DA: Statute of limitations prevents charges in judge's beating of daughter
Aransas County District Attorney Patrick Flanigan sent a letter to Rockport Police Chief Tim Jayroe Thursday evening, informing him of his decision on prosecution.
--------------------------------------------
My Take
If she was steeling, the judge should have turned her to prosecution, and have the law deal with her. Have her in jail where she would be more civilized.
Now, the daughter appears to have known her father, and decided to set him up for blackmail--typical woman. What are the statutes of limitations for theft?
So, if the law or society punishes the judge, that will be a blank check for other teenagers who steel and terrorize society.
Most likely the feminist movement including religionists, will justify that steeling is OK, by fighting the father, who tried to prevent his daughter from becoming a bum. If they prosecute this father, the law is now saying that it is OK to steel if you live with you father.
Cunning at its peak, well,” if I can’t have my toys the way I demand, I will make you miserable”. That attitude is normally from divorced women, seems like that cat graduated ahead of her class.

Foreigners' Sweetener: Buy House, Get a Visa
By NICK TIMIRAOS
The reeling housing market has come to this: To shore it up, two Senators are preparing to introduce a bipartisan bill Thursday that would give residence visas to foreigners who spend at least $500,000 to buy houses in the U.S.
----------------------------------
My Take
The capitalists created the mess “Take the vacation you deserve, you have plenty of equity on you house”, and “Remodel, you deserve it”. That was what rocketed the real estate prices right out of affordability, and pushed people to borrow what they could not pay for.
But, that is not enough for the 1%, now they put the US citizen competing with foreigners to buy a home. Now, they want to keep the houses off the reach of the average American. They feel it is more prudent to destroy a house than to keep people with a roof over their heads.
So, they are bulldozing houses to keep the prices high. Where are lawmakers? Oops, they work hand and hand politician and the 1%; they are the 1%.
Supply and demand again created artificially to keep Americans without houses, and paying rent to Foreigners'. Other nations keeping the American dream far from our citizens, is that treason? Is there any other way to create another level of slaves?
Go OWS go. Let’s vote them 1% off of office, and let’s vote for real people. Remember Obama II is in the 1%, and so is Romney.

Bad mouthing the LDS Church to get at Romney

Romney’s Mormon Problem
Mitt Romney and the weird and sinister beliefs of Mormonism.
By Christopher Hitchens|Posted Monday, Oct. 17, 2011, at 11:05 AM ET
-------------------------
My Take
Everybody has the right to quote anybody else and appear educated to those who don’t know anything either. It appears even more sophisticated to blend a little bit of truth with lots of distortions to appear more realistic. But, takes courage and it takes ethics in learning about something before writing about it.
I have investigated the LDS church in parallel to the bible; thus, I found, the LDS church does follow the bible. Also, I have read much anti-Mormon literature by former LDS members that I noticed it to be false.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints follows the bible. Everything the LDS church practices can be found in the bible, if anyone wants to check both. However, it appears that Christopher Hitchens has not done his homework on either.
If Hitchens dislikes Romney, that is fine, I dislike Mitt too. We are both on the same side on that issue. However, badmouthing the LDS church to get at Romney is childish, it is immature, and proves the lack of intellect needed to be believed by any reasonable person regardless of religion or being a non-believer.
Just one example of distortion is the fact of membership, and opting out. To leave the LDS church, all it takes is for the person who chooses to leave, to write to, or visit the local clerk and state that he or she wants their name removed. Those who were friends still keep their friendships. That is something I know firsthand.

