THIS is why I pay attention to politics:
1) I don't like anyone controlling my life, especially someone to whom I did not give my permission to do so. It smacks of King George III.
2) I don't like those who get away with controlling my life to steal from me, too. It smacks of King George III.
3) I don't like it when the ordinary men and women who get away with controlling my life set themselves up as being above me and, hence, absolved of abiding by the same rules by which they demand that I live (and then get away with breaking those rules when they would so easily send me to prison for breaking those same rules). This is the essence of hypocricy, and this, too, smacks of King George III (not to mention King hillary and her wife, Queen bilious).
I feel that, if I am unwilling to guard my own front door against such tyranny, who WILL guard it? Certainly not those who seek to control my life and steal from me as they tell me what a good job they are doing guarding that door!
I am leary of anyone who claims to have only my best interests at heart as they allthewhile stab me in the back. Truth is that people such as this are gutless cowards, deserving only of society's wrath - and a prison cell!
You do know who King George III was, don't you?

For those who hate politics (and, yes, I'm pretty tired, too, of having to bring this stuff to your attention), PLEASE read the following, which, hopefully, will enlighten you to the truth that, despite their rhetoric and lies, DEMOCRATS DO NOT REALLY CARE ABOUT YOU one iota. You should care because these democrats control your lives by stealing your money for themselves:
It is because of stunts such as the following that I am so spitting mad and forever firmly and utterly convinced beyond any shadow of a doubt whatsoever that democrats are weasels. OH, sorry - I guess I shouldn't use the word "weasel" because to equate democrats with weasels disrespects the weasels.
No wonder I get so f'ing mad at these demoncrap yahoos. The democrats have done it again, this time setting the perfect example of why every citizen should wake up and vote them out of office - permanently. You wanna know why California is going through such hardship these days? The bozo democrats, always leaving a trail of poverty and destruction behind their state majority position political "leadership," have totally fucked up California's finances, with soon-to-be-ex "governor" gray davis having mounted a $39.4 BILLION dollar budget deficit while he mounts the state's citizens to steal our wallets as he screws us. POINT -- The Way has already discussed this ad nauseum, but the fact remains that California's deficit is larger than the aggregate total of all the deficits from all of the remaining 49 states COMBINED! The job market here sucks and more citizens are losing their jobs each and every day; police and fire department budgets are being slashed, allowing more criminals to get away and crime to increase; programs for schools, children, the disabled and the elderly are being cut left and right; people here are starving and dying, and davis has the audacity to claim that the recall effort to yank his sorry ass out of office is bad because it "won't help one child."
So, what's the stunt? While the state still doesn't have a budget, while the citizens are getting nothing but screwed by this bunch of political thugs and con artists, California's chief administrative officer of the Assembly Rules Committee, Jon Waldie, a democrat, has decided to spend $10,000 on a bunch of fashionably expensive but crappy, cheap - and even cheaper looking - plastic furniture for his staff. Won't someone, please, point, pull and take this guy out of our misery? The money for these furnishings was allocated three years ago, but it was never spent, and a deadline approached: either spend the money or it goes back into the state's raped general fund, to be used for programs to feed needy children, among other absolutely necessary needs. To many in this beleaguered state, this money should have been spent on those children, not on a bunch of over-priced plastic furniture, and Waldie's failure to acknowledge the needs of those children whom davis claims to care about SO much is nothing short of immoral, if not criminal. But democrats always act as though your money is their money, to be spent first on pleasing themselves. This behavior is truly TYPICAL of the DEMOCRATS!
I am just SO FUCKING MAD!
Here is another fine example of the immoral foundation of democrats: When faced with a thorny issue such as this, democrats always fail to answer the tough questions directly, let alone with the truth, choosing, instead, to deflect blame away from themselves with some typically snide comment to the effect that, "that's just the way it is, so we should all just shutup, look the other way and forget about it." What is the key comment in this case? In light of the needs of the state's disabled, the elderly and those children, Waldie was asked if spending this money on junk furniture was absolutely necessary. Instead of having the balls to answer the question directly, Waldie gave a classically typical obfuscatory democrat answer, saying, "Is anything absolutely necessary? We can make that argument on anything. Is it something I think that's absolutely necessary for this staff? Yes I do." So, "Mr." Waldie, the comfort of your staff asses is more important than food for those starving children about whom you democrats claim to care so much? Uh, uuh, yeah, sure!
