			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sally Kern, Oklahoma state legislator from Oklahoma City and a member of the Republican party <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/sally-kerns-proclamation-morality" target="_blank">has brought forth</a> a so-called &#8220;Proclamation for Morality&#8221;:</p>
<blockquote><p>WHEREAS, the people of Oklahoma have a strong tradition of reliance upon the Creator of the Universe; and</p>
<p>WHEREAS, we believe our economic woes are consequences of our greater national moral crisis; and</p>
<p>WHEREAS, this nation has become a world leader in promoting abortion, pornography, same sex marriage, sex trafficking, divorce, illegitimate births, child abuse, and many other forms of debauchery; and</p>
<p>WHEREAS, alarmed that the Government of the United States of America is forsaking the rich Christian heritage upon which this nation was built; and</p>
<p>WHEREAS, grieved that the Office of the president of these United States has refused to uphold the long held tradition of past presidents in giving recognition to our National Day of Prayer; and</p>
<p>WHEREAS, deeply disturbed that the Office of the president of these United States disregards the biblical admonitions to live clean and pure lives by proclaiming an entire month to an immoral behavior;</p>
<p>NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that we the undersigned elected officials of the people of Oklahoma, religious leaders and citizens of the State of Oklahoma, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world, solemnly declare that the HOPE of the great State of Oklahoma and of these United States, rests upon the Principles of Religion and Morality as put forth in the HOLY BIBLE</p></blockquote>
<p>So remember:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Knowing that I&#8217;m not the only who enjoys drinking on Thursdays (<a title="Ariane Sherine" href="http://twitter.com/arianesherine">@ArianeSherine</a>), I&#8217;m just gonna put this one out there, what the hell&#8230;</p>
<p>As a libertarian if there&#8217;s anything I despise more than unnecessary taxation (council tax cough cough) it&#8217;s unions. I&#8217;m willing to give them as much as the benefit that the first unions were most likely created with the best interests of their workers in mind. Nevertheless, recently they have become nothing more than yet another way to coerce and twist the credulous public to suit their needs for either political or personal gain.</p>
<p>There is really nothing that the recent strike on Victoria line accomplishes apart form alienating the very people whose support the protesters hoped to win. These days, unions are nothing more than power-hungry gluttonous organizations. Where is the limit when regular people such as you and me gonna raise their voice and say &#8220;no more of this bullshit&#8221;. Between the economic crisis and the MP&#8217;s scandal the last thing anyone wants to listen to is another hypocritical sindicate strewing lies and empty promises all around the society.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.scibuff.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/unions.jpg" rel="lightbox[352]"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-353" src="http://www.scibuff.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/unions.jpg" alt="" width="512" height="371" /></a></p>
<p>Maybe it&#8217;s time to send the Labour and Tories to a long vacation &#8211; ever heard of Liberals and Green&#8217;s? And no, no screw up on behalf of those in power gives you the right to even consider a fascist and homophobic party such as the BNP.</p>
