How long did you have to look to find that one??

30 seconds........minute tops. A messed up R usually hits the news about once every two weeks.......but then we knew that just by watching the polls after the debates.

Tebow Critics Get "Tebotomy." No Fair Praying?

1.8/2012
joeclarke.net


What a thrilling end to the Denver - Pittsburgh game when Saint Tebow threw the game winning, overtime pass to the similarly remarkable Demaryius Thomas.

Just as interesting as the game itself has been the media's game of trashing Tim Tebow for his praying and showing "excessive celebration" on the field by kneeling on the turf, pointing his fingers up to the Lord, and other Christian confessions.

The media has lightened up a bit after seeing and believing Tim's talent, but the agnostic jock wonks who hated Rush Limbaugh and Dennis Miller for their conservative stances seemed all too anxious to pile on Mr. Tebow.

Here are a few highlights of journalists and jocks who have gotten their heads handed to them (call it a Tebotomy) after another miraculous win by the Denver Broncos:


Rick Snyder, sports writer for the Washington Examiner " Tebow Time Is About To Expire"

Rabbi Joshua Hammerman in the Jewish Week "If Tebow wins you will see an emboldening to burn mosques and bash gays.

Bill Maher of HBO Real Time tweeted "Wow Jesus just f---d Tim Tebow real bad. . . " I faxed HBO on that one, and there has been a boycott of HBO initiated.

Keith Olbermann Countdown To No Ratings on the Al Gore cable channel defended Maher, of course.

Baltimore Ravens Linebacker Terrell Suggs suggests that Tebow prays too much, and "I don't feel comfortable I gotta pray "Oh God, please, save me again."

Detroit Linebacker Stephen Tulloch mocked Tebow in a tweet for his "Tebowing," and performed a mock Tebow during a Detroit Lion game recently. Note: the Lions just lost their chance to advance in the NFL playoffs.

Saturday Night Live mocked Christ (worse than mocking Tebow) last week when "Jesus" entered into the Bronco locker room and suggested that Tebow study the play book more, and pray less.

Sky Jethani, religious writer at the Huffington Post (Yes, they have a Religion section) accused Tebow of being a hypocrite for praying in public, referencing a piece by gay activist Andrew Sullivan.

Andrew Sullivan, flamboyant gay writer, at the Daily Beast accused Tebow of being a hypocrite because he prays in public, contrary to Jesus warnings to "pray in private" in the Sermon on the Mount.

Note to Andrew Sullivan: Sodomy is not a Biblical blessing, contrary to what the Episcopalians and Methodists say, and the Book of Acts in the New Testament mentions public prayer 16 times. I think they understood the commands of Jesus a bit more accurately than Andrew Sullivan.

It really hit home when a former fellow Denver quarterback, Chris Plummer, advised Tebow not to be so flamboyant in expressing his faith

Amidst all this, Tim Tebow has never bashed his critics. In fact, Tim Tebow's response to Chris (named after somebody named Christ, maybe?) was this:

"If you're married, and you have a wife, and you really love your wife, is it good enough to only say to your wife 'I love her' the day you get married? Or should you tell her every single day when you wake up and every opportunity?

"And that's how I feel about my relationship with Jesus Christ is that it is the most important thing in my life. So any time I get an opportunity to tell him that I love him or given an opportunity to shout him out on national TV, I'm gonna take that opportunity. And so I look at it as a relationship that I have with him that I want to give him the honor and glory anytime I have the opportunity. And then right after I give him the honor and glory, I always try to give my teammates the honor and glory.

"And that's how it works because Christ comes first in my life, and then my family, and then my teammates. I respect Jake's opinion, and I really appreciate his compliment of calling me a winner. But I feel like anytime I get the opportunity to give the Lord some praise, he is due for it." Tim Tebow. Amen, brother!!

Herman Cain Victim Of Bill And Hillary Clinton's Feminism

by joeclarke Wednesday, November 02, 2011
joeclarke.net

How the press covered for Billy Bob (BJ Clinton) as he was running for President in 1992.

