Chupacabra Report

More news that gets my goat…

Did you see that the Christian Coalition elected a new president only to see him resign when he found that the group wasn’t interested in feeding the hungry or healing the afflicted but rather wanted him to focus on the scourges of abortion and gay marriage. Seems they got the wrong guy when they picked Orlando mega-church pastor Rev. Joel Hunter. Go figure, he wrote a book titled “Right Wing, Wrong Bird; Why the Tactics of the Religious Right Won’t Fly With Most Christian Conservatives”

And more Newspeak; the WaPo reports that the 11 million people who reported going hungry last year in America will now be described by the USDA as having “very low food security.” Are these bureaucrats and ideologues cynical or just clueless?

And newly-re-elected Gov. Rick Perry is no longer demagoging about fencing or mining the border with Mexico. What happened? Consider that his moneybags Bob Perry and Bo Pilgrim told the Dallas Morning News last summer that we “need foreign workers to keep the economy growing.” –Maybe their economy, myself, I’m looking for a better economic model than this self-serving babbitry. Economic democracy si, kleptrocracy no.
