No “Merry Fitzmas” This Year For the Libs

October 31st, 2005 at 08:09 by Site Administrator
Mark Steyn is always “spot on.” Yesterday in the Chicago Sun-Times, his opinion piece tells it like only he can. All of the Bush-bashers and naysayers are wanting us to believe that this has been a bad couple of weeks for Bush. They couldn’t be farther from the truth (than they usually are anyway).
According to Steyn’s piece:

The “Ding Dong, the Bush Is Dead” fever rages on, disappointments notwithstanding. Hurricane Katrina was, politically, a wash. And say what you like about Harriet Miers, but at least the disaffected right wrapped the whole thing up in a month. Meanwhile, the left’s still panting orgasmically about Patrick Fitzgerald’s investigation into what Scooter Libby said to Judith Miller about what Valerie Plame knew about what Joseph C. Wilson IV said . . . zzzz . . . fingers growing heavy . . . losing the will to type . . .

And tonight, I’m hearing that new polls show that 55% of Americans believe Bush’s presidency has been a failure. Folks, when is somebody in the media going to get it right about just what exactly is the genesis of poll figures? In my opinion, ALL poll numbers that media outlets release should be prefaced by a disclaimer. My favorite, self-formed disclaimer would be this: “Be advised that the following poll results are based on public perception only, which is actually reflective of what is portrayed in the mainstream media outlets as ‘news’. With that in mind, please note, the margin of error is +/- 40%.” But then again, that’s just my opinion.
Anybody have any problem with that? It’s true, isn’t it?

Just for the record, Scooter Libby is the highest-ranking Scooter in the Bush administration, chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney. All last week, lefty gloaters were eagerly anticipating “Fitzmas,” their designation for that happy day when federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald hands down indictments against Libby, and Rove, and maybe Cheney, and — boy oh boy, who knows? — maybe Chimpy Bushitlerburton himself.

Pat Fitzgerald has been making his list, checking it twice, found out who’s naughty or nice, and he’s ready to go on a Slay Ride leaving Bush the Little Drummed-Out Boy and the Dems having a blue blue blue blue blue-state Christmas in November 2006, if not before.

Well, I enjoy the politics of personal destruction as much as the next chap, and one appreciates that it’s been a long time since the heady days when Dems managed to collect the scalps of both Newt Gingrich and his short-lived successor within a few short weeks. But, as I’ve said before, one reason the Democratic Party is such a bunch of losers is because they’re all tactics and no strategy.

Suppose they succeed in destroying Libby and a bunch of other non-household names. Then what? Several analysts are suggesting that the 2006 elections are shaping up like 1994, when Newt’s revolution swept the Democratic old guard from power.

Always remember the media double-standard. If it’s good for the Republicans, it won’t play in the press; if it’s bad for Republicans, it gets Page 1 attention nationwide!

What a wonderful life, huh? Guess Harry Reid is getting a lump of coal in his stocking this season.

It’s Time to Wake Up, America!

October 30th, 2005 at 01:44 by Site Administrator

Hat tip to Michelle Malkin, who pointed me to Dog Pundit (photos courtesy of Reuters). Dog Pundit states the case for an organized letter-writing campaign that truly deserves our attention and ACTION!:

*** HELP TO ORGANIZE A CHURCH LETTER WRITING CAMPAIGN TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVES
AND REPRESENTATIVES OF THE INDONESIAN GOVERNMENT FOR TOMORROW, SUNDAY, OCTOBER
30, 2005 ***

A terrible crime has been committed in Poso, in Central Sulawasi, Indonesia, which for several years has seen sectarian violence against the Christian minority. Thugs have beheaded 3 Christian 16 year old girls walking back from school. This Voice of America report tells how the anti-Christian violence has attracted Islamic militants to Sulawasi.

