excellent pic; congrats on the wiki stardom.

as for the antichrist issue, allow me to share this pertinent information....

we believe the preponderance of evidence indicates that the beast with seven horns (alternatively, "antichrist," "evil one," "beast," "thresher," "infidel", "beast with two backs," "terminator," "shrill shrew from hope, ak," "stormin' mormon," "silver-tongued off-white black guy," "short white guy with gorgeous wife," "didn't come back jack, mac," and, oddly, "uncle albert") is almost certainly rudy guiliani, onetime mayor of new york city, aka, sodom, usa.

in the original middle-aramaic edition of the book of revelations (oxford univ press, 1961) the beast is clearly described as

"changeling [who] shows face of man and woman, oft given to wanton discarding of betrotheds via press conference." (4:13)

additionally, this damning passage....

"seas will boil away in foul vapors [literally, "garden state emanations"] and bastard babes at breast best beset burst beast baste bats bets." (6:5) [doesn't make sense to us, either.]

just to let you know, I did not delete the post that was before shutter.chick, they must have decided to take it down themselves.

shutter.chick ~ great comeback, that is why I left the other post up

orionoir ~ thanks, very interesting reading there!
Posted 17 months ago. ( permalink )

shutter.chick says:

Glad you liked it,transplanted mountaineer!

Too bad they deleted it (since now my comeback is to nothing) heehee...they(he/she) also bothered me on my photostream...it's just the most ridiculous accusation I've seen yet in politics(that Barack is the antichrist!) cheez!

If anything, Barack is the anti antichrist if you ask me. Barack is African for "blessed."

By the way, Barack and family belong to the same church that my family does (except for my parents)...the UCC. I'm a Godmother for my youngest nephew who was baptized in the UCC. Does this mean my relatives and I are satanic?ha! The title of his book, "the Audacity of Hope" was taken from a UCC sermon he heard while he was a community organizer in Chicago before he went to Harvard.

orionoir...loved your comments! very funny!

That is awesome that you go to the same church as Obama, I really enjoyed reading his book.

shutter.chick says:

I'm getting really sick of our "friend/s" so even though he/she/they keeps changing their name I not only blocked and deleted them but reported it to flickr because I feel that they are violating the community guidelines...here's a message I sent to them:

Open Your Eyes
I reported you to flickr

read the guidelines, which include the following:

We're a community of many types of people, who all have the right to feel comfortable and who may not think what you think, believe what you believe or see what you see. So, be polite and respectful in your interactions with other members.

back to Barack...
yeah...I knew I liked him and agreed with everything he stands for and then when I read his autobiography I saw that he first started attending UCC way back when he was a community organizer and I thought no wonder I agree with so much of what he has to say...

which book did you read? I read Dreams from My Father(which I really enjoyed too)...

I plan on also reading The Audacity of Hope...

Amatuer critic says:

Senator Obama, he's our man if he can't do it no one can!
I have a suggestion: Let Mrs. Clinton stew in her own lack of integrity.
DON'T ARGUE OR GIVE HER COMEBACKS CREDENSE.
All her suggestions that you have lack of experience are groundless. None of the candidates has experience being PRESIDENT.

transplanted mountaineer says:

mjacoby1973 ~

by questioning who is an American Patriot you prove that you do not know what that phrase even means

the rest of what you say is all lies, he has lead the Pledge of Allegiance in the Congress, does not hate this country, and maybe you should look at John McCains plane it has his name on the tail wing also. They both have the American flag beside the plane number just as the FAA requires.

thanks for your comment though, I love the chance to point out how much of what the Republicans are saying is lies.

It seems that you have deleted your account, who is the coward here?

rcvernors says:

My oldest son is a former U.S. Marine and a proud member of Iraq Veterans Against The War (IVAW.org). They recently marched in a peaceful protest at the Democratic National Convention. When they reached the convention center, Obama sent representatives out to discuss their concerns and also arranged a later meeting with members of the I.V.A.W.

