dAngle

Sharron Angle LOVES her JZeus. She’s a conservative Christian in every sense of the word. She has said the God told her to run for U.S. Senate against the heathen Harry Reid. She’s anti-Government, against entitlement programs, immigrants, and, among other things, wants to abolish the Department of Education.

What’s curious is that she actually says she wants to represent Nevadan’s in the very government she says is so bad. She says she’s religious but in all her time in the Nevada state legislature, she never once tried to outlaw gaming, or prostitution, or the loose alcohol laws in the state. Ummm…Didn’t JZeus and His Dad say that gambling and drinking and hooking is bad? Yes. Yes. Yes. But Angle wasn’t listening to her God on those issues.

However, she does hear the voices in her head when it comes to getting rid of the DOE. Makes sense. After all, God didn’t want Adam and Eve to eat from the tree of knowledge. Why? Smart people don’t believe in the Invisible Man in the Sky. Ms. Angle wants us all to walk around wearing fig leaves, just as dumb as a flock of sheep. BTW…ever wonder why a priest calls his peeps “followers” and his “flock?” Now you know.

The thing is…if you read your Bible, you see myriad places where JZeus says to help the sick, elderly and poor. That’s His way of backing universal healthcare, extending unemployment benefits and basically any other entitlement program you can think of. He doesn’t mention abortion, or gay marriage, or immigration (other than “What you do to the least of my children, you also do unto Me.”). So, Ms. Angle…WTF makes you think you can represent Nevada (other than the voices in your head) and do you think the SOG knows that you live here? Just askin’…

Going To Pot

Those of us who live in the Silver State aren’t considered an intelligent bunch. We’re continually at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to things like high school graduation rates, test scores and people goin’ to college.

That said, as Nevadan’s, we pride ourselves on our “live and let live” attitude. We’re the only state in the Union that allows prostitution, we have sports betting and other forms of legal gambling. Heck-fire…we were the divorce capital of the world until the rest of the country shrugged off their Puritanical Underoos and followed suit. So, now we have a dilemma.

They took a poll the other day, as THEY are wont to do, and found out that Nevadan’s are against the legalization and taxation of marijuana. Aye caramba! This, from the same state that gives away alcohol to people who gamble. This from the state that lays claim to “Sin City.” I must be missing something. Nevada is flat broke. No money. It’d seem like a no-brainer to legalize and tax the stuff. But Silver Staters are having none of it. Prostitution? Yes! Cheap alcohol? Yes! Gambling? Yes! Nuclear bombs? You betcha! Pot? NO! I guess now you know why we’re always at the bottom of all those education polls.

The REAL Reasons God Hates Reno

Regular readers of PTB know that we don't put much faith in the "Invisible Man in the Sky." We do believe however, that people can worship anything they want. That's what the USofA is all about. Then here comes the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kansas. It seems that the most God-less church in all of Christdom is of the opinion that God hates Reno. AWESOME! Better to be hated than to be ignored. According to the group’s Web site, God also hates Sweden, Canada, Ireland and Mexico. So much for the Bikini Team, hockey, Lucky Charms and Jose Feliciano. As it is...we thought we'd try to figure out exactly why the big Kahuna is hatin' on the 775. Here's what we figured:

Top Ten Reasons God Hates Reno


10. He’s shorter than John Ascuaga.

9. We don’t care how you spend your money.

8. Our burning bushes are made out of neon.

7. We worship in our own way on Sundays.

6. We covet our neighbor’s wife, his asses and everything else he has. That’s the way the economy works.

5. We think Nevada is God’s country and Nevadan’s are Gods chosen people. That’s why we’re all so good looking.

4. We think the best things God made were the female body, the male body and Lake Tahoe. Not necessarily in that order.

3. We think of beer as “God’s favorite drink.”

2. We don’t care where you stick your woody.

1. We call spending 40 nights in the desert “Burning Man.”
