Why offshore drilling must be banned. Period


Here's an argument even the oil soaked GOP will have a hard time with:

Unless we want to surround every single offshore well with a Naval flotilla, they are simply easy soft targets for terrorists. While we are still reeling from the DeepWater Horizon indecent, a tugboat has crashed into ANOTHER oil rig in the gulf and it is now spewing.
All a terrorist (Eco, Homegrown, Jihadist) has to do is load a boat with explosives and send it into a rig. They don't even have to blow themselves up.
Why are the Drill,Baby,Drill crowd soft on National defense and Homeland Security?

Born Again!

O.K. This will blow most everyone's mind. I am a born again Christian. Much of what I have been doing here was all a precursor to my accepting Jesus Christ as my personal savior. I am a recovering..Pot Head. I am approximately 30 days clean and sober. After 32 years of denial, agnosticism and reading so-so many books except the one that really matters, I have turned my life over to Christ. Giving up reefer was easy. Cutting loose 30 year friendships that are bad for me (Including my Mother and Sister) was and is extremely difficult. My new family and friends are at my community church which I will not name till I have permission. This is not something I do lightly. Ironically or perhaps divinely, I was baptised yesterday in of all places the Cape Coral Yacht Club pool. Ironic because this is where I used to take my cassette case full of nicely rolled joints to "Find the party" Peace out and God Bless. Ray

Most evangelicals do not acknowledge the Church of  Latter Day Saints, as they do Judaism or other forms of Christianity. Mormonism seems to me a relatively new schism designed to obscure the finances of a secret society. (You may argue they all are) It has little to do with scripture and the teachings of  Jesus.  The huge churches IMO are an offense to God. Churches should be humble; acquiring  real estate and wealth is  antithetical to Jesus's teachings. The church of LDS holdings are incalculable. It's disgusting.   Churches in our country are tax exempt, but I don't think the church of LDS deserves that exemption. Most churches don't, they are businesses, and should be taxed as such.   Jesus would certainly rebuke todays churches: Luke 18:23 (N.I.V.) "...

"WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY, IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH."

"If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever." George Orwell - "1984" You've seen the moveon supporter getting foot stomped by Rand Paul's thugs. 1984 is one of the 2 scariest books I ever read. The other is "Atlas Shrugged" To quote Leonard Cohen "I've seen the future baby it is murder" Anti-Flag - WELCOME TO 1984
