Let's just get this out of the way now: 1.) We are Liberal, 2.) We vote Democratic (Unless one of you Republicans service us under the buffet table...then we've been known to cross over once in a while), and 3.) We believe in God. We know, we know...Republicans claimed him as the BFF (Best Friend Forever!) but Jesus put us on speed dial a long time ago.
Now, Attorney General Abbott is working on this whole Ten Comandments on the lawn of the Capitol thing. [FW Startle-Gram, sub requ'd]
I don't mind the Comandments being on the Capitol Grounds, and I do recognize the importance Christianity has had on the U.S. Constitution and the Texas Constitution. (We only have a problem with this thing when people misinterpret the teachings of our BFF Jesus, YO! J! (Gotta give a shout out) and twist them, pervert them, or use them to preach hate and intolerance.
What I think Abbott should be the most embarrassed about? Judge Roy Moore of Alabama filed a 'friend of the court' brief in the case. If I were Abbott, I would run screaming and arms flailing if this whacko tried to be my friend. (Remember him? The Alabama Supreme Court Justice who had the Ten Comandments installed in the Rotunda of the Alabama Supreme Court building in the middle of the night and refused to remove them and was removed from office?)
Ok, we need coffee and we have to forgive ourselves for linking to a story in the Fort-Worth Startle-Gram.
Let's get this straight here: We think sometimes organized religion IS attacked a bit much in this country. While we strongly believe in the separation of Church and State, we are NOT anti-Christian. Our moms would probably slap us if we even dared it!
As for the Giants, their own happiness was short-lived as they lost to - who else?
