Lord of the Beans - Veggie Tales

I look forward to seeing the Veggie Tales’ spoof. As a big fan of J.R.R. Tolkien’s books and the recent movies it should be at least mildly amusing to view these with the family.

The Toledo Blade wrote a piece about the movie. A more upbeat article can be found at Christianitytoday.com. It will be interesting as this is the first episode written by Vischer since Big Idea’s changed ownership.

Blackwell’s Short List For Running Mate - Sen. Jim Jordan

State Senator Jordan has been seen as a potential running mate for some time. Confirmation of this was posted in the Lima News and the Dayton Daily News. It appears that Senator Jordan is one of only two on the very short list.

???It???s speculation at this point. Ken and I have talked about it a couple of times, and I am supporting Ken for governor,??? Jordan said. ???There???s no decision that???s been made, and they???re on their time frame, and if they would ask me, I would certainly be interested.???

Senator Jordan is a great conservative selection. He is strong on life issues, school vouchers, and the second ammendment. Jordan is also a man of integrity. If Secretary of State Ken Blackwell brings Jordan on board, it will enhance an already strong candidate. It will also seal my choice for the governor’s race.

“And This Little Piggy” Was Banned!

In an amazing move by ’sensitive’ British Banks they are banning the classic piggy banks which for many years served as an incentive for children to save their change. This sudden change of policy has also caused piglet to flee a country which has become increasingly senstive to Muslim sensibilities. Winnie the Pooh, destraught over the loss of his friend was last seen sitting on a log saying, “Think, think, think.”

In another related case the three little pigs’ houses were also destroyed. However the wolf was prevented from eating the pigs who were simply deported to Mexico where they found easy passage into the United States.

The effects of these events on politics remains to be seen. Terms like ‘Pork barrel’ spending could be in jeopardy. It seems likely that the whole system will be in a pickle over the issue and will quickly form a committee to resolve the issues at hand. In the meantime British Banks have toyed with the idea of a “Osama bin laden” bank as a gesture of good will. They contain a handy feature which doesn’t require a hammer but contains small charges to break the little bank for the child. Bank Officials, hopeful this move will help, commented that they believed the children will get a real bang out of the new bank.

‘Calvin and Hobbes’ creator keeps privacy

I have been an avid reader of cartoons for many years. There are those that will always be remembered as ‘favorites’. Calvin and Hobbes was definitely a top of the list cartoon which was required reading. Unfortunately it doesn’t look like we will hear much more of this great cartoon any more than we will hear of Bill Waterson, the creator who has continued to remain elusive.

Outside the Beltway expressed his fans thoughts…

Truly a shame. The good news is he went out on top.

A good time to get the book of his complete comics for the Christmas season. It has been long enough now that they would be like new… with a good dose of nostalgia.

Abortionists Demand Pharmacists Help

It appears that we can expect a new series of outrages by the supporters of Planned Parenthood (should that be planned un-parenthood?). Atheists are upset that a Pharmacist refuses to dispense a perscription for EC (emercency contraceptives). Their outrage also extends toward Planned Parenthood for noting the pharmacist cited moral beliefs when ‘religious beliefs’ would have better suited for their framing of the issue. Honesty, however, demands that it be acknowledged that moral and religious beliefs are linked to both positions whether the atheists would admit it or not.

To some the dispensing of the “morning-after-pill’ is the moral equivalent of handing out the bullets to Nazi guards in concentration camps. Legal or not their is the funamental objection to participating in the act.

One such case involves a woman in Milwaukee, WI. In this case she went to Walgreen’s and the pharmacist refused to dispense the ‘morning-after-pills’. The women became pregnant and a lawsuit is likely.

Of course Walgreen’s policy allows pharmacists to refuse to dispense drugs they object to. However, they also require that it be passed on to another pharmacist or to another pharmacy.

When Roe vs Wade came on the national scene Norma McCorvey claimed she had been raped. She was 21 at the time and never did have an abortion due to the decision came too late. However, it came to light that McCorvey she had not been raped. In her own words…

“Abortion has been founded on lies and deception from the very beginning. All I did was lie about how I got pregnant. I was having an affair. It all started out as a little lie. I said what I needed to say. But, my little lie grew and grew and became more horrible with each telling. Sarah and Linda’s (the pro-abortion attorneys in Roe) eyes seemed blinded to my obvious inability to tell the same story twice. It was good for the cause. It read well in the newspapers. With the help of willing media the credibility of well-known columnists, the lie became known as the truth these past 25 years.”

It is the pro-abortionits (pro-choice if that’s too harsh for you) who have utilized fabricated and overly dramatized scenerios to generate a favorable court decisions for issues they could never win at the ballot box. Don’t be surprised if pressure will be generated against pharmacists to be unwilling participants.

What makes me suspicious? Just read about the EC’s usage.

EC is used within 120 hours (5 days) after intercourse. It is most effective within the first 24 hours…. The first dose of EC is taken within 120 hours of unprotected intercourse. The second dose is usually taken 12 hours later. EC may be taken after 120 hours, but its effectiveness is lower.

A woman who has unprotected sex in this culture has many risk factors to be concerned about. Those aside, the EC can be procured ahead of time then finding a willing pharmacists is not a problem. If indeed the pill doesn’t work (only has a 75% success rate) or the pill can’t be found, Planned un-Parenthood has made it easy to schedule a time for the baby to be aborted… even up to being nearly birthed. Dubious? You can count on it.

Oh… about the comparison of this situation to a vegetarian refusing to sell beef jerky to a customer borders on the absurd. Well I guess human life is worth less that about anything to some.
