Re: Joanie
I just had to respond to her letter. How does she know he's godly? Because he said he was?
It has to be that, because you can not tell it by his actions.
Christian doctrine states you should treat others as you want to be treated.
I do not like being lied to, as he did with WMD, but that is what he did to the entire country.
And if you ask yourself, WWJD, I doubt very much if Jesus would tell you to bomb Iraq, kill civilians--and this was done pre-emptively, not in self defense.
My spin on GW's Christianity is--he bought a ranch just prior to the election, so he'd look like one of the simple folk & down to earth. He dressed in a fight suit, to show a macho image, and he put on his Christianity coat to get the right wing religious vote.I
It's just more PR.
His actions speak for themselves. And I didn't even mention: the record he holds for most executed inmates, (while he was governor). How many people did Jesus execute? As far as I know, Jesus was a man of peace.
Who told the rich to give all their wealth away and follow him? Not give tax breaks and contracts to your rich friends, at the expense of the poor. Everyone forgets what GW really is, a rich, oil man. You vote for a rich oil man, this is what you end up with.
And I'm tired of hearing, "would you rather have Saddam still in power?" This was not the reason given to get us into the war, this is just an excuse given after the fact to cover-up the lies told to get us into the war.
All those Christians out there ought to forget about concentrating on only the end times parts of the bible, but read some of what Jesus said. One in particular that comes to mind is "Blessed are the Peacemakers."
And yes, I do consider myself to be a Christian.

Thanks, Kay!

The country seems to have come full circle from Washington's declaration that he cannot tell a lie regarding the cherry tree to, well, The Bush administration.

Moore Film Title Angers Author
Ray Bradbury
Ray Bradbury is demanding an apology from filmmaker Michael Moore for lifting the title from his classic science-fiction novel "Fahrenheit 451" without permission and wants the new documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" to be renamed.
"He didn't ask my permission," Bradbury, 83, told The Associated Press on Friday. "That's not his novel, that's not his title, so he shouldn't have done it."
Bradbury, who hadn't seen the movie, said he called Moore's company six months ago to protest and was promised Moore would call back.
Bradbury, who is a registered political independent, said he would rather avoid litigation and is "hoping to settle this as two gentlemen, if he'll shake hands with me and give me back my book and title."
Ray Bradbury
WTF?
Avoid litigation?
It's not like Bradbury ever 'borrowed' any titles - well, let's see, there's
'I Sing The Body Electric',
from Walt Whitman's 'Leaves of Grass'.
Oh, gee, and that one's verbatim...

Marks 59th Birthday in Detention
Aung San Suu Kyi
Hundreds of Myanmar pro-democracy supporters gathered Saturday to mark detained opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi's 59th birthday as Washington led renewed calls for her to be freed "immediately and unconditionally".
More than 400 people from around the country converged on the Yangon headquarters of Aung San Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD) party, where a dawn ceremony saw monks offer prayers and receive alms prior to speeches by NLD representatives.
The Nobel peace laureate remains under house arrest since her detention more than one year ago and has now spent nearly nine of the past 15 years in some form of detention.

Interprets Navajo Sign Language
Coreen Barbone
Coreen Barbone couldn't help but notice the woman, her hands in a dance of motion. Or the boy. He just kept staring at those hands.
The woman who awed Barbone was an American Sign Language interpreter. She used her hands to shatter the silence of a world without sound. Barbone decided she wanted to do that, too.
Today, more than a decade later, Barbone indeed is an interpreter, the first American Indian to graduate from Santa Fe Community College's interpreting program, one of about 10 Indian interpreters in the country. She further distinguishes herself with her trilingual ability - English, Navajo and American Sign Language.
For a good read, Coreen Barbone

Painting on Show in London
Francis Bacon
A Francis Bacon painting that spent three decades in the vaults of an Iranian museum went on display in London for the first time Friday.
The 1968 triptych, "Two Figures Lying on a Bed with Attendants," shows two naked men lying on a bed in the central panel. On one side, they are being watched by a naked man in a chair with a flapping bird. On the other, they are being watched by a monkey and a seated man wearing a suit.
The triptych is on loan from Tehran's Museum of Contemporary Art to the Tate Britain gallery in central London, where it will be shown with other Bacon works for six months.
It is one of scores of original paintings and sculptures by masters such as Pablo Picasso, Paul Gauguin and Auguste Renoir that were ordered collected for the state of Iran by Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and his wife, Farah Diba, during the oil boom of the 1970s.

Exhibit Shows Early Advocates
Free Speech
Censorship and hatred of minorities are an old story all over the world, but a new exhibit at the Folger Shakespeare Library shows that free speech and tolerance are nothing new either.
There's a copy of a book Roger Williams published in Britain after he was convicted in Massachusetts of expressing "newe & dangerous opinions against the aucthoritie (authority) of magistrates" and was banished from the colony. The book deals with what he called "the bloody tenet of persecution for cause of conscience."
The exhibit includes an early edition of "The Merchant of Venice" that has the subtitle: "With the extreame crueltie of Shylocke the Iewe." It is unclear whether the subtitle was Shakespeare's.
The exhibit will be on view through Oct. 30. Admission is free.

In Memory
Jackie Paris
Jackie Paris, a jazz vocalist who toured with Charlie Parker and was said to be one of the favorite singers of Ella Fitzgerald and comedian Lenny Bruce, died Thursday. He was 79.
Paris died of complications from bone cancer, according to David Grausman, a friend.
Born Carlo Jackie Paris, he got his start as a child in vaudeville and worked as a singer and guitarist in the jazz clubs of 52nd Street in the 1940s. He served two years in the Army.
Paris worked with Lionel Hampton and Charles Mingus and was the first to sing the lyrics to Thelonious Monk's "Round Midnight."
Later, he taught master classes and gave private lessons while continuing to record and perform, singing as recently as March at the Jazz Standard in Manhattan.

'Danny Dark'
Daniel Croskery, the voice of the NBC television network, "Bewitched" and countless other clients, died Sunday. He was 65.

He left radio in 1965 and quickly developed a reputation as having a top commercial voice.
