A tale of two catholics.
“Whatever issue may come before me as president, if I should be elected, on birth control, divorce, censorship, gambling, or any other subject, I will make my decision … without regard to outside religious pressures or dictates.”
- John F. Kennedy, on being the first Catholic president.
“President Obama’s policies are not “based on the Bible.”...

Shortly, probably today, I’ll be back on politics.
But today, I would LOVE it if you guys would reblog and retweet the Nancy Grace post, if you agree, of course. It’s this one:

Seriously?
There are a lot of things I jokingly profess rage toward. Oprah. Jersey Mike’s. And there are things I get furious about where there aren’t many jokes, like Rick Santorum’s stance on… I guess everything.
But I despise Nancy Grace. On a cellular level.
She is a monster.

No, not yet.
But it’s not that far leap.
Great job on the Birth Control issue guys. Keep up the good work.
In related news about horrible white guys embarrassing the rest of them, Goodbye, dip$h*t.
Keep talking about birth control, idiots.
The loonier you get…
…the bigger the spread.
And people aren’t going to forget the fact that you want to drag this country back to the dark ages.
Keep up the good work. Go Santorum! Then Romney again! Then Santorum! Then Paul! Then… oh, shit, is it November?
The longer the crazy goes on, the more people realize the crazy is crazy.

Remember this: Mitt, to Michigan, Four Years ago:...
With polls showing Romney losing in Michigan, you’re going to see a lot of advertising in that state, very soon, most of it negative, toward his opponents.
Michigan is important to Mitt, because lets face it… winning CPAC’s “Mayor of Crazytown” and squeaking out a win in Maine’s non-binding whatever that was carries ZERO weight on a global scale.

Well, he got his talking points, he was programmed to speak to the fringe and it worked! By seven whole percent.
Romney defended his one term as governor of Massachusetts, saying he erased a large deficit to balance the budget, eliminated government agencies and applied the lessons of private enterprise to running the state government.
By being a moderate. Shh! He’s a right wing...

LANSING, Mich. — A coalition of black ministers in Detroit called Monday for U.S. Senate candidate Pete Hoekstra to apologize for his Super Bowl ad featuring a young Asian woman speaking broken English to describe the impact of the Democratic incumbent’s economic policies.

Romney tries to sing "America The Beautiful"
Emphasis on “Tries.” I’d tell him not to quit his day job, but it’s not like the guy has ever had to really work. Maybe his Dad should have sung it for him?
What we’ve learned: Apparently they have not installed the singing chip in the MittBot 2012. Yes, they got rid of all the moderate programming, and they’ve dialed the aggression up…

Hey, Jews. Watch your back. Even after death.
Mitt Romney’s problem with evangelical Christian voters has been well documented.