One of Bill Clinton's earliest public lies was made while being interviewed on 60 Minutes back then. "I did not have relations with Gennifer," was his statement, as he sat beside a more naive looking Hillary on the 60 Minutes set. Was that the interview where the stage lighting came crashing down very close to the Liar 'N Chief?

Hillary was nodding her head in agreement with Bill's confession of chastity,
standing by her man, as she was remembering how many times she screamed at him for his many infidelities during his Governorship in Arkansas. The State Highway Patrol had procured many a lady and girl for him, yet the press nodded and winked at Bill's slutty behavior from then on - throughout his career of whore mongering, all the way up to the DNA stained dress of Monica Lewinsky.

In fact, Clinton's ratings rose during his public humiliation, because that's what makes you popular among Democrats - frequent commission of all the Deadly Sins.Bill Clinton owed his wife, Hillary, big time. And, he has paid big time, including knocks on the head from her tossing everything from ash trays to lamps at him.

Gennifer Flowers later produced tape recordings proving his long term affair with her, and he finally admitted to the affair, only when he was providing testimony (he didn't lie in this one) during his defense for groping recently widowed Kathleen Willy.

Not to mention the believable accusations of rape by Betty Broaddrick even later. And, who could not believe Paula Jones, who became all the more believable as the facts (DNA stained dress) discovered in the Monica Lewinsky case seeped out for over two miserable years as suffered by the American public, as well as Bill and Hillary.

Hillary was so adept during the 1992 Presidential campaign in stifling Bill's women from yakking about their affairs through her Operation Bimbo Eruption (strange thing for a feminist lady to call her fellow ladies), which threatened squealers not to talk about their intrigues with husband Bill. Later in Bill's tenure at the Oval Harem, one of his former babes, a Miss America, was so frightened, she fled to Canada. The press, even today, still will never report on Bill's current girlfriends, who seem to get younger and blonder every day.

So, Herman Cain has been accused of something he could barely remember (that is why he initially admitted as to having no knowledge of his Crime of the Century), and the press, even Fox News, has been down his throat like white on rice, not understanding his original ignorance of a twelve year old story, that was not even a story at the time of the sexual harassment allegations by women who originally agreed not to talk about the "incidents," and who are anonymously making the claims.

It is another Anita Hill moment, as we celebrate 20 years since she tried to deep six Clarence Thomas over a hair on a Coke can. Libs cannot stoop too low.

Strangely, as Bill was getting a lot of strange varieties of women, he was also pushing, back in the 1990's with Hillary's prodding, for the 1994 Violence Against Women Act and other extreme measures which nailed the coffin on men falsely accused of everything from sexual molestation, rape, sexual harassment, and even child abuse. VAWA as it was called, gave ladies such a leg up in the judicial sysystem, that prosecutors could even more easily indict men of the above crimes, as Bill and Hillary's VAWA affirmative action scheme poured billions of dollars into prosecutors' coffers, in order to jail and fine men-accused-by-women like never before. After VAWA was passed sexual harrasment lawsuits tripled. Even against Bill Clinton. Poetic justice?

More and more women and girls could safely come forth and lie their panties off (Duke Rape Case, one of many) and suffer no repercussions for lying and bearing false witness, as it is even today. Since VAWA, women have been given even more inculpability and less responsibility in domestic and criminal courts across the country. I know of cases where men have gone to jail for may years, because of obviously false accusations. Free Tony Cioffi out of Younstown, Ohio is just one of many cases I have been involved with while working in the Prison Ministry. His story is unbelievable. The courts totally bought the story of his wife's accusations during a bitter divorce that he molested his two younger male children, which they recanted years later. The courts do not like to hear recantations. They like to jail. Especially, the lady prosecutors, lady psychologists, lady social workers, lady probation officers, lady judges, and lady lawyers. It started in the Garden of Eden, this enmity between men and women, and Bill Clinton made it worse in many ways.

So Bill and Hillary accelerated the trend of overly protecting girls and women in the judicial system, even while Hillary allowed Bill to freely extort and abuse women at his leisure.

And the press said, and still says, nothing. But Herman Cain . . . . there's a story.
