The Room
Here’s some interesting Christian inspirational spam that I received – decent enough to put up.
————————————–
“THE ROOM” as written by a 17 Year Old Boy.
This is excellent and really gets you thinking about what will happen in Heaven.
17-year-old Brian Moore had only a short time to write something for a class. The subject was What Heaven Was Like. “I wowed ‘em,” he later told his father, Bruce. It’s a killer. It’s the bomb It’s the best thing I ever wrote.” It also was the last.
Brian’s parents had forgotten about the essay when a cousin found it while cleaning out the teenager’s locker at Teays Valley High School in Pickaway County, Ohio .
Brian had been dead only hours, but his parents desperately wanted every piece of his life near them, notes from classmates and teachers, and his homework. Only two months before, he had handwritten the essay about encountering Jesus in a file room full of cards detailing every moment of the teen’s life. But it was only after Brian’s death that Beth and Bruce Moore realized that their son had described his view of heaven.
It makes such an impact that people want to share it. “You feel like you are there,” Mr. Moore said. Brian Moore died May 27, 1997, the day after Memorial Day. He was driving home from a friend’s house when his car went off Bulen-Pierce Road in Pickaway County , Ohio and struck a utility pole. He emerged from the wreck unharmed but stepped on a downed power line and was electrocuted.
The Moore ‘s framed a copy of Brian’s essay and hung it among the family portraits in the living room. “I think God used him to make a point. I think we were meant to find it and make something out of it,” Mrs. Moore said of the essay. She and her husband want to share their son’s vision of life after death. “I’m happy for Brian. I know he’s in heaven. I know I’ll see him.
Here is Brian’s essay.
Suicide Bombers Go On Strike
Muslim suicide bombers in Britain are set to begin a three-day strike on Monday in a dispute over the number of virgins they are entitled to in the afterlife. Emergency talks with Al Qaeda have so far failed to produce an agreement.
The unrest began last Tuesday when Al Qaeda announced that the number of virgins a suicide bomber would receive after his death will be cut by 25% this February, from 72 to only 60. The rationale for the cut was the increase in recent years of the number of suicide bombings and a subsequent shortage of virgins in the afterlife. Read more
What is a billion?
Another interesting conservative ‘spam’ letter that I thought I’d share.
——————————–
$1,000,000,000
This is too true to be funny. The next time you hear a politician use the word ‘billion’ in a casual manner, think about whether you want the politicians’ spending YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of it’s releases.
- A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
- A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
- A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
- A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
- A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, at the rate our government is spending it.
WWII Posters, before the age of Political Correctness
My uncle sends me a lot of conservative ‘spam,’ and some of it is interesting stuff. Here’s the latest. I wonder what these posters would look like if they focused on our modern enemy, ‘militant’ Islam?
What’s wrong with the Senate health care bill? OMFG
I don't often curse, especially in print, but can I just say that the current administration's health care and climate plans are the height of idiocy! Especially since these crises are largely manufactured, and not real. The health care 'crisis' is really a crisis of EMPLOYMENT, which the Obama admin, despite their claims of saving jobs ('Mission accomplished'), has run into the ground since Bush, promising us that it would have been worse without it (even though under their plan, unemployment got even worse than their projections had we done nothing).
So here's some conservative 'spam' that is making the viral rounds. OBAMACARE IS AN ABOMINATION, and he is turning out to be one of the worst presidents in history.
—————————————————————
Senator Bayh,
As a practicing physician I have major concerns with the health care bill
before Congress. I actually have read the bill and am shocked by the
brazenness of the government's proposed involvement in the
patient-physician relationship. The very idea that the government will
dictate and ration patient care is dangerous and certainly not helpful in
designing a health care system that works for all. Every physician I work
with agrees that we need to fix our health care system, but the proposed
bills currently making their way through congress will be a disaster if
passed.
I ask you respectfully and as a patriotic American to look at the following
troubling lines that I have read in the bill. You cannot possibly believe
that these proposals are in the best interests of the country and our
fellow citizens.
Page 22 of the HC Bill: Mandates that the Govt will audit books of
all employers that self-insure!!
Page 30 Sec 123 of HC bill: THERE WILL BE A GOVT COMMITTEE that
decides what treatments/benefits you get.
Page 29 lines 4-16 in the HC bill: YOUR HEALTH CARE IS RATIONED!!!
Leaders in hell, an Obama joke
A joke from the conservative spamosphere…
————————————————
George Bush, Queen Elizabeth, and Vladimir Putin all die and go to hell. While there, they spy a red phone and ask what the phone is for.
The devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth.
Putin asks to call Russia and talks for 5 minutes. When he was finished the devil informs him that the cost is a million dollars, so Putin writes him a check.
Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes. When she was finished the devil informs her that cost is 6 million dollars, so Queen Elizabeth writes him a check.
Finally George Bush gets his turn and talks for 4 hours. When he was finished the devil informed him that there would be no charge for the call and feel free to call the USA anytime.
When Putin hears this he goes ballistic and asks the devil why Bush got to call the USA free.
The devil replied, "Since Obama became president of the U.S. the country has gone to hell, so naturally it's a local call."
