Greatness is not achieved with violence.(Chichewa/Malawi)
Fire and gunpowder do not sleep together.
Appearing at the primary public entrance to the pre-Inaugural concert at the Lincoln Memorial, representatives from a group calling itself “Brother Ruben and the Official Street Preachers” protested openly-gay Episcopal Gene Robinson’s participation in the event. As the Ashanti of Ghana say,” Fire and gunpowder do not sleep together.”
Everybody loves a fool, but nobody wants him for a son.
The Rev. Gene Robinson, a gay Episcopal bishop, will say a prayer at an inaugural event at the Lincoln Monument on Sunday, a gay and lesbian marching band will take its place in the official presidential parade, and a slew of gay parties and inaugural balls will be held in the nation’s capital before and [...]
When a mosquito flies, it is impossible to tell if it is a male or a female.
Episcopal Bishop V. Gene Robinson, an openly gay man, will be praying for Obama on Sunday at an inaugural event. I remember weeks ago when the Obama transition team announced the choice of the evangelical pastor Rick Warren, an anti-gay man, to deliver the main invocation. That choice was seen as a slap in the [...]
The fetus that is afraid of criticism is never born.
Representative John Conyers has written a letter to colleagues, urging them to join him in publicly opposing the nomination of Dr Sanjay Gupta for Surgeon General. After winning the presidential election, Barack Obama has already faced some criticism from his colleagues for his choices in his cabinet. John Conyers is one of the old school [...]
It is little by little that a bird builds its nest.
President-elect Barack Obama has won another contest: He’s been named Time magazine‘s “Person of the Year” for 2008. Barack Obama is the president-elect of the United States. A Democratic U.S. senator from Illinois since 2005, he was elected president on 4 November 2008 and will take office on 20 January 2009. Obama has spoken often [...]
The heart of the wise man lies quiet like limpid water
Obama‘s staff has declined to respond to even basic questions about the internal review ordered by the president-elect into Illinois Governor Blagojevich‘s alleged efforts to sell Obama’s former Senate seat. The president-elect said that he will respond when the review is finished. As usual, the media machine is speculating: who was in contact with the [...]
Obedience to a woman leads to hell.
The biggest news is still the arrest of Governor Blagojevich. More and more new details about the tapes are being released by the Federal prosecutors. Apparently, it was Blagojevich’s wife’s idea to put pressure on the Tribune Company to fire their editorial board. She was also engaged in the Governor’s attempts to sell Barack Obama‘s [...]
The most stupid chicken always challenges the wildcat.
Life is hard. Life is even harder when you are stupid. The big news in the media is the arrest of the Illinois Governor, accused of trying to sell president-elect Obama‘s Senate seat. Last week, he showed up in Chicago to support a protest by laid-off workers at Republic. He said, responding to the press, [...]
When the right hand washes the left hand and the left hand washes the right hand, both hands become clean
More and more, the liberals are complaining that president-elect Barack Obama is not liberal enough based on his cabinet choices. Apparently, they were expecting the newly elected president to form a “club” of liberals in his cabinet. Barack Obama was elected, not brought at the White House by a revolution in the Bolshevik way. He’s [...]
