Unlike the other video we've posted this morning that relates to a huge news story from this week, this one, unfortunately, isn't satire. Rick Perry, hot off Wednesday's release of a new campaign ad that attacks gay American soldiers, is darn right tootin' sure that he meant to be blatantly homophobic in the video. In fact, to corroborate what he thinks is Jesus-approved intolerance, he augments his red-blooded patriotic homophobia (and his voice) to really hammer in the point during the interview. Video follows.
"'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' worked," is the only line from this eye-roll inducing video that we need to share. You get where this d-bag is going with this. (Fast forward to the 3:30 mark for Perry to double down on his newest campaign strategy: out-bigot Santorum and Bachmann by all means necessary.)

Not that being a dumb ass won’t keep Rick Perry from getting into the White House, but this lovely advertisement that he has running in Iowa to appeal to the craziest people on Earth will surely alienate him once and for all. http://bit.ly/rOBf9o

any Cristian politician who clams to be protecting the constitution about freedom of religion must have missed the part about Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. in the bill of rights ..
The "establishment of religion" clause of the First Amendment means at least this: Neither a state nor the federal government can set up a church. Neither can pass laws which aid one religion, aid all religions, or prefer one religion over another. Neither can force nor influence a person to go to or to remain away from church against his will or force him to profess a belief or disbelief in any religion. No person can be punished for entertaining or professing religious beliefs or disbeliefs, for church attendance or non-attendance. No tax in any amount, large or small, can be levied to support any religious activities or institutions, whatever they may be called, or whatever form they may adopt to teach or practice religion. Neither a state nor the Federal Government can, openly or secretly, participate in the affairs of any religious organizations or groups and vice versa. In the words of Jefferson, the clause against establishment of religion by law was intended to erect "a wall of separation between church and State."
sadly it seems that's what alot of the politicians who use the "christian" stage are or have tried to do meanwhile claiming they would uphold the constitution of this country.. sounds hypocritical doesnt it ?