Truth is that democrats are first and foremost always concerned about their own comfort, and they will always choose to use our stolen tax dollars to please themselves first and well before they will actually put our money where their mouths are to help those children (or anyone else) about whom they claim to care so much!
THE LESSON: The "We care about the children" rhetoric that so constantly and profusely exudes from the mouths of all democrats, evil as they are, is nothing more than prevarication used by them to con the voters so that these evil scumbags get what they want. Simply, this is just another fine and fitting example of democrat selfishness and immorality! What more of a reason do we need to get rid of these flakes? Why do we keep them around when they continue to show such staunch disregard for those whom they are supposed to represent? The citizens and people of the state are supposed to come before the comfort of these asses! It's supposed to be about US - not them!!!
When are people gonna wake the hell up?
I AM JUST SO FUCKING MAD!!!!!

North Carolina "Senator" John Edwards, another typical communist democrat, is running for President. This weasel should keep running - back to his backwoods outhouse. Because he is a hypocrite and a liar, he certainly is qualified, or, more properly, believes that he is qualified, to decide for you what you should think and do - with your life, your thoughts and your money. Thank you, Johnny, for being better than we are, and for deciding for us; afterall, democrats always know better - and are always more than happy to remind us that we should be listening to them, huh? Today, Edwards attacked President Bush for making a truthful statement in the January 2003 State of the Union address. (Interesting to note that democrats, who are so good at attacking, are always such whimps when it comes to really defending America!) In the address, President Bush said, "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa." These 16 words have become the democrats' latest platform of attack; nevermind that the words were truthful. Despite the best (or, is that "worst?") efforts of the demoncraps to try to pin something - anything - on Mr. Bush, truth is that his words remain truthful. Nonetheless, demoncraps everywhere have decided to ignore the actual statement, choosing instead to put words in Mr. Bush's mouth, words that these demoncraps have decided are lies. (How convenient of them.)
Democrats know all about lies; they practically invented them. Hypocrite Edwards, being without sin, is casting stones at President Bush. In his attack, Edwards said, "President Bush, when he speaks, needs to take responsibility for what he says." Take Responsibility? Mr. Edwards, do you mean take responsibility, as you are, by refusing to acknowledge what President Bush really said - and the truth of it? Do you mean take responsibility by being an honest man and refusing to lie to the public, despite your already having done so in your attack? Oh - I know - you must mean take responsibility just as communist democrat "president" bilious clinton did when he lied to the American public about Monica, not to mention, more importantly, his having lied - under oath - in a court of law. Surely, Mr. Edwards, you would agree that to take responsibility means that what you claim is good for some of us is good for us all.
Mr. Edwards, you attack Mr. Bush when he speaks the truth, yet you failed to hold clinton to the same standard that you preach, having refused to vote for his impeachment, choosing, instead, to vote that clinton was not guilty of perjury or obstruction of justice. Partisan politics does not absolve you of failing to take responsibility! Even the most remotely responsible person would agree, Mr. Edwards, that to be a hypocrite is anything but to take responsibility. However, that isn't you, is it, Mr. Edwards? Then again, maybe it depends on what the meaning of "is" is!
Truth is that, Mr. Edwards, you are an irresponsible hypocrite, and your dishonesty alone disqualifies you from serving as President of the United States of America!
What Edwards, whose IQ must be below room temperature, has failed to understand (or, at least, failed to publicly admit that he understands - he is a weasel, you know) is that (1) President Bush has and still does take responsibility for what he says, and (2) The President's statement remains truthful, no matter how the commie demoncraps attempt to parse it.
SIXTEEN WORDS: Mr. Edwards, when are you going to stop lying, take responsibility and start telling the truth?

