Light another candle for Hannukah! A holiday is a holiday, but an accurate transliteration of the proper Hebraic name is impossible -- ain't no vowels in the written language anyway.

Media Watch: The U.S. Presidential Horse Race is on! Soft Soap and Soapy Smith-style media consultants rule the airwaves, thanks to a corrupt Supreme Court who sanctioned media bribery back in the 90's. One Republican candidate, Willard (Mitt) Romney, who trembles in fear of the well-heeled evangelical Right Wing, just said:
Freedom requires religion... Historical examples to the contrary are almost infinite in number. ...just as religion requires freedom -- a completely FALSE equivalency! ...Freedom opens the windows of the soul so that man can discover his most profound beliefs... Do I dare think we agree on something? ...and commune with God... Uh, whose version of God? Another false equivalency, I'm afraid. ...Freedom and religion endure together, or perish alone... Rank propaganda in this context -- freedom of religion especially means freedom from religious domination. Like this paragraph from the Constitution of the United States of America says:
Article VI. 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.
Anyway, Romney's objects of fear and supplication hate him anyway because of his OWN religion. It's sad to see him cringing at the feet of sworn enemies, but what is worse is that he wants to be their front-person in destroying the constitution of our country.

Now for something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!



A digital re-creation of a flier similar to those Dave Brothers used to hang all over the Wasatch Front -- starring Jayne Mansfield, born Vera Jayne Palmer (1933 - 1967), advertising his VERY satirical "church" broadcasts on 106 FM in the late 70's/early 80's. (BTW -- this blog also gets a lot of searches for one of her husbands, bodybuilder Mickey Hargitay.)