When the same protest group marched to the Republican National Convention they were ignored. McCain refused to speak to them regarding their concerns. Even worse, they were followed everywhere by what they believe were Secret Service Agents, and they were followed and harassed by the local police. Anytime they stepped outside their living quarters the police would start telling them to move along, and move along, and move along, until they were forced back inside to avoid violence from the police force. The Bush administration and current republican party have stripped us of all our rights.

Any vote for the current Republican party is an unpatriotic vote. All patriotic U.S. citizens need to stand-up in an attempt to repair the damage that has been done.

transplanted mountaineer says:

Nothing you say surprises me, I have heard that over 600 people have been arrested for protesting the RNC, I heard about protest outside the DNC but not about arrests and harassment.

McCain is never going to listen to the truth, he lives in his own world of make believe and reality plays no part in his everyday life. Tell your son thank you! for serving this great nation, and also thanks for questioning the Bush administration.

Thank you for the fave!

ONE/MILLION says:

The Cub Scout Promise

I ________ promise to do my best
To do my duty to God and my country,
To help other people, and
To obey the Law of the Pack.

This promise helps Cub Scouts develop a sense of spiritual awareness, loyalty, unselfishness, self-discipline, and service to others.

I ________ promise: A promise is a commitment. To make a promise and then fail to keep it is to break one's word.

To do my best: One person's best is not the same as someone else's best. A Cub Scout should try to better his own record, rather than merely trying to do better than someone else.

To do my duty to God: This phrase means to remember to thank God for good friends, good health, our well-being, our family, and all others who love and help us. Going to worship services is another way of doing our duty to God. We should respect other people's religious beliefs even if they are different from our own.

And my country: Duty to country starts with being a good citizen. This means caring about the people in our communities and helping those in need. Good citizenship also means obeying the law and using our country's resources carefully. We show love for our country by respecting and saluting the U.S. flag and standing at attention when our national anthem is played.

To help other people: For Cub Scouts, helping other people may mean helping at home by taking out the garbage or making their bed without grumbling. A Cub Scout can also help others by befriending a new student in school, making holiday cards for older people, raking leaves or clearing snow for a neighbor, providing games for children living in shelters, or collecting food for people who don't have enough to eat. Helping others is not always easy to do. We must think about other people instead of ourselves—even when it might be inconvenient.

And to obey the Law of the Pack: A Cub Scout should follow the laws of the land, the rules in his school, the rules in his home, and the rules in his den and pack.

Aaron Escobar™ says:

John McCain is someone we can trust, someone who dedicated his whole life for America. He is a man of principles and honour. Instead of spreading wealth around, John McCain & Sarah Palin will spread opportunity.
Barack Obama will raise taxes on hardworking Americans to give a government handout to the 40% of Americans who pay no income taxes.

John McCain and Sarah Palin have an economic plan that celebrates the American dream of opportunity, not government giveaways. In this country, we believe in spreading opportunity, for those who need jobs and those who create them. While Barack Obama is ready to "spread the wealth around," John McCain has a plan to get our economy moving so everyone has access to good jobs, a quality education and the opportunity to succeed.

Vote for McCain! John McCain is our only chance!

This guy will soon be president of the United States of America

transplanted mountaineer says:

Aaron, I agree that McCain is an honorable American, and for that reason I have to ask why is he having his campaign spread lies about Barack Obama.

You say that 40% of Americans do not pay income tax? That is incorrect.

I like most of America make less than $200,000 a year so I will get a tax cut under Obama's tax plan. Under McCains plan my health insurance payments that are pretaxed now, will be taxed. I only take home 70% of my paycheck as it is, under McCain I would get even less.

John McCain admitted that he "doesn't really understand how the economy works" There are many more hurdles to come on the economic front and I want somebody that knows what he is doing in charge.

I hope you appreciate that I will talk to you about the issues even though we disagree, but will you please change your picture to a smaller version so it wont take as long for the thread to load? I have high speed but some people who visit my site do not.
