<p>Tell me it isn’t plausible. ;)</p>
<p>Hey Z - I was referring to the “Behold, I stand at the door and knock” passage in the Bible (Rev 3:20)! Haha! </p>
<p>(Just hoping that you-know-who might be getting a little nudge about God’s presence & love from the “God is Love” comment. It’s doubtful, but we gotta plant those seeds when we can!)</p>
<p>BTW, #144 - Funny story, and all too plausible, unfortunately!</p>

<p>I only wish my Mother wee still alive so I could share the story you posted with her! She was the ultimate consevative! I have a cute story about my Mom and my kids I will share…</p>
<p>My son and daughter had just returned from a visit to Grandma and Grandpa’s home in Kansas City. They we pretty young at the time. We had a pediatrician appointment for back-to-school check-ups right after they returned. My pediatrician (on the liberal side, but a great Dr.) entered the exam room and began ,as usual ,making small talk with the children. He asked them if they knew what very important man was visiting a local college in Los Angeles. They sat quietly and he hinted once again. He then proceeded to tell them it was our President Bill Clinton. Upon hearing that my dear little daughter started spewing forth “that blankety-blank-blank?”. I gracefully put my arm around my daughter and my hand cupped over her mouth before more came out.</p>
<p>The doctor looked puzzled and shocked indeed and I told him that the kids had returned from a grandparent visit and my Mother had a penchant for listening to C-Span, talk radio and conservative television programming and commenting LOUDLY as she listened!</p>
<p>Out of the mouths of babes!</p>

<p>Let me close my office door before my employees think I’ve COMPLETELY flipped!</p>
<p>ROFLMAO!</p>
<p>Smart kid! :D</p>
<p>New York Times…Feburary 1945.</p>
<p>It was announced today that General Dwight Eisenhower was relieved of command and placed under arrest pending a court marshal.</p>
<p>Sources revealed that the General had placed numerous German SS troops in informal prisons WITHOUT advising them of their rights or allowing ACLU attorneys to see their clients.
The ACLU has demanded the prisoners be immediately released, and called for the closing of secret prisons in North Africa, Missouri and Texas.</p>
<p>This follows the outrageous incident in December 1944 at the so-called “Battle of the Bulge” in which German troops dressed in American uniforms were simply taken out and shot out of hand without benefit of due process, or a fair trial.</p>
<p>The Times has learned that there are on-going investigations into the treatment of young German civilians reputed to be members of a Boy Scout-like organization known as “Werewolves”.
The military suspect these children of committing acts of sabotage and assassination of American troops, currently invading Germany in FDR’s questionable “war” against Germany.</p>
<p>There are reports that American troops have imprisoned and executed without trial German “Werewolf” youths suspected of engaging in protests against the American occupation of their country.</p>
<p>Critics of the current Administration continue to question the circumstances that led us into this war.
Questions go unanswered as to how the US wound up in a war against Germany when it was Japan who lashed out at America because of our embargo against the Japanese people.
The administration continues to refer to the 12-7 incident as a “Dastardly attack”.</p>
<p>In related news, the Times has learned from a whistle-blower that the US military has been engaged in a secret program known as “The Manhattan Project”.
Apparently the military has spent billions of Dollars in unaccountable funds developing a terror weapon which they intend to use on the civilian population of Japan.</p>
<p>Sources say that racist feeling among top military officers is driving the project to punish the Japanese people for the reputed incident known as the “Bataan Dead March” in which a tiny handful of Japanese troops failed to adequately protect captured Americans from the anger of the Philippine people.
The violence was apparently over the abusive colonial system put in place after America illegally seized the Philippines after our brutal and unprovoked war against Spain.
The Times publisher responded to administration charges that revealing the top secret program has put America and American troops in serious danger, by saying “The people have a Right to Know”.</p>
<p>Senate Democrats demanded that the administration turn over all records about president Roosevelt’s rush to war, and the faulty intelligence that was responsible.
Senator Blumpf demanded to know “What the president knew, and when did he know it”.</p>
<p>Senator Blumpf is also demanding an investigation into incidents of American troops killing German civilians during the current operations.
The Senator stated that while he was interested in vague reports of mass graves in Germany and Poland, the important thing is to insure that American troops who kill civilians be immediately brought to justice, even if that adversely affects morale.
Senator Blumpf again stated that “We of course support the troops, but we need to bring them home NOW”.</p>
<p>The Times continues to investigate the secret and illegal collection of telephone numbers that are making and receiving calls between telephones here in America and phones in Germany, Italy, and Japan.</p>
<p>Sources say that the death this week of Nazi Freedom fighter Heinrich Himmler will have no effect on the “war”, and that Himmler was really just a figurehead.
There are questions about whether Himmler was abused by American troops before dying of injuries sustained in an attack by an American P-51 aircraft.
There are reports that innocent women may have been killed in the air strike, and critics of the “war” effort are calling for investigations.</p>
