Beware Obama and the homosexual money loop: "Wealthy Idiots Meet Idiot Reporter"

Read the comments of this New Republic blog posting for important information about Obama's homosexual money loop that will take all your money if you make more than $250,000 a year.

In a book-promoting lecture at Washington National Cathedral, Garrison Keillor said that the people of the church of his youth "wouldn’t have belonged in the praise churches today, where people gather in big gymnasiums, and they hold their hands up over their heads, and they sing what we call 7-Eleven songs, where you sing seven words 11 times."

Dr Seuss-style review of Da Vinci Code

Ruth Gledhill, religion columnist of the [London] Times, posts a review of The Da Vinci Code that she says has been making the rounds by email.  Excerpt:

I wish I had not paid eight bucks,
This movie really really sucks.
