Killer hiccups.

Yard sale starting at ohdark thirty tomorrow morning.

No way I’m trying to do a show tonight. See you next week, though – I promise.

Chat ya later…

First – empirical proof that Global Warming is not happening – Hell has, in fact, frozen over. Witness the fact that the Saints are in the Super Bowl.

Second, this little bit of wit passing about the interwebs:

Dear God,
Last year you took my favorite entertainer (Michael Jackson), my favorite actor (Patrick Swayze), and my favorite pin-up girl (Farrah).
Just to let you know, some of my favorite politicians are Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid.

Updated 2/9/10: Thank you, Lord, for not making me type in K-nn-dy and M-rth- on my laptop – I don’t think it would have survived the pounding.

As you may know, a RINO is a Republican In Name Only – that is, they claim to have an “R” following their name, but they act like DemocRATs. Perfect examples of RINOs would be Olympia Snowe (R, Maine) and John McCain (R, Arizona). Both of these RINOs claim to be of the GOP but act in support of the Democrat arty’s platform in everything they do – Snowe is very supportive of the ObamaCare bill, and if you recall a certain Amnesty program a few years ago called the McCain Kennedy Illegal Citizenship Bill …

Join me tonight at 2200 MST on The “O” Word to talk about RINOs and the danger they represent to the true Conservatives of these United States.

On my Friday night show, The “O” Word, the topic of discussion was a poseur, who went by the handle of “Tigerbo” and claimed to be a 30-year combat veteran and a retired Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel who was suffering from PTSD and successfully fighting off a harrowing case of bone marrow cancer and had suffered through the death of his wife “in his arms.” Turns out that John Dawson was none of those things – and, in fact, his (now ex-)wife had not died in his arms, but in her owns words had nearly “died at his hands.” He washed out of Marine Corps boot camp and never served a day in the military.

During the show, a listener (Patriotgreg, a fine man, naturalized American Citizen, Christian, and all-around good guy) got pretty heated in the chat room and kept trying to bring “Christian Compassion” into the discussion of whether or not what John had done was deserving of our pity, or what path we should take when dealing with him. It was Patriotgreg’s position that until we heard from John directly, we should not judge him. Another guest, Pastor Ed, had in fact talked to John about the whole thing and John had denied any wrong doing.

I want to focus on the “Christian Compassion” part of Patriotgreg’s statement. He is sure that we need to have more compassion, and give John the benefit of the doubt. I and several of my listeners disagreed, and unfortunately Greg left the show in a huff.

I believe that “Christian Compassion” is not, as Greg asserted, giving someone a free pass when that person has transgressed. I believe that “Christian Compassion” is, instead, holding that person to the standards that are found throughout the Bible. That is, it is more compassionate to hold each other to Christ’s standards than to let a fellow Christian slide away from Him. By allowing a brother or sister to slide away, you would be helping to condemn him or her (and yourself!) to eternal life apart from Christ. By holding your brothers and sisters to the high standards of Christ-like living, and expecting them to hold you to the same standards, you are confirming your faith in Christ and (helping to) ensuring their eternal life WITH Christ.

For more on the story, please listen to the podcast (ignore the first several minutes where I once again couldn’t get audio to work) and chime in in the comments below.

It’s not often that I am ashamed of my actions. This is one of those rare times.

I have lead my listeners to believe that one John “Tigerbo” Dawson is a medically retired Marine Lt. Col, suffering from PTSD, and with an amazing testimony as to his miraculous come back from a horrible dance with death.

I found out earlier from a friend on Facebook that this Paper Tiger has a lot of people fooled. The details are over on Chandler’s Watch, and while Chandler is beating himself up over the lack of vetting, he is not the only one to have been taken in by the Scam Artist Formerly Known As Tigerbo. We all failed, Chandler, by accepting him at his word and not properly vetting this man. Know that you are not alone in this, and I will be addressing this issue tonight on The “O” Word at 2200 MST. If you have been taken in by this pretender, please consider calling in and sharing your Tiger’s Tale.
