Bush is getting crucified like Jesus was crucified

[cynatnite]

My RW mother told me that just a few minutes ago. The conversation started out with Nixon since I just started reading John Dean's book and she said that all people can do is trash bush all the time. She said no one can say anything good about him.

I told her there wasn't much good when it came to the WH and his policies. She insists that some of the amendments of the patriot act are things the govt could always do. It was such RW drivel that I was about ready to :banghead:

2. Like Jesus?

Uh last time I looked Bush wasn't poor, didn't actually follow his own "teachings", and he's not dying on a cross in enormous pain.

[NVMojo]

3. the difference is Jesus told the truth, Bush is a rich man's liar!

[PurityOfEssence]

25. Jesus woulda been fine if he just hadn't messed with Religion Incorporated

Once he fucked with the moneychangers, he was a dead man.

As we all know, Bush is PART of Religion, Incorporated; he's running with the thugs who use guesses, superstitions and belief to keep the poor in place and fleece 'em good and proper.

[SammyWinstonJack]

57. Oh! Very good reply!

:applause:

[spanone]

4. It's blasphemy to compare bush* to Jesus.

[Vickers]

5. Tell her Bush would send a poor person to be crucified in his place.

That's what he did during Vietnam.

[BeHereNow]

6. You might want to point out to her...

that many of the "good 'Christian' Germans" thought the same
about Hitler.
As a matter of fact, so much so that they condoned
the murder/execution of other German Christians who
criticized Hitler.
Also, ask your mother to read 1 John:4 and find just one
documentation of GW meeting the criteria for
discerning a True Christian from the false spirit of the anti-christ.
It may change her views about who GW is really working for
as he far better fits the false spirit discernment check list
as given by the word of God.

7. Sir, I've met Jesus and you sir are no Jesus

Someone needs to alert the WH :eyes:

[ChiciB1]

8. Stubbornness Is Not Intellectually Accepted!

I have wondered internally and OUT LOUD, what it is that keeps people in the "Boy King's" corner! I have come to realize that it's a personal thing.

Most people simply can't admit they made a MISTAKE!!

[cynatnite]

13. You nailed it

I've asked her that. It just amazes me that her and others refuse to acknowledge that bush/cheney have hurt this country. It's like they've got their heads stuck in their bibles and refuse to come out.

My mom has never been one to admit a mistake at all. That always weirds me out because this regime won't admit it either.

[ChiciB1]

22. Regime, Gestapo....

It's a crying SHAME that our country has been sold to the highest bidder.

I don't know your age, but I'm a "boomer" who has always felt that you can get up in the morning "hoping" to LEARN something new!! I thank whoever it was that gave me that gift!!!

Change isn't a problem. Isn't that what EVERY politician talks about in a campaign, yet every time it's predictable as to what will happen???? Had ANYONE who voted for "the corrupt ones" done an ounce of research, this guy would be toast!

Even so, I still maintain that he perpetrated ELECTION FRAUD TWICE!!!

[mitchum]

9. Well, I've got some extra nails out in the car...

[mopaul]

10. bush is more like jesus, or hitler,...hhhmmmm, i just can't decide

it's a tough call

[Bellamia]

15. Tough call?

Surely you jest!

[Imagevision]

58. If the US. had any media backbone - Bush would be impeached!

high crimes - misdemeanors? Bush is responsible for ober 100,000 deaths not including our own to fight a phoney war for Oil.

[Karmadillo]

11. Wrong. Jesus was in the company of only two criminals at the time of his

crucifixion.

[havocmom]

16. ^ding ding ding^ We have a winner! ^

:thumbsup:

[mitchum]

17. LMAO!!!!

my god, that's good :)

[marbuc]

12. My mother is RW also

so I feel your pain. I (and others) have managed to work her to the point where she doesn't like GW Bush, or the socially conservative, fiscally wreckless policies of his administration. She does still like Rush, so go figure.

[FreedomAngel82]

23. Suggestion for your mother

Maybe instead of her listening to Rush turn her onto Al Franken or someone like that. :shrug: Find out why she likes Rush and find someone who is on a left-leaning station who is complete opposite and try to get her to listen. :shrug: My mother used to be rightwing but I've turned her against them as well. ;)

[marbuc]

28. Great suggestion.

I'm a big fan of Al Franken's show. I don't think she'd go for it. By the way, does anyone know why Randi Rhodes disses him all the time? This really irritates me, for I like Randi's show, but Al is better in my opinion.

[annabanana]

47. She's been the radio professional for decades...

He's been doing it just since AAR started, he's the most famous "name" and probably has the biggest salary... so she wonders "where's the justice?" I'll bet.. IMHO she's the better radio person.

[marbuc]

50. She may be the better radio person

by virture of her experience, but that's no excuse to insult him. Blame AAR, but don't disrespect a "team mate" is all I'm saying. Though I like listening to her, I do think Al has a better show.

Randi rants a bit much for my tastes, and takes too many calls. She also reaches on some of the conspiracy theories she indulges. Her personality gets to me from time to time. Al has great guests, his politics are more in line with mine, and I like the format of his show.

[maveric]

14. The Passion of the "W". At theaters near you.

I cant wait tillthe MSM starts comparing bu$h's torment to that of JC.
Its coming!

[oldcoot]

18. Isn't this blasphemy?

Does she believe that Bush has never committed a sin his entire life? Does she believe that it is acceptable to compare a sinner to Jesus Christ who was sinless?