Soon to be ex-California "governor" gray "puke" davis was out today again doing what democrats do best - lie. The easiest way to know what the 'craps are doing behind your back is to listen to what they are accusing the Republicans of doing. Trying to pin his malfeasance and failure to manage the state's finances on his legislative enemies, davis said, "I want to speak plainly. Republicans are willing to take California to the financial brink simply to advance their narrow partisan agenda."
Is it davis who is confused, or is it me? gray davis is a self-serving weasel who inherited a multi-billion dollar surplus from former California Governor Pete Wilson, who, by the way, was a Republican. davis immediately squandered it, leaving the state's citizens with a $39.4 BILLION deficit, still growing daily. Now, davis has the gall to attempt to screw the taxpayers even more by significantly jacking up their taxes to cover his political ass. Truth is that it is davis and California's democrat legislators who have taken the state to the financial brink, allthewhile advancing their narrow partisan agenda.
Why do people continue to vote for these democrat bozos? For those of you who are old enough to have actually garnered real life experience, notice the pattern: Republicans create wealth and prosperity; democrats lie to the voters to get elected so they can steal the goods, leaving it to those who earn it to pay for the democrats' trail of poverty and destruction; the people eventually get fed up with being screwed by the democrats' lies and deceit and vote the Republicans back into office; the Republicans then fix what the demoncraps have destroyed, and the cycle begins again.
I do not, by a long shot, agree with everything that the Republicans do (you should have heard me rail against that liar George H. W. Bush, who I still think should be hung for treason!), but I am old enough to have more than my share of real life exerience, and, having awakened, I no longer agree with anything that the democrats do or say. These neo-communists are out to destroy America; unfortunately, they are succeeding.
In response to the question of why public education continues to graduate idiots (and irrational whacko liberal idiots at that), I've been saying for more than 15 years that the democrats, despite their claims of "caring about the children," don't really want an educated public - because a knowledgeable and aware citizenry is in direct conflict with democrats' desire to continue to hold power over the people and their money. Sadly, democrats continue to get away with their lies because the people at large - particularly in California - are simply too stupid to see past these lies and understand how they are being forced to pay through their noses and rectums for the continuing stream of democrat ruination.
Thanks to davis, Californians are now toast! I can only continue to pray that we've reached the "I prefer to get kissed when I get fucked" stage and that gray davis and the rest of his criminal thugocracy soon get what they deserve. Won't someone, please, point and pull?
"...take California to the financial brink...?" Hey, davis, fuck you very much; you've done a wonderful job, you lying sack of shit! Come on over; I've got a whale of a kiss for you!

In the midst of politicians (living high on the hog off our money) and criminals trying to steal even more of it or otherwise kill us; while the terrorists plot our demise; as we all struggle just to keep the roof over our head and feed ourselves and our children; and as hillary and bilious continue to try to convince us that only they are worthy of being our king and queen (or, as they believe, it is we worthy of them, and, yes, I have the correct order for h&b, king & queen), something happens every once in awhile to pause us in our tracks to realize that, despite these sorts of "people," we are all one (a very Buddhist concept). Sometimes, certain events with which we have no direct connection causes us to realize that, in fact, we all are interconnected to one another through humanity, however much of that still exists.
Such an event for me, and maybe you, too, is the death yesterday, July 8, 2003, of Ladan and Laleh Bijani. I know this sounds stupid, but I can barely write about this, and I would have done so sooner if, for some strange reason, I hadn't found myself, for a good portion of the last 24 hours, unable to see straight through the tears - REALLY! I've bottled it up and tried not to think about it as I have gone about my business, but my heart truly and physically aches for them, and I must write this, in honor and memory of them, yes, but hoping, too, that doing so will be at least somewhat cathartic.
