20. my reaction, exactly. But it was more like, "oh, jay-sus"

And this is the kind of thing that makes me realize why he has to do the "faith" thing so much.

2. My boss told me this load of garbage the other day
and shouted me down when I told him it was incorrect. But it is the big rumor that the fundy preachers are feeding to their congregations now.

6. Anyone expect fundies to tell the truth?
If so, I gotta bridge...:rofl:

So sad that those that drink of that Kool Aid believe shit like this and shit like,"...there were dinosaurs on the Arc..." to explain carbon testing that does NOT agree with biblical time lines.

16. I know
but I guess its human nature to try and expose an outright lie like that. Now the two guys that work for him are both agnostics--one is very anti-preacher---those guys will actually listen. Might not agree, but at least they'll listen.

4. I'm outraged when they use the bible
so even if that absurd rumor had a basis, the Koran wouldn't be any worse.

9. I saw this the other day. It's maddening.
The saddest part is that they're voting for Huck, who wants to continue the war indefinitely, even though it's clear they don't really support the war, and want the soldiers home.

10. Some people like to believe this kind of crap
They can't say they won't vote for a black man,
so if they play him off as a muslim they can get
out of voting for that.

14. Got this piece of garbage from my niece just before the primary.
When I got it I was undecided. After I read it I knew who to vote for. Obama. I haven't had a dog in this hunt and felt I needed to take a stand against the lies.

15. Like my 80-year old mother always says:
This sort of idiocy supports the notion that voting should be a privelege and not a right.

:evilgrin:

18. This video needs nation exposure on KO! He could handle this!
What ignorance and stupidity. Unfortunately, these people in the video will go to the polls having spewed their venom for Muslims along the way. Tripe.

22. We could try honesty. It's worked before as a campaign "tactic."
MOST Red state Obama voters will believe this? What a crock.

Is this the best you can do? That those of us who support Obama should withdraw that support based on these lies? Are you going to withdraw your support for Hillary based on lies that she was involved in Vince Foster's death, and some Red state voters may buy this calumny? Is that what this election has become?

Ugly, nasty stuff. Even for here.

25. The ignorance is breathtaking
How do you refute these people? You can't because the very BASIS of their beliefs is bogus. Not the Bible itself, but the interpretation of it, which they get from the extreme fundies.

26. The ignorance is breathtaking!
And I know there are many like these two imbeciles. They are to be pitied and help to make the argument that maybe the President should be chosen by a group of people who can prove that they have a brain and , in fact, use it.
