Halloween Horror

Posted in Humor, Politics, Society on October 31st, 2011

Halloween, a time of fun, a bit of madness, a liberal dose of excess, all seasoned with a touch of horror. Of course, sometimes the horror is bit overwhelming…

Oh Crap, A Democrat!

Then again, if you’re going to teach your children to go begging handouts, it’s best that they learn about the Democrats’ ideas about wealth redistribution and “trickle up” economics as soon as possible. πŸ˜‰

Happy Halloween

Halloween as it is celebrated in America isn’t really my sort of holiday but there’s upsides to it nonetheless.

The costumes, combined with the tendency to put one’s inhibitions on hold for a night, are often enough to make it a pleasant secular exuberance. πŸ˜€

No! Arrest This Guy

Posted in Politics on October 29th, 2011

Rick McKee’s cartoon aptly sums up the lamestream MSM’s bias on the matter of protesters and how they seek to further their agenda at the expense of the last fading shreds of journalistic ethics.

No! Arrest This Guy, the America
No! Arrest This Guy, Not The Wannabe Insurgent

It’s sadly quite classic. The MSM, long a fifth column within America, paints the Patriots of the TEA Parties as dangerous, violent thugs – and racists, of course – while portraying the slackers of the #Occupy [wherever] rabble as peaceful protesters representing Americans. And, of course, the truth of the respective matters is irrelevant to treasonous MSM.

If you tell a lie that’s big enough, and you tell it often enough, people will believe you are telling the truth, even when what you are saying is total crap.

Conspiracies You Don’t Have to Be Crazy to Believe

The truth of the matter is that, over the course of several years and hundreds of TEA Party protests, that movement has been peaceful, law abiding, and non-disruptive to their communities. The only violence that has happened has been when union thugs attacked TEA Party members.

Contrariwise, in just a few weeks time, the “Occupiers” have repeatedly and consistently violated the law, disrupted the communities they’ve invaded, and resulted in violence.

That is the truth that the Liberals’ MSM won’t speak of because they fear the truth second of all things. The first being Americans who’ve grown fed up with their lies and who are finally ready to fully exercise their 2nd Amendment rights to exterminate these domestic enemies.

That’s No Jack-O-Lantern

Carving pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns has become an intense competition. Nowhere is this more true than in the wake of the coup that overthrew the Old Republic.

JesusWeen

Posted in Humor, Religion, Society on October 27th, 2011

A small number of Christians want to “put the Jesus back in Halloween” and are promoting a Christian alternative to the normal Halloween festivities on October 31. They call it JesusWeen.

Jesusween - It sort of makes sense, if you think about Yahweh objectively
Jesusween, It Sort Of Makes Sense

You know, if you objectively think about the Abrahamics’ God, Yahweh, it’s makes a certain sort of sense to have JesusWeen. Yahweh’s a scary sort of deity and Jesus, while beneficent, has some scary bits as well. πŸ˜†

NOTE: Don’t take this too seriously, my Christian readers; it’s meant in largely non-nasty fun. As a Pagan, and one who follows something akin to what many are wont to call Celtic Rite Paganism, the secular orgy of binge eating and juvenile begging / protection racketeering is at least as offensive to me as it is to you.