Ladan and Laleh, named after two flowers, were 29 year-old Iranian twins conjoined at the head who underwent a gruelling 50 hour operation in Singapore to separate them. In life, they were unable to even look directly at each other, being forced to use a mirror just to see who was there "on the other side." More than anything in the entire world, and despite the severe odds against the surgery being successful, these two beautiful young women had the courage to proceed, even knowing that they would probably die. Through their horrible life together, through such trials as simply trying to have one of them ride a bicycle while the other attempted to keep up, jogging alongside (riding a bicycle being something that we take entirely and unthinkingly for granted), even through the grim potential outlook for them, these two angels amongst us carried on, always with a collectively joyous smile.
When I found out that they had died, I was literally too stunned to stand, the reasons for which I don't think I entirely understand or can adequately explain. I have only known of Ladan and Laleh for the last five days, but they have had a lifetime of impact upon me. Today is the 10 year anniversary of the mullahs' violent quash of Iranian demonstrators protesting for democracy and freedom; the protestors who lived, and others, are once again demonstrating for democracy right now in Iran, in real time, as I write this, and the Iranian religious police are probably murdering hundreds of them for seeking liberty. That story will, undoubtedly, overshadow Ladan's and Laleh's passing, and the pair will be forgotten much too quickly. I, too, will probably forget their names and not be able to recite them a year from now. Yes, I will, of course, feel compassion and sorrow for the murdered Iranian freedom fighters, but my heart has been touched - inspired, yet pained, really - by Ladan's and Laleh's life and death, and I will never forget their smiling faces and their courage, an image forever seared upon me. Truth is that they have forever touched me and will always inspire me, as well as many others. Perhaps this is why God has allowed these two to pass and return to his side in heaven.
While I do not really believe in, what for me, is the overly-simplistic Christian concept of "heaven," I do believe in God - some sort of higher power or being. I cannot help but believe that even irrational atheists such as Michael Newdow, the liberal whacko moron who hypocritically (typical unthinking and uncaring idiot lib) used money with the word "god" on it to present a case and lie to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco in order to get America's Pledge of Allegiance ruled unconstitutional (Please don't tell him what the Nation's motto is!), would not be touched by the sheer pure humanity exhibited by these two angels of God. Yet, literally as Newdow was asking the U.S. Supreme Court to back him, Ladan and Laleh were dying. To me, even beyond Newdow's neo-communist idiocy and hypocrisy, the world event that takes precedence is more than obvious.
Newdow will probably have his case heard before the upcoming fall session of the Court, something about which, I suspect, I'll get pissed and write some other day. In the meantime, the power and strength of Ladan and Laleh touches me, and POINT -- The Way honors them and their contribution to the continuation of the humanity of us all.
Thank you, Ladan and Laleh, for your valiant bravery and courage. You have shown me more than any liberal could ever do. May you always and forever happily rest in peace at the right hand of God!
Ladan and Laleh

Savage dick with a couple of his fellow dummy butt buddies. Click the photo for a larger, more detailed view.
Michael Savage is living proof that there still are, unfortunately, some conservatives around who remain highly irrational and, possibly, perilously unstable and psychotic. The self-important Savage, known for his "The Savage Nation" hard-core unreasoned right wing radio prattle show, was fired Monday, July 7, 2003, by MSNBC for his recent incredibly insensitive and fanatically fiendishly freaky comments against gays made on the cable television version of his show. I guess that, unlike U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist and Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum (who belongs in a sanatorium), gays' money is still green - and micro$not and N.B.C., despite the broadcaster's neo-communist/socialist bent, still want that money for themselves.
Regarding the firing, MSNBC spokesperson Jeremy Gaines said, "His comments were extremely inappropriate, and the decision was an easy one." POINT -- The Way says, "Gee, ya' think?" Speaking to a caller identified as being "a sodomite," Savage mumpsimusly lashed out, "Oh, you’re one of the sodomites. You should only get AIDS and die, you pig. How’s that? Why don’t you see if you can sue me, you pig. You got nothing better than to put me down, you piece of garbage. You have got nothing to do today, go eat a sausage and choke on it.” Sounds rather hate filled, and Savage seems to think that only extreme hate will help solve the world's problems and the differences between several and different human beings.
