AMERICAblog: "Prominent evangelical leaders" to McCain: Don't pick Mitt. We don't trust him.

  • nicho · 1 year ago
    That is so bizarre. I can't think of anyone who would be so rabidly anti-gay and pro-forced birth as a Mormon. Just shows how far up its collective ass the religious right has its collective head.

    Alienating "the entire evangelical community" can't be all bad.
  • coolcatdaddy · 1 year ago
    They're just jealous because Mitt gets to wear that funny Mormon men's underwear and they don't.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    dobson wants to know... to they wear the underwear in the shower when they bathe with their sons?
  • liberaldemdave · 1 year ago
    good one, jeff!
  • hrh · 1 year ago
    Isn't it magic underwear? What does that mean? Mebbee every guy who wears it has a thick 9" in the shower!
  • hrh · 1 year ago
    But only when showering with his son?
  • Shannon · 1 year ago
    You should see the women with their bras and panties OVER the funny underwear that must be worn next to the body, well you would laugh out loud...........

    Sing together now:

    "And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
    They will know we are Christians by our love

    We will work with each other, we will work side by side
    We will work with each other, we will work side by side
    And we'll guard each one's dignity and save each one's pride
    And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
    They will know we are Christians by our love

    By our love, by our love

    And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
    They will know we are Christians by our love

    We will walk with each other, we will walk hand in hand
    We will walk with each other, we will walk hand in hand
    And together we'll spread the news that God is in our land
    And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
    They will know we are Christians by our love

    By our love, by our love

    And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
    They will know we are Christians by our love

    Love is patient, love is kind
    Never boasts, not full of pride
    Always hopes, always trusts
    The evidence of Christ in us"

    That's how we know they are Christians.

    This is a bunch of hot air. A few months ago, the right-wingnut brigade was saying no way, no how to McCain being the nominee, and now they are all tripping over themselves lining up behind him.

    They already see a large chunk of their flock breaking off and heading to the Democratic side of the ballot, so leadership will swallow what ever they are given, to try and make sure that McCain wins.

    ha ha Pretty funny seeing the fundies jerking McShrub's chain. You know why they do that? 'Cause they can, that's why. And they get off to doing it.

    What a fucked up country with the idiot fundies running loose.

    Hey, wait.

    I've been saving my Freedom Underpants jokes for months.

    Don't quit, Mitt.
  • tlsintx · 1 year ago
    Mittens or Huckabee. some choice. sheesh.
  • ndtovent · 1 year ago
    LOL! Huckabee would be an even better pick for an Obama win than romney, but it won't happen.
  • liberaldemdave · 1 year ago
    i would love huckabee to be the running mate just for the sheer joy of poking at his wife, JETHRENE.

    seriously, the woMAN has bigger hands than either john lithgow in the world according to garp OR karen HUGhEs.
  • tlsintx · 1 year ago
    LOL!
  • thereason · 1 year ago
    omg are you serious? Her name is Jethrene??? That is PRICELESS!

    However, I will say that putting the Huckster on the ticket would help McLame win the South. If he picks Romney, Obama will sweep the South!! Pick Mitt!!!
  • liberaldemdave · 1 year ago
    oh, that it were! that's just the snarky "name" she was given at one of the snarkblogs i frequent...
  • ndtovent · 1 year ago
    I hope he DOES pick Romney as VP. Obama would be a shoo-in then... But I think he'll pick someone who appeals to the moderate base more, like liebermen or someone like him.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    well... lieberman is going to need a job...

    and he probably gives good head.


    okay, my bad.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    "we won't vote for him if he chooses romney"

    nice... they do realize that saying something like that to mccain is like waving a red flag at a bull, don't they?

    mccain = spite

    And they trust insane McCain because........?
  • unrepentant_expat · 1 year ago
    God to "Prominent evangelical leaders" Don't pick McCain I don't trust him. And you'd better clean up your act or there'll be a reckoning.
  • Joneses · 1 year ago
    I'm glad I don't work in downtown L.A. anymore. Anyway, I was going to state that I don't think anyone can really help him because the GOP are like single minded trolls, following their master.
  • ndtovent · 1 year ago
    No matter who he picks, I think Obama stil has the advantage considering the 'barr' factor.
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    yeah, but barr is balanced by nader.

    both of them are showing 2% in the polls.
  • gumbygirl · 1 year ago
    But the Barr voters will be concentrated in Georgia, and that can help put Obama ahead there. At least I hope so!