The 9/12 pictures the liberal media did not show you
My uncle sends me lots of great conservative spam, and some of it deserves to be seen. These pictures tell a story other than what the liberal media want to portray. As you'll see below, more realistic crowd estimates place participation between 450K and 1.2M people.
Notice the actual black Americans – I wonder why the rampant 'racism' driving these conservatives doesn't seem to offend them. Hmmm. Maybe because that's just liberal projection from their own confused minds. That's my guess. Read the captions, they tell the story behind each pic. Wonderful truth. My notes in blue.
Protesters came from every state in the union. This man came from San Antonio, TX. He said that he was really sorry he hadn’t brought his family. He stated that being a black conservative he was afraid to expose his children to what he expected would be a lot of liberal abuse. He was thrilled with the tenor of the event and the fact that no liberals were present to harass him. He spoke about how incredibly intolerant the left is to black individuals who don’t bow to the party line.
The Dream Van
Culled from the top of the conservative spam I get, enjoy. There's two pics, one after the jump.
The Class That Failed – A socialist allegory updated for Obamanomics
Here's an Obama spam making its rounds among us neocons. It reminds me of A lesson in economics using beer. These allegories are always a bit oversimplified, but they are important in that they:
- Communicate the essence of the proposed plans in a simple to understand analogy
- Communicate the clear and simple problems of the proposed plans
- Communicate the real concerns, fears, and anger of the opposition
- Involve ridicule from the minority, which should be viewed as a warning that failing to heed the concerns will lead to the next step – public defiance (can you say "Town Hall meetings"?)
What such allegories lack in sophistication they easily make up for in clarity, something most political plans, including Obama's, lack.
Some conservative bumper stickers I got in a viral email
I haven't had time for blogging lately, but did get this humorous email I wanted to share. I deleted the less intelligent bumper stickers, but these made me laugh, sometimes cynically. Here are some choice stickers, with commentary.
This one to the right is my favorite, and speaks for itself. Clever, though obvious.
A pejorative history of the conservative and liberal movements
Here you go, a spam humor email that was sent to me. I had to post it. It does nothing more than tickle conservatives and inflame liberal girlie men ;
Some schmaltzy kids and God humor
Here’s some cute misunderstandings of God by kids, sent to me as some internet spam. Enjoy.
LOT’S WIFE
The Sunday School teacher was describing how Lot’s wife looked back
and turned into a pillar of salt, when little Jason interrupted, ‘My
Mommy looked back once while she was driving,’ he announced
triumphantly, ‘and she turned into a telephone pole !’
A German’s view of Islam
My uncle sends me conservative spam, and every tenth one is worth republishing. Here you go. I would alternately call this post "Why moderate Muslims can’t keep Islam from killing millions and threatening humanity as a modern-day, religious Nazism."
“Housewife” says what many of us feel about Islam
Ok, here’s another spam from my uncle – he sends me about one a day, but I like to post the ones I agree with or enjoy. I checked snopes for this and couldn’t find it, but it doesn’t matter – the sentiments shared here are shared by many of us who are sick of Islamic excuse making, and the American media’s failure to call a spade a spade – while most Islamic people may be nice, Islam is a hellish religion that poisons those who are taught by it – as has been said, the only reason more Muslims are not murderous is because they are human and realize the atrocity of what it really teaches.
And unlike the intellectually and historically ignorant claims of anti-religionists, all religions are not the same, and few are as murderous as Islam, and certainly NOT Christianity, which has done more good for humankind than any other.
So enjoy.
What a marine in Fallujah goes through – double tapping
My uncle sends me a lot of these patriotic conservative spams, some of which are schmaltzy, some jingoistic, and some really good. This one, a response to criticisms of Marine tactics in Fallujah, specifically, the practice of "double-tapping" wounded enemies (shooting them twice in the head), is a good read. This has been around the pro military sites for a while, but I’ve just seen it. I could not find the supposed news article that this is responding to.
Saying Grace In A Restaurant
Here’s the latest internet schmaltz that I thought worth publishing. But the message is worthy – God wants us to be happy, even if sourpusses say otherwise.
A poem by Judge Moore
LATEST SPAM EMAIL
Some of you may be wondering what Judge Roy Moore has been doing since he was removed from the bench for refusing to remove the Ten Commandments from his courtroom wall. Among other things, he’s been writing conservative poetry.
The following is a poem written by Judge Roy Moore from Alabama Judge Moore was sued by the ACLU for displaying the Ten Commandments in his courtroom foyer. He has been stripped of his judgeship and now they are trying to strip his right to practice law in Alabama.
The judge’s poem sums it up quite well…………
Life in the 1500′s
My uncle daily sends me inspirational or funny spam emails. I have no idea where he gets them all, but I thought to start putting them up, just because they are culturally interesting. I can’t vouch for the truth of these, though I do check snopes.com first. Here’s the first item: Life in the 1500′s.
This will REALLY WORK
In the past week I have gotten the same email from a high school friend and now from a co-worker. It proposes a new plan to bring gas prices down that will REALLY WORK (capitalization always helps serious policy proposals).
The only problem is that, just like not buying gas on one certain day, this new proposal will have absolutely zero positive impact on the price you pay at the pump.
