The “new” demos just want to fight, destroy their enemy’s, spit on soldiers, deface our monuments, keep people victimes, etc., and those that say they aren’t like that, support by omission those actions. You can tell by their DNC talking point posts.

You’ve nailed just about every right-wing caricature of the left, save maybe flag burning.

You’re wrong of course, but by the looks of your post you won’t be convinced otherwise.

Thank you for posting this, Bryan, and gathering all the information together. You nailed it with the phrase, “the left loves the sin but hates the sinner.” I thought the JunkYardBlog post, Backfire and redemption, was also excellent.

If I could add a little clarity, or at least a little more information, about Mary Magdalene. Luke records the story of the woman who was a sinner (most think a prostitute) in Luke 7:36-50. Luke doesn’t name her, and the story is a great contrast between the humble, repentant immoral woman and sanctimonious, self-righteous Simon.

Mary Magdalene is mentioned in the next chapter in verse 2 as having been delivered of seven demons. I did some reading this afternoon and one author said that if the two were the same person Luke probably would have named the woman in chapter seven. He was a careful writer.

In his gospel in chapter 12, John states that the anointing of Jesus shortly before His death occurred in Bethany. This is the town of the sisters, Martha and Mary, and their brother, Lazarus, whom Jesus had recently raised from the dead (recorded in chapter 11). In John 12, he mentions Martha, Lazarus and then Mary. Because of this it seems that this Mary who anointed Jesus is their sister, Mary of Bethany.

That passage from Corinthians is one of my favorites. I never get tired of grace and forgiveness.

And for giving you the opportunity to be so virtuous, you’re completely welcome!

;^)

But Bryan, your virtue is nothing, if you don’t expose all your skeletons to us, in order to be awarded the “Virtuous Man of HA”. We are your CPAC :)

(except for the ones who keep telling me I’m eeeeevil for my political affiliation.)

SouthernDem on March 8, 2007 at 5:01 PM

SD, as an adult, you, and us, are free to affiliate in any which way we choose. Those who’d tell you otherwise are dead wrong. I wrote to you before on HA – it’s an honor and a privilege to have a true Kennediesque/Trumanian Democrat here. We don’t have to agree all the time either. Regards,

Someone named Siddhearta (have no idea who this person is) sent me a YouTube video about Marine Cpl. Matt Sanchez. Marine Cpl. Matt Sanchez was recently honored at CPAC with the Jeanne Kirpatrick Academic Freedom Award. Seems like the moonbats are at i…

Sounds good now, but wait till I sober up.

right2bright on March 8, 2007 at 5:49 PM

High praise indeed!

For our friends on the left who will tar the entire conservative movement over the past of one man

You called that one right. The left is famous for forgiving people who support the left and smear the left, and they are notorious for attacking any right winger the left thinks is easy prey, just like they are doing here to this man. This is just another ttempt to smear someone the left feels is a threat. I mean, what if this man runs for office some day? HE’S A REPUBLICAN, so we need to nip this in the bud befor it can grow so lets smear him all we can. BUSH WAS BUSTED FOR POTY IN THE SEVENTIES! HE”S NOT W

Only a leftist goes back on their word, and then thanks themselves (with pride) for being a liar.

Pretty much explains a leftist thought process.

So I remain confused, but the scope of my confusion has expanded…
honora on March 8, 2007 at 3:14 PM

honora,
If I was confused about law, I wouldn’t go to Wikipedia. “Reliable” isn’t quite the word to describe that odd repository of a mish-mash of fact and boffo opinion.

SouthernDem on March 8, 2007 at 5:01 PM

Your not evil, not you, we just don’t want someone so nice as you to hang around those bad influences.

When I speak of Democrats, I speak of the “new” democrats. I consider you a follower of the original democrats, the JFK kind. The ones that were working for a better nation, better life, better government. Not one that wants to keep people uneducated, biggoted, or full of hate for our leaders.

The “new” demos just want to fight, destroy their enemy’s, spit on soldiers, deface our monuments, keep people victimes, etc., and those that say they aren’t like that, support by omission those actions. You can tell by their DNC talking point posts.

You are not one of them. Others that post, are.

My respect to you.

I remember that too, even before I posted in response to her. Let’s just say that I was being…forgiving.

Bryan on March 8, 2007 at 5:12 PM

Wait a minute Bryan, I remember when Honora was taken apart for her, well let’s just say “wrong” statements…and she swore she would never post on one of your threads again.

I remember that too, even before I posted in response to her. Let’s just say that I was being…forgiving.

Where is that famous RW dedication to taking responsibility for one’s actions?

honora

What “actions” does he need to take responsibility for? Consensual, legal sex? So what? This is not an issue the left should even care about, not to mention the right. But I guess people take any opening for attack, eh? I have to say I’m with the Right on this one (except for the ones who keep telling me I’m eeeeevil for my political affiliation.)

A promise is a promise…except when a liberal makes it.

The understatement of the year.

It’s only March, keep your powder dry.
