Maybe you'll soon have a thought.

This is why I rarely visit Repug blogs. You seem to be such simple dolts. Sorry for the redundancy.

That maybe a thought. Soon

That maybe a thought. Soon as our great President bombs the terrorist protecting country of Iran into oblivion - it might be a nice place to go.

You should

No wonder this country is so screwed up from your type

What type? The type who fail to understand that this country's basic structures are rotten to the core and the options presented by the major parties are no answer? The type who can't see past their own noses because they were reared and live in an environment of intellectual and moral retardation? The type who make the US the "second most religious" society in the world, resulting in the type named in the previous sentence?

Wow - you guys are a real

That's cool. My faith experience is centered around a bee hive. I especially enjoy your Easter holiday tho. Isn't that when Jesus rises from the grave to distribute colored eggs?

I've got a 9 foot Tree!

A christmas tree at that too! Studying next to it right now. It's a beauty I just don't like it when my electeds get involved in all that. Not everyone believes what you and I believe. No ban.

Why are Republicans so mean? At Christmas even?

Great piece in the Washington Post on the GOP's Christmas hypocricy.

Consider: Christmas, after all, celebrates not just Jesus's birth but his family's flight from Herod's wrath into Egypt, a journey obviously undertaken without benefit of legal documentation. The Bible isn't big on immigrant documentation. "Thou shalt neither vex a stranger nor oppress him," Exodus says the Lord told Moses on Mount Sinai, "for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt."

Yet the distinctive cry coming from the Republican base this year isn't simply to control the flow of immigrants across our borders but to punish the undocumented immigrants already here, children and parents alike.

They broke the law! Yeah, and so do all of us, every day, when we go over the speed limit. One puts other lives at risk, the other doesn't. I guess we should all be deported.

The most depressing thing about the Republican presidential race is that the party's rank and file require their candidates to grow meaner with each passing week. And now, inconveniently, inconsiderately, comes Christmas, a holiday that couldn't be better calibrated to expose the Republicans' rank, fetid hypocrisy.

Meanies. At Christmas. How very Christian.