WARNING: the following image from Reuters Alertnet is disturbing, but documents the absolutely inhuman and barbaric cruelty of the Islamic militants.The account of the attack is documented in this Reuters report, which describes National police spokesman Aryanto Budiharjo as saying up to 6 veiled men dressed in black used machetes to kill the girls from Bukit Bambu village.Two other victims are shown to the right (photo from Reuters Alertnet).

This report from The Star in Malaysia tells how the girls were found in their school uniforms, and that their heads were found 2 hours later some distance away, including one head found about 100 meters from a church. A fourth girl managed to hide and escaped with cuts.

The sectarian violence must stop. There is absolutely no justification for killing defenseless, 16 year old girls on their way to school.

If you would like to protest these outrageous murders, you can send a polite letter to President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono His contact information is located here.

Please try to organize church letter writing campaigns for tomorrow, Sunday, October 30, 2005.Here is the Indonesian President’s website.This URL at the Indonesian Embassy in Washington DC gives the mailing addresses and phone numbers for the entire Indonesian cabinet.

People, what in the hell is wrong with us? Why can’t we seem to come to a collective understanding of how evil this thing called “Islam” is? Before you even start with the emails already, just shut the hell up and see for yourself. I wasn’t going to post these pictures here, but damnit, a reality check is needed! Is this the work of a “peace-loving” religion?


…. How about this?
…or this?
At least Michelle Malkin & Dog Pundit gave you warnings about the graphic photos, but I’m sick and tired of the political correctness that seems to flourish when it comes to seeing evil things others do. Much to the delight of the MSM here, they GLEEFULLY show the “evil” images of things the Americans do! e.g, Abu Ghraib, “Club Gitmo,” Taliban burning bodies, etc., etc.
We did NOT see enough of the images of Nick Berg, continuous footage of the planes flying into the WTC towers, people jumping from the WTC, Saddam’s henchmen cutting off fingers and tongues of detractors… I could go on ad infinitum, but for those out there who know me, I don’t really need to.
The MSM, you see, doesn’t want us to REALIZE this evil known as the “peace-loving religion of Islam.” If we did, then they (the MSM) would serve no useful purpose to civilization as we know it.
But do they really anyway?

Accepting Responsibility

October 26th, 2005 at 07:38 by Site Administrator
Late this evening, Gov. Bush of Florida made an announcement at a news conference he was giving about relief efforts after Hurricane Wilma ran roughshod over his state. He said “Don’t blame FEMA. This is our responsibility.” Governor Bush rightly admitted that the people of Florida, although they were badly battered, had plenty of notice to take action to prepare for themselves.

MIAMI (AP) - Gov. Jeb Bush took the blame Wednesday for frustrating delays at centers distributing supplies to victims of Hurricane Wilma, saying criticism of the Federal Emergency Management Agency was misdirected.

“Don’t blame FEMA. This is our responsibility,” Bush said at a news conference in Tallahassee with federal Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, who oversees the agency.

Many Floridians were still struggling to find food, water, ice and gas on the third day of recovery from Wilma, waiting in line for hours - sometimes in vain. Miami-Dade’s mayor called the distribution system flawed and said at least one relief site of 11 in his county ran out of supplies…

…”People had ample time to prepare. It isn’t that hard to get 72 hours worth of food and water,” said Bush, repeating the advice that officials had given days before Wilma hit.

 
Now, I wonder why, after all this time, the politicians of Louisiana are still looking for the Federal Government to bail them out? Why is it that Misssissippi and Alabama have already recovered, and, in fact, gave their surplus supplies to Louisiana, yet Louisiana still can’t get their act together? Oh, wait… I forgot… yes, the evil, dreaded, Federal Government, who nobody wants in their lives, is supposed to take care of those who are “less fortunate.” Please people, don’t make me remind you about what I think of the “less fortunate.” In fact, that sect of our social strata doesn’t even really exist.And the stories of Katrina’s “evacuees” just get better and better, and they prove exactly why the “government will take care of me” will forever enslave an entire culture that has thrived in New Orleans for decades. (ooh, am I gonna get the hate mail over THIS picture!)