Along with drooling and dreaming of cutting the testicles off gays and eating them, ala Jeffrey Dahmer (and gosh only knows what this whacko savage wants to do to lesbians, bisexuals or the transgendered), Savage runs the "Paul Revere Society," which, he claims, will "help save America." Save America? By murdering every LGBT in our great nation? Obviously, Savage has no concept of, and certainly doesn't support, gay rights. Unlike POINT -- The Way, which believes in and is rationally and objectively dedicated to the truth, and one of the purposes of which is to help save America (especially from buffoons such as Savage), Savage believes in the violent destruction of anything different. He must still be emotionally scarred from not having had enough time to get off when he was having experimental homosexual sex as a 12 year-old. (Or should that read "2 year-old?")
Truth is that Michael Savage is a blatently bloated bitter bigot who is only deserving of what he preaches. If you agree, you can let this yahoo know by sending your email comments to him at paulreveresociety@yahoo.com. Let's let him know that America can only be saved when Savage gets a taste of his own medicine. The sooner that whackos such as Savage are dead, the better America will be.

California remains in a financial quagmire, the budget for the new fiscal year, which started last July 1st, still not having been passed. All of the state's "leadership" positions are held by typical demoncrap politicians, who's answers to their inability to lead are to (1) simply further fuck the state's citizens by stealing even more of their money by again increasing their taxes, and (2) Give themselves a pay raise for doing such a fine job of fucking all of us. The democrats, as usual, assume that our money really belongs to them. Thank goodness that the Republicans are refusing to give in to this nonsense. Why should we have to pay for democrats' malfeasance? That's what the Recall Gray Davis thing is all about.
Infuriating in all of this bickering about where the money is gonna come from to pay for this or that is one simple observation, something that needs immediate attention: None of the legislators - NOT ONE! - democrat or Republican, have volunteered to lower their own pay. You and I are forced to accept less - much less! - because they are stealing more; why should they be any different? I can imagine hearing them whine that "It wouldn't help anyway," but it should be noted that, even with the financial problems, the democrats recently tried to give themselves a pay raise in the midst of this mess! Fortunately, the California Citizens Compensation Committee, the oversight committee with the power to disallow such bullshit did the right thing and refused to allow it, but it just provides further proof how irresponsible - fiscally and otherwise - democrats are.
Life in California sucks these days, thanks to gray davis and the demoncraps. No wonder more families and businesses each and every day are permanently leaving the state! The rest of us should leave, too, and leave the demoncraps and non-working illegal aliens to actually pay for themselves, God forbid! Gosh! From whom would they steal the money then?

POINT -- The Way is sick and tired of having to talk about California "governor" gray davis, but it must be done - RECALL HIS ASS, that is. The latest poll results, from the liberal leftist neo-communist Left Angeles Crimes newspaper, no less, shows that davis's "popularity" stands at an all time nationally historic low of just 22%, with 51% in favor of davis's removal from office and only 42% against the recall.
Today's irrational bit of bullshit & blather from davis just shows how much of an idiot he is. Responding to the poll numbers, davis said, "Once the voters find out how much this recall vote will cost, they'll be hopping mad." Like that's gonna stop the voters! Obviously, davis has shit for brains. The cost of the special recall election will be about $30 Million, so let's do the math: $30 Million (cost of the election to pull davis's sorry criminal ass out of office) divided by $39.4 Billion (the current amount of the state budget deficit caused by davis's malfeasance) equals 0.00076142131, meaning that the cost to remove davis is LESS than eight-hundredths of one percent of the amount of the financial mess that davis's ineptitude has wrought upon the citizens and taxpayers of California.
So, about which am I more hopping mad, the relatively insignificant cost to save the state or davis's multi-multi-billion dollar disaster for which he is still trying to stick it to California's taxpayers by attempting - again - to raise their taxes to cover his political putz? Yes, I am mad about having to spend the $30 Million for the special election; if gray davis really cares so much, as he claims (another typical democrat "we care about the children" lie), he could avoid this cost - and my anger - by resigning, but the frozen tit would fall off the wicked witch of the west in hell before that would happen, so I must be realistic. Personally, I am glad to, and would much rather, spend the $30 Million to get rid of scum-sucker davis, who blew California's multi-billion dollar surplus and has left that growing current $39.4 Billion deficit. gray davis is another fine and typical example of a democrat politician leaving poverty and destruction in his wake, further proof of the inefficacy of socialism and the ways of the neo-communists.
