Another Republican Debate? really? Didn’t catch this one but I’m not amazed. When theres such a wide array of undesirable choices and really nothing factual to be said how hard is it to put on like a thousand of those “debates”.

wow guys after following that debate, thats it, I am now a republican. something about the ability to say anything I want without any consequence of science, truth, reason, logic, or research is really starting to appeal to me.

(highlights were all to rick perry, a man who aside from not believing in science somehow mustered the mental power to nearly mindfuck ron paul into having a heart attack on stage)

Limbaugh today refers to the POTUS as an Oreo, he clarified his intention in the statement and yea it was meant to refer to the President’s race. 
And he still has an FCC license to spew hatespeech.

G-d performs their own miracles and not others’. if what you want from religion is to create your own miracles (or someone else to) then you should enroll in hogwarts and practice witchcraft. prayer and faith are wonderful; but, they are personal between you and G-d (remember G-d listens and does not take requests, prayers are not answered or earned). religion is the answer to why; not how, what, or when.
it kills me to see politicians claim they are doing god’s work, such hubris is a damnable offense. if G-d is as great as we believe, creator of the heavens and earth, then we are not needed to do his work. nor can we presume to understand his intentions. such thinking is the peak of narcissism.