Last Sunday, in the Atlanta Journal Constitution (read: Al Jazeera Constitution), they chronicled the woes of a Katrina “victim” named Rolanda, whose FEMA benefits were about to run out. She’s staying at a local hotel here in Atlanta, on your taxpayer dime, and her only worry is “where is the next hand-out coming from?” Never mind the fact she’s had computer access at the hotel where she’s staying; she’s only used it for searches for new (free) government housing when her FEMA funds run out where she’s staying. What is wrong with this woman and her boyfriend, who is staying with her? Never mind… that was really a sarcastic, rhetorical question anyway.

I’ll let the High Priest of the Church of the Painful Truth (Neal Boortz) preach it like only HE can:

THE POOR, POOR PITIFUL EVACUEES!

Yesterday’s edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution featured a story entitled “Fear of Eviction: Evacuees worry aid will run out.”

The story featured one Rolanda Cain, her one-year-old baby and her “boyfriend.” Rolanda has been living in a motel on Fulton Industrial Blvd. in Atlanta since she left New Orleans. The article says that the federal government has been paying the hotel bill. Not so. It’s the taxpayers who have been footing the bill for Rolanda and her boyfriend. The federal government merely seizes the money and passes it on.

Rolanda is worried about being evicted from the motel. She says “We have a place to stay. We have food. The only worry is how long it will last.”

Say what? Rolanda’s “only worry” is how long the handouts are going to last? Maybe it’s just me, but if I were in her place I might be worried about, say, getting a job! Rolanda says that this is all very frustrating. “With no answers, you don’t know which way to go.” Well, Rolanda is quite the little self-starter, isn’t she? Apparently she’s sitting around waiting for “answers,” instead of spending time on the phone or hitting the streets looking for some work. I wonder if she’s even gone so far as to ask the manager of the hotel where she’s living at taxpayer expense if he might hire her as a housekeeper? And her boyfriend? Is he out there looking for a job while Rolanda stays at home with the kid? The article says nothing. For all we know he may also be just sitting around waiting for “answers.”

Well .. the answers don’t seem to be coming, and Rolanda says that she’s fed up with the FEMA program. Oh my! Rolanda’s fed up! Someone alert the media! Oh, wait. Someone did … and the AJC is really pouring it on thick here.

The article does point out that Rolanda has spent hours in the motel’s computer room searching for other housing. Other housing paid for by taxpayers. Question: If Rolanda is so hot with the computer, why isn’t she spending some time looking for jobs! Don’t tell me there isn’t a Waffle House or fast-food restaurant somewhere on Fulton Industrial Blvd. that Rolanda could walk to to earn a few bucks. Her hard-working boyfriend could look after the child.

Oh … and about the child. The article doesn’t seem to mention where Rolanda’s baby-daddy is. He’s probably out there searching for Rolanda so he can catch his child support payments up.

At the end of the article the Atlanta Journal-Constitution had a list of “What’s available for evacuees.” The list contained the federal disaster assistance programs that were available to evacuees. Among them were cash grants, free hotel stays, expedited housing assistance, low-interest loans, grants for medical care and other goodies. Nowhere in the list did you see any mention of jobs programs or training.

When are people going to stop playing the “it’s everybody else’s fault but mine” game? If the democrook libs get their way, the lazy poor masses of the left will be satiated ever more, but you and I will have to continue picking up the tab. I, for one, am sick of being “stuck with the check” at the end of a meal of which I was not even part.

PoliticalTeen has it posted on his open trackbacks for 10/27/05.

Cops Enforcing Laws Is a Bad Idea???

