KlingonShit happens - again.

I wrote about this guys election HERE.

Gordon “Dr. Chaps” Klingenschmitt, the Religious Right activist and Colorado state representative, is adept at “discerning the spirits” within his adversaries and applied his talents to the leaders of Planned Parenthood on his “Pray In Jesus Name” program this weekend.

“I don’t believe these people for a moment, do you? In fact, we can discern upon them the spirit of lying, the spirit of death, the spirit of murder, the spirit of greed. I mean, whenever I look at a picture of those executives, if you look in the spirit, at the demons inside of them, you can see the blood dripping from their fangs. These people are just evil.” - Gordon KlingonShit

I am not going to apologize for the Klingon joke. I know how this guy got elected. You stoners and trekkies cannot fool me. I mean, who else would vote for him? There cannot be that many fundamentalist Christians in Colorado. They legalized marijuana did they not?

Musical Interlude for Attitude Adjustment - Philadelphia Opera Company

There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats. - Albert Schweitzer
I shop at Reading Terminal Market weekly for fresh ground coffee and real bread. Iovine's for fresh produce. The Amish butcher for breakfast sausage and honey. Then I eat lunch at Pearl's Oyster Bar. Music and good food is Paradise.

I love the City of Brotherly Love. You never know when a random act of culture by the Philadelphia Opera Company may appear.

Where is Barry Goldwater now that we need him?

The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States. - Article Six of the Constitution of the United States of America
Ted Cruz said this at the Kill the Gays Conference:
"No man who doesn't begin every day on his knees is fit to stand in the Oval Office"
I have only one question. It is the President who needs the kneepads now instead of the intern?

Republicans want to stick their noses so far up my hoohah they can see my uvula because Jesus. If any of these sick fundamentalist freaks becomes POTUS, I am emigrating. I just do not know where to go. 

Kill the Gays! Bengazi! This is policy?

Barry Goldwater said this and I keep quoting him in hope that somebodys somewhere really are conservative:
On religious issues there can be little or no compromise. There is no position on which people are so immovable as their religious beliefs. There is no more powerful ally one can claim in a debate than Jesus Christ, or God, or Allah, or whatever one calls this supreme being. But like any powerful weapon, the use of God's name on one's behalf should be used sparingly. The religious factions that are growing throughout our land are not using their religious clout with wisdom. They are trying to force government leaders into following their position 100 percent. If you disagree with these religious groups on a particular moral issue, they complain, they threaten you with a loss of money or votes or both.
I'm frankly sick and tired of the political preachers across this country telling me as a citizen that if I want to be a moral person, I must believe in "A," "B," "C" and "D." Just who do they think they are? And from where do they presume to claim the right to dictate their moral beliefs to me?
And I am even more angry as a legislator who must endure the threats of every religious group who thinks it has some God-granted right to control my vote on every roll call in the Senate. I am warning them today: I will fight them every step of the way if they try to dictate their moral convictions to all Americans in the name of "conservatism."
