Fetushists fear mongering?



fern hill found this creepy YouTube at "choicetvnetwork" here; it's the only entry.

It's also being promoted at all the usual fetus lobby sites, like SoConOrNutz, here.

It could be something produced by the antichoice yout' - it has that Faytene and 4mycanada vibe to it.

But the look and sounds of it are ominous and threatening ... like a sniper, or an explosion ... something that a domestic terrorist might send out to create fear, before unleashing a catastrophic event.

Worth reporting to CSIS? Or just let nature run its course and watch as zygote zealots laughably and predictably shoot themselves in the foot on May 22nd?

Antichoice "pre-dead" embrace rebranding for youth.

“The young people seem to be taking over all the older groups and it’s hugely re-energizing,” said 23-year-old Jonathon Van Maren, communications director with the Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform. “And I think that the older generation is recognizing that new tactics, new ideas, new blood in the movement is really what’s going to change it.”

He says youth have come in “droves” to the movement in the last few years.

“I spoke to a rally of older people and I remember the pro-life leader there said ‘Thank God you guys are taking over, now we can finally die.’ They were very worried there because there weren’t people in the pro-life movement and just in the last couple of years it’s just skyrocketed.”

That assertion tends to be anecdotal. Golob says membership in the CLC Youth group has grown to the thousands, but she doesn’t know precisely how many of those have joined in the last few years.
From here, with our emphasis.

On Twitter, CBC Parliament reporter Laura Payton posted some antichoice quotes from Allisa Golob of Campaign Life Coalition.


Throwing out reasons why women may have abortions, Golob says some women don't want to be fat for 9 months.
Anecdotal indeed. Is that why Faytene keeps herself anorectically thin? Fear of pregnancy fat?

The abject transparency of Faytene


DAMMIT JANET! - which is, according to this, a filthy-speaking and vulgar blogsite - has been watching the self-aggrandizing antics of Faytene Kryskow Grasseschi for awhile now.

Bene Diction Blogs On has a co-blogger who dedicates himself to the scrutiny of the minutia of Faytene's MASSIVE dramatics evangelical outpourings.

DJ! is more interested in how she manipulates folks and profitably manages her career to The Greater Good of Faytene. At an event entitled "Forgiven" two years ago, which was ostensibly organized by Former Cree chief Kenny Blacksmith to ‘accept’ the apology PMSHithead made in the House of Commons to Canada’s Aboriginal people, but orchestrated by the same deep pockets that financially supported the Harper Regime©™ rise to power, I noted:

A lot of money was on display, in the state-of-the-art television recording and broadcasting installations. Before the religious pageant started, Faytene Kryskow sauntered through our seating area, in not-kewl hoi polloi territory. Apparently the group sitting in the seats below us had not been given the VIP status they deserved.
David Mainse established the nation's first Christian television show, Crossroads, in 1963. In 1977 he launched 100 Huntley Street, now Canada's longest-running Christian TV program.
As Faytene led Mainse and the dozen or so people in his entourage to reserved seats close to the stage, she apologized for the oversight, blurting out that the Aboriginal volunteers involved in the organization of the event "did not know who the important people were".

Oh really, Faytene? Shouldn't Jesus be the Most Important One to know?
Snort.

Faytene Kryskow and her MASSIVE lobby.

Radio-Canada went where the anglo media feared to tread openly.


Tonight on the television show Enquête will be broadcast an in-depth investigative report about the extent of Kryskow's access on Parliament Hill. "À la droite de Harper" - to the right of Harper. His good buddy *Dokter* McVety will no doubt get a passing nod, as will other fundamentalist religious lobbyists.

From here (Google translation doesn't appear to work, it must be choking on the 200+ comments): Members of Parlement under the influence of Evangelicals? It sounds, from the promo piece, that Kryskow brags of having had hundreds of privileged, sit-down meetings with members of Harper's government: elected MPs, senators and other officials.


Past post about Kryskow's involvement with the HarperCons, here.



Behold Serena Joy from "The Handmaid's Tale" - could that role be in *celebrity evangelical* Faytene's future - no science, no fiction?

How to evangelize.

Start with vulnerable people, malleable individuals or a captive audience.
For the past several years, two U.S. Army posts in Virginia, Fort Eustis and Fort Lee, have been putting on a series of what are called Commanding General's Spiritual Fitness Concerts. [...]

