Operation Straight Up - Not My OSU
While browsing my favorite news sites, blogs and assorted byways in cyberspace, I came across an article about an evangelical celebrity group called “Operation Straight Up” (with the deceptively collegiate acronym “OSU”). Normally, I would dismiss OSU as simply another harmless religious organization with an ambitious (albeit disturbing) mission to bring the “gospel” to the troops:
“Until Every Soldier Hears the Truth!”The mission of OSU Tour: Provide faith-based entertainment to our military creating a lasting impact while using celebrities, NASCAR, professional sports figures, musical artists, and Hollywood actors to share the message of Jesus Christ and the hope that only comes from God, resulting in changed lives. Join us today in addressing the issues of divorce, addictions, pornography, suicide and the fatherless within our military. OSU Tour is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization.
I may not support this mission (or NASCAR, for that matter), but as a lover of freedom of speech, assembly and religious beliefs, I defend any organization’s right to have it. After all, “making disciples of all nations” has been the battle cry of Christians since day one. Hey, whatever rows your boat ashore, Michael.
My outrage over this matter, outrage powerful enough to roust me out of semi-retirement to bring this to my readers’ attention, is the fact that OSU is endorsed, supported (that means our tax dollars, folks) and enabled by the Department of Defense.
OSU is one of “more than 275” non-profit organizations affiliated with “America Supports You,” a DoD program:
AMERICA SUPPORTS YOU“dedicated to connecting members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families with individuals, groups, and businesses from the community who want to support and encourage our military men and women… These groups provide a multitude of services, including financial assistance, sending care packages and letters, and helping our wounded warriors.
I know, I know, I shouldn’t be surprised that the DoD under Evangelical-Rapture-Obsessed-Armageddon-Advancing George W. Bush would promote the vastly hypocritical morality of fundamentalist Christianity on the battlefield; nor should I be disillusioned that the First Amendment is routinely thwarted for this warped and erroneous mindset to justify our occupation of a Muslim country (or any Muslim country of your choice, just throw a dart in that direction, that’s where we are going next), but I am nevertheless outraged. I can’t help it. It’s one of my pet peeves.
My ire was somewhat mollified when I found Jonathan Spinks’ (founder of OSU) web site:
I could spend hours editing and “fisking” this moronic dreck. But, why bother? Mr. Spinks is clearly an idiot; maybe even a dangerous idiot. But the fact that he and his “celebrity” pals combined are not smarter than a fifth grader gave me some reassurance. That, and the dismal reports that OSU's amateurish video game based on the “Left Behind” series, in which the heroes convert or pick off “enemies of Jesus", has been panned by every gamer who sampled it. I’m sure Jesus would be thrilled.
I suppose I could rally my own troops to contact their Congress members to object to this flagrant violation of the Constitution, but what’s the point? I doubt the mission of OSU will be successful, and I’m pretty certain the “Rapture” isn’t coming any time soon. Pay your VISA bills, friends. And, while you’re at it, please sign a petition to impeach these freaks, would you?

I'm not too excited about MC Rove's resignation. You know he has some think tank position or reptilian post lined up.
He'll do his dirty work wherever he goes.

Interesting quote from Dubya;
One of the most -- I think one of the most important and interesting domestic initiatives, which I agree has created an interesting philosophical debate, is to allow faith-based programs and community-based programs to access federal money in order to achieve the results we all want. I mean, for example, if you're trying to encourage people to quit drinking, doesn't it make sense to give people somebody an alternative -- he can maybe go to a government counselor? Or how about somebody who calls upon a higher being to help you quit drinking? All I care about is the results. Sterling, Virginia, Jan. 19, 2006
So much for the separation of church and state.

Let's see.
Yale Grad.
Harvard MBA.
Qualified Interceptor Pilot (F-102 a bitch of an airplane).
Elected Gov.
Reelected by landslide.
Elected Pres.
Reelected.
It is impossible for anyone with that type of resume to be an idiot.
I doubt the same can be said for anyone who would make can claim.

Yale Grad. -- Was accepted because of who he was, not because of any grades or merit. Had Dubya been a regular student from Peoria, he'd never even get an interview. His dad and grandfather were alum. Hello?
Harvard MBA - from all accounts, a lackluster performance and underwhelming achievement.
Qualified Interceptor Pilot (F-102 a bitch of an airplane) - debatable based on his military records if he qualified for much more than PX duty.
Elected Gov - getting elected takes money, not brains. He's got plenty of money.
Reelected by landslide - see above.
Elected Pres - stole that election. It was close, but he still stole it.
Reelected - see above.
No, the brains behind the throne have always been his dad's, Rove's, the Bakers, the Lehmans, etc. etc. etc.
For a good reference and riveting read, see Webster Tarpley's biography of George HW Bush available as a free online ebook and in paperback at a bookstore near you.

