George Washington.. then stopped and said.. George is my favorite President.. isn't he yours?? the crowd went nuts.. then started talking about George Washington again for a sentence or two then started telling them to canvas their neighborhoods.. because this election is for God.. God depends on YOU.

these people have not shame at all.

3. Hope someone reports it to the I.R.S.....
they could lose their tax-exempt status. I encourage anyone who witnesses a pastor or minister preaching from the pulpit (or the equivalent), while endorsing a particular candidate, to consider taking names, dates, and times. And then - reporting it to Americans United for Separation of Church and State, if they feel the law has been violated. AU.org will file a complaint, and the I.R.S. will investigate.

It really irks me that I essentially have to subsidize this nonsense.

6. And they act like we're the ones feeding the lawyers
Hm. Corporations have lawyers out the wazoo.

It's not our fault that the lawyers have written this country into a corner.

What it is is that corporations are so afraid of one f-ing idiot out there.

I swear, you are in possession of a contract if you buy a pack of gum. I'm sure there's one somewhere in there.

I'm probably showing my age, but I can remember my parents walking into a store and buying a TV without having to sign some contract. "Right there's the one I want." "Okay, sir. Bring your car around." "Here's your money."

2. Funny...
... George Washington wasn't much for churches, after he ran into a preacher who chided him for not kneeling before God. Apparently, George didn't kneel before anyone. :) He never went back.

"This election is for God." Guess Junior's really got `em hornswoggled, doesn't he?

7. Our country
Thomas Jefferson said "I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just and that his justice will not sleep forever." the republicans and their leaders(the devils coworkers) are destroying this country.
