ACLU friendly nativity scene


The Young Conservatives of Texas have made an ACLU friendly nativity scene.
For those who can’t see this small the three wise men are Karl Marx, Vladimer Lenin and Josepth Stalin. There is no Mary but two Josephs. The shepard is a terrorist. The angel appears to be Nancy Pelosi. We are told the manger is empty. Merry Christmas.

The Young Conservatives of Texas are planning to erect a “parody” of the Nativity Scene at the University of Texas in Austin to protest the “extremity” of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). According to a spokesman for the YCT “We’ve got Gary and Joseph instead of Mary and Joseph in order to symbolize ACLU support for homosexual marriage, and of course there isn’t a Jesus in the manger,” said Chairman Tony McDonald. “The three Wise Men are Lenin, Marx, and Stalin because the founders of the ACLU were strident supporters of Soviet style Communism. The whole scene is a tongue-in-cheek way of showing the many ways that the ACLU and the far left are out of touch with the values of mainstream America.” The scene will also display a terrorist shepherd and an angel in the form of Nancy Pelosi. So how many conservative Christian Texans will find this humorous or even get the point?

Sydor can now live in Farmers Branch

From Frontburner:

An alert FBvian passes along a snippet from last night’s 6 o’clock sportscast on Channel 8. Dale Hansen said:
“Stars defenseman Darryl Sydor is an American citizen. Became official this morning. And you know what this means — Sydor can live in Farmers Branch now.”
[standing, clapping, sticking index fingers in mouth to make high-pitched whistle]

Amen and Amen.

Hail to the Chief: Dixie Chicks in Dallas

From Frontburner:

It was a good show last night. The Chicks entered to “Hail to the Chief,” and since this was the last tour stop, I thought Natalie Maines might get fiesty. She kinda did. She made a joke about Britney Spears’ crotch, but left politics alone, referring to the band’s past troubles only as “the incident.” They are amazing musicians, as the Morning News attests. But the crowd was sparse. I saw a block of empty seats as close as the fourth row. I wondered how many people like me went for free, the band’s desperate attempt to fill the arena.

Anyone want to explain all the backlash and hoopla over the Dixie Chicks to me? Aren’t our soldiers fighting overseas to give other countries the same rights of free speech that the Dixie Chicks and the rest of American’s have?

200 extensions installed with Firefox


A writer over at CyberNet web site installed 200 extensions to his Firefox browser, resulting in the monstrosity of toolbars (and then some) as you see above.
Anyone want to attempt this with IE?

BTW – I’m really enjoying Firefox and Thunderbird. After a week of use I can’t think of any problems I’ve had with either. No sudden shutdowns, no crazy error messages. Just easy fast browsing.
