If you are a local Republican Party supporter, or candidate, and are interested in contributing as an author, we would welcome your contributions to the site as well. Balance is important. «Read the rest of this article»

The Rise of Dominionism, Religion and Politics Part II

By Bill Larson | August 27, 2006 |

Religion should be an important factor in your daily life. There should be a deep and personal relationship between you and your God. While religion can be shared, it can never be forced.

But that is exactly what many activist Christians involved in politics wish to do, convert the heathens via the legal system. They had these same type of people back in Jesus’s time. They were called Pharisees.

Activist Christians are more dangerous than the worst activist judge. It is the job of a judge to interpret the law. A Christian’s sole job is to live a good life.

Some “Christians” have gotten confused about this, in their quest for power over their fellow man. It’s past time for true Christians to set them straight. Call them out, challenge their hypocrisy where ever you see it, in the Pulpit,  Papacy, or on the street. «Read the rest of this article»

A montage of Bushism’s

By Bill Larson | August 25, 2006 |

I have several projects in progress but none ready to be posted yet. So to keep you from getting bored, I post a video or a short story. I was going to stay away from politics until I saw this clip. Once I saw it, I could not resist sharing it with the readers of this site.

Remember this is the man, that the Republicans in the House and Senate have allowed to trash our liberties, our Constitution, and our laws with impunity, by abrogating their responsibility to conduct meaningful oversight of the Executive branch of our government. It’s a sad thing when or representatives abandon their responsibilities in the interest of loyalty to a political party. «Read the rest of this article»

Clarksville Online mentioned on Broadband Reports in reference to CDE’s Fibre referendum

By Bill Larson | August 23, 2006 |

We have posted several articles in reference to the CDE plan to wire every home in Clarksville with Fiber optic connections.

Clarksville will be voting in November, to authorize CDE to form a Telecommunications Authority. I encourage everyone to vote yes on the referendum.

CDE wants to build this network to enable them to read meters, turn on and off electricity for overdue customers, and real time monitoring of the local power grid all from the central office. Once installed these cables can also be used to provide cable television, on-demand video, worldwide video-conferencing, multiple community access TV channels, high speed Internet, and other services, which are not currently offered by Bellsouth or Charter Communications. «Read the rest of this article»
