The Alliance Defense Fund is what the ACLU would be if it would just lay off the smack long enough to realize its a soul-sold whore protecting some of the most evil behavior humanity is capable of.
Its not often I get in the role of advocacy, because that's not necessarily the purpose of this blog, but this is a good organization that is literally doing God's work in protecting the "freedom of religion" part of the first amendment.
A graduate student in Georgia is suing her university after she was told she must undergo a remediation program due to her beliefs on homosexuality and transgendered persons.
Georgia.....hmmm.....the one that borders Russia....right?
The student, Jennifer Keeton, 24, has been pursuing a master's degree in school counseling at Augusta State University since 2009, but school officials have informed her that she'll be dismissed from the program unless she alters her "central religious beliefs on human nature and conduct," according to a civil complaint filed last week.
Oh holy hell they mean our Georgia! As should be imagined, a lawsuit is in progress and the ADF is on the case.
Yeah I already read the story so I shouldn't feign shock, but like a Democrat proposing a new government program to solve some problem, every time I click the link I like to think "maybe this time would be different."
I love how Augusta State faculty deems that Keeton needs "remediation." Maybe they're embarrassed that Keeton has made it all the way through the public education gauntlet to grad school while maintaining her faith.
Maybe the faculty of Augusta State University should go through American Remediation and be exposed to the secret documents that frame our laws and value system...like the Constitution.
I have to be honest, I'm not surprised that we've been moving toward this Brave New Anti-Christian world, but it is kind of a shock to see the machine that fulfills Orwell's prophecies working so brazenly in a state like Georgia. I guess that unlike illegal immigration in Arizona it looks like re-education camps know no borders.
"The faculty identifies Miss Keeton's views as indicative of her improper professional disposition to persons of such populations," the lawsuit reads.
Point, Augusta State...I have no doubt these Orwellian-college-think-monkeys who want to expel students, who are not actually failing out of school, for having the audacity to be Christian (aka the REAL audacity of hope) would know exactly what it means to have an "improper professional disposition."
Maybe they'll back off if she changes her name to Iraq, or Iran, or Shirley Sherrod
I will grant the university this, we don't know from the article what Keeton has written that has given them cause for concern. However, all of this is taking place at a public institution, and her first amendment right to both speech and religion are protected. Should she graduate and start a career as a counselor her record at that point should speak for itself and not have to endure preemptive strikes launched against it by a bunch of book jockey's that don't live in the real world.
Keeton has already become a cause celeb on Facebook, she has both a Support and Remove page for her.
The "Remove" page actually has some surprisingly intelligent reasons for why the university is right, click here for a screen shot featuring one of them (WARNING: don't click if you don't like profanity.)
As of this writing I don't know if that eloquently worded gem of persuasion is still posted there, but I don't care to keep checking either.
If you can, please support the Alliance Defense Fund. They are the first, last, and more often than not, only line of defense against the secular and anti-christian madness that has been gradually strengthening it's grip on the country. I have donated money to them and you can donate here.
It's not news that many Hollywood elites like Oliver Stone are apologists for, if not downright friendly to leftist dictators, and are more than likely commies themselves.
Now Oliver Stone latest documentary intellectual snuff film "Secret History of America" seeks to put guys like Hitler and Stalin "in context." (according to this Newsbusters post)
If you want to place bets on how many days will pass before I will buckle down and watch that fine piece of cinema, I would take the over on that.....WAY OVER. Even then you still might lose, because I don't how your bookie would be able to gauge the over on eternity.
The only movie I remember seeing of his was World Trade Center, and that's because watching it didn't propel me into some leftist twilight zone. At this point, however, I think there is only one other Oliver Stone movie I would ever plunk down stimulus money for the rest of my time in this life....

Here is another joke I received in an email. Get used to me sharing them, and send me yours!
Barack Obama was seated next to a little girl on an airplane trip back to Washington. He turned to her and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to The Obama, "What would you like to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know," said the Obama. "How about What Changes I Should Make To America?" and he smiles.
"OK," she says. "That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"
Obama, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it for a second and finally says, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to change America when you don't know shit?"
I was planning on writing up something about the debacle with the White House's handling of Shirley Sherrod...but then a more concise and graphic way to do it popped in my head...

I think liberals should have a Groundhog Day type of event where they cram a bunch of garbage down a voter's throat (they need something tangible to represent their philosophy) and if the voter doesn't puke until they die they get 4 more years of power.
That said, there is a new Quinnipiac poll out that paints yet another grim picture for the Democrats, where they would lose again in a generic ballot against Republicans.
While this is good news, the thing that irritates me about the reporting of these polls is that they continue to be interpreted, with a acumen of a tax-raising liberal in a recession, as "anti-incumbent sentiment."
This implies there isn't a rational reason to explain why the Democrat's numbers stink worse than poop that fell into a pile of ObamaCare. As if they're not doing anything at all (like hypothetically speaking defy the will of the public AND OPENLY ADMIT TO IT) to deserve the voter wrath that's marching toward November.
We all know that's ridiculous. This party under Obama's leadership has made so many gaffes you'd think they invented the concept.
This is a blog post, not Noah's Ark
I could go ahead and list the examples, but if you don't already know them then this post is probably above your pay-grade anyway....
All of this reminds me of a cartoon I drew many years ago (and is very different from the artwork I do now) that has nothing to do with politics but speaks perfectly to this issue. Basically, the problem Democrats and media have with interpreting the poll numbers goes something like this...
The poll also found that at the moment voters, by a three point margin, would pick ANY REPUBLICAN over Obama in 2012. In other words, every Republican in the country has a viable shot at being president if they were on the ballot against Obama today.
Your dog, if it's registered Republican and has a verifiable United States birth certificate, could be elected president over Obama .
Even Lindsey Graham could be elected president against Obama! All he'd have to do is become a Republican!
If Quinnipiac's finding is correct I guess even Obama could possibly avoid a scorching 2012 defeat by becoming a Republican, but then again, probably not. I don't think he'd withstand the pressure of the media demanding he show proof of citizenship.
Roll over the characters to see their lines (every character has a line except Dorothy in act 2, so if you don't see it right away be patient, its just loading).
I guess the order doesn't really matter, but I set it up so the proper way to go is from left to right (coincidence?).
Act 1
Act 2
Act 3
And because the liberals didn't want what the wizard had to offer we all lived CRAPILY EVER AFTER.
