The mere fact that a preacher would say "goddamn" three times in a minute or "I love the hell out of Jesus" would be enough for me to walk out. That and the notion that Jesus was black. #12

We are still waiting for all the other crooks to have their day in court. Regarding the Obama family preacher scandal...we know many Democrats have not hidden their hatred of their home country which has afforded them so many liberties. When the rocks are turned over occasionally, the sunshine must pain them dearly. Can we please have the MSM quiz Ms. Obama to find out if she agrees with her preacher on his anti American tirades? Considering her never, ever, once being proud of being an American til this year during her husbands campaign, I think it is appropriate.

What in the world do you get for that kind of money? Does the fee include props? BTW: while Kevin's post was off-topic, the aforementioned state rep did indeed utter this nonsense (see Tulsa World). Sometimes, I am ashamed to be an Okie. Spitzer’s hypocrisy and the fact that he could spend $5K/hour on a hooker is what got the story going. What in the world do you get for that kind of money?

So why don’t you try to engage us on the issues we address rather than fault us for failing to consider every crazy anti-gay comment ever made.
But then I guess it’s easier to insult than it is to engage.

Sally Kern, say (among other things) that gays are the biggest threat to this country, even more so than terrorism, that we indoctrinate children as young as 2 to make them gay and that gays are infiltrating city councils as (gasp) elected officials!  It's interesting that Ms. Kern supposedly has all kinds of facts and studies to support the statements she made.