I, too, think Rove may have been less dangerous out where we could see what he was doing.

ou always know more than the rest of us, Loretta.
Thanks for putting that into the words I couldn't find.
Does anyone know what the national debt of Britain and America is standing at? I'm really curious.
Apparently, Dubya is going to start picking on Iran's National Guard, or whatever they are called. We better start building bunkers.
Posted by: Mgt | August 16, 2007 03:52 AM
Um, he has decided they are 'terrists' and if that is what they are classified as....Dubya can start messing with their finances.
The world needs protection from Bush! Help!

Roller skates and bikinis right back atcha!

Loretta, I'd love to see you fist Fred Phelps, the Baptist "preacher" who says the service men and women killed by IEDs are proof of God's retribution against homosexuality.

Vix, I think Phelps is an idiot. That really would be a great FISK!
I think the way the OSU is operating is shameful.
It's fine for them to be available for those who want to hear what they have to say, even though I don't in any way agree with their beliefs.
I don't think they have any right to descend on a captive audience (our soldiers) who are already under duress.
Posted by: Nadine | August 21, 2007 02:31 PM
As for roller skates and bikinis; I haven't been near either in many years, and the thought has me in hysterics.
Gotta love that Mgt!

Just saying hello to all the Misfits. It's been awhile since I popped in here, but rest assured, I haven't forgotten any of you. Miss ya'll terribly, just so much going on here; too many "low-paying jobs", so hardly ever home.
Nothing can compare to the new friendships that were made here during the Laci/Scott fiasco. Guess it was sort of a let-down, so to speak, when it was all over. I know I for one spent way too much time on that case, but it was so worth it, meeting such wonderful, intelligent people.
As Bob Hope would say: "Thanks for the memories..."
Take care dear Misfits, and I'll drop in again soon. Bless you all, and Loretta, I hope your love life is still flourishing.

Ok, re the topic above, there IS SOME SANITY:
It’s time to actively strip the so-called war on terror of its religious connotations, not add to them. Because religious wars are not just ugly, they are unwinnable. And despite what Operation Straight Up and its supporters in the Pentagon may think is taking place in Iraq, the Rapture is not a viable exit strategy.

