True. A quick google search says that you can get a Catholic annulment if one of the parties lied when giving vows, never intending to be faithful. What a perfect religion for Newt - no need to bother buying indulgences or anything. There's a Gingrich clause built right in. :p
 
Re: Obama XXII: Occupy the White House

Meanwhile, Deadmeat said this and more in invoking the Diety in support of his tax hikes:

And so when I talk about our financial institutions playing by the same rules as folks on Main Street, when I talk about making sure insurance companies aren't discriminating against those who are already sick, or making sure that unscrupulous lenders aren't taking advantage of the most vulnerable among us, I do so because I genuinely believe it will make the economy stronger for everybody. But I also do it because I know that far too many neighbors in our country have been hurt and treated unfairly over the last few years, and I believe in God's command to "love thy neighbor as thyself."

As somebody said: the absolute separation of church and state and elimination of religious impulse from government policy. The Constitution demands no less. THREE OUT OF EVERY FOUR YEARS.

"......God d*mn America."

Most of those are state issues. I don't want every state to be identical - that would be boring and against, I believe, what our Founders wanted. We still get to vote with our feet if conditions in one state are too onerous.

How about congressional pay raise? ethics rules, congress insider trading rules, legal bribes (Abraham told some interesting lobby stories), etc... that congress supposedly "self-regulates" goes to the national ballot every 4 years? Maybe they will have empathy of never getting a raise from the "owners" (we the people).

agree Congress interferes with the states too much under the interstate commerce portion. Drug Act (exception Alcohol): basically bypassed needing an amendment. strong arm tactics- drinking age (raised it to 21 when congress threatened hiway funds), marijuana (again congress with the purse strings).

How cute...a Republican whining about a reference to god. Of course, the difference here is the President is invoking his religious beliefs to appeal to the rich to pay their fair share, while the Republicans use religion as an excuse to push an agenda of hate.

he sounds so extremely uncomfortable when he does the Christianity act, it makes me wonder: he does realize he doesn't have to compete on those grounds, doesn't he? He'll either win without it (most likely), or he'll lose. But acting that way can only hurt him. Even the NPR commentary on his election-year religiosity sounds awkward; they don't quite know which tone to take for it. It's like the time, before the mid-terms, when he went to church with his family and it was reported in every national newspaper; why bother? It only aggravates religious people to be taken for retards.

Jesus. He could save a baby from a burning building, but if he didn't also put out the fire folks like you would question his motives.

he was probably an insurance beneficiary on the building. Someone should look into it.

I don't think his motives as president are made more or less pure by his religiosity/lack thereof at all. In fact, I'd generally prefer an atheist be president rather than a "fundamentalist" (in the usual sense) of any religion. I only wonder why he bothers with the act when it's obviously very uncomfortable. I'd respect him more if he didn't.

I prefer to analyze it as more libtard hypocrisy. Amen. "God D*MN America." BTW, you really shouldn't leave out racism.

You would think that "racism" is something different from "hate."

How do you know its an act? No really. That commentary comes off as the same kind of blind dislike with little substance that the entire lineup of Fox has. From wiki:

Two years after graduating, Obama was hired in Chicago as director of the Developing Communities Project (DCP), a church-based community organization originally comprising eight Catholic parishes in Roseland, West Pullman and Riverdale on Chicago's South Side. He helped set up a job training program, a college preparatory tutoring program, and a tenants' rights organization in Altgeld Gardens.

Hate, as defined by libtards, includes gays and others. Racism, as defined by libtards, generally refers to African Americans, and to a lesser extent, Latinos.

So the holy trinity is: Hatred, Racism and Stupidity. Shake well before serving.

You know, on some level you have to give Deadmeat's minister credit. At least he says what he thinks about America, unlike some libtards who think it, but don't have the boys to say it.
 
Re: Obama XXII: Occupy the White House

Yep, we hate America all right. That's why we tried to pass a bill to stimulate the economy and give health care to everyone. Clearly this is the work of an America-hating fascist. On the other hand, you America-lovers gleefully said "Screw the people!" and obstructed anyything that we did to help our people.

You're just a wee bit touchy, aren't you Bunky? And pregnant with celestial fire about how superior you are to us stupid, racist, haters. Sort of a lefty version of Yosemite Sam, aren't you? "God D*MN America."

Just tell us how thrilled you are with Mittens Romney as your hero Old PO'd.

Not especially thrilled. None of 'em give me a reltney. What do I know, in '08 my choice would have been Rudy. But you're stuck with Deadmeat.

As he's going to win the election, I'm happy to be "stuck" with him. Not as good a President as Clinton, but better than the alternatives (and no, I didn't vote for him in the primaries in '08).

On a related note, anybody else see that turnout is down in Nevada vs 2008 for the GOP? With Romney running a double digit deficit in fav/unfavs and a lower than 2008 turnout amongst GOP voters in the 4 swing states that have held primaries/caucuses so far, you'd better hope like hell that the economy tanks between now and election day.

EDIT: From the Las Vegas Sun: Total turnout was 32,930, far less than the 44,000 Republicans who voted in the GOP caucuses in 2008.
