This never gets discussed except amongst us filthy hippies, but look who’s in the gang propping up this cult-leading self-proclaimed messiah (they’re all very naughty boys):
This month, the Reverend Sun Myung Moon went to Washington to introduce As a Peace-Loving Global Citizen, his autobiography that, according to the Moon-owned Washington Times, “recounts the joys and challenges, the teachable moments and the monumental experiences of his life – much of it spent as a spiritual leader”.
The newspaper reported that Moon received “congratulatory greetings” from Senator Joe Lieberman, former secretary of state Alexander Haig and former president George H W Bush, “hand-delivered by his son Neil Bush”.
How many questions has Obama had about Jeremiah Wright (let alone any black person with an opinion)?
Yet, nobody in the media ever asks someone like Joe Lieberman why he, as an orthodox Jew, kisses the ass of a man who says he’s the new Jesus?

Never let it be said that Joe Lieberman doesn’t cover all of his bases. Just wish the DEMs could figure out that he’s not on our team.
Good morning, pups. It’s the Pasty Little Putz and Prof. Krugman today. In “Three’s Company” the Pasty Little Putz says the third-party candidates have injected real substance into the New Jersey and New York races. It’s a shame that this doesn’t happen more often. Yeah. It’s a shame that more ideologically pure tea party whackaloons don’t run… Prof. Krugman, in “Too Little of a Good Thing,” says the Obama stimulus plan is helping, but it not nearly enough. Unless something changes, high unemployment will continue for years to come.
Here they are.
The coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready, and the biscuits are out of the oven. Let’s not forget that Moon was crowned and declared himself the new Messiah in the Dirksen Senate Office Building. Attended by a bunch of Democrats, one of whom gave him his crown. It’s a fetching picture… Have a great day.
Reverend Moon has spent over $2 billion ensuring Washington’s fish are well wrapped and its bird cages are well papered with Washington Times newsprint. The parakeets of the District of Columbia salute you, Reverend Moon, o philanthropist of the animal world. As do we.
Morning all. Anyone know how to tell the dog that it is now standard time and we should still be in bed?
Nothing says respect like a pile of money.
I’ll tell your dog if you’ll tell my cats… They were wide awake and raring to have breakfast at 4:45 this morning.
Good morning everyone. How anyone could exchange a sentence with the nutcase Moon is a mystery to me, but I guess money might make it possible.
Good moring all and thanks for the post, Attaturk.
Morninig JOkE is apparently hell bent on reaffirming his stupidity this morning by openly abusing and humiliating his cohost. (while the 2 resident savants stare slack-jawed) Why she doesn’t slap him on air is beyond me.
If I were Mika I’d slap his lips off.
Because she’s stupid. She’s just giggling away because he’s so cute.
You msnbc folks could be watching Kristoff & someone else talking about economic development on cspan2.
BTW, my hunter friend bagged a moose in VT, so I have quite a bit of mooseburger in my freezer. Gonna make chili one rainy day. I’ll invite Sarah to share.
My son and grandson got 3 pheasants yesterday. Smoked pheasant yum.
I bought a pheasant at the farmers’ market once, but I didn’t prepare it well. Don’t exactly know what went wrong. Smoked sounds good, though.
Why does this sound so wrong on a number of counts?
What skullduggery is Neil up to these days, other than what you highlight?
Details?
The last I recall, Neil’s public image involved divorce and Asian call girls.
But the juxtaposition of “hand delivered” in a “religious” setting was what I was trying to get at.
I got your innuendo.
Was wondering how his book company was doing under NCLB, now that O’s in the WH. Does O have a book company friend who’s taken over the business?
Morning, pups! Looks like there be a new drug for lupus. Fingers crossed for Christy.
*may be*
Surprise, surprise. Afghanistan cancels election previously set for next Saturday.
Well, really, what’s the point? Costly and deadly enterprise for a one person race, no?
Good Morning….See Caturday ;))
Correct – and as long as Karzai can be declared winner that was the whole point of having an election anyway.
Am I the only one who thinks Hoffman looks a tad effeminate?
Shit Crystal on WJ. what is with these people? AEI neocon yesterday Numbnuts today – jeebus.
I could never understand why the democrats didn’t hit republicans hard for their moon relationship and how much they will abandon their principles for a donor’s money and support
I just thought of something
I think you could get most republicans to support a democrat if the democrats start contributing to the republicans coffers
just a theory of mine but worth a shot me thinks
Democrats (with the exception of Grayson) don’t know how to hit.
He looks like a straight married republiKKKan male with kids who prefers to have covert, public sex with men. Chris Christie looks like the fat version of same. What’s ur point?
Sorry, had a venue change.
He was more open and harsh with his ridicule than usual.
The way everyone keeps stuff like this( and worse) out of the mainstream tells me the neo-cons WILL be back! Just keep the kitty litter flying Obama!
By – an old hippie
Not just Moon. Holy Joe has also sucked up to Christian Zionist lunatic John Hagee.
The Bushes have a long history of financial dealings with questionable characters, in addition to the Saudi royal family. Neil Bush used the Moonie cult leader, Sun Myung to finance his educational business in 2008. Check out this report by Bill Berkowitz at Talk to Action:

Nice catch that photo should be the lead on KO and Rachel Moonies and the GOP!
I turned on CNN, watched for several days, and this was not reported. Then I turned to the Nora O’Donnell Andrea Mitchel Chuck Todd channel, paid attention through several complete, identical news loops, and again heard nothing about this. Conclusion: photoshop! You hippies aren’t kidding me.
Hell, Lieberman’s not the only entity sucking up to Father Moon. Just look at CBS, which is now doing
anti-Democratic hit piecescollaborations with the Washington Times.The Rev. Moon is not Jesus II. He’s the elder brother of Jesus, who was his prophet and precursor. It goes John the Baptist –> Jesus –> Moon.
It’s not the Mother Ship. It’s the Bull Ship.
And as we all know, the Bull Ship goes on forever.
Heil Kitty.
I hope The King of the World washed his hands after accepting anything “hand-delivered by Neil Bush.”
Just sayin’
The Washington Times: now with less circulation than any newspaper in an American mid-sized city! (67,000)
