I remember somebody trying to explain to me why newer flavors of Christian would by any gargantuan stretch of logic believe they could legislate older flavors of same out of the big icebox of Christianity, but, it wasn't successful.

Every now and then, just to tweak my now evangelical Christian sister, I like to remind her that she was raised Catholic. I don't think she gets it.

The person he ran against was also black, not to mention batshit insane.

Sure, but he was posting high numbers before the Repubs ever got to that sorry stage.

brenda, have you done the thing that you were going to do?

It is done.

Burger King games sell over 2 million copies.

What do you do in that game? Shoot the creepy king guy over and over and over?

don't most of the conservative flavors of evangelical consider both Mormons and Catholics basically a big bowl of weird

Yes, but I think on the whole Mormons peg higher on the "they're probably inspired by Satan and they want your children" meter of the weirdos. Anglicans officially consider Mormons heretical.

I can see the reaction again Mormonism, because it does have some odd underpinnings, but what is the big complaint about Catholics? The officials have better hats and cooler clothes than the conservative ranters?

Congrats on the thing, brenda. Hope the new thing goes well.

Gore has pretty much said he's not going to run in 2008. Edwards is probably my pick right now. I like Obama, but I want him to get some more seasoning.

And yeah, McCain lost any respect I might have had for him.

My senator is a big ball of bitch. Yeah, does seem like a good time for "Have you been tortured? I have. Shut up." Sometimes I think big parts of him died already, and it's just the shell we've been re-electing.

but what is the big complaint about Catholics?

Because the stupid Pope is always trying to tell you what to stupid do.

Because the stupid Pope is always trying to tell you what to stupid do.

That and praying to idols (saints).