Well, gee. If it wasn't ol' Anne from San Fran back to posting trollish things on my blog in the middle of the night. Gosh, I sure miss having trolls. Not.
However, I guess Anne deserves a response since she is still pathologically obsessed with me, being a Mutt in Muttville, one of the last of the dying breeds of mutts still blathering about what an evil person I am. If I would venture a wild guess, I'd say Anne is posting in Muttville as "Contessa Blockquotessa." Am I close? heh.
So, good ol' Anne, who dates back to the very earliest days of the blog when she would come in here in the middle of the night (even late by Collyforny time) and make ridiculous accusations about how negligent I was to my children, how my son should meet his dad, how I was harming him, blah blah, how I harassed poor Yolonda, how I was seriously deluded about what have you. None of which was any of her business, but did that stop her? Nahhh.
Good ol' Anne, who posts from the SF Public Li-Berry and got kicked off Keri's blog, kicked off YoYo's blog, kicked off my blog and now is having a tantrum at Muttville. Gosh, when you can't get along in Muttville, where ya gonna go to bash Loretta?
Guess you'll have to start yerrr own blob, Anne.
Anyhoo, Let's cut to the heart of Anne's comments that I deleted earlier (so as not to start a troll-feeding frenzy in here, since I have no time to blog-sit).
I know this might just reinforce Anne's perception that I'm an elitist witch, but I really don't care. Some things need clearing up here and she needs a Reality Check.
I miss you, too. I really liked you. I really wanted to be your friend.
Well, Anne. I don't miss you. I stopped letting you post your sanctimonious judgment about me long ago. I didn't then and don't now need your approval. You were never forced to read here or comment here. You always had the option to go elsewhere to get your kicks. You could have read the blog to get your Peterson fix (as thousands did who did not also comment), but instead you took it upon yourself to try to "improve" me. Fix me, straighten me out. As if I needed or wanted you to do that. You were rude. You spit in my face and disrespected me and my blog and then had the audacity to complain that I was unfair to you. Uhhh. This is my property. I own it. Would you continue to invite a house guest who kicked your dog, yelled at your kid and threw your food on the floor? I thikn not. I take you for a civilized person - disturbed, misled, perhaps, but civilized. You were not civil to me. You started it. I would have treated you with kindness if you had not attacked me regularly in the wee hours. That's a fact. Look at what you did and then tell me that my response was unfair. Can you be honest about that?
But you dismissed me, insulted me, and publicly humiliated me, so dastardly, so, claiming that you were better than me, but you're not.
I think you are projecting your own behavior and judgment onto me. I don't have to put up with your insults or leave them on my blog. You had no right to come here and insult me. If you expected me to take your abuse and let it stand, or tell you that your judgment was perfectly acceptable, you were obviously deluded. You stood in judgment of me, not I you. You may revise that history all you like, but there are people here who remember what you posted and can recall the abuse you hurled at me for no reason except that you didn't approve of how I spent my time or what I was doing with my child - none of which was any of your business, by the way. Maybe I shared some of that information in conversation here, but it was not intended as fodder for your harsh reproach. Sorry you were not better received. I doubt anyone in real life would receive that well, either.
You told everyone that I was a drunk.
Well, you used to post like you were drunk. It was a wild guess. I might have been wrong. Sorry. If that's the worst thing I said, that's pretty mild.
You told everyone that my words were incomprehensible, or something like that. It hurt my feelings, big time. It did. I tried my best.
Tried your best to be my friend? Shirley U. Jest. My friends in real life and online do not presume to judge me. They don't insult me. They don't call me a bad mom or tell me what to do with my son in regard to his dad. They respect my opinion and defer to me to do what is best for my child. They don't come in here in the middle of the night and post long-winded judgments about my religion, parental competence, how I spend my time, who I let post here or not, etc.
You took every opportunity you could (including staying with the mutts after most of them disbanded and went on with their lives) to discredit, defame and harass me. Even if you didn't personally interfere with my real life, you have been complicit in others doing so, including Anita/Lora, Charlene, Shina, Dianna/Neptune's Mom (aka MuttMommy), and now the most recent invasion from Stephanie/MadisonMutt.
You sit there and say you oppose people interfering in my real life, yet you continue to associate with people who have done all sorts of harmful things to me - or have tried.
How's that workin' for ya?
Judging by your resurfacing on my blog, once again passing judgment on me where you have no right to do so, you must have some problem with the whole thing.
Nobody's stopping you from supporting Vero. Send her a check. Put your money where your mouth is. I'm sure it will buy a few indulgences for you.
As for me, if you can't apologize to me, I have nothing to say to you.
I wasn't prepared, I didn't expect, I didn't know how to handle all your insults, the way you zapped me, and watching as you zapped me, the way you used me to prove to all your "friends" who remained, that you were better than me. You're not better than me.
If I hurt your widdle feewings because I deleted you and banned you for defecating on my front porch, I would be insulting you further by apologizing, since I am not sorry in the least.
You were never my friend. If you think that what you did was trying to be my friend, you are clearly mistaken about what constitutes friendship.
Have fun in Muttville, Contessa. And watch yer back. The remaining mutts are very sick pups.
Posted by: loretta | August 24, 2007 02:42 PM
And anudder thing, Anne. Quit posting your sanctimonious tripe on Vero's blog as well.
Nobody, least of all one of the people you harassed over these past 2 years, needs your twisted form of "friendship" right now.
Good God. Pray for sanity.

Posted by: loretta | August 25, 2007 09:31 AM
Loretta,
I am a good person and I am a good citizen. You are so wrong about me.
I never got kicked off of Keri's blog, i left it because I couldn't stomach all the Bush supporters when so many people were dying in Iraq. i got kicked off of Yolanda's because she was a huge Bush supporter and all we did was argue.
I think what you did that hurt me most was writing such nasty untrue crap about me and sending it out into the universe. From the very beginning after your daughter's wedding. Many of the things you wrote in this @2:42 pm post about me are untrue. Never happened. i didn't do it. But that doesn't seem to matter to you. You just write it, post it, and walk away. People out there read it and believe it, and you don't care. You take no responsibility. That's the part of you I wanted to change. And I wanted to help you take notice of the part of you that's so angry and bitter, that plays victim, rather than taking responsibility for your own choices and behavior. But you refuse to acknowledge this, which you have every right to do, it's your life. But your life would run a lot smoother if you'd take a look at it, and the reason I know this is because I used to view life like you did, I changed, and my life is very very good.
As for Vero, I am deeply saddened by what she is facing. I know the stages of grief because I've been there. I never intended to cause her any further grief. I only wanted to share what I know, in a effort to try to help her understand the roller coaster ride of emotions I know she is experiencing. My heart is filled with sorrow for Vero and her family.
Maybe it's just a huge personality clash. Maybe my style rubs you and your friends the wrong way. I don't know. I don't have the answer to this one. Maybe it will just have to be one of the unanswered mysteries of my life.
But one thing I know for sure. Healthy and sane people are not hurtful, cruel and mean towards others. There is no excuse for that. Healthy and sane people feel remorse when they hurt others, and they apologize. I know this for certain.
Posted by: Anne | August 25, 2007 05:50 PM
Awright, I can't stay quiet any longer. What the heck is with you People "Anne" & "Anonymous"?? For almost 2 solid years I was a regular reader and participant on this blog and no where in my recollection of Loretta do I find she was anything but a straight shooter, and a lot of good people were drawn together because of her intelligent insight. I have nothing but good memories of those days.
Shame on you both.
Posted by: Linda | August 25, 2007 09:32 PM
Look, this is between me and Loretta. I don't need any help. Let's not turn this into a huge fight where everybody chimes in. I'm sure I'm going to get deleted, any way. I just wanted to say what I said, and I'm glad I said it. As for you Linda, just because you didn't see what happened, doesn't mean it didn't happen. Doesn't make you right.
Posted by: Anne | August 25, 2007 09:44 PM
Loretta is an extremely talented, generous and loyal individual.
And right now it's due to the symathy and attention Ronni is receiving.
Loretta can't stand for people, especially idiots and nutcases, to harass her friends.
So, because of this, she's kicking mutt azz at Ronni's blog... taking them down one by one.
A true friend would protect Ronni. Period.

