“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!

Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Cor 6: 9-10

While Phil Robertson sits in a duck blind worrying if he brought enough shells and happy, happy, happy the Marxists are once again showing they are angry, angry, angry. The homosexual Gestapo which is simply another arm of the thought nazis overplayed their hand and is attempting another virtual assassination. The Stalinists of the 30’s had to waste their time and lead with firing squads when the new thought enforcers simply have to use their media might to line their victims up in a virtual firing squad. They isolate their targets and virtually destroy their lives to warn the rest of the thought dissidents of what could happen to them if they question groupthought.

Marxism cannot win in the real world on an even playing field so for the past fifty years they have created a mine field for the opposition to maneuver. They have created the Three Pillars of propaganda (media, academia and the DNC) to promote their agenda while eliminating opposing thought. They have thug agenda groups such as environmentalists, feminists, racists and homosexualists to help silence any varying thought with feigned outrage and disgust. The media amplifies that outrage with their professional executioners so whenever someone such as Phil speaks the truth he is put in front of their triggers and labeled a hater to be a public outcast. His opinions are then turned into hate speech to be dismissed and ignored in the battle of ideas. This allows the agenda to continue without having to actually discuss any of the pros and cons.

What Phil was really guilty of was being a Christian and praying openly on a TV show and connecting with the American people. He openly made fun of Marxists and the liberal agenda which is an unforgivable sin to the liberal cult. Nobody in America is allowed to speak sacrilege against the protected groups or the religious tenets of the cult, one being you must worship homosexuals and every other Marxist group as if they were saints. When Phil questioned why any man would want to have anal sex he spoke an unforgivable sin and had to be destroyed since this was not an argument they wanted to dibate on the merits.

The last thing the liberal agenda wants to do is get into a moral argument like why are they promoting homosexuality so exhaustingly. They have to paint the homosexual man as a victim of a homophobic society who simply wants to live his life with one lover like any heterosexual couple. This of course is the exception to the rule of the 2% who make up the male homosexual community. The average homosexual has anywhere from dozens to hundreds of partners a year since it is more of a sexual addiction than a lifestyle. This leads to thousands times higher levels of STD exposure and diseases than you find in the Christian hetero society and especially those living in a stable marriage lifestyle.

Male homosexuals have multiple times more instances of gonorrhea, mono, hepatitis C, HIV, drug addiction and a 250% greater chance of committing suicide. The agenda claims the suicides are caused by America disapproval when it is really caused by the depression of living an extremely addictive life and the inability to break out. Some studies have shown the male homosexual has a 20 year shorter lifespan due to the unhealthiness of anal sex. If it were not a sainted PC lifestyle it would be shunned like tobacco, but Marxism promotes it for the agenda.

If Americans were to begin to question whether the homosexual agenda was really about protecting the right to marriage or was it a destructive or sinful lifestyle, then the rest of the agenda could be questioned. That is when the GLAAD goonsquad stepped in and feigned their outrage and pretended they were being discriminated by Phil. They had to shut this discussion down immediately or the entire media homo façade could fall apart. What if people questioned the health aspects of the homosexual lifestyle and began investigating the truth of what their lifestyle looked like? What if they weren’t all these thirty to forty-five year old professionals living with their significant other, but were these victims of sexual abuse who were being used and abused by a nightclub scene which continued that abuse? What if they showed those results in the STD wards of the hospitals and the sicknesses which are chronic in that very small group of individuals and people began questioning the promotion of this unhealthy activity, what then?

The reason the homosexual agenda is being promoted is to keep the soccer moms voting for Marxists. They promote the façade of happy marriages in the homosexual community to make it appear that they need a bigger gummit to dictate their protection. This is done through feminism, the war on women, racism, student loans and the war against business to keep women voting for them. Women are very susceptible to wanting everybody to be liked and getting warm feelings from being good girls. Marxists are very good at pulling those strings and have used it to manipulate their votes for years inside the liberal cult. For a woman to be a good person she must walk lockstep with the victimhood agenda and vote Dem. This is exactly why they promote it and why they have set up thug groups like GLAAD, NOW and others to enforce their fundamentalist doctrine and keeping women in line.

