All thoughts about religious extremism, power hunger, and mind control aside, what really pisses me off of the Christian Right is that they're never for anything, just against. They have so much power and influence that could be used for so many good purposes, but they you never hear about them mobilizing in support of anything that could help a lot of people. It's always a boycott, and attack campaign, or just a public outcry over whatever.
Hey Christianists, try being nice for a change. THAT'S what Jesus would do.

Are you suggesting that our Supreme Being doesn't watch FOX Noise?
Or that God is a Leftie?

What?
No falling fire from the heavens, plagues of locusts, frogs, and snakes, pestilence, scourge, hurricanes, tornados, and earthquakes in diverse places for letting this big-eared anti-ameriKKKan satan occupy God's White House? God is obviously slacking up here.

Some of these people, I think, are getting dangerously close to acting like the angry townspeople from Frankenstein, at least in the psychological sense.
Fearing someone they don't understand (nor at times would want to out of dread, discomfort, piety or outright ignorance (or combinations therein)), they retaliate in a blind haze of misguided solidarity...
Sound familiar?

Those numbers, especially the 3 battleground states with margins over 50%, paint a pretty picture, no?
Pollsters said Obama needed one state to reach an electoral college Presidential rank. It looks like a lot of very unhappy people in 3 states are competing for the honor of reaching that goal.
As Condi, might say "Who knew?"

The Religious Right fails once again on an epic level when it comes to rational political discourse. They are the main reason I left the Republican Party.

Freedom is a double-edged sword. Now the right is focusing on whether he's "qualified" or not. They're reaching. And this is what we're going to have to listen to the whole time a democrat is in office.
Rightists whining that "IT'S NOT FAIR...we were just getting used to screwing the country up!!!"
Obama gets in, rightists are going to complain when he wears the wrong colored tie.
Bush can turn the constitution into a rag, kill thousands of people, and lie lie lie....but the righties wanted Clinton's head on a plate over a blow job.
Let's see...a blow job....or a fascist that slowly takes away your freedoms.
There's no comparison.
If McCain/Palin were to get in office they would just continue down the path of dividing this country further and implementing policy that's just going to screw up our economy further. Not too mention screw the rest of American's that actually live in capitalism. So I guess "insane" makes McCain more qualified than Obama according to the right.
So now we have to deal with this stupidity from the right.

I think this has LESS to do with religion and more to do with him not following the proper procedures to be a candidate. Many have said, he would not pass a "Security Clearance" needed for any government position. So like the DEMS to make up their own rules to live by. And as far as religion,. while I am not a fanatic-I feel sorry for those who think THEY are the only supreme being and we all got here kind of by accident?
Karma is real....it works daily. Americans think its ok to have a religious belief of Muslim faith, Buddists,etc. What happened to "religious tolerance in a free America"??? Maybe you would rather live in Russia or places where people had to hide their Bibles or prayer books? People that want to steal your thoughts or beliefs are far more dangerous than anyone on the planet. - 3 years ago

Exactly how would Obama not pass security clearance? Are you buying into those unsubstantiated viral emails again?
How about Palin and her husband belonging to the Alaskan Independence Party - a group that is so anti-America that they want to SECEDE from the union!!!! Now THAT will not pass any security clearance.

It's clear to see how we're getting to the "left behind" phase of our society. Time to move forward and leave these backward churchies to their failed belief system. Preferably, in Alaska where there is plenty of room for hate mongering.
When these mentally deficient bible nuts out themselves like this, it makes it easy to see why we need educational reform.
Ignore them for what they are and stay focused on keeping their narrow (& comical) belief system out of our Supreme Court. VOTE!

(Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania – 10/21/08) - Philip J. Berg, Esquire, the Attorney who filed suit against Barack H. Obama challenging Senator Obama’s lack of “qualifications” to serve as President of the United States, announced today that Obama and tbe DNC “ADMITTED”, by way of failure to timely respond to Requests for Admissions, all of the numerous specific requests in the Federal lawsuit. Obama is “NOT QUALIFIED” to be President and therefore Obama must immediately withdraw his candidacy for President and the DNC shall substitute a qualified candidate. The case is Berg v. Obama, No. 08-cv-04083.

Now, there is less excitement about McCain than fear of an Obama presidency, Burress said.
