THIS is what Our Lord Christ thinks of the anti-Muslim haters…

I have some hope that Rouhani might actually make a difference. He has the cred to have standing with the powers-that-be in Tehran, but also may find a way to dialogue with the West in a way that’s neither obsequious nor terminally dysfunctional (like Ahmadinejad). Fingers crossed and candles lit; may God shed his grace on all of us and bring an honourable and peaceful end to the ridiculous nuclear stand-off. The Iranian people deserve it.
I quite agree. As a god-fearing Christian, I oppose Potapov, Dreher, Paffhausen, Webster, and Jacobses, who support the American demonisation of Iran, neocon warmongering throughout the world, and rightwing lunacy in general. All decent people hate their vicious and god-denying drivel (may God offer them “the onion”, though)…

16 June 2013. Some of My Favourite Things… “Bring ‘Em Home!”

THIS is what the Republican anti-life programme stands for… any questions? Bring ’em home! There’s something that you can bank on… the Republican oligarchs’ kids aren’t bleeding for their profits. It’s evil… and all their mewling about “Pro-Life” can’t change it…

Sadly, this is still relevant. Like Pete, I’m no pacifist. If some oppressor, either foreign or domestic, were to come, I’d be one of the fighters, you bet! My Zaporozhian dander would be up, and I wouldn’t be alone! I’d do what I could, you could count on that. Bring our boys home… let no more of our lovely working-class kids die for the grasping McMansion pukes and their profits. If we ended the wars and returned taxation on the rich to Pre-Bush levels, we’d have the debt spent down WITHOUT cutting the social safety net. That’s why I stand proud as a Democratic Socialist.
You can have the oligarchs’ wars or you can have prosperity for all. It’s our choice…
