Latest Outrage!!! Obama Didn't Wish Us Happy Easter!!!
One of my right-wing friends just sent me a link to video showing Obama wishing members of various "other" religions (including MUSLIMS!!! GASP!!!) well on their various holidays and then noting that he FAILED to wish Christians a Happy Easter this year. SHOCK!!! HORROR!!!

Once again, the poor, downtrodden, long-suffering Christians are being slighted by someone. We're being VICTIMIZED!!! Somebody call the WAAAHHHHHmbulance!!! You know, the more I think about it, the more I believe that "the martyr" is the PERFECT symbol of Christianity.

Could there be anything going on right now that I care LESS about than this? Why are Christians so insecure? Why do they need to be stroked at every turn? I thought the invisible man in the sky had their backs.

The truth is that with all the problems going on in the world these days, this nothing more than just another distraction to get the right-wingers' white sheets in a twist.

Btw, there hasn't been an official Easter Proclamation issued by a president since 1980.

12. mirror, mirror...
to re-quote your sig...

"This country is full of nitwits, assholes, fuck-ups, scumbags, jerk-offs, and dipshits"


Thanks for the proof. Try not to drink from the bottle labeled "bleach", it is not lemonade.

I was sympathetic to your argument until your little wisecrack about "the invisible man in the sky".
