presented some of the best Trek stories in the series, especially the conclusion of the Temporal War involving time traveling aliens aiding the Nazis, the trilogy examining Vulcan politics and spirituality, and the return of Brent Spiner as a mad geneticist in part responsible for the infamous Eugenics Wars.

But with Sci-Fi channel's Friday night lineup of "Stargate: SG1", "Stargate: Atlantis", and "Battlestar Galactica", I guess dinky little Enterprise couldn't keep up. Guess UPN needed more smutty comedies appealling to humanity's baser nature rather than something that stimulated thoughtful imagination.

Unless my calculations are incorrect, the upcoming 2005/2006 season will be the first without some kind of Star Trek on the air in 18 years.

Government Releases List Of So-Called "Real Colleges"

The government has released a database of schools accredited in a manner approved by the Department of Education.

The purpose of the database is to serve as a reference to protect employers from hiring those whose credentials come from so-called diploma mills. Often these schools require little more than a check to acquire a degree.

However, the database may also stifle the innovations in distance education that have arisen over the past few years since it equates "unaccredited" with "underhanded". Already the Washington DC Fox affiliate, WTTG Channel 5, is calling it a "List Of Real Colleges and Universities", making no distinction between the unaccredited schools that require a significant amount of work and those that merely accept your check and will even pad your grades based on what one is willing to pay.

Education bureaucrats and even a few misguided Congressional Representatives argue such oversight is necessary to protect the American people from those wielding faulty degrees. You know, the usual rubbish about Homeland Security and all.

But apart from certain professions such as medicine, does it really matter where someone has acquired their knowledge? Why should someone whose been to Harvard automatically be considered more intelligent than someone who has gained as much wisdom and experience (if not more and probably of better quality not intellectually contaminated by the radicalism of subversive academics)through a life of independent study and career experience in fields say such as business, government, or journalism? Who is actually more deserving of the appellation of "doctor"?

Is education, after all, a measure of the knowledge one has acquired or how many hours one has wasted under the yolk of windbags that couldn't find employment doing anything else?

Some might not have much of a problem with the government decreeing which schools are or are not legitimate. But in this day when national security and the increasing complexity of life are constantly invoked to justify increasing levels of intrusion into our lives, what's to prevent a similar approach being taken in determining which churches are deemed acceptable in terms of promulgating governmentally sanctioned theology?

World's Most Famous Drunk Gets Own Dinky TV Show

Nearly 85% Of Blacks On Food Stamps

This story first caught my eye in the Jan 2005 issue of the Futurist.

It is in reference to a Cornell University study so one can hardly blame it on right-wing Republican propaganda.

And speaking of Republicans, over the past several days, a number of Republicans (including President Bush) have stirred up a fuss that Blacks are cheated out of Social Security because on average they do not live as long as Caucasians and such.

From this story, it seems that particular ethnic group more than makes up for it in terms of other welfare entitlement programs though.

Are we going to release comments to the media that Food Stamps are a bad investment of White dollars and that we should instead go to a program of privatized nutritional accounts?

Some courageous academic or think tank scholar should do a study to determine if the reduced statistical longevity has anything to do with the larcenous activity younger members of this demographic are known to wallow in.

Maybe if they would behave themselves, there would be more of them around to collect their Social Security checks.

Maybe if their food stamp allowances were cut, they wouldn’t have as much time on their hands and thus have a better chance of making it to retirement since their time would be spent on work and self improvement rather than seeing how much trouble they can get into.

Interesting, isn’t it, how the government is eager to cut out a program you work to qualify for but seems bent on expanding the scope of unearned handouts?

Teats For Tots: Holiday Season Gets Whole New Kind Of Ho Ho Ho

When shoppers head to the store during the Christmas season, it is assumed the price is borne by the party giving the gift. However, should these yuletide bequeathals originate from questionable sources, the price extracted can in fact be too high for the recipient.

Though allegedly an act of selflessness and altruism, the act of gift giving is as much about bringing praise and a sense of self-satisfaction to the giver. The act, in fact, bestows a degree of legitimacy upon the giver in the eyes of the receiver and can boost the ego or esteem of the party giving the gift.

This oft-denied reality bounced to the surface this past Christmas quicker than a Hooter girl on a trampoline when the even more ribald counterparts of these risque serving wenches attempted to create a favorable impression of their questionable profession.

