PATRIOT-III The Fudamentalist Manifesto

At a December 5 hearing on CPS's removal of the children, Lafuente reached a compromise with the state to put them in the temporary custody of Mercado's former husband, who also lives in the Dallas area. Mercado says that in the five months since, he has given her liberal visitation rights, but she and Fernandez cannot be left alone with the children, nor can the children sleep at the couple's house.

They also agreed to attend "group treatment for sexual issues" and submitted to extensive psychological exams.

At the group counseling, Mercado says, she has learned that kids in the United States are subject to the most horrendous abuse. "Their parents are on drugs...They're left with relatives who molest them. It's horrible." None of it seems to apply to her and her boyfriend, she says, although they say they attend the sessions regularly and try to partake.

"It's about as useful as tits on a bull," sniffs Chatham.

In their psychological exams, which they made available for this report, the only problems the experts could discern in interviews with the parents were those heaped on them by CPS and the police. And those, too, seemed to be held against them in the less-than-empirical world of psychoanalysis.

"When asked about problems occurring in his life currently, Mr. Fernandez states that the children have been removed, there is little money for lawyers, and it's all a big injustice," wrote Robert Antonetti, a Dallas psychologist who interviewed the couple earlier this year. "He reported currently feeling anxious, angry at the injustice he is enduring and fearful of what may happen. When asked about coping with stress he said he's been praying a lot."

Texas - a State of Mind-lessness. What a Fucked State - and how appropriate that Shrub could 'Govern' such a thing. I drove across it once. Uneventful, fortunately. Imagine what might have happened had I failed a mind-probe by the Home SS.. or they'd discovered we were both unmarried and God-less.

PS - how about a National Fund to help these poor bastards spring their kids and escape from that Hell-hole? I'd contribute in a trice. Nobody should *have* to live there, merely for being impoverished by lie detector tests at one's Own Expense\ufffd - at the behest of the PFY at your friendly computer / photo shop just doin his duty to The State - a la Germany '35 Ashcroft '03.

(Migawd - suppose they'd owned a naked statue too.. Death. No reprieve from Shrub fershure.. now a National Model for Us All!)
