Impeach Obama

Or, to paraphrase some religious book, let they who are without sin cast the first stone.

I've got a funny/horrifying story about that phrase (delete as applicable).

I went to a Church of England secondary school. It was a nice, new school (I was the second year to start there) but it wasn't in the best part of town. We used to have vicars come in regularly to do talks for our morning assemblies, they were always shite but only went on for around 20 minutes.

One day we walked into the assembly hall and saw stones on every seat. Not that small either, they were a decent size. There were only years 7 and 8 in the hall, maybe around 200 kids, all with stones on there seats. We sat down and the vicar did his bit. After a while he said "now I believe you should practice what you preach, and as I have sinned, I'm going to lie here and say to you all "let he who is without sin cast the first stone." If you can say in good conscience that you have not sinned, feel free to cast your stone on me". He lay down. Everyone looked around, confused. After about 10 seconds of silence I heard someone say "fuck it", then they stood up and threw their stone. It was like a domino effect, one went and everyone else followed. For about 30 seconds there was just the sound of stone hitting wood as this poor vicar got stoned at the front of the hall. We got a bollocking for that.

Looks like he can go into direct competition with George W and Biden in terms of stupidity. Serious injuries?

Nah, he had a gash on his head and a few scrapes and bruises. I don't know why he thought it was a good idea to give a bunch of 12 and 13 year olds stones and say "throw them at me if you want". Needless to say we didn't see him at the school again.

in case some of you are curious the meaning of the story is this

Jesus was saying "... without sin be the first to throw a stone ..." while he was writing on the ground of the temple with his finger. The temple ground was made of stones, so Jesus was engraving on stones just with his finger. The bad guys retreated (or did not throw the stone ) not because they got so rational all of a sudden, and realized they all were also sinners. Hell no. They got scared of a person writing on stone which was a direct hint to God who wrote/engraved 10 commandments on the stone. The message of Jesus to these self-righteous jerks was "who are you to tell me about the law when it was I who gave it in the first place"

THis pastor in the above story apparently did not take time to really udnerstand what was written in the bible and got taught a painfull lesson

Great story.

Considering this man is spying on everything you do, then surely more of you should be voting for impeachment. The latest NSA reports are beyond shocking. This fascistic administration is spying on everything. I know I am being observed too, but frankly I don't care. They are scaring you into submission, but they are just pot bellied freaks behind desks. You Americans have guns, take to those streets, and prove yourselves. Take back your country, get him out. Ron Paul would be an ideal interim man to steady the ship.
