Yep. A picture is often truly worth a thousand words.

The web is both good and bad. But the creativity of some on the web is amazing. Photoshop opened lots of doors. And at the same time twisted lots of other perspectives.

“Just goes to show that faith in Jesus doesn’t automatically make you rational.”

Just because these people go to church doesn’t mean they have faith in Jesus. A lot of the black churches are like Rev. Wright’s “God-damn-America”’s church, i.e, a political meeting place.

“He is one of these types that honestly believe their grift is going to save the world.”

I don’t believe he is under that delusion, or that his intentions are noble in any way. It’s all about the power which ultimately results in more wealth.

He is one of these types that honestly believe their grift is going to save the world. Everything they do is stupid and insane, but they have messianic delusions.

Thomas Sowell described him and his ilk in “The Vision of the Annointed.”

Very True!

Of course, there are many folks who have faith in Jesus AS THEY KNOW HIM (i.e., similar to the real Jesus, but not quite accurate).

That might be what's taught in most of the churches in the world today.

"the one-time Democratic sensation"

That was during his first 15 minutes of fame. What has he done for Texas lately?

I’ve seen as many of those bumper stickers as Puto signs around my area of Texas.

He went to a church? Did he get lost and find himself there?

“O'Rourke comes from a politically prominent family in El Paso. His father was the county Judge”

Probably why his burglary and DUI charges were dismissed.

From the beginning in Texas (1836) there were Tejanos and Anglos. Both at the Alamo and San Jacinto. (there were also a few black people) As today there are many families intermarried between Hispanic and Anglo families. In Texas and New Mexico, married across the US/MX border is very common. Allows to own property on both sides of border.

Texas is not about race. Read my tagline.

It is still true. (except in parts of Austin, Houston, San Antonio and small pockets in DFW.)

Greater Mt. Zion Church should lose its tax exemption for this.

Surely, they are at the top of the list of one of those 87,000 new IRS agents...

County Judge is a misnomer that is a uniquely TX term for what other states call a County Commissioner. Very politically powerful, to be sure, but not one who holds courtroom trials. Think roads and other public works.

Probably more than in decades past, and all militantly liberal.

The first question on this church’s website under “About us” is “where do I park”

Whatever happened to that Separation of Church and State thing liberals always harp about?

Beto has nothing better to do than to run for office and lose.
