By His Bootstraps

Money and the media pulled up Obama. Koehl-Dooley goes into OT. Poetic nostalgia. Plus more.

(Page 2 of 2)

6.) Nearly all sides within worldwide Christianity agree that the pneumatological theology of The Holy Ghost is woefully underdeveloped. All must guard themselves against any premature foreclosure as we go forward. Both the West and the East have big chips on their shoulders and that will have to stop if progress is to be made.

However the Church Universal resolves this issue, both the Orthodox Church and the Churches of the Reformation will still have a rugged mountain before them to deal with -- namely this Roman Bishop who insists on his Peterine primacy among all the faithful.
-- Mike Dooley

 

CAN THEY TAKE THAT AWAY?
Re: John A. Barnes's Empire State Holdouts:

"If tomorrow all the things were gone
I worked for all my life
And I had to start over again
With just my children and my wife
 
"I’d thank my lucky stars
To be living here today
‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can’t take that away"

What's the worst that can happen has been asked TAS on more than one occasion. 

So, Mr. Greenwood, respectfully, I will get back to you after January 20, 2009  and see if a Democratic Congress and a President Obama can take away not only what you've worked for all your life but your freedom as well.

I believe Obama is the antichrist and I pray that St. Michael will vanquish him.

My family know where I am: in Canada, which will not stand long if the USA falls, but which may be safer in the near term as it has lots more empty space to hide out in. Govern yourselves accordingly.

Oh, and if you haven't voted yet, go to YouTube and google "Tomorrow Belongs To Me." If that doesn't make your blood run cold, keep away from me.

Do you think the folks who got what they wanted will realize they didn't want what they got in a few months?

to Ira Kessel--of course they cannot TAKE your freedom, they can take your life, you have to surrender freedom.

The left-wing illuminati had the cash, which may be suspect, and the media on their side, and that is what helped them win this election.