I was wondering where Loretta was, and then I came across this:
"COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Storms slammed rain-soaked Ohio on Saturday and hundreds of thousands of people in the Midwest were without power after their homes were battered by lashing winds and flooding rains."
I'm going to assume Loretta is without power. The Loretta I know would have deleted what I wrote hours ago.
Let's not carry this on any further, please. i said what I needed to say to Loretta. I don't want want to be part of anyone using Vero's family's tragedy in an attempt to further their own agenda.
I'll wait for Loretta's response. If there is one. If there is none, I won't post here again.
Posted by: Anne | August 25, 2007 11:26 PM

As to the Anne who should leave this front page, you don't want tomess with me.
What ever is you agenda, take it back to your swamp. Loretta has no reason to try to reason with you.
You are out of here, even if you post. Don't you get it. None of us are listening and so please just go to bed.

Good grief. I think I'll leave up the Mutt malarky because it's so far from reality. It's good for others to see how totally off-base they are.
Nothing could be further from the truth. They live in a fantasy world of their own making - full of myths and resentment.
(((yawn))) It's so tedious. It's so excruciatingly boring.
Big Howdy to Linda.
Hey, Harriet.
As my real friends know, I was not powerless, I was out with my boyfriend. It's Saturday night, baby.
I had a wonderful time, as usual. Never thought I would come home to troll postings....man, it's been a long time. Flash from the past!
Nobody asked you Mutts to bother Vero. She knows who her friends are. I've got her back 24/7, even if I am on a date once in awhile or working or not on the computer.
Our reality is not even on the same planet as Muttville.
And, of course, the cowardly anonymous mutt up there posting with AOL (Gee, what a surprise, heh) who thinks I'm mean? Wayull, gosh. I think you're an idiot and a nutcase. So, we're even, mkay?

POOP on your very toes and I hope that you will walk through nothing but merde and doo-doo for all your days. now, please just get out of here. Thank-kew. you are not welcome here. do you need a reminder? or is this enough of a massage to you. We are sweet and gentle here. We have out political opinions and we have an enormous amount of POWER here, so, I think I hear your mother calling you. It is time to go home.

There's my pal, Harriet.
Yeah, Anne, she's not too far from you. Maybe I'll send Robin and Harriet and a few other friends of mine from San Fran to visit you at the Li-Berry.
I know where you are.
You need a new obsession, woman. I haven't thought about you in years. Why don't you find someone else to bother? There are only 57 gazillion other blogs I'm sure would offend you far more than this one.

Yes, Harriet is cranky and will take the back of anyone who needs to sleep.
I will not tolerate rude intrusions or those who need to be put in the effin stocks in the town square. Hmm, I guess you realize that no one wants to stir up my waps necks (sic) WASPS-R-US and we are more seeking than the invisible terrist hummingbird-attack-units-of-GWB. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

ANYTHING NEGATIVE, I will send the very dogs from those potter books, and my own daugter Elizabeth has 2 count them two rottweillers and she will send them where you are.
Oh, dear, anne-onneymouse, you may be alone, however, we are not alone and we cover the globe. If we find your domicile on the gsb then you had better run for your little victim life. I have a berry bright husband of the computer kind and we will find you and we will make you pay for what you have done on this internet that you seem to believe is a free-for-all.
Woops, that would not be the case and you may want to remand your behavior over all. This venue is not any more a free-for-all. Don't you know that the government is watching everything that you do on the internet? Tnis is why you must just evaporate. Do you get it? Or do you need to know more details about the government following every place you go on the internet? Hum, do you get it?
