From a Journalist’s Mailbox
                   ....you can be sure of this Carl, the reason you
                   cannot see how wrong you are is that the god of
                   this world, Satan, has blinded your eyes to the
                   truth. May God have mercy on your soul.

                   In Christ,
                   Bill

There are far more than 1500 to 2000 people in
       the United States affeted with these worms on
       the brain.  The proof of that is simple.  How many
       registered democrats are there?

                             Hannity, Rush, Huckabee, Palin and Chuck Norris all show clear

   The USA will see a huge increase in this parasitic infection with the democrat party

                           The UN has already been regulating our farmers
                           because Washington wants them to, has signed away

                           environmentalists can prevent farmers from controlling
                           wild boar herds so we all have equal opportunity to be
                           carriers...

"CDC does not know of a virus or condition that would reanimate the
                           dead (or one that would present zombie-like symptoms)," wrote agency
                           spokesman David Daigle in an email to The Huffington Post.
