“When fascism comes to America – it will be holding a Bible & wrapped in a flag ” Upton Sinclair..
There appears to be an intercine split going on in the Republican Party down here in Texas – Gov Rick Perry is being supported by the Christian wingnutfundamentalist ,as well as the the Grover Norquist no taxes fundamnentalist – Meanwhile Kay Bailey Hutchinson is mounting a primary challenge that has the historical regular gop’ers helping her try to challenge the wingnuts. This conflict threatens the continued dominance the Republicans have down here ,
A quick illustration of that split – one Senior Partner of a very prominent law firm with long ties to the Bush family was heard to say that “Him and Barry Goldwater would not have cared who you married as long as you paid your taxes and defended the Country ” and he was also the one who told me a very tacky Cheney joke -
“It seems that Cheney has invited all his former staff down to the south Texas ranch -particularly wants Scotter Libby there since he did not get his full pardon -Should any of his former staff arrive early before the hunt is to begin – just go ahead and head for the fully stocked bar – help yourself -and be sure to disregard the backhoe , and big trench thats been freshly dug behind the bunkhouse -nothing to be concerned about-its for new septic system -”
that Sr Partner is a regular rider in my little one van charter service down here -and he is supporting Kay Bailey Hutchinson in the primary . This could very well mean the Democrats have a shot next general election
Thank you “C” street and Grover …

Riley said the house is operated by a “Christian group” that he couldn’t readily identify.
…

Riley said the people who donated the house did so for congressmen who “wanted to live in a Christian atmosphere.”

So while Riley could not identify the group, he does know why this group donated the house. He does not know them, but he knows their motivation. How does he know why someone he’s unfamiliar with did something?

Nice catch. Yet another disavowing citizen of C Street. Only this time, his memory is bad.

Heh. I should have given Petro a wink and a hug as well. My jokes just don’t seem to stand on their own.

C Street is so civil when the correct name would be “The Uber Family”
In 1930 Abraham Vereide was the Nazi “beachhead” in the US and following the directives of the Third Reich began his “fundamentalist” propaganda here.
Doug Coe and David Coe continue the establishment of the Forth Reich here in the US under the guise of unquestionable “Christianity”.
The Big Secret no one talks about because this cult has infiltrated all levels of government and society. In another time and place they would all be in prison on valid charges. Today they are running the country and media.
Soon the kids will be taught Jesus was the first Goose-stepper and wore a Swastika armband.