[DoYouEverWonder]

19. Maybe next time you see her

you could give her this card for me?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

20. No, if he were, there'd be nails sticking out of his feet and wrists. And

blood. And he'd have trouble breathing.

24. Did Jesus promote killing Muslims for economic reasons?

I don't think so...

[Straight Shooter]

26. For some reason I am really, really disgusted by that comment.

I'm not religious, but Jesus preached love for one another, turning the other cheek, he drove the money-changers from the Temple, despised the Pharisees for their hypocrisy, and he never started a war (although many have been started in his name).

There is a divine nature of Christ in the circumstances of his conception and birth, the life he led, the miracles he performed, and how he eventually personally suffered greatly, not just physically, but emotionally and mentally to save humanity. To elevate bush to the level of Christ is just absolutely revolting.

Don't take it personally, please, I'm just ranting.

[BeHereNow]

27. Better get used to it-

I agree with you completely, but the fact is,
that is EXACTLY the comparison these freaks are
making, and trust me when I tell you,
it has only JUST begun.
Want to know the irony of it all?
If the so called "Christians" of the evangelical ilk
could actually read and humble themselves
to the santification of God's promised discernment
for Christians, they would know that the bible says this
would happen.
They, who deem themselves so pure, are the
filthiest among us.
They are wallowing in the feces of the AC and
think themselves "saved."
Boy, are they in for a surprise...
BHN

[Straight Shooter]

30. Ugh. I'll never get used to it.

I'm thinking of making a bumper sticker:

God is a conservative.
Jesus is a liberal.
That explains the crucifixion

If they start making references to crucifixion vis-a-vis bush and Christ, I think it will truly nauseate the real Christians. This is, as the above poster noted, blasphemy.

Thanks for the scripture references. I haven't read the Bible in years.

[BeHereNow]

34. Oh trust me, the True Christians are vomiting daily.

It sickens and saddens us all to see the deceived
wallowing in pig shit thinking it is holy water.
And their scripture twisting to meet a hate mongering agenda?
Don't get me started...
BHN

[cynatnite]

29. Attacking bush is attacking christianity

I called her back and spoke with her a little more and it hit me that she equates as attack on shrub as being one on her faith. She can't separate the two.

It makes sense as to why the neocon's got into bed with these people. They knew they'd get their most ardent supporters who would see it like this.

[salin]

35. is there something superior about American Christians?

Ask her this. Because devout Christians in other countries do not equate Bush to Christ, nor do they see his policies as promoting Christ or Christianity. Or is there something in the Bible that makes it and the religion unique only to Americans in 2005? If so, point that the place that says that as I haven't read it nor have ever heard reference to it.

[BeHereNow]

37. Oh yes, haven't you heard?

AMERICAN Christians are the only ones who count.
that is because GAWD appointed George to lead them.
To hell with everyone else, including the Iraqi Christian
civilians that have been killed by our bombs.
They weren't REALLY part of the body of Christ you see.
They were BROWN people.
GAWD as they personally know him only likes
fat, pasty, white and rich Christians that live here in
the United States of Fascism.

38. I pray for our collective souls

[BeHereNow]

39. I hear ya sister-

When the mob of pig-shit wallowers turns on
the church for not going along with their
false doctrine, it's not going to be pretty.
I am not afraid, not looking forward to it,
but ultimately, not afraid of them-
just disgusted and sickened by them.

BHN

[jmm]

31. Yet leaders from his own faith feel his policies are

incompatible with the teachings of Christ :shrug:.

[salin]

32. that is blasphamous

I would call her on that alone - ask her if she is really putting a politician in the same league as Jesus Christ. And if she is - isn't that idolotry. Or is she suggesting Bush is "the second coming" and if so could it be that he is instead the anti-christ, who at first appears to many as the savior himself?

Plant those seeds in her mind. At least if nothing else by calling her on that comparison - she won't make it around you anymore.

45. Dosent Howard Dean have more in common with jesus than the shrub?

Wasn't Jesus a Jewish doctor who shook up the conservatives of his time?

[LightningFlash]

46. What a lunatic....

:crazy:

[pacifictiger]

48. Tell your mom

he acts more like Judas, betraying the message of Jesus for a few sheckles of silver.
Maybe he'll find himself with a rope around his neck and be reviled throughout history too.

[LightningFlash]

49. He doesn't do the work of Jesus and the world knows it. n/t

[Lone_Wolf]

51. Tell her that Christ is the Anti-Bush...

Rightwingers seem to hate that...

[followthemoney]

52. I'll feel sorry for him when he can whistle through the holes in his hands

[Poiuyt]

53. I don't think so...show her this:

[NinetySix]

54. Hooray for Peter Pumpkinhead!

[SammyWinstonJack]

55. The reason no one can say anything good about bu$h** is because

there is nothing good to say about the lying murdering election stealing illegal war mongering war profiteering POS LOSER!

[Tinoire]

56. Time to pierce his side with a spear and see if he rises in 3 days. n/t

[Imagevision]

59. So, Bush is a classic example of being "born again"? meaning he was

worse off before? I compare Bush to someone like Manson. Just go and kill.

[Individualist]

60. Tell her to pray and beg God for forgiveness

for saying such a blasphemous thing.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

61. If your mom thinks everybody is talking trash about Bush....

...that's a good thing, isn't it? :-)

[Corgigal]

62. If she thinks Bush is being crucified

then explain to me what happened to those women in Iraq yesterday?

[mitchum]

63. Sorry, but your mom is fucking nuts

you have my sympathy

64. I love my mom very much, but I do think you're right n/t
