Embarrassed
Posted by Bret WeaverFebruary 6th, 2008
To live in a state won by Mike Huckabee.
The man wants “to change the constitution to better reflect the bible.”
Hello? ….anyone?
We join our intellectual contemporaries of Arkansas, West Virginia, Iowa, Georgia, and Mississippi in nominating the former pastor…
I’m going to ask you folks that voted for Huckabee to do a little exercise with me.
Imagine for one second that you are not a Christian.
I know it’s hard. But try it anyway. It’s called empathy.
Better yet, imagine a candidate who said he wanted to change the constitution to better reflect the Qur’an.
Would you think that a Super Idea?
No, of course you wouldn’t. That’s why we have, say it with me.
The. separation. of. church. and. state.
It’s in the c-o-n-s-t-i-t-u-t-i-o-n.
We are a Constitutional Republic.
And don’t tell me this country was founded on Christianity. It wasn’t. The founding fathers knew very well the dangers of theocracy. And took necessary precautions against it.
But we, apparently, do not.
Just look over to the Middle East if you want to see how well that system works.
But of course, I’m a heathen. You probably won’t listen to me, anyway.
If I didn’t like my job so much I would move away from here.
Cheers.

Come on man, the guy rolls with and is endorsed by 4 time (consecutively i might add) International Martial Arts champion Chuck Norris. Enough said. Who cares if he wants to make petty little changes to THE BASIS OF THE FREE WORLD, when i go to sleep at night, i’ll know that somewhere in Texas a bearded god has my commander and chiefs back.
…Eff Huckabee
& Chuck Norris.
Can’t wait to see what the bible thumpers have to say about this. Should be intellectually stimulating, as always. ;]

I’m right there with you, Bret. I’m glad you are not leaving. If all the intelligent people left, then Tennessee would be the new Mississippi.

I wish that you did not like your job so much.

Separation of church and state is for chimps. I reserve the right to head to my nearest temple, take my communion wafer onto my tongue, and bow to the east. Oh yes, and on the way, I’ll cast my vote for Herenton as World’s Best Mayor. Yippee!
