"price of gold is taking off, new highs just like it did under Jimmy Carter.. Thanks Democrats!" Of course, the unraveling of Iraq and the prospects of general chaos in the ME has absolutely nothing to do with it.

Conservative students to display “ACLU nativity scene” November 30, 2006 Yep, this sounds about right: The Young Conservatives of Texas - University of Texas Chapter announced today that they will be displaying an “ACLU Nativity Scene” on the West Mall of the University of Texas campus on Monday and Tuesday, December 4th and 5th. The group’s intent is to raise awareness on the extremity of the ACLU, and bring to light its secular-progressive efforts to remove Christmas from the public sphere. The display, the first of its kind in the nation, will feature characters that are quite a bit different than the standard crèche. “We’ve got Gary and Joseph instead of Mary and Joseph in order to symbolize ACLU support for homosexual marriage, and of course there isn’t a Jesus in the manger,” said Chairman Tony McDonald. “The three Wise Men are Lenin, Marx, and Stalin because the founders of the ACLU were strident supporters of Soviet style Communism. The whole scene is a tongue-in-cheek way of showing the many ways that the ACLU and the far left are out of touch with the values of mainstream America.” However, I think even the ACLU will have some objections to this. Why can’t Gary and Joseph have an adopted child? Do the creators of this “nativity” scene have a problem with gay adoption? I see a lawsuit coming.