An unapologetic Pastor Robert Jeffress
Seed Newsvinehttp://www.reuters.com/article/2011/10/09/us-usa-campaign-jeffress-idUSTRE7982DV20111009
(Reuters) - An unapologetic Pastor Robert Jeffress, who created a stir for calling Mormonism a "cult" at a political gathering, told hundreds of congregants at his Texas megachurch on Sunday that he welcomed the opportunity he's had to warn people about a "false religion."
------------------------------------
My Take
It is bizarre for people with education to behave ignorantly. For, as it is, a statement without any evidence shows Jeffress lack of knowledge about both the LDS Church and about the Bible. Anytime anyone makes a statement, that individual must present evidence. That is the way the academia functions.
For Pastor Jeffress to make an accusation that a religion especially the LDS church to be false, Jeffers if he had any intellectual qualities, would take the bible and compare it with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. However, to make such a comparison Jeffress, would need to know about he LDS church as well.
As it is appears Jeffress knows nothing about the LDS church, unless of course his knowledge if from ex-LDS people who left because they could not get power, and they could not change themselves to follow the bible.
Sorry, Mr. Jefffress, your lack of academic qualities has exposed your true-self—simple uniformed and full of hate. Please correct me if am wrong. I have read the bible for 33 years, and also I have studied The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The LDS church follows every bit of the bible, so the LDS appears to be the true religion; if we are considering which church is true of false.
Does Jeffress church follows the entire bible or is it just following the convenient parts of the bible? Appears that Mr. Jeffress comments have answered the question. For, how is Pastor Jeffress living? Is he working for a living, and preaching by sacrifice, without as salary from the congregation, like the LDS preachers—lay people? Or is Jeffress getting a salary to preach? Like every church I know except for the LDS church; though there may be some churches who preach of the love of God, for there are over five thousand religions.
If Mr. Jeffresss is getting paid to preach, or if he preaches for profit, than is statements about the LDS are just a form of job security; and the religion he preaches is not true; for in the new testament it says ’’That which you freely get, freely give” preaching is not for profit. Jeffress is simply doing what has been done for centuries.
However, if Pastor Jeffers has any sense of integrity, he must show the evident that he alludes to, about the LDS. Otherwise Pastor Jeffress’s credentials both as a pastor and as leader are as worthy as much as his statements—without merit.
Killing A US Citizen, where is the Geneva Convention
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/09/world/middleeast/secret-us-memo-made-legal-case-to-kill-a-citizen.html?_r=1&nl=todaysheadlines&emc=tha2
From NT Times
Secret U.S. Memo Made Legal Case to Kill a Citizen
WASHINGTON — The Obama administration’s secret legal memorandum that opened the door to the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki, the American-born radical Muslim cleric hiding in Yemen, found that it would be lawful only if it were not feasible to take him alive, according to people who have read the document.
----------------------------------------------
My Take
Where are the hypocrite democrats? They accused Bush of being trigger-happy with Iraq, and they even sided with private Bradley. Now, their man—Obama II, is a making Bush to appear like an amateur. In less than six months Obama II, has overwritten the Geneva convention by assassinating unarmed men. This is what they could not hide-how about behind the scenes? The SEALS will tell it to their buddies in about a decade, as they normally do.
Granted that both Bin Laden and Awlaki were at war with the US, but were they armed when we killed them? Bin Laden was not, and no one is alive to tell us about the US Citizen. Is the US not a signatory of the Geneva Convention?
Killing Bin Laden and dumping his body at sea saved lots of aggravation, Killing Awlaki probably saved aggravation too; but it is un-American to kill people who could have been tried and sentenced to death--by justice.
Can we in all honesty call upon the Geneva Conventions when the shoe is on the other foot? When China copies our deeds, can we tell them that they are not civilized, and that they are not respecting the law? Sorry, both the CIA and Obama II have created a very bad situation for our soldiers when the will become POWs, it will happen. Where is the liberal cry?

Answers to some comments about homosexuality and religion
Seed Newsvine---------------------------------------------------
One
Try to see the movie--original “The Exorcist”. It is based on true a story in Connecticut about 4 decades ago. I met an Army officer, the son of the doctor who examined the girl—as the movie was based on--not a boy. Perhaps, you can see another extreme of reality.
I too have knowledge of spiritual life. The girl in CT, could at times when possessed, speak ancient languages, and she tossed a bunch of doctors as if they were dolls. Yea! You explain that with all the sophisticated technology, if you think that life is just the stage of mortality.
Logic is more than convenience. I see, that you too see much fakeness in religion, that is why I said true religion. I too, once thought similarly as you do think. On my blog I have better description of religion.
------
Two
There are thousands of religions. Many religions--especially Christian based, have all the symptoms of well developed enterprises. Many other religions appear to focus on convenience. True religion refers to those religions whose leaders and laypeople sincerely try to follow God and their scriptures, to be better people and to love others with the spirit of freedom, regardless of denomination.
Homosexual and Religious Bigotry and Irony.

Why Are Religious Conservatives So Scared of Gay Sex?
September 29, 2011
Anti-gay bigotry is just one piece of a larger picture of conservative fear and loathing of all forms of sexuality.
------------------------------------------------
My Take
Of course the extreme right wing are a bunch of enforcers, just as extreme are the homosexual community. It is appalling to hear both claiming victim. The homosexual community crying while trying to destroy other people’s believes, and raising the flag of fear, homophobic, and bigotry, and orientation; and then forcing their views on everybody-else. Likewise, the right wing mixes sacred things with conveniences, such as flesh-glut. The homosexual community does likewise, mixing uncontrolled desires with good choices such as vegetarianism.
What is being very obvious is the way that both extremist groups try to defend their turf without being civilized enough to respect their opponents. The right wing loses its credibility as soon as it mocks vegetarianism, the liberals lose their credibility when they disdain true-religion, and other peoples’ sacred believes. Both groups are mockers and short-sited about the truth.
Ironically, the homosexual community is much better at following the bible in the area of choice and vegetarianism than the conservatives. The conservatives appear to follow the bible only on the sacredness of marriage. Perhaps both groups can contribute honestly to our society by being less forceful.
The Old Testament shows us that sex is sacred, to be used for a special purpose; likewise, God has set bonds on the usage of sex; but, God’s has set limits, such limits are not convenient to the homosexual community. Also in the Old Testament, God shows His abhor to the usage of meat under normal circumstances, but that is not convenient to the far-right either.
When people decide to like something it turns into a habit, and then that habit becomes part of that person’s personality. The situation then keeps on snowballing into a status, into a culture; unless less people decide to stop and see if their behavior is in accord with God’s desire or commandments.
Of course, by pretending that God does not exist provides some cover, even though false cover. It is as bad as using only parts of the bible in trying to justify behavior, which both the homosexual community and the far-right community are experts at. Both groups are missing the mark. Life does continue after the body, and eternity must be the goal—as Jesus said.
