"Falwell with a goatee"

Whoever said this is really on to something. I think a real question that voters ought to ask themselves is if America will finally say farewell to Falwellism, because thus far. it really hasn't been a very graceful fall.

It's been more like the expulsion from paradise into abject idiocy.

@map

This place is a prattlers paradise. It's one big battle of prattles. Who's the most sexist? who's the most pristine in liberal creds..etc. One poster I just noticed said certain people here were in possesion of little dicks. So, evidently it's about size too. Endeavor on, but realize you run the risk of being swallowed up in a shouting match of such smug sanctimony of such Cecil B. DeMille proportions, that it's pretty funny.

I don't mean to be rudish, but "appalling" sounds appallingly prudish.

What is slitting throats "Islam style" say as opposed to slitting throats Zoroastrian style?

I get it. You keep your blade sharp but your brain blunted and dull.

Enquiring imbeciles want to know the difference in incision, seeing as you're so incisive.

Do you suppose Obama got sacked at Saddleback because he rode side saddle? Did McCain have more of that cowpoke swagger than seems more honest John to most Americans..it's so complex!

@maureen

What you call a philisophical turn of the mind, I term an intestinal churn of the bowels.

But I suspect these are both different sides of the same coin, as most Americans evidently don't know their ass from a hole in the ground anyway.

@maureen

All American men and women are obsessed with their own flesh. If it sags, if it's stretched, if it's pitted, if it's perfect, if it's imperfect, if their's too much hair, if there,s too much there, as if anybody should even care. If you don't look like a blond and buff beach boy or bimbette you've got no real reason to live in this country. I'm just very grateful that my girlfriend is not one of the neurotic natives, although this crap culture is starting to work on her too. But I tell her she's beautiful.

Who's whining about who won the cheapo mega-church's chump prize?

I mean, winning an award on presentation at Saddleback is like winning a Crackerjack prize.

Do you you dig the virtuosity of that?

I think he was thinking that quaint, conservative, "church folk" have been trying to Saran Wrap him as a dark and sinister Saracen for so long, that it was time to take it to the temple of telegenic TV evangelism, and tell the evagelicals standing as guardians at the gates of American redemption, that they don't own the rights to eternity anymore.

Mull that one over maybe.

@Factodius

What do you tell these people with the mega-churchs and the mega-millions? Take a hike? Millions of Americans thrill to these snake oil salemen, so the answer clearly isn't in the stars, it's in your society, which is getting sicker by the minute. Some of these prophets of the end times preachers predict that an integrated economy in Europe is one of the signs of the coming anti-chist.

Personally I just see it as a continent that might be getting its shit together to kick uncle Sam square in his fat stupid ass by the time we reach the middle of this century, and I want a front row seat to THAT show.

Yo get only what you deserve.

Smears?

Look no farther than this freaky redneck chick from Texas who goes by the hate handle of KateTex. She's been circulating her strange blend of HateTex Incorporated for a pretty long time now. I remember first coming across her refuse around the time of the primaries, probably around May or maybe June, but she's one bitch of a busy bee. A veritable cornucopia of crap correspondence, tailor made by a typical Texas redneck.

Politicians can't save America? Too true, but can you save us from another silly sanctimonious sermon? I'm so sure you're not like any other shithead who proclaims himself a "proud

American,"

Sure, I'd buy that for a buck.

In Christ's quiet cone.

Tuesday, August 19, 2008 11:25 PM

The head of the present president is vacant

If McCain should stumble in we should just be stuck with a vacant stare.

@Hutman

I've got to hand it to you, you really did your research on the Hatebots. I think KateTex is the queen of the crew. Whenever KateTex graces Salon letters with her garbage, I can only think that Texas really MUST be "a whole 'nuther country."