Duck Dynasty and especially Phil Robertson with their growing popularity became an extreme threat to the religion of Marxism. With his unwavering belief in God and traditional American values he was the biggest danger in the last twenty years. He and his family not only enjoyed hunting, fishing and praying they made fun of yuppies and liberals while having fun. Having fun is a sin to the agenda. They reminded people of what was right about America before all of the liberal guilt trips and it was responding beyond anyone’s expectations which terrified the Three Pillars. He had to be destroyed so he was put in front of the virtual firing squad to be made an example.

Phil hit a nerve in America and was bringing out feelings they hadn’t had in a long time. His love of the traditional family and his unflinching belief in Jesus Christ went against the atheistic religion of moral relativism and fundamental tolerance. He had to be stopped since his growing popularity was a threat to their power and control. There is no way to actually argue the health issues or lifestyle risks so they had to go to the homophobe/hater card. If they win this one it will take a giant step toward eliminating any opposition to their religion and mounting one more bearded head on their media wall. It appears America may not be ready to have another good old boy crucified for simply saying something every man has said in the woods a hundred times in their life since the dawn of time. We are watching one of the oldest battles of mankind being fought between the most powerful virtual armies ever devised and a family of Rednecks. Millions of Americans are pulling for the Louisiana Rednecks.

Pray America is Waking

Excellent essay, Bray!

How does a sexual preference, a preference that should remain private and confidential for the person that has it, evolve into a political matter and a civil right?

Is it not enough that they have the right to such a preference, that they need to publically whip the rest of it, even if it is abhorrent to us? Are we not allowed to have likes and DISLIKES when it comes to matters of private preference?

Or are we forced to admire and even desire another man’s preferences when it comes to such matters?

We have the RIGHT to be “turned off” by homosexuality, as much as they have the “right” to be “turned on” by it.

While I certainly agree with the substance of today’s rant, bray, I do think we have to consider that the “Duck Dynasty” brought all this upon themselves in exchange for the additional riches and fame that can come with deals with the devil.

Of all people, one would assume that Phil Robertson would understand that when you lay down with dogs (A&E, GQ, Pravda, NKVD, KGB, Stasi, DNC, etc.) you are likely coming up with fleas.

No one making millions on the A&E network is an entirely trustworthy martyr to the “cause,” no matter how righteous.

Phil slouched his way toward Gommorah and got what ya git. The side of the bottle lists the side-effects. Either he didn’t read them, or didn’t care.

Good morning, thanks for this thread all year long, and Merry Christmas to everybody. My son came in for the week from Ohio, so I probably won’t watch any of the shows. Good timing, because I can get him to go out with the snowblower!

My biggest concern about Marxism is the economic aspect of that belief. The result during the 20th Century has been disastrous, as any elderly survivor of the former Soviet Union under Stalin between 1928 and 1953 or China under Mao between 1949 and 1976 can testify to.

In their zeal for "equality," the result may have been as many as 100-plus million dead from the mass shootings, labor camps, deliberate famine and forced exile imposed by Communist authorities. Imagine the Nazi Holocaust, but essentially completely unfettered and happening on a much longer time scale.

Looking at the lineup, and the sudden media “obsession” with the dead-end eavesdropping story and what the Duck Dynasty patriarch thinks, I sense that the push is on to distract from the staggering arrival of Obamacare in the lives of the American people.

Will our side allow them to “change the subject?”

We always do.

We are just weeks away from the institution in our bureaucracy of death panels, bodies of cronies and apparatchik that will make political decisions as to who lives and who dies, but we are going to be told that our phone number showing up in a roll call of 70 trillion phone calls is the REAL threat.

And most everybody is gonna agree.

They are loading us on the cattle cars and for some reason we still think we are boarding a flight to the Bahamas.

What??? Where is the GLAAD rep, who could crow about the inordinate clout of less than 2% of the population in its ability to browbeat the other 98% into submission? You’d think the Left would be tickled pink to have these whiners highlighted in the Sunday shows after their latest win.

Could it be that they are recognizing the “bridge too far” and the mounting backlash of disgust and rebellion sweeping the nation? Nah.

Merry Christmas AB, all......thank you so much for doing this thread AB.

Singing at mass this morning, will return later.

Been a spectacular week....sang at a local retirement home with the choir, had a party for the choir at my house, enjoyed a wonderful evening with my nieces last night.

Will be singing at the “midnight” mass Christmas Eve.