On May 13, 2010, about eighty soldiers, stationed at Fort Eustis while attending a training course, were punished for opting out of attending one of these Christian concerts. The headliner at this concert was a Christian rock band called BarlowGirl, a band that describes itself as taking "an aggressive, almost warrior-like stance when it comes to spreading the gospel and serving God."

Gosh, doesn't that sound like a Faytene Kryskow kind of proselytizing. Amazons for Armageddon? Jezebels for Jay-Zeus?

The Commanding General's Spiritual Fitness Concert Series was the brainchild of Maj. Gen. James E. Chambers, who, according to an article on the Army.mil website, "was reborn as a Christian" at the age of sixteen. According to the article, Chambers held the first concert at Fort Lee within a month of becoming the commanding general of the Combined Arms Support Command and Fort Lee in June 2008. [...]

In the Army.mil article, Maj. Gen. Chambers was quoted as saying, "The idea is not to be a proponent for any one religion. It's to have a mix of different performers with different religious backgrounds." But there has been no "mix of different performers with different religious backgrounds" at these concerts. Every one of them has had evangelical Christian performers, who typically not only perform their music but give their Christian testimony and read from the Bible in between songs.

Well. Isn't that special?

Fortunately, the US Military Religious Freedom Foundation is supporting the soldiers' complaints.

Jesus wants you to know He's not that into you.



After attending this event last Friday, I puzzled and procrastinated for a week about how I'd blog about it.

Part of the challenge was finding the perfect photo to grace my observations. Thanks to Edstock at The Galloping Beaver, I was finally able to bring forth a worthy post. The picture above is the 'before' one, since "Touchdown Jesus" was struck by lightning and burned down this week.

That raised-arms pose was ubiquitous at the Ottawa Civic Centre as 99% of the crowd - most of them pallid christians of European ancestry - swayed to soft rock melodies whilst chanting lyrics such as "Jesus' blood washes white as snow" & "worthy is the Lamb of God" and. It felt like a watered-down rave for middle-aged pentecostal evangelists and assorted charismatics.

After the religious entertainment portion of the evening was done with (including a bizarre choreographed version of first contact between Aboriginal and European folks that glossed over the history of forced religious conversions), Elijah Harper was invited to the stage. His words brought tears to my eyes and elicited a rousing Hallelujah! - he spoke powerfully to the reality of the First Nations people living conditions, spirituality and strength. It was the highlight of the evening, imho.

And. Also. Too. A lot of money was on display, in the state-of-the-art television recording and broadcasting installations. Before the religious pageant started, Faytene Kryskow sauntered through our seating area, in not-kewl hoi polloi territory. Apparently the group sitting in the seats below us had not been given the VIP status they deserved.
David Mainse established the nation's first Christian television show, Crossroads, in 1963. In 1977 he launched 100 Huntley Street, now Canada's longest-running Christian TV program.
As Faytene led Mainse and the dozen or so people in his entourage to reserved seats close to the stage, she apologized for the oversight, blurting out that the Aboriginal volunteers involved in the organization of the event "did not know who the important people were".


Oh really, Faytene? Shouldn't Jesus be the Most Important One to know?

Don't Cry For Me Canada - the Truth is ...

Truthiness, in the prefered, half-baked manner so typical of Con job ReformaTories has re-surfaced with Roxanne's Law - the latest anti-abortion cheval de bataille of Winnipeg MP Bruinooge. Our own fern hill debunked the Lying Lies that the usual suspects have spun in support of their project here, including Rod "Kidneys!" Bruinooge's version of the circumstances that led to Fernando's death.

One of the Bill C-510 rabid supporters is Faytene Kryskow.


Yikes. I should have guessed that gal fancied herself as a potential Lie-Là Rose.


In the unlikely eventuality that Bruinooge's Bill passes, KrystKow wants everyone to know that she would be thrilled to go undercover to fabricate discover evidence of wrong-doing.

Bene Diction Blogs On has been closely following KrystKow's career. Check out BDBO's related entries in the sidebar for more eye-opening information about the not-so-fabulous Faytene and her acolytes.

She is one media-savvy gal, when she's in control of the message that is. These days the chameleon has transformed herself into a devout (and low-rent) version of the go-go girl look worn by Kate Hudson in Nine.

KrystKow's ancestral genes swam in the same pool as Luba Goy. Faytene is destined to age without the brilliant comic's well-earned crinkly laughter lines and her famed ability to laugh at herself.
