Kinda Like A Cross Between Ramadan and Weight Watchers

Now look what the gays have done.

Join us for 40 Days of Prayer, Fasting and Repentance for Marriage from August 27 through October 5, 2014. Our state and nation are mired in confusion and post-modern thinking and nowhere is this more evident than in the current debate raging about what constitutes marriage. The Supreme Court begins their session on October 6th. We fully expect them to take a marriage case sometime in the next year. Our 40 Days will culminate on October 5th just before the court begins their session.

They even have a nice little sign for your front door.  Click the little one to get the big one, or not.

No, seriously, they want you to go without eating for 40 days and offer this helpful guide.

Forty days seems like a lot, but – considering the length of a lifetime and in comparison to eternity – it is only a moment in time. The Scriptures record many stories that exemplify how God changed a people and a nation in 40 days.

But there’s like very cool supernatural food.

You may find it difficult to surrender your food to the Lord, and, especially in the beginning, you may first need to fast (surrender) your time. As you grow in the discipline of spending time with the Lord, He will build a desire and a strength that will allow you to set aside your natural food for His completely fulfilling supernatural food.

Damn gays.  Making me eat manna instead of barbeque.

Thanks to Brian for the heads up.

Rick Perry Wishes He’d Thought of This

July 11, 2014 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

You know how Republicans can’t get along with anyone, especially each other?

Pennsylvania has a GOP Governor and a GOP controlled lege.  They hate each other.

In a campaign commercial earlier this week, Gov. Tom Corbett proclaimed, “I didn’t come to Harrisburg to makes friends.”

The accuracy of that statement was inarguable Thursday as the Republican governor denounced a Legislature controlled by his own party while its leaders lashed back at the embattled incumbent and his inability to turn legislative majorities into policy results. Years of mutual frustration were on display as the governor vetoed funds for the Legislature while state Rep. Mike Turzai, R-Bradford Woods, the House majority leader, accused the governor of playing politics and the Senate’s united leadership issued a joint statement assailing Mr. Corbett’s inability to work with his colleagues.

So, when Governor Corbett signed a budget that he had fricasseed with a line item veto, he also sent a special message to the Lege …

Nice hand signals, Gov.

Thanks to Dianne for the heads up.

Lookie What You Did

Thanks to your help, Operation Matthew 25 jumped from it’s original lofty goal of 25 backpack to 50.  Cindy sent pictures.  Click the little ones to see the big ones.

The first arrivals came from Fed Ex.

And then the Post Office sent a truck just for deliveries.  Everything in the truck except the letters is for the backpacks.

Over the past week, Cindy’s house came close to qualifying for a Hoarders episode.

Thank you, Cindy Cole for putting the snowball on top of the hill and giving it a shove.  Thanks to all of you for showing love, compassion, and generosity in a world where it is much needed.  As we say here in Texas, “Good on you!”  Smile all weekend because you’ve earned it.

 

Big Bad Boys

So, you wanna see Rick Perry and Sean Hannity protecting our border from unaccompanied 3 to 16 year old refugees. Bullet proof vests and heavy artillery.

And now you know why President Obama wouldn’t go.

Big tough guys.

Louie Is Spending His Campaign Money UPDATED

July 10, 2014 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Our friend Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen has a hobby besides flipping burgers.  Well, and tending his beer can collection.  And, his velvet painting art classes.  And, totally ignoring soccer.  Anyway, he’s a busy guy but not too busy to keep an eye on how politicians get and spend campaign donations.

As you know, Alfredo heads straight for Louie Gohmert’s because they are the most entertaining.

Take these latest expenditure.

 

There has got to be an interesting story behind this expense.

And you’ll be happy to know that Louie’s campaign bought a brand new car for Louie.  It’s a Buick.  Probably red.

But, probably because the old one broke down too much.

Screen Shot 2014-07-10 at 10.58.02 AM

According to Louie’s report, he bought a desk from the WalMart PAC.  Neither Alfredo or I have ever seen anything like that before.

But, there is a video explaining how in this case, Louie gets everything for nothing.

Thanks to Alfredo and Brian for the heads up.

So I’m Confused

July 10, 2014 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

I will admit this is not the first time that Rick Perry has confused me.

Okay, so let’s start out with the dead certain guaranteed fact that Perry hates the federal government, often threatens to secede, and says that Texas doesn’t need the federal government, no sire, not even to help take care of our sick children by accepting $100 billion in Medicaid money.

But, he’s begging for federal help with the border?

I would go for that if every new federal border patrol agent could bring a couple million dollars of Medicaid money under each arm.

You know, there are more border patrol agents on the border under Obama than there were under Bush.

And that doesn’t seem to be working.

So, Perry, who thinks the federal government does nothing right, wants more federal government.

No wonder he’s grumpy.
