Here’s another miracle of right-wing thinking (or anti-thinking) from the miraculous Pamela Miracle-Freitag, whereupon every conceivable ill is somehow projected onto those who would advance reason and compassion as noble virtues. In her fantastical universe, there is no calamity that cannot be blamed on Obama, progressives, or Muslims. I wish this were the lone voice of a village idiot but, alas, it is a re-gathering storm that must be reckoned with. This bit o’ bizarre flummery appeared in Wednesday’s (March 20, 2013 CE) editorial section of The Sentinel Record .

Advancement of Progressivism
Dear editor:
May God have mercy on America. If you do not think that the turning away from Christ and the advancement of Progressivism is affecting America, think again. One quick example is the rape of a minor in Steubenville, Ohio. For those of you who are not aware of the case, a 16-year-old girl went to a party, got inebriated and was raped by some football players.
What is astounding about the case is what took place before, during and after the rape. Teens video-recorded the event, took pictures of the young girl, and all was posted on Facebook, YouTube, and tweeted. Not one teen had compassion on the girl, tried to help or came to her defense.
Hundreds of thousands of texts were found on 17 cell phones during the investigation. The judge in the case said during the trial that the things “our children were saying and doing were profane, were ugly.” This is your Progressivism. Since there is no God, there is no one to show right from wrong. If there is a God, he can be anything I want him to be. Where is their conscience? Where is their guidance? Could you see a group of Christian youths doing the same (if a group of Christian teens behaved the same way, you can believe they are not Christian)?
The most horrendous outcome of this tragedy, except the rape itself, was the attitude of the defendants. After the guilty verdict, 16-year-old Ma’Lik responded with, “My life is over.” Not, “Oh my God, what have I done?” or “I am so sorry to have ruined that girl’s life,” nor even an apology to the girl. No, his only thoughts were of himself. “My life is over.” Guess he should have thought about that before he committed rape.
What is America doing to its children? What is Progressivism doing to our kids? They take God out of our schools, crosses out of our yards, Nativity scenes from our streets, His Word out of our books and off the walls of government buildings and believe that the Bible is a work of fantasy. The Christian God is not allowed, but the Muslim God is PC. What is left to fill that void? Their brand of liberalism.
If you have a Bible, read up on Sodom and Gomorrah. If you do not think that America is heading that way, or do not believe in the Word of God, then “Whatever.” Otherwise, pray for revival in America. Pray that it is not too late.

Jacques: I suggest you send a letter in. Melinda will not take any of mine that make an attempt to challenge these nuts. Your verbal ability is far greater than mine – she may accept yours.

Melinda seems to be getting shift-right instructions from higher-up. Not sure anything anti-idiocy will get through in these perilous times…
