Texas wingnut Rep. Louie Gohmert: demons are inside the Beltway Speaking shortly after he riled up a crowd at Tuesday’s Tea Party protest, Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Tex.) declared that “demons” – yes, demons – have invaded the capital (and likely the souls of Democrats), forcing lawmakers to mislead the public about the content of the … Continue reading “21st Century”
My Congressman is an Idiot
(via Fundies Say the Darndest Things!) I believe, as we stand on the abyss tonight, that those Americans who are want to turn to God for answers that this is a time to be doing that. To ask for his help, supernaturally, so that we don’t make this fatal step pushing our nation into socialized … Continue reading “My Congressman is an Idiot”

Stupidity from Conservapedia

Truly Awful
Pat Robertson says Haiti paying for ‘pact to the devil’
PAT ROBERTSON: And, you know, Kristi, something happened a long time ago in Haiti, and people might not want to talk about it. They were under the heel of the French. You know, Napoleon III and whatever. And they got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, “We will serve you if you will get us free from the French.” True story. And so, the devil said, “OK, it’s a deal.”
And they kicked the French out. You know, the Haitians revolted and got themselves free. But ever since, they have been cursed by one thing after the other. Desperately poor. That island of Hispaniola is one island. It’s cut down the middle. On the one side is Haiti; on the other side is the Dominican Republic. Dominican Republic is prosperous, healthy, full of resorts, et cetera. Haiti is in desperate poverty. Same island. They need to have and we need to pray for them a great turning to God. And out of this tragedy, I’m optimistic something good may come. But right now, we’re helping the suffering people, and the suffering is unimaginable.
KRISTI WATTS (co-host): Absolutely, Pat.
Radical cleric Pat Robertson weighs in on yet another tragedy giving it his own “special” spin. He must be truly a shit of human being to be able to put such a spin on the deaths of thousands of people.

(via Fundies Say the Darndest Things!) With all the many references to musical instruments, there is one instrument that is NEVER mentioned! The DRUM! Why is that? The drum was a very common instrument in Egypt and the lands around Israel. And yet the DRUM is NEVER mentioned in a King James Bible. Did the … Continue reading “I’m Boned”