If you are a California citizen (you illegal aliens sucking on davis's pud don't count, because you are making the problem worse, and so should be shot) to whom davis's is sticking it to make himself look pretty, just ask yourself what you are more hopping mad about: the $30 Million or the $39.4 BILLION? Even you democrats should be able to do that math, notwithstanding davis's lack of gray matter.
Support the "Recall gray davis" effort today! Download and sign the petition now. Just as stupid people shouldn't be allowed to breed, bozo's shouldn't be allowed to govern, and gray davis is one hell of a big bozo! Let's get rid of this bozo NOW! Let's get rid of gray davis before he succeeds in giving California away to the illegal aliens - and making you pay for it!
SAVE YOUR STATE TODAY!
P.S.: If you need a refresher as to the worthlessness of gray davis's word, if you need to be reminded of just how big a liar he is, if you want to know just how much of a disastrous wreck gray davis has been and continues to be for California, be sure to check out the Shades of gray - Tracking Gov. gray davis' Campaign Promises & Goals page (note that it is not a POINT -- The Way site, FYI). You, too, can be armed with truth and know just how full of shit gray davis is and why he should be recalled and slammed into prison!

Happy Birthday, America, and Happy Independence Day to all, even to you idiot liberals (that's all of you liberals) who would not have the freedom to attempt to destroy America under the guise of "patriotism" if it were not for those who have given their lives and died for your freedom, something which you conveniently ignore and attempt to "politically correctly" remove from your revisionist "history." Without the foundation that has made our country what it is today, we would all live without freedom under the dictatorial thumb of some irrational dictator (such as Howard Dean).
OH! We're sorry - we forgot that this is what you selfish whacko liberal leftist neo-communist pigs want (as long as you can play the part of the politburo gods)!
Over my dead body, too! Yes, I would gladly KILL any and all of you in a heartbeat to preserve America, which would be an even better place if all of you were DEAD! Do any of you have the guts to take responsibility and commit yourselves to something greater than your cheap whine?
No, we didn't think so. Nonetheless, you would do well to study true history and learn how great our forefathers were so you could understand (those of you, if any, with IQs above room temperature) what weasels you are. Thanks to you, Truth even more easily points to itself! Do any of you whackos even remotely understand what Truth is?
No, we didn't think so, still.

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, Republican Senator from Tennessee, has just effectively thrown hundreds of thousands of votes away, votes that would have otherwise counted for George W. Bush in the upcoming 2004 Presidential election. He has also publicly shown some of the irrational convervatism for which Republicans have been known. Granted, not every Republican believes that they should be the ones to decide your moral values, and, thankfully, most Republicans have realized that this is not their place, especially inasmuch as the democrats have taken that spot for themselves. Unfortunately, a few of these politicians, whom the democrats refer to as "nazis," still exist, and Bill Frist is one of them. Given that the democrats are still subversively pushing racism, it is not surprising that a few Republicans are still pushing the idea that only their values are good enough for you!
Following the U.S. Supreme Court ruling last week effectively permitting consensual sodomy between gay citizens, Frist has decided that it is only OK for a man to stick his penis in an asshole if the asshole has a vagina, notwithstanding that asshole Hillary. (And to think that this guy is an M.D.; he must have been busy adulterously fornicating with some hole during anatomy class, for an anus is neither male nor female.) But this is not why rational people should be upset with him. We should, however, be on the lookout for anyone who wants to start monkeying around with the Constitution and Bill of Rights, especially when it is being done to allow discrimination against any citizen. Frist wants to add an amendment to the Bill of Rights that actually removes the right of gay citizens to their own privacy; he wants the right to privacy to only apply to married heterosexual couples. As justification, those who want to take your rights away by changing the Constitution claim that it is a "living document," which is just another bullshit cover for "let's change it to make it legal to screw this group or that." Frist hysterically claims that the Supreme Court decision threatens to make the American home a place where criminality is condoned. Think about it: That's just another "nazi" Republican way of saying that the government has the right to know everything that you do in the privacy of your home, regardless of whether you are straight, gay, single, married or fill in the blank; should that government be controlled by non-Republicans, a Constitutional amendment will ensure that those jack-booted "nazi" police can still come into your home for an examination - to ensure that no "criminality is condoned."
