My dog, though, could perceive the ghost in my house.

She used to really focus on it.

LOL! Dogs do that to fool humans! it's just a dog joke.


Cats are better at it but at least they don't laugh as loud when their humans get all freaked out about it......

Is it just some political thing, to scare the masses into religion.

Well, it might be difficult to connect all the dots here, but I'll try:
(1)Ghosts, (2) Politics, (3)Science, (4)Religion.
(1) This is a Halloween post, right???, By God, with the Comrade Barrack Houssain bin O'bummer administration, this is a Holloween Nightmare and that they are not real but only ghostly gauls.
(2) Politics: see (1) above.
(3) Science: We need a highly scientific group of scientists to disect Comrade Barrack Houssain bin O'bummer to see if he has any micorobe of a functioning brain or is it some kind of a plague he has instilling upon his voters.
(4)Religion: Since the Comrade Barrack Houssain bin O'bummer administration I have become deeply religious. Only God can save us now.

I believe in ghosts and have encountered some strange happenings. I've never heard of ghosts being politicized. Now we're entering the season where people will complain about the negative influences of Halloween( witchcraft, the devil) and people will complain about the people who complain about it( oh those fundamentalist christians are such prudes). Then they'll complain about Christmas being in your face and how its displays shouldn't be in public places, basically the pot calling the kettle black. All that IS politicized and people should just chill out and let others enjoy the Holidays the way they want to even if they don't.
I am religious and believe in the afterlife. I don't necessarily believe in hell per se.

A functioning brain produced this... "Comrade Barrack Houssain bin O'bummer" ???

It's Hussein, BTW. If you're going to ridicule middle names at least spell them correctly...I spelled President Walker's name correctly.

Sorry, but only we, the people, can save ourselves from this mess. It was believing in supermen that got us here in case you hadn't noticed. If you want to get the Commies out of the White house, you need to roll up your sleeves and prepare to get dirty because gods are historically notorious for abandoning their faithful flock when they need help the most. Gods don't overthrow dictators and kings. People do.

One part of me would just as soon let it ride and watch the world go to hell in a hand basket because maybe it's just time for a reboot.
