JFC wristbands

Ok, so it's been over two months since I've posted an update. I've been working on an online training manual for my department at work, and that has taken up most of my time. I don't update my blog from home, so it's has just sat by and waited. Good old Beekman Place.
I read the frickin' news every day and I can't believe the people and politicians in this country keep letting the administration get by with what they do. Especially with the recent charges of mass-murder by the marines in Iraq. AArgh. And today I read this quote:

"It [gay marriage] [is] the one issue I have seen that eclipses even the abortion issue among Southern Baptists," says Richard Land, president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention.

Ok, how about war? How about corruption? How about global warming? How about civil liberties? How about the poor? How about HIV/AIDS?

Jesus Fucking Christ. I'm going to get a bracelet that says just that. Jesus Fucking Christ.
So, apparently hacking the heads off of heathens and playing soccer with them is not such a big deal, but if those same two heathens hold hands, then Armageddon will begin and the beast will rise from the sea.
I think the BIG GAY GOP FEAR FACTOR says it all.
It scares the hell out of me how intent these religious assholes are in making sure they are the only ones with any rights left in America.
It seems as though all sorts of groups are talking, talking, talking about the administration and whether Bush is doing illegal things, but no one seems to be doing anything about it. I can only hope that the negativity goes through the November elections and the Democrats sweep Congress with a 75% majority or more. That's the only way anything is going to happen, because apparently the Democrats have become so spineless that many of them (Clinton, Lieberman) are still supporting the President.
I guess until then, we will just have to settle for tossing Bush around.
