EZEKIEL 20:29 What is the high place - מה הבמה mah habbamah, "what is the high place?" What is it good for? Its being a high place shows it to be a place of idolatry. I called it במה bamah, to mark it with infamy; but ye continue to frequent it, even while it is called במה bamah, to the present day! God said no.I warned my church and was told to hold my tongue.

New Orleans are SELL-OUTS!!!

Barrack Osama comes to the city and promises some money ... and they give him a "King's welcome"... FUCKING ASSHOLES!!!

Why should I have to pay because you IDIOTS wanted to build your houses in a "below the sea-level valley"!!!

We should NOT rebuild New Orleans ... it WILL FLOOD AGAIN!!! Not to mention that hey have that disgraceful "mardi gras" celebration every fucking year celebrating voodoo!

God punished you once... and he WILL do it again!

@DemocraticFreedom If you were really paying attention, you would see that he is. It can't be easy to bring the congress to make any decision. Especially the piss poor senate. Old , white fools set to control this country. It's easy to be a critic and tear things apart. What do you think could be done in order to speed the process of recovery? My home town is starting to build again. Surely, you can be patient enough to let the Pres. fix the mess GW left. All of the pol. took a vac. not just Ob.

@madhatter0110 Wow, I actually agree with you on something.

[madhatter0110]

@twihard201 I believe his Alzheimer's disease didn't set in until several years after he left office. Still, I agree that Reagan was never a very good President. In fact, I would safely say Reagan is by far the most overrated US President of all time.

@interwebbist Yes I know Ms. interwebbist, in "YOUR WORLD" if one is intelligent then they must be crazy. I know... and, just to point out the glaringly obvious.. I wasn't pleading my case, this in my world, is an act presented in a court room for the judge & jury.. not you. I, dear one, was merely pointing out the facts of your observed behaviour & your serious need for mental health care & a psyche evaluation. But wait..With Pres, Obama's reform there is hope for you yet.

@ChowieBear

I love the way you point-by-point pleaded your case so intelligently by attacking me. Big Pharma has a gift for you.
