I posted this on Tumblr earlier but thought of sharing it here as well. Obama is not a brown-skinned anti-war socialist who gives away free healthcare… You’re thinking of Jesus.

Is Rick Perry Trying to tell Us Something by Using the Scarlet Letter A?
Rick Perry released a new presidential ad today. Something surely stands out! See if you can spot it in the screen captures below. I know what it is! It’s the “A”, a prominent symbol for atheism. I put it next to a white one to compare to the images from the ad. It looks like it was [...]
Tens of Thousands Chant “Revolution” as protest breaks out in Israel
Recently seen at Alternet: Approximately 30,000 protesters marched in Tel Aviv last night, with social justice activists blocking central streets and chants of “Mubarak. Assad.

The Pro-LIfe stance pretty much says that the right to life supercedes all other rights. This means that the pregnant persons’ right to bodily domain is superceded by the fetus’ right to be alive.

Newt Gingrich warns that the US could be at risk of Atheism AND Radical Islam
Wha-wha-wha-what?! Gingrich apparently doesn’t understand what atheism or secularism is. He may have a faint idea of what radical Islam is but he’s probably not too knowledgeable on that either. To conflate radical theocracy with secularism is insurmountably stupid. What most fundamentalist Christians actually want is theocracy. They are much closer to radical Islam than secularism or atheism is. The [...]
