Why do all these jack offs want to live in the 1700s?

Because they were still burning witches?

What I always find terrifying about some of these people is that they associate morality with god. As if someone can’t be moral without religion, that it’s only through fear of eternal damnation that keeps them from running someone over with their car or helping out a homeless person.

It’s worse than that. These religious extremists don’t merely believe godliness is the only path to morality, they believe godliness is morality. For them, immorality is incidental to what they denounce as the real sin, not believing in their version of God observed in their way. You can be as good as a person can be and the fascists among them will still march your atheist hide into the gas chambers while the rest stand idly by and pray for your soul. Are all Christians like that? Of course not. But not all Persian Muslims are either, and yet not enough people took a stand to stop Iran falling into the hands of a fascist government.

Do tolerant Christians outnumber intolerant ones? Wrong question. What’s at stake is whether tolerant Christians will stand up to intolerant Christians. And yes, the same goes for all ideologies, but Christianity is the ideology that get’s US presidents elected.

Nehemiah Scudder for dictator…er, President!

We need GOD in America. . . but only a god of our approval (like the one Jews and Christians prefer, not that weird “Allah” god, or any of those really really weird elephant and monkey gods the guy at the 7-11 likes.)

The person (or people) who brainwashed this poor child should be indicted for child abuse. Of course, in the process they threatened her with torture (ie, “hell”), so they should be charged with terroristic threats, as well, under TITLE 18, PART I, CHAPTER 113C, § 2340 (2A).

Do you honestly think a comment like that helps anyone? I get that you might sincerely believe that, but it isn’t remotely realistic and you’re essentially handing these fundies their straw man.

Are those vuvuzuelas sounding at the end of the video?

Can’t be…“vuvuzuela” sounds too much like “vulva” and everybody knows good Christians don’t put their mouths on those things.

What do you mean “most likely to get elected”? Hillary Clinton’s a shoe-in. All the Republican candidates are morons like this, but none of the Democratic front-runners are–certainly not Clinton or Sanders. The chances of this country electing any of the Republican candidates is slim to none outside the Religious Right circles, because the Christers have driven all the moderate Republicans into hiding and only loonies are up for grabs. I’m praying for a Ted Cruz nomination, because it will be HYSTERICAL to see that stooge in a debate against Clinton or Sanders.

Xeni, I think you’re wrong that a Republican will win the election next time around - precisely because they are so scary!

The Constitution is and should be unchanging and perfect

Wellllll…almost perfect. Right, Scott Walker?

At this resolution, it looks like foam is forming at the sides of her mouth.

Zulu vulvas?

How is that a poem?

And what does it mean, that the “poem” was “revised” by someone other than the poet?

This is basic English, which doesn’t have to be twisted like science or math to fit the fundamentalist worldview. Has she gotten a functional education in any subject?

Alas, only four times in American history has one Democratic president succeeded another. The last time it happened by election (as opposed to the predecessor dying in office) was in 1856, and James Buchanan’s policies were widely seen as helping to precipitate the the Civil War, or at the very least failing to prepare for its inevitability. I suspect Xeni is grimly aware that the Oval Office has a tendency to fall back into GOP hands following a Democratic administration.

Here’s hoping 2016 bucks the trend.

White people are fucked up.
Black people are fucked up.

Meaningless blanket statement.

Well, I got to 1:45, but in fits and starts. It’s not just her message but her strident tone, upspeak, and lazy enunciation as well.

It must have been in disguise.

Don’t forget the bad acting.
