Mr. Way to Proud of Texas Guy

Bud Light Beer has put together a new “Real Man of Genious” for what the ad calls, “Way to proud of Texas Guy.”

Men from lesser states may know their state capital but you – you know your states bird, tree and reptile.
You display your pride with your Lone Star tattoo… and comtempt for any state that doesn’t start with “Tex” and end with “iss.”

Should I plead guilty now?

Five U2 lyrics I love

5. I wanna go to the foot of the Messiah – to the foot of He who made me see
4. Gloria…in te domine, Gloria…exultate, Gloria…Gloria, Oh Lord, loosen my lips
3. And I can’t tell the difference between ABC News, Hill Street Blues and a preacher on the old time gospel hour – stealing money from the sick and the old. Well the God I believe in isn’t short of cash – Mister!
2. Where you live should not determine whether you live of whether you die.
1. Grace, its a name for a girl. It’s also a thought that changed the world.

Special line for Muslims

Mike Gallagher said on this week on Fox News, that we should have a special line for Muslims at our nation’s airports.

“It’s time to have a Muslims check point line in American airports and have Muslims be scrutinized. You better believe it.”

Are you kidding me?!
How are we going to determine who the Muslims are? Should we require them to put red crescents on their sleeves?
Next we’ll have separate water fountains and separate bathrooms for Muslims, Christians and Jews.
Before long, someone’s going to suggest building a 20-foot wall between American and Canada Mexico.

As reported earlier, one of my favorite billboards reads, “When I said ‘Love your neighbor’ I meant it. – God”

Despite veto stem cell research continues in the US

According to LifeNews:

The Ion Channel Media Group, a private biotechnology and advertising firm, has released a list of the top stem cell research laboratories in the world.
The ranking was compiled using the publication and citation history of nearly 5000 stem cell research labs.
The survey found that most of the laboratories in the top 25 are from the United States, despite President Bush’s limits on using taxpayer funds to pay for any new embryonic stem cell research.
All of the top eight stem cell research labs hail from the U.S., including the number one center, Irving Weissman’s lab at Stanford. Catherine Verfaillie’s laboratory at the University of Minnesota earned the number two spot based upon her work with adult stem cells derived from bone marrow.