October 24th, 2005 at 08:20 by Site Administrator

Okay, folks, forgive me if I seem incredulous, but is the ACLU really saying it’s bad for cops to enforce laws? Hang on a sec… let me go get my screen cleaner so I can make sure I’m seeing this right. Well, holy (’scuse me, ACLU) crap… it’s true!I’m not kidding about this - in fact, I wish I were. The Ohio ACLU Litigation Coordinator is saying just that about Butler County’s plans to crack-down on illegal immigrants in their jurisdiction:

HAMILTON - Butler County officials said Friday they expect their plans to crack down on illegal aliens will generate a lot of controversy - particularly with civil rights activists and possibly ethnic groups or unions.

They were right.

By Friday afternoon the Ohio Civil Liberties Union was already on alert to closely watch and review Butler County’s plans. “I have not seen the proposals or anything in writing yet on Butler County’s plans, but from the little that I’ve heard I can say at the outset that, in general, any plan that calls for local law enforcement agencies to enforce federal immigration violations is a bad idea,” said Ohio ACLU Litigation Coordinator Gary Daniels, of Cleveland.

At the outset, Daniels said local officials can’t guarantee they aren’t creating a situation that will invite or encourage racial profiling.

“You can write into new legislation or policies as many protections as you think are necessary for preventing racial profiling, but just because it’s prohibited on paper doesn’t mean profiling won’t happen in reality,” Daniels said. “Not all immigrants are people with brown skin.

“Therefore, the only way local officials can accomplish this type of policing fairly is if they required officers to ask citizenship questions of every single person they encounter,” Daniels said. “More likely than not, these types of questions will fall disproportionately on immigrants with darker skin color.”

Additionally, Daniels said implementing a state law that empowers local police and sheriff’s officials to detain people for immigration violations could cause irreparable damage to already delicate relationships between law enforcement and immigrant communities.

“For very good reason, police agencies throughout the country have worked very hard to make positive in-roads into their local immigrant communities,” Daniels said. “This proposal could create a culture of mistrust and fear that would impede police investigations which rely on obtaining information from those communities.”


First of all, why is targeting “brown people” racial profiling? Last time I checked, I haven’t seen any news clips or stories of hordes of blond-hair, blue-eyed people crossing the border en masse to achieve the wonders that America has to promise (not to mention the money to send back home to support your country of origin’s government). It makes absolutely no sense to NOT look at “dark-skinned brown people” when looking for illegal Mexican immigrants! To do otherwise would be a tremendous waste of law enforcement’s precious resources.

Okay, I’m going to do something I didn’t really want to ever do here, but I’m going to break this out for you. When you take the oath as a police officer, you hold up your hand, swear to uphold not only the local laws, but also the laws of the state & the Federal governments. Illegality does not stop at city borders. Federal and state officers depend on municipal cops to help them do their job, and it’s imperative that we work together to this end. I know this to be true, because I took that very oath.People, why do we allow this organization to exist? I believe it has waged its own personal jihad against the very things that are woven into the fabric of America - God, Country, Individualism, Prosperity, Personal Responsibility; all tempered with Justice. If the ACLU, a tyrannical regime, continues to have its way imposing their love for international law upon the United States of America, then we, my friends, should be fearing fear itself.

If the Founding Fathers of this great Nation had any inkling that this organization would ever come to pass, I could easily believe that one last item would have been included in the Constitution to criminalize its very existence. The ACLU is truthfully the antithesis to what I believe to be true “civil rights.”

I’ll Bring the Marshmallows! It’s PARTY Time!

I’m already gearing up for the hate mail that is to come, but if you can’t stand the heat (EVERY pun intended), then GET THE HELL OUT OF THE KITCHEN! (photo left courtesy of Fox News)

Today the Australian press, as well as the MSM liberal idiots from the left around the world, are reporting about some Psy-Ops Officers who burned the bodies of a couple of dead Taliban fighters, and then broadcast a loud message calling them cowards, etc., to get them to come out and face our guys!According to the article;


ISLAM VIOLATED

News of the burning of the Taliban fighters in violation of Islamic tradition came as the United States struggled to overcome its tarnished reputation after the sexual humiliation of prisoners at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq and allegations of mistreatment of inmates at the Guantanamo Bay ‘war on terror’ camp in Cuba…..