In 2003, floozies from Teaser’s strip club distributed toys at the Statesville, North Carolina housing project. This past Christmas, however, administrators declined donations from these purveyors of the lust of the flesh.

The problem is not so much with these loose women and their patrons wanting to spread Christmas cheer to children who allegedly won’t have anything under their trees (apparently these people have never heard of dollar or thrift stores) but rather the way in which these seductresses have gone about doing so in the past.

Often those playing secret Santa deposit their gifts on the doorsteps of the economically challenged, never revealing their identities. No doubt that is why the word “secret” is emphasized; apparently there’s something about the concept ditzy blondes cannot seem to grasp as they distributed the gifts in such an ostentatious manner that they would make a pimp’s tailor blush.

Instead of quietly distributing the gifts under the cover of evening, these ladies of the twilight showed up in limousines and scanty outfits. Those opposed to these titillating histrionics where accused of having a 1940’s mentality (certain aspects of which might actually do us some good).

But perhaps even worse and even more shocking is one of the sources of support for these women of questionable repute. Pastor Jeff Porter of the First Baptist Church of Statesville told the Record and Landmark that the holidays are when differences are to be set aside because “Christmas gives us the chance to cross barriers for the less fortunate. The Bible is full of times when folks of all backgrounds took one step closer to God by acting like Jesus.”

In other words, we ought to set aside our most cherished values and beliefs. Interesting, isn’t it, how those holding to traditional standards are expected to lower them rather then requiring those in the gutter to elevate themselves. The Bible is indeed full of examples where individuals of all backgrounds “took one step closer to God by acting like Jesus.”

However, such accounts of redemption were only accomplished by committing one’s life to the standards to which Christ has called us. It may come as a shock, but there is more to the Biblical message than the proto-Marxian redistribution of goods and property of the hippy Jesus promulgated by apostate ecclesiastical syndicates such as the National Council of Churches.

While Jesus did stress the need to assist the downtrodden, even more central to His message was the condemnation of sin throughout the course of His ministry. Thus, how can individuals claim to be acting in the Lord’s name when they don’t believe sin actually exists, for if they believed sin did they would not take their cloths off in public or advertise that they do so without embarrassment.

Jesus kept His pants on. Shouldn’t those eager to follow His example do the same?

Try as religious liberals might to excuse various transgressions such as homosexuality and fornication by obfuscating Biblical injunctions against these acts, there is little that can be done to deny the connection between acknowledging one’s sin nature and the shame of public nudity.

In Genesis 2:25, before falling into sin, it says Adam and Eve were naked and not ashamed. But after eating of the forbidden fruit, Genesis 3 tells us Adam and Eve realized they needed to conceal their bodies now that sin pervaded every aspect of their being.

Ever since that day our first parents felt the need to cover up their privates, only two groups have countered the moral need for clothing. On the one hand, there are the ignorant such as the National Geographic jungle savages who know no better and on the other are those who unabashedly flout the standards of propriety and decorum.

The deep theological ramifications of nudity in the current dispensation aside, is it really wise to glamorize careers in the sleaze racket as impressionable young eyes look on? If you have no problem portraying strippers and exotic dancers in a favorable light and as pillars of the community, would you like your daughter, sister, or mother to take off her clothes off for a living in front of a bunch of dirty old men?

Furthermore, would you feel comfortable accepting Christmas gifts from a stripper who goes out of her way to make sure you and your child know she is a stripper? If not, why not?

Interesting how the most effusive proponents of hedonistic solipsism become as prudish (sometimes even more so) as the rest of us when their own children are involved. Kind of like how Madonna won’t let her own children watch TV but has made a career of thrusting her own bosoms into the face of the American people.

It has been said there is no such thing as a free lunch. The same could be said of gifts as well. For even though such items do not cost the recipient anything in terms of money, they can extract a price in terms of the indebted loyalty they end up demanding.

According to this story, the DC taxpayer's have to pick up the tab for Inaguration security.

Thus, in the eyes of the Bush Administation, Inagural pomp out ranks public safety.

If things are that bad, maybe we ought not have Inagural festivities.

After all, we're told the rest of the time how this is Post-9/11 world and we can't do other things we use to do.
