Hey Dems did you know Bush&Family are BIG MOONIES??
An excerpt from the Global Policy website:
"On his way to becoming a powerful, influential and controversial political figure, the Rev. Sun Myung Moon has developed a special relationship with the Bush family. After supporting Dubya's election through his flagship publication, The Washington Times, the newspaper's foundation sponsored a prayer luncheon attended by some 1,700 religious, civic, and political leaders the day before Bush's inauguration. The guest list contained a host of religious right luminaries including the Rev. Jerry Falwell, former National Evangelical Association President Don Argue, Trinity Broadcasting Network's Paul Crouch and a host of leaders from the Southern Baptist Convention.
Five years earlier, former President George H. W. Bush was the featured speaker at a Moon-sponsored Buenos Aires banquet -- for which he was reportedly paid $10,000 -- that launched the Rev. Moon's latest Latin American publication "Tiempos del Mundo" (Times of the World). "A lot of my friends in South America don't know about the Washington Times but it is an independent voice," the former president said. "The editors of the Washington Times tell me that never once has the man with the vision interfered with the running of the paper, a paper that in my view brings sanity to Washington DC."
The former president added that he was certain that "Tiempos del Mundo is going to do the same thing." As the New York Press' Michelangelo Signorile recently reported, sometime after "Bush called Moon 'the man with the vision,' the reverend gave him $1 million for his presidential library."

Thanks for sharing SlyCy and thank goodness you escaped that evil empire intact.
Now if we all can only be so lucky as to escape another four years of the Bush syndicate.

Sly, the whole Moonie phenom always astounded me..........and I have never
personally met anyone with any firsthand knowledge.
The closest I came was getting involved with a Born-Again Ministry and living in a ministry house with a group of other Believers and the lifestyle that went along with that.
But I got kicked out of the house, because I chose to have sex.
I remember them telling me, that if I continued to live in a sinful lifestyle and have sex, then I could no longer live there and would have to find a new place to live, but that they loved me and would be praying for me.
I guess Sex is my bane!!!!!! LOL