The SBS Dateline program broadcast footage showing burning corpses on hills above the village of Gondaz, north of Kandahar, reportedly killed by US soldiers the previous night. Flames were seen around the two bodies with their arms and legs outstretched, with a group of five US soldiers standing watching from a rocky ledge.

The troops, members of the US 173rd Airborne said they burned the corpses for health reasons after they had been left out in the open for more than 24 hours, however a US psychological operations unit then broadcast a propaganda message on loudspeakers to Taliban fighters, taunting them to retrieve their dead and fight.

The burning of the corpses contravenes the Geneva Convention and is a practice offensive to Muslims, who bury their dead within 24 hours.

The suspected Taliban deaths occurred during an ambush of a US patrol, in which one American and one Afghan army soldier were killed. The clash took place before Afghanistan’s parliamentary elections last month. US officials to taunt villagers suspected of harbouring insurgents.

The footage showed two US soldiers reading two messages from a notebook that they said had been broadcast earlier.

“Attention Taliban, you are all cowardly dogs,” one message said. “You allowed your fighters to be laid down facing west and burned. You are too scared to retrieve their bodies. This just proves you are the lady boys we always believed you to be.” Another stated: “You attack and run away like women. You call yourself Talibs but you are a disgrace to the Muslim religion and you bring shame upon your family. Come and fight like men instead of the cowardly dogs you are.”

The Australian photojournalist who took the footage, Stephen Dupont (photo right), told SBS the troops apparently wanted to enrage the Taliban so that they would attack.

Well, EXCUSE the hell out of me? I could give TWO SHI*S LESS about a burning Taliban body! Since when do we start coddling to the sensitivities of the Islamofascist, extremist thugs, whose only mission in life is to KILL every infidel that does not convert to Islam? Islam is offended? Well it damn sure sucks being a Taliban fighter right now. My heart is bleeding, and I need someone to pass me a hankie!So they are offended because they call the mistreatment of a Muslim corpse to be an act of “desecration???” By God, then I damn well am not just offended; I’m highly outraged by the 19 sons-a-bitches who flew fuel-laden missiles full of approximately 3,000 LIVING Americans into buildings and structures on 9/11! What the hell do these people think we’re going to do?

I chalk this whole idiotic media debacle and blow-up up to two contributing factors: 1) The MSM, which we all know are monolithic when it comes to bashing this country and our President; and 2) the godforsaken, immoral, reprehensible, anti-American regime that IS the ACLU! This group of Euro-weenie-loving, ass-kissing, socialist commies has every one this country so afraid that we might offend the sensitivities of another country, that these bed-wetting, pantywaisted Leftists out there get their panties in a wad every time they SEE panties on a terrorist thug’s head in a prison during a FRICKING TIME OF WAR!

Does anybody but me not understand, not only what IS, but what is the IMPORTANCE of the “PsyOps Group” of the U.S. Military? Geez-o-petes, people… When in Rome, if you don’t know how to act like a Roman, you will NOT accomplish your mission! In essence, these murderous, raping, pillaging, Islamofascist extremist thugs only understand one thing - and that is violence.

I am personally outraged BY the outrage that is coming out about this! These bastards would sooner kill you and me, and everybody else who is a non-Islam-believing infidel! Where was the media outrage when the American contractors were not only slaughtered, but were tortured, dismemebered, THEN burned and hung in a sick, twisted effigy from a bridge in Falljuah! Did you forget about that? I damn sure didn’t, but the MSM not only forgot about it, but they didn’t even give it any damn thought in the first place!

I also think others who so brutally had their heads sawn off for all to see (yet no MSM to air or publish, save Al-Jazeera) might just very well agree with me. The fact that the United States is expected to adhere to the Geneva Convention and other areas of wonderful International Laws, with which none of these Taliban fighters were a part of, is just nothing short of outrageous and unbelievable!