Frist had a particularly interesting comment, one which almost sounds like a typical democrat obfuscation: "I have this fear that this zone of privacy that we all want protected in our homes is gradually - or, I'm concerned about the potential for it gradually being encroached upon, where criminal activity within the home would in some way be condoned." Criminal activity such as what, Bill? He added, "I'm thinking of - whether it's prostitution or illegal commercial drug activity in the home - ...to have the courts come in, in this zone of privacy, and begin to define it gives me some concern." OK, let me make sure I understand this: It's not OK for the courts to "come into my home" and permit me to have privacy because Bill Frist is concerned that I might be having sex - anal or otherwise - with a prostitute or because I might be taking too much valium, a commercial drug activity, but it IS OK for Bill Frist and his gestapo to come in my home and decide my morals for me by taking away my right to privacy? Uh-huh. He went on, "I very much feel that marriage is a sacrament, and that sacrament should extend and can extend to that legal entity of a union between - what is traditionally, in our Western values, has been defined [sic] - as between a man and a woman. So, I would support the amendment" to permit marriage only between a human with a penis and another human with a vagina, and the hell with "equal rights." This sounds to POINT -- The Way like something bordering on government mandating church values, in violation of the Constitution.
Frist claims to respect the highest court in the land and their decision, but he thinks that citizens should not be allowed to decide privacy issues for themselves. "Generally, I think matters such as sodomy should be addressed by the state legislatures," he said, adding, "That's where those decisions - with local norms, the local mores - are being able to have their input in reflected. [sic] And that's where it should be decided, and not in the courts." Aside from implying that legislators should be able to override the Constitution at any local level, what he failed to explicitly say, but which he explicitly implied, is that the state legislatures should decide these issues, as long as their decisions match his values and expectations. Frist claims that he believes that "local norms, the local mores" are what are most important, but Frist is a LIAR! He does not put his money where his mouth is. (Actually, I don't want to know where his mouth has been!) For example, the citizens of California have legalized medicinal marijuana, but Frist's Republicans certainly aren't supporting that decision! How 'bout it, Bill? Suppose a state decided that you can only engage in any and all sexual behavior if you are gay? I'll bet anyone that Frist wouldn't support that "local norm."
Bill Frist is a bigot, but, instead of going after people of color, he's going after the 15%+ of the population that is gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgendered. Anything that is different, anything that you are incapable of understanding, anything that might show more LOVE than all the selfish divorced heteros could ever show must be bad, right, Bill? Attacking homosexuals is just about the last bastion of acceptable discrimination in this country, notwithstanding the court's continued support for, and encouragement of, racism. Frist, along with his fellow "nazis" such as Republican Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, are intent on continuing to hammer gays - and the rest of us - with his "nazi" norms and values, and the hell with "local."
Frist probably feels that this is the perfect time to change the Constitution to inflict his norms and mores on the rest of us, inasmuch as the Republicans feel that a second term for Mr. Bush is already a done deal, so "we won't need gays' votes." (Glad to know that gays are worth something to Frist!) But irrational comments such as Frist's, let alone his dangerous attempts to change the Constitution to add a "Bill of No Rights" section, will not sit well with gays or anyone else who is paying attention. Keep it up, Bill, and you can forget those votes, for gays will not be voting for Bush - or you! Frist's comments and support for taking away citizens' privacy rights borders on behavior we would only expect to see from the democrats.
Truth is that Bill Frist and his ilk are exactly the reason why the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights should remain entirely untouched and unchanged. Leave it alone and let it - and us - live!