    "...62 million self-professing evangelicals in this country, ...are going to be deeply saddened," Mr. McCoy added."

    Mitt makes the baby jeebus cry.
  • kevinbgoode · 1 year ago
    Of course, one wonders how Mr. McCoy can speak for "62 million self-professing evangelicals". . .if they were so monolithic in thought, the American Taliban would run their own candidate and make a serious challenge for the presidency.

    My guess is that they don't really want to do that - cuz the public would find out just how few Americans (including many evangelicals) want to be associated with the wingnuts.

    It is, however, quite fun that the neo-cons want the Mittster, while the wailing wall of American telebangers is deadset against him.
  • Ben Dover · 1 year ago
    Man, the evangelical phony xtians certainly have a problem on this issue.

    Huck the Mighty Xtian brings the ability to feed the multitudes with a big ol' mess of squirrel all hot and fresh from the popcorn popper. Has two sons, Hoss and Big Hoss, one even has an extensive porno collection.

    Mitty and his Magic Unmentionables brings the ability to stop a speeding bullet while being all fashionable and shit in holy-magical underwear. Has an incalculable number of spawn who collectively possess more toothy ivory than a room full of Osmonds, and are willing to serve their nation by helping Grampa McSame become president and Daddy become VP.

    Decisions, decisions...

    "We aren't against Mormonism" claims the guy who wrote the Left Behind bullshit. Of course you aren't, Timmie. You love everybody, except Godless liberals and fags, and black people, and Catholics, and Mormons...oops!

    Today’s Republican Party is a freak show of hate-filled sociopaths, immoral religious and social extremists, insecure, overcompensating, irresponsible, dangerously incompetent, war-mongering imperialists and greedy, exploitive corporate anarchists. Just look at the odious and inadequate carnival barkers and snake oil salesmen the Republican Party had competing to be their presidential candidate. Being an Irish Catholic Democrat raised with four younger siblings by an uneducated single mom, I have never agreed with social conservatives, but compared to Bush’s Republican Party Eisenhower’s Republican Party was a liberal bastion of social and economic enlightenment and pluralism. Defending the actions of today’s Republican Party is advocating ignorance and evil over common sense and common decency. It would be hard to imagine that any presidential administration, Republican or Democrat, could have been as malicious, polarizing, undemocratic, corrupt or destructively pernicious to the founding causes and defining principles of our republic than George W. Bush’s. I am surprised that I am ashamed for the “good” Republicans, only because I could not have possibly imagined how “bad” some Americans were capable of being.
  • blackwolf · 1 year ago
    I say put Romney on the ticket! I like it when the Rethuglican party punks McCain around.
  • devlzadvocate · 1 year ago
    So, now I'm thinking McCain might really drop out like many originally thought. Then, we are back to Mitt, which is okay by me. Except that I'm from Michigan and he'll probably win here and that really kind of turns my stomach. At heart, we are really Democrats. If McCain really does drop out, is that what the Obama European/Middle East journey was really about? To nail down those issue before Mitt takes the stage? Just wondering out loud.
  • TampaZeke · 1 year ago
    Like James Dobson these people are so full of shit! If McCain put Satan him/herself on the ticket these people would still vote for him.
  • ron071 · 1 year ago
    WANT MORE PAIN?

    VOTE McCain!
  • SouthernYankee · 1 year ago
    If I were McCain I would pick Romney just for the fact that he can tell the extreme right to fuck off. I don''t like Romney cuz he really is a flip flopper but he could put the right in their place.
