and it bummed you out that your pastor presented this excuse for 53 percent of Catholics to support the Obamanator (who thinks denying care to the elderly, disabled, newly born, and killing the latter and the unborn is OK,) then head on over to Life Site News for clear talk on the issue.

Yep, today is a Bummer for the Pharmer. One more kid left in that parish school, and he has this year and two more to go. Just as the school seemed to take a turn for the better, we got a new pastor. And for prolife Sunday…… I had to restrain myself from pulling a Joe Wilson. The seamless garment idea isn’t classified as a lie, however. It is used as an intellectual excuse, by people who don’t know where money comes from, or how prosperity is generated, to vote for the guys who promise them funding for their favorite programs, by means of forced charity from others. (This forms a government bypass of the whole concept of charity altogether). So, for example, the U.S. Catholic Conference of Bishops can ignore Obama’s support of murder, in order to express their favor for his [empty] promises to help the poor.

A reminder to all the confused congenital Democrats who supported Obama. Without respect for the right to life, none of the other stuff has any meaning. Supporting the guy who will promote the killing of the elderly, disabled and babies in order to have more funds to give to “disadvantaged” groups is nonsensical.
With respect for all life comes pressure to find ways to help everyone. For example, March of Dimes used to concentrate more on means to assist those born with disabilities. Now, there is more focus on eliminating the problem of birth defects by eliminating those, who are affected, prior to birth. With that focus, the pressure to find new ways to assist the disabled goes by the wayside. We’ve heard Obama’s health advisers say that too much money is spent on technological advancements (those things born of a love and hope for life). Their concentration is to remove the disabled, thereby fixing the problem more cheaply, and leaving more resources for what????? Their own extravagant living, perhaps?

You don’t have to bail on your religion if you’d like to remove yourself and your family from the seamless garment abuse or analogous tangled thinking. Attending church is supposed to help you to be a better person. If that isn’t happening, for this or other reasons, find a more adherent pastor or preacher to teach you. That’s what Pharmer has in mind.

An argument against self absorbed leftists driving 18 wheelers is HERE.

Women are trending toward “equality” with men  but at the same time their happiness is trending downward.  As the women progress towards their “manhood” of accomplishments,  their happiness decreases.  It follows  that further progress towards becoming like men, career wise or behaviorally, isn’t going to cause a sudden spike in happiness. 
People don’t get happy by staring at their navels,  or otherwise obsessing with themselves and their own wants and needs.

We can see that more education, more career success, more sex partners,  more abortions, fewer kids,  and lowered expectations of relationships with men are not  associated with increased happiness.      (How about Mrs. Edwards, Mrs. Clinton,  Mrs. Sanford, and Mrs. Letterman….. suffering from lowered expectations, a bit?)

My recommendation for increased happiness is to drop off the last four  trends  from the above list. Add a recognition of the Creator and the order of creation., and put that in front of the first two items above.  

Put the NOW gals out to pasture. 

Olympics are going to Rio de Janeiro  as and Pharmer hopes  the people there are able to benefit from it, somehow.  It seems difficult to imagine a benefit to the local population which may get supplanted by the new structures necessary for the games.  Those  who have experienced the ‘joys’ of immanent domain understand some of the difficulties involved. 

Perhaps there will be less corruption associated with this location of the games, but one wonders………. which place is a more suitable host for the games,  Chicago, hehhehheh, or Rio.

Perhaps the Olympic commitee felt that it would be far too expensive to deal with the amount of greasing that the political machine of Chicago requires.

One wonders what the State of the Ego is after this little setback on the world stage.  

How long a refractory period will be required before the pressing issue of Afghanistan is taken up?

Just after Whoopie Goldberg and a long line of other Hollywood luminaries endorsed sex between middle age men and drugged 13 year old girls,  David Letterman confesses that he had sex with some of his staffers.  Likely these are recent incidents, or an extortionist wouldn’t have tried to generate income using the information.
