Ms Paglia,

With "supporters" like you who needs opponents? What a liberal snob! What do you mean by "cringe-making...inner-city black intonations and jokey phrasings"? You are a silly woman who needs to expose herself to people other than the ones in your rarified circle. Normal people talk like this when they are wrongly attacked.

To fightthetheocracy:

I agree with most of your comments. Most of these "Republican Christians" are in for a big surprise. Jesus Christ has no political party. I also am concerned about the joining of church and state. One of the main reasons some of the original colonists came to the New World from the Old World was to avoid the persecution of forced state religion they were suffering. It will not work in a religiously diverse society. I am not optimistic about the future of religious freedom in the USA. There will never be a perfect nation while we are in this evil, sin-soaked world. Jesus Christ taught that His Kingdom is not of this world(John 18:36) The best one can do while alive on this earth is love GOD and love your neighbor as much as you love yourself and GOD. GOD IS REAL!

You need to get rid of your hate for Mrs. Obama as reflected by your comments about her. It is coming from an ugly place in your soul. I am saying your hostility is coming from the devil. I used to feel the same way about Gov. Palin. I just could not stand to see her face or hear her voice, but I prayed for the Lord to help me give up those feelings. It worked. My prayers didn't work immediately and even now I very occasionally backslide, but now I can look and listen to Gov. Palin without intensely disliking her and her voice. I don't think this will work for you though, because I think you enjoy your hate and jealousy. Just remember EVIL (SATAN) is real and he is seriously influencing you. One can disagree without being disagreeable. God bless you.

To BobTheBuilder:

Okay, Bob, I will pay attention to you. YOU ARE A SILLY, UNINFORMED IDIOT. There, do you feel better?