America, you better wake up and smell the napalm. Because if we continue to allow the likes of the ACLU (the world’s ass-kissers), Amnesty International, et. al, dictate how we execute our wars and protect our country (the BEST country in the world), then we are in sad shape… and that napalm (in the form of a dirty bomb) will be coming soon to a neighborhood near you!

Bend over and grab your ankles, ladies & gentlemen, cause it ain’t gonna be pretty, and NOBODY’S bringing the Vaseline!

~end of rant~ (for the time being…..)

Tancredo Asks the ACLU to Represent Illinois Student

October 17th, 2005 at 09:22 by Site Administrator
****UPDATE 10/27/05*****
At the request of my readers, I have located the name & contact information for the Principal of Larkin High School. His name is Richard Webb, and here’s what is listed underneath his photo:

“As the principal of the building I oversee all programs at Larkin High School including school climate, campus operations, school improvement, and student programming. I can be contacted by calling (847) 888-5200 xt. 5205 or by emailing webb_r/lhs@dns.u46.k12.il.us.

Together We Achieve…Together We Succeed”

What’s this about “togetherness?” Is he speaking about his obvious loyalty to Vicente Fox?? Gimme a break! WRITE AWAY, people!
*************************************************************

Yeah, we’ll hold our breath on this one. Republican Congressman, Tom Tancredo, has asked the ACLU to represent a student who refused to stand for the Mexican National Anthem at his public high school. Apparently Larkin High School in Elgin, Chicago, Illinois, was holding a “cultural awareness” program, and the school officials are none-too-happy with the son of Robert Bedard, who spoke for his son because he is a minor. Bedard:

“…complained that his son was being coerced into showing support for a foreign government, arguing, “I would be happy if they will not try to force students to honor patriotic elements of another culture unless they also honor our flag, our anthem as well.”

Tancredo also wrote to the President of the ACLU requesting that they step in and help this minor who was target by the school’s administration for his personal choice to not participate in this event. Tancredo’s letter in full:

Ms. Nadine Strossen

President

American Civil Liberties Union

125 Broad Street

18th Floor New York, NY 10004

Dear Ms. Strossen,

As you may know, a student in an Illinois public school was recently disciplined by school authorities for choosing to stay seated during the playing of the Mexican National Anthem. According to press reports, the student was concerned that paying homage to a foreign government by standing may have jeopardized his upcoming enlistment in the military.

The case has received some attention in the media, and I was wondering if your organization plans to take any action on behalf of this student, or any of the other students who may have felt coerced by the “officially sponsored” nature of the activity.

As recently as 2003, the Colorado chapter of the ACLU filed a lawsuit in federal district court challenging the constitutionality of school sponsored recitations of the Pledge of Allegiance. The ACLU’s state legal director at that time told the media, “Public expressions of belief in the ideals of liberty and justice should be voluntary, not coerced.” If the ACLU feels that asking students to recite the Pledge of Allegiance constitutes “coercion”, I would imagine you would be equally concerned when students are compelled to pay homage to a foreign nation.

Additionally, one verse of the Mexican Anthem starts with the following words:

For in heaven your eternal destiny, has been written by the hand of God. The ACLU is well known for its ongoing effort to banish religious references from every corner of the American public square, and these lyrics are at least as religious as the Pledge. After reading the words, I was doubly surprised that your group has not already sprung into action to characterize the event as an unconstitutional “establishment of religion.” I look forward to hearing from you on the ACLU’s plans as they apply to this case. Thank you in advance for your time.

Gotta love the zinger at the end! He really gives the ACLU no chance but TO respond, but now, really… are any of us out there who are realistic about what to expect from the ACLU going to hold our breaths over this one? Don’t bet on it. The ACLU cares more about representing the rights of foreign illegals and criminals than they do the rights of American citizens.

