Dear Georgina Yabba "Dubya" Dooooooo Bush,

At Bible study the other night we read Proverbs 6-7.

When we got to Proverbs 6:16-19 I couldn't help but think of you.....

6:16 There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him:

6:17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,

6:18 a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil,

6:19 a false witness who pours out lies, and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.

WOW, Georgina, you have managed to hit all seven.......

Wonder what the Lord has in store for you?

Here are also some interesting quotes from the Founding Fathers of the United States of America. The incredible men who left England and started a new nation to get away from another tyrant named Georgina.....

When you read their words, what do you think they would say to you?

1. "As Mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice and liberality." George Washington First president of US (1732 - 1799)

2. "Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear." Thomas Jefferson 3rd president of US (1743 - 1826)

3.  "He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself." Thomas Jefferson

4. "Government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, a troublesome servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action." George Washington First president of US (1732 - 1799)

5. "All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian, or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit." Thomas Paine

6. "I never told my religion nor scrutinize that of another. I never attempted to make a convert nor wished to change another's creed. I have judged of others' religion by their lives, for it is from our lives and not from our words that our religion must be read. By the same test must the world judge me." Thomas Jefferson 3rd president of US (1743 - 1826)

7.  "The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others." Thomas Jefferson, Notes on the State of Virginia, 1781-82 3rd president of US (1743 - 1826)

8. "Whenever we read the obscene stories, voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and tortuous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness, with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we called it the word of a Demon than the word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind, and, for my part, I sincerely detest it as I detest everything that is cruel." Thomas Paine US patriot & political philosopher (1737 - 1809)

9. "I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations." James Madison 4th president of US (1751 - 1836)

10. "It is the duty of every patriot to protect his country from its government." Thomas Paine US patriot & political philosopher (1737 - 1809)

11. "There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty." , Journal, 1772 John Adams US diplomat & politician (1735 - 1826)

12. "Our act for freedom of religion will produce considerable good even in those countries where ignorance, superstition, poverty, and oppression of body and mind in every form, are so firmly settled on the mass of the people, that their redemption from them can never be hoped." Thomas Jefferson

13. "That no man shall be compelled to frequent or support any religious worship, place or ministry whatsoever, nor shall be enforced, restrained, molested, or burdened in his body or goods, nor shall otherwise suffer on account of his religious opinions or belief; but that all men shall be free to profess, and by argument to maintain, their opinions in matters of religion, and that the same shall in no wise diminish, enlarge or affect their civil capacities." Thomas Jefferson 1779

14. "The proposition that the people are the best keepers of their own liberties is not true. They are the worst conceivable, they are no keepers at all; they can neither judge, act, think, or will, as a political body." John Adams US diplomat & politician (1735 - 1826)

15. "I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." Thomas Jefferson 3rd president of US (1743 - 1826)

16. "Because freedom of religion affects every individual. State churches that use government power to support themselves and force their views on persons of other faiths undermine all our civil rights. Moreover, state support of the church tends to make the clergy unresponsive to the people and leads to corruption within religion. Erecting the "wall of separation between church and state," therefore, is absolutely essential in a free society." Thomas Jefferson, 3rd president of US (1743 - 1826)

17.  "The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has so soaked the soil of Europe in blood for centuries." James Madison, Founding Father 4^th president of United States.