It’s been a bittersweet Christmas season this year, filled with good wishes and the wonderful people I choose to be in my life, my family, my wonderful daughter and that most precious only granddaughter.

As a result of my political maneuverings you should smile, I can’t go anywhere without somebody recognizing me, either as Sister Pat, the lady on TV about the barking dogs, the newspaper lady who made Sussex county re-do their entire property dispute procedures.

BTW, the county attorney who had to re-do all that stuff did give me a copy of his fabulouso book all about Sussex county and life as a farmer before the city folk discovered it. He is my granddaughter’s teacher’s father and indeed he did tell his daughter about me. Her teacher, it would turn out, was looking for a child named Kaitlyn Fish.

Heh.

Anyway, he’s very handsome, just throwing it out there, he signed my hard-cover beautiful coffee table book and, hmmmm, I am going to be interviewing him in the next few weeks.

;)

Hey, man this guy has to have all the scoop....I’m jus’ sayin’.

Hoping you all have a good Christmas. Like I said, sometimes I grieve....it’s hard to avoid it during this festive season. Billy did so love Christmas. But he would have wanted me to be happy; Billy, like all good men in America, devoted himself to making ME happy.

He provided for me and he was Conservative to the right of Ghengis Khan. Gotta love that.

As for 2014-consider that the year that Obama goes down, not in flames, but slides slowly to obscurity and failure.

Oh no he won’t be impeached, America will never impeach its first black president.

There are many, many artful, thoughtful qualified black people that could have ascended to the presidency and did a fine, fine job, would have left that office with a glory while Obama made it a mockery. West, Rice, the doctor Ben...forget last name. Lots of qualified black people.

We know it’s not about race though they keep saying it. Obama was a damn bad choice, what were they thinking. and by indulging that doofus the Democrats made themselves look bad.

2014 is when the myth explodes and Obama is put on airplanes to spend the next three years travelling the world and bowing to dictators.

I encourage all to enjoy the brilliance of stretch David Gregory on MTP...it may be one our last chances as he's rumored to be getting axed soon. Maybe the show itself, but I doubt they'd kill TV's longest running show for low ratings.

Oh, woe is me.

FNS

Is FNS desperate to find experts? Huckabee — the Obamacare expert?

==

I doubt the Sunday morning talkies will have much in the way of hard news, barring some major catastrophe. The next few weeks will be the end-of-the-year wrap up.

==

Quack Quack!

The Duck Dynasty issue has managed to sideline discussions about the Obamacare/Healthcare.gov problems. The healthcare.gov website still has major problems, but it would appear that A&E has even bigger problems — if one weighs the amount of news coverage each got.

==

Irony of the week:

If you used your debit or credit card in a Target store since Thanksgiving, your identity may have been stolen.

Ironically, if you used your card via the Target website, it was safe.

Healthcare.gov use is susceptible to identity theft. Maybe they should have hired the Target website team.

==

Wallace: Are you gonna run? Is the chance 50-50?

Huckabee: Friends and associates are begging me to run, but I haven’t decided yet.

Stretch over there on MTP has lately been opening with his panel to lead the show. Then political newsies. So far it's a total hodge podge. Now Lagarde of the IMF speaking her irrelevancies.

On the opening panel, E.J. Dionne insisted 2011 was a worse year for Obie than 2013. Damn that WH water pail must get gettin' heavy. (2011 sequester was his reason) LOL.

My overall view of the Duck Dynasty issue: it is a faux issue.

Supposedly, the GQ article came out several months ago.

A&E waited until the season 2 episodes were already filmed.

A&E is running multiple marathons of the first season.

Ca-ching! Ca-ching!

A&E and GQ are laughing all the way to the bank.

Supposedly, the marathon viewership has dropped, but the Season 2 opener scheduled for early next year will probably see a massive viewership.

A&E and GQ couldn’t afford to buy the amount of free coverage both have gotten as a result of the DD situation.

[Disclaimer: I watched about 2 minutes of one episode a few weeks ago. It didn’t grab my attention. I haven’t watched it since and probably won’t. Talkie-reality-fauxreality programs just do not interest me.]

The only difference between E.J. Dionne and Chris Matthews is that Matthews publicly admitted his tingly leg. E.J. Dionne often has a tingle going up his leg over Obama, but he just doesn’t speak about it.

E.J. Dionne , Obama Fanboy Club, member number 3.
