This is just little something for some of those idiots out there who think Bill Clinton’s sex scandal was more important then any other of his achievements. It’s really funny what you get when you compare Clinton’s list with the list (mostly failures) of our president today. Seriously people. Grow up!!!

• Clinton presided over the longest period of peace-time economic expansion in American history, which included a balanced budget and a reported federal surplus.

• Clinton left office with a 65% approval rating, the highest end-of-presidency rating of any President that came into office after World War II.

• In August 1993, Clinton signed the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993, which passed Congress without a single Republican vote. It cut taxes for 15 million low-income families, made tax cuts available to 90% of small businesses,[37] and raised taxes on the wealthiest 1.2% of taxpayers[38]. Additionally, it mandated that the budget be balanced over a number of years, through the implementation of spending restraints.

• In 1994, Clinton sent U.S. forces to Haiti as part of the negotiated restoration of Jean-Bertrand Aristide’s presidency. He also withdrew U.S. forces from Somalia (1994), where while helping to avert famine they had suffered casualties in a futile effort to capture a Somali warlord. Clinton promoted peace negotiations in the Middle East, which bore fruit in important agreements, and in the former Yugoslavia, which led to a peace agreement in late 1995. He also restored U.S. diplomatic relations with Vietnam in 1995.

• Clinton succeeded in brokering peace negotiations in Northern Ireland between warring Catholics and Protestants

• In 1997, Clinton and the Republicans agreed on a deal that combined tax cuts and reductions in spending to produce the first balanced federal budget in three decades.

• During the eight years of the presidency, the economy expanded by 50% in real terms, and by the end of his tenure the US had a gross national product of $10,000bn - one quarter of the entire world economic output.

• The booming US economy has brought economic benefits right across the income spectrum.

• The unemployment rate has dropped by half, to 4%, a 40-year-low, while the economy has created some 15 million jobs.

• In December 1999, Clinton was among 18 included in Gallup’s List of Widely Admired People of the 20th century, from a poll conducted of the American people.

These kind of videos are used to convert agnostic kids to a new-born Christians. I am warning you that video is disturbing to watch so do it at your own risk. I mean to me it’s disturbing in a really Tom Cruise-Scientology kind of funny way, but you might find different kind of disturbing.

Now, some of you might think this is a repulsive, disgusting and should be banned, but I have a different theory. If a Christian sends this kind of videos to a kid he wants to convert. Let him! If this video does not make that kid realize what “true bullshit” is, then nothing will and he deserves to be gullible and dumb. These kind of videos are actually great tool to make people realize just what kind of bullshit religion really is. It will have opposite effect than what religions hordes expect.

Carlin touches everything from doomed human race, new car smell to voting in his own intelligent and cynical way.
There could be only one simple formula to describe George Carlin.
Carlin=God

Part I

Part II

Have you ever heard your dad telling you that his generation was the best there ever was and that every new generation of kids are getting more corrupted, disrespectful and unmannered.

He probably heard the same thing from his dad and so on. If you dad or someone older starts telling those stories again, just counter it with following quote:

“The children now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise.”

Plato, 2400 Years ago

I was just wondering if we allow people like this to procreate.

HAYDEN, Idaho — A man who believed he bore the “mark of the beast” used a circular saw to cut off one hand, then he cooked it in the microwave and called 911, authorities said.

The man, in his mid-20s, was calm when Kootenai County sheriff’s deputies arrived Saturday in this northern Idaho town. He was in protective custody in the mental health unit of Kootenai Medical Center.

“It had been somewhat cooked by the time the deputy arrived,” sheriff’s Capt. Ben Wolfinger said. “He put a tourniquet on his arm before, so he didn’t bleed to death. That kind of mental illness is just sad.”

It was not immediately clear whether the man has a history of mental illness. Hospital spokeswoman Lisa Johnson would not say whether an attempt was made to reattach the hand, citing patient confidentiality.

The Book of Revelation in the New Testament contains a passage in which an angel is quoted as saying: “If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his mark on the forehead or on the hand, he, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury.”

The book of Matthew also contains the passage: “And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for you whole body to do into hell.”

Latest from Mr. Condell’s library. Pat Robertson, Bible and of course God are on today’s menu. What is strange is that there are still people in the world watching and believing in Pat Robertson as if he is a decent human being.

Pretty self explanatory but so true.
