Prophesy Unto Us Lies
Our Government Thinks You Are Stupid
It’s occurred to me to consider just how much time, energy, and money our government spends to convince you that you are stupid.
Our bureaucratic federal government’s opinion of your intellectual capacity is appalling.
NEW FEDERAL PROGRAMS REQUIRED BECAUSE OF YOUR INCOMPETENCE!

A Course in Freedom

Republican Steely Resolve on Budget
Well, the Republican budget hawks really plucked the feathers off those spendthrift Democrats last night!
Just listen to this: they negotiated a $38 billion cut from the budget for this year! Really stood up for for fiscal sanity.

The Imperial Presidency
This is a follow-up to my last post about Qaddafi as an Evil Spirit.
It’s clear that there is no U.S. interest in our involvement in Libya. No U.S. citizens were in danger. Libyians were involved in the bombing of a German discotheque in 1986, but the perpetrators were punished in court. Libya has not attacked any U.S. …
Qaddafi as an Evil Spirit
Some reflections on the war kinetic military action in Libya.
Matthew (12:43-45) quotes Jesus as telling the story of what can happen when you cast out an evil spirit- like Qaddafi. The spirit departs to a dry place seeking rest (perhaps in Uganda); but finds none.