I’m anxiously awaiting to see how far this one goes… but again, I’m not holding out high expectations on this one. I think Tancredo is onto something. In fact, it might be a good idea for all of us in the future to demand the ACLU get involved ANYTIME a citizen of the United States has their civil rights violated.. and that includes Christians, Republicans, Conservatives, etc., whenever we are “oppressed” by the looney Left.

Media Bias “Astonishing”

October 17th, 2005 at 08:34 by Ms. Underestimated

Gang, I can’t say it any better than Chris Wallace of Fox News said it to Newsmax.com yesterday. So, accolades to Chris.. and here is the article in toto:

Chris Wallace: Media Bias ‘Astonishing’

“Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace said Friday that since leaving the mainstream networks behind to join Fox he’s noticed an “astonishing” amount of biased reporting on the part of his former colleagues.

“I came from the mainstream media and I didn’t used to feel this way,” Wallace told WRKO Boston radio host Howie Carr.

In radio interviews he does to promote his Sunday broadcast, Wallace said, the questions he gets are almost always slanted against the Bush administration.

“They always ask negative questions about George Bush [like] ‘How much trouble is he in? What’s this mess in Iraq?’” “I mean, it’s quite astonishing to me.”

Wallace said that the success of Fox News is a direct result of bias in the so-called objective press. “Fox News wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for this kind of stuff going on in the mainstream media,” he told Carr.

“That’s why people are fed up with that and want the antidote to it because they get it and they’ve gotten it for years - the so-called bias in the objective press.”

Now I know you looney libs out there are going to say “well, he’s just towing the FNC’s Republican Party line,” but the way he relays questions he gets from the MSM reporters DOES NOT surprise me, because I’ve seen them “in action” (i.e., David Gregory & Terry Moran) attacking Scott McClellan brutally!

Comedy Act Targeted by ACLU

October 17th, 2005 at 07:50 by Site Administrator
Since when is comedy subject to ACLU reproach? Well, it’s happening. It just so happens that this comedy duo has a positive message, and are “faith-based,” the ACLU finds malefaction at one of their flyers being handed out at a public school, according to the Washington Post.
According to the article:

Critics said the trouble is not with the program itself, but with invitations to a “faith-based” party that the pair distributed. Rick and Mick Vigneulle, identical twins, have performed at the White House and conducted chapel sessions for professional baseball teams.

Their Web site says the pair has answered the call to reach unchurched teens, because statistics show that 85% of people who make a profession of faith in Jesus Christ will do so before their 18th birthday.”

But when the twins are cracking jokes onstage at public schools, Rick Vigneulle said yesterday, they are careful to keep it secular. “We work at keeping it that way so there is no misunderstanding,” he said in a phone interview. “Our hope is not to offend but to help a lot of different students from different backgrounds.”

The Vigneulles have been the subject of complaints before, including from the ACLU of Virginia after an appearance at a Williamsburg public school. Kent Willis, the Virginia ACLU executive director, said he did not take issue with the assembly but with the distribution on school property of fliers to attend a faith-based pizza party.

Similar invitations were extended at the Charles County assemblies. “Rick and Mick walk the line,” Willis said. “Their purpose is clearly evangelical, but they do these secular performances as a way of encouraging students to attend the religious events.”

Rick Vigneulle, 51, said he is upfront with school administrators about their intentions at the off-campus pizza parties called “Pizza Blasts.” The fine print of the Charles County flier said the event was a “faith-based program” that was not sponsored by the schools. “We’re going to do ministry to students because that’s who we are,” he said. “We’re not asking those students to join churches. All we’re trying to do is get them a connection.”

What I don’t get is that this group is not trying to promote one religion over the other, and neither is the school? If this comedy duo did not say anything about religion, but just sent out a message of abstinence from drugs, alcohol, and other things, this would not be an issue for the ACLU?
Why is it they are so anti-Christian? They are the same idiots that want to ENSURE rights to Muslims, Atheists, and every other regious groups out there? I just don’t get it.
