Dean's Jesus talk is ringing false in the South

Moses' and 'bearing false witness' is indeed Exodus 20:16, but I guess I over-abbreviated my post.

Bearing fasle witness as a phrase does not have its origins in Proverbs, but rather with Moses receiving the 9th commandment from God. That was my first point.

Second point was about Solomon's wisdom going back to mankind's original perfect relationship with God -- in Genesis.

I can see how my post implied error. I'll be more precise in the future. ;-)

When someone saves your life and is the center of your life, then you don't just "talk" about HIM...Jesus is VITAL to me like blood is to my heart pumping - for Dean to try and "put on Jesus" is beyond an insult - but then, he'll have to face Jesus someday and that will be Dean's biggest problem...

Professing themselves to be wise

Just gotta ask yourself how much more of his Crap is his base going to take...

Discretionary spending growing at a rate 3 times faster than under Clinton (Over 10% growth per year)

$480 Billion deficits.

A $400 Billion (projected, actual costs will probably be closer to $4 trillion) over 10 years, brand spanking new entitlement program.

Campaign Finance Reform.

Billions in new Federal spending on Education.

Amnesty for 10 million+ Illegals (did the speech with the Mexican Gov't officials on stage make you want to puke as well?)

I wholeheartedly agree, but must point out that the general election is likely to be a somewhat more immediate problem for him even if it does pale in comparison.

BTW, I am not sure I follow the connection from my post to yours. I do not mind at all, but must admit that you seem to have thrown me a bit of a non-sequitor.

"he ain't from around here."

Thats the truth. The more he talks,,,the worse it gets.

I've already said on this forum that I have no intention of voting for Bush. At best he's Dem light. I do think however that his reelection is pretty much a done deal.

[nepdap]

Total agreement on both of your points -- we're on the same side here! :-)

[Cardini]

I am with you Arkie2.

As sick as it may be I am actually considering voting Democrap this time as GWB has proved that he is a 100 times more liberal than any demofilth.

So far his tax cut & excellent handling of the Iraq event are the only thing he has done that I agree with.

Just like Clinton he is selling out the American people for his own personal advancement. IMHO GWB is a truly evil person and even though I voted for him in 2000 it will not happen again.

[Arkie2]

You're definitely not with me. I wouldn't vote Democrat if someone were holding a gun to my head. It's either Libertarian or I won't be voting at all.

[Cardini]

No I am still with you. I would rather be dead than a Democrap.

Just my anger with GWB spilling over.

Best of Luck!

Catholics are exempt! Didn't you know?...*Grins*

Am still waiting to hear how Dean contemplated the Seminary, and started healing early on in life.

The problem with most of the Democratic candidates is that they have reviled A belief in God, or those that choose to follow God rather than the almighty government for an awful long time, and their getting in touch with their "Jesus" side is sounding pretty hollow.

Dean must be a "Metro-man".

"As soon as John Q Southern Voter steps into the booth and contemplates "President Clark" he/she will think Democrat but vote Republican. Even Arkansans will vote Bush over Wesley unless they are true democrats, meaning Govt supported leeches." If bush keeps giving away Southern jobs to third world countries and continues his policy of open (illegal) immigration, then John Q Southerner won't be voting at all, let alone for bush.

you sound like a liberal. blame others.

Jesus said:

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. -- Matthew 7:22-23

"misunderestimate"

Is that really a word now?

[kinghorse]

Oh and I would probably have not enjoyed my 17 year (and counting) run with the company I'm at without NAFTA. You lose jobs, you gain jobs. The jobs you lose are low paying dead end ones and the jobs you gain are high end ones. We have a company down in Mesco selling refinery equipment like there's no tomorrow. If those folks didn't have a demand for oil there wouldn't be an expansion going on. There's a demand for oil because they are working and consuming.

A rising tide lifts all boats.

NAFTA was smart thinking and free trade in general is smart thinking. Painful for some to be sure but the majority gain.

[kinghorse]

it's a play on Bush-isms.
