Fudge packers and carpet munchers protest normal marriage

Since Proposition 8 passed in California, the gay community has acted like a bunch of whiny bitches complaining that they are being discriminated against and going on gay parades all over the state. Read about it here.

Whatever.  The electorate has spoken and your little get togethers are not going to change that, at least not this year.  What they are going to do, however, is create a backlash from "normal" people and next time they have an issue on the ballot it's going to lose by twice as much.  Plus, the religious right is going to ride this issue in order to do some fund raising and create more converts. 
Give us some money.

So, all you gays out there, quit your bitchin'.  You lost.  Now bend over and take it like a man.  Or a straight woman.

Nutjobs never sleep.

"Christian" cult leader James Dobson's Focus on the (white suburban) Family is already trying to cash in on Barack Obama being elected President of the United States.  Not waiting to even let him serve one day in office, they have started attacking him in a fundraising email and are already comparing him to the Nazis. Info here.

What the fuck is wrong with these people?

Barack Obama is a Christian.  He has elucidated his faith in Jesus Christ many times over.  Just because he does not accept your narrow, strident and WRONG interpretation of Christianity does not mean that his faith in Jesus Christ is lacking in any way.  And even though Dobson is "grieving" for the  our country,  he offers NO repentance for his support of the Bush Administration, an Administration that has done more to undermine the greatness of America than all of our enemies could ever have hoped to do.  His pathetic take on the election is  here.

The attacks of FOTF do not in any way make me question Barack Obama's faith in God.  It only makes me question what FOTF really believes in.

Eliot Spitzer for Attorney General!!

So the former Governor of New York State will not be charged with anything after he was found to be cavorting with prostitutes.  Story here.  That's good.  The man repented and asked his wife's forgiveness and resigned from his job.  That's enough.

I believe in redemption.  Eliot Spitzer did a great job weeding out evil doers on Wall Street during his time as Attorney General of New York.  Now the country needs someone to do the same.  I think he's the perfect man for the job.

President Elect Obama, please pray about it and then appoint Mr. Spitzer as your next Attorney General.  

Show the world how forgiveness works.

THE END IS NEAR!!

So America has chosen to elect  THE ONE.  Now that Barack Obama has been elected President there are people out there who fear he is the Antichrist.  Really.  Read here.  

In fact, there has even been a surge reported from Google for the keyword "antichrist" since Obama's election. 

Now I don't know anyone who thinks Obama is the Antichrist but a friend of mine spoke to his sister and she told him she thinks Obama's the antichrist.  So I know someone who knows someone who does.  Of course, I also know someone who knows someone who's uncle's friend rode in a spaceship and knows for a fact that Obama is really the son of space aliens because you will note none of his parents are living.  You never know.

But if Obama's the Antichrist, I have to say that probably not altogether a bad thing.  It means he is going to bring peace and prosperity and it means that the Lord is coming soon and this wicked world is short on time.  

Thank GOD.  I really was not looking forward to Sarah Palin running for President in 2012.

Love is stronger than death.

I don't know what it is about homosexuals that scare fundamentalists so much.  According to Tony Perkins, head of the Family Resource Council, the MOST important issue on the ballot this week is Proposition 8 in California. It's more important than the Presidential election, he says.      Read it here.

Now, I don't what he's been doing but after the last four years but I think the Presidential election is pretty damn important.  George W. Bush has been a disaster for American and religious hacks like Perkins wholeheartedly supported him in 2000 and 2004.  Now that it looks like they'll lose their White House guest passes, they figure the Presidential election is not really that big of a deal.

I have to wonder if any of the thousands of families who lost love ones serving this country in Iraq and Afghanistan think a couple of gay caballeros shacking up and calling it marriage is the most important thing on the ballot.  I wonder if the hundreds of thousands of people put out of work this year think gay marriage is the most important thing they will voting on.  Or how about those millions of people who do not have any form of health insurance?  Do they really care about what whether homosexuals call their unions "civil union" or "marriage"?  Because that's all this issue is about: what we call it.  Both sides of this issue are wrong and it's a waste of taxpayer time and money.  It's also distracting from things that really matter.

There are life and death issues that we need to deal with on a National level and which direction this country goes in depends on this election.  But Tony Perkins, James Dobson and the rest of those who deal in religious fear mongering think that the most important thing we have to deal with is what we call it when two people of the same sex decide to love one another. It's pathetic.  

Perhaps these guys don't know that you're never going to change people through the law.  Read Romans.

You change people through love.  They need to love the gays just a little bit more.  Although if they did that, it's possible that they might just like it a little too much.  Maybe that's what's scaring them.

Crazy Shit Happens When Religion Rules

Remember how when Sarah Palin ran the city government in Wasilla, AK they started charging women for their rape kits?  Read about it here.  

Well, the religious right in Somalia has found an easier way: stoning rape victims to death.  Yep. In front of a stadium of more than a 1000 people, a group of men stoned a 13 year old girl, who was raped, to death because they said she was guilty of adultery. Read the whole sad story here. 

I know these were Islamic fundamentalists perpetrating this evil but the punishment for adultery according to the Holy Bible is stoning (Duet. 22:22).  And since this is a Christian nation according to Christian Right, it only follows that we should follow the tenets of the Bible.  To hell with the Constitution, right?  Just think of the money we could make on concessions at these public executions!

Now Jesus, were he here today, would probably be against it.    He always seemed to have a way of screwing up a good stoning (John 8:3-11) and messing with capitalism (Mark 11:15-18). 

Damn liberal.

Only Sarah Palin has First Amendment rights!

That crazy in a sexy sorta way VP candidate thinks that the First Amendment protects her rights to say anything she wants without criticism.  Really.

She thinks that her First Amendment rights are being stripped away because the liberal media elite dare to report her attacks on the Black Liberal Muslim Communist Socialist Satanic candidate Barack Lucifer Antichrist Hussein Hitler Obama Bin Ladin.

I don't know when the last time the Church Lady from Alaska read the Constitution was--   
her thoughts on what the Vice President does were a little off--but one of the main aspects of the First Amendment is Freedom of the PRESS.  I don't know how she missed that part but I guess she must have lost it somewhere between the religion and guns things.

I guess freedom of the press only counts if you're Fox News.
