Thanks so much for the immigrant family report. I am in despair over what you’ve reported, what Scarecrow reports today, what is in Newsweek today, (vs. what was really anticipated in the Senate hearings on the 1-2 year Petreaus’ appointment as head of “surge” activity). There is so much lieing across the
board on everything that matters to me about
reasonable morality, much less denial of real Christian values. I find so little that has any real value or basis for hope.

Thanks for your always upholding visions for moral integiry.

Bless you.

What in the world will I think about then?

Besides not being there gave others a chance to step up for Jane and FDL. And likewise all these over welming socio/political issues. gotta trust those who can do, will do. And in fact are doing. Don’t be so hard on yourself.

So in order to prevent burn out we must give ourselves permission to not be all things, to all people ALL the time..

and the beauty part is ..its all turning out just fine. i second TSF..yay for the turner in lady !!!!

707!!!

proudprogressive @ 231 And Egregious, thanks for all the risk taking you do as well. Its people like you who do empower so many of us, to do what we can.
((((FDL)))

Well that’s pretty timely. I’m sitting here feeling glum that I didn’t go into court today, I might have spared her the wallet/phone thing. And I don’t think I should drive emptywheel from the airport to downtown at midnight. Instead I am working on my Russia stuff.

Where are my priorities??????

Don’t worry, someone will turn them in at the Lost and Found.

Nothing happening, power went out in media room & jury room (though it’s on in other parts of the courthouse). Media room with lots of computers looks spooky but cool.

I’m coming in on the last flight into Dulles–I’ll get in at around midnight. You comfortable leaving the door open and trusting the virtual poodles? Or do you want to leave keys out?

Yeah emptywheel! No poodles, just me. I took the train. I’ll be there…

Some nice woman just turned my wallet in, so I’ve got my cell phone back. Whew. I felt really cut off there for a bit.

*******

Oh YAY!!!!!

Your cel phone fits in yr wallet?
Very petite. I approve.

I thot I had the smallest phone in existence.

How do the people in charge dare call themselves Christian?

That’s a very good question. An even better question is how do the people who “call themselves Christian” rationalize electing them?

Because very few people who call themselves Christians, are. What they are is christianists, they get their “values” from people like Jerry Falwell and Ted Haggard, and what they spew has little if anything to do with Christ.

Mostly because their religiosity can disguise the fact most of them are morally and spiritually bankrupt.
