I  caught  the Jerry Falwell show this Sunday. Yes, the old butter-ball
is still alive, kicking, and raking in the money hand-over-fist.
 
This  week's  installment of prattle had to do with  "Standing  by  the
office  of  the Presidency," meaning the one in Washington District  of
Columbia, i.e. George Bush et al. Jerry's speech was instigated by  all
the  reports that have come out about George Bushs' illegal,  criminal,
and activities of treason, since he lost his re-election bid (the major
media  has  finally picked up the news reports that  only  the  smaller
media has been reporting on for the past 8 years).
 
Jerry  told  all his sheeple that no matter how much criminal  activity
Bush  has  committed, we should support him because the only laws  that
matter are Gods' laws, not mans'. He then read a few passages from  his
bible,  but he notably missed the one concerning "rendering unto  Cezar
(the  State)" what it has due, which many theologians interpret to mean
following the law of the land.
 
     It  doesn't bother Jerry that Bush armed Saddam Hussein  with
     chemical  weapons, and the weather intelligence  required  to
     use air-borne pathogens effectively, and the resulting deaths
     of   tens  of  thousands  of  Iranian  citizens  and   Kurds.
     (Washington _Post_, December 6Th, 1990.)
     
     Jerry doesn't care about the cocaine and heroin that was  put
     aboard  Pan  AM  flight 103 by his CIA, which  blew  up  over
     Lockerbee, Scotland (Los Angeles _Times_ July 17, 1987).  Nor
     does  he  seem to care about the CIA warning its'  operatives
     off  the airplane minutes before it took off, but failing  to
     warn  the citizens of the bomb they believed to be on  board.
     Nor  does Jerry seem to care about the Reagan / Bush  coverup
     that followed (_Time_, April 27, 1992).
     
     Jerry  doesn't  care  about  the 1,500  dead  civilians  from
     "Operation Just Cause" (Panamanian invasion) whos only reason
     for being killed by American soldiers is because they were in
     the way. Nor does Jerry care about the five-to-one wounded of
     civilians to combatants in the Panama invasion. Jerry doesn't
     care about the coverup that followed the American bombing  of
     the Tropic Hotel in Panama.
     
     Jerry  ignores  200,000  dead in  the  recent  Oil  War  with
     Hussein, where George Bush did everything possible to prevent
     the  Soviet  negotiation that would have lead to a  peaceful,
     face-saving  pullout  of Iraqi forces from  Kuwait.  Official
     American body count of US forces is 23--- Commanded Brets  of
     US  34Th. MASH unit reported personally putting in body  bags
     60  dead  American  boys in the FIRST  HOUR:  where  are  the
     missing bodies? Why was the 34Th's medical records taken away
     AT  GUN POINT, only to vanish somewhere on the trip from  the
     Middle East to Washington?
     
     Does  Jerry  care  about the two million Kurds  that  Harvard
     University estimates will die as the result of the Oil War?
 
Jerry Falwell clearly is part of the problem of moral and ethical decay
in  America, when he tells his cult members that Bush's crimes are okay
because the laws he has broken are "mans' laws, not Gods'." Seems to me
that killing people is something Christians should be just as concerned
about as non-Christains.
