First, I have a Modest Proposal of my own. Let's find every church that has preached politics from the pulpit and given out highly partisan "voting guides" since the 2000 elections and strip their tax free status for the next, say, 20 years.
Also, since we're busy taking their rights away, let's let gay couples - especially the ones whose marriages will probably be invalidated - to be exempt from all federal taxes, as well as state taxes in places that explicitly ban their marriages.
If you hit the hatemongers in the pocketbooks, maybe they will learn to separate Church from State and let people truly live their private lives without fear of intolerant repression.
Going back to the evil churches, a few examples from across our great land. This is from Kansas:
From Greenville, SC Catholics are being denied communion for voting for Obama. But this is a problem across the Catholic Church. Yet another reason I'm not a practicing Catholic.
Aside from being against the law, this level of hate coming from supposedly "compassionate" conservatives is just plain mean. And you wonder why millions are turned off on religion.
But it gets worse. Racism writ large is on the rise in the US, with more reports of hatred and bigotry across this land. Here's another report on this, plus the apology from the mayor of the Idaho town where students chanted "Assassinate Obama". The superintendent of said school blames the media and not the intolerant parents. Figures.
This as threats against Obama are on the rise. Stay classy GOP.
Incidentally, since the founder of Home Depot says any retailer not supporting the GOP should be shot, then fired, I'm totally only shopping at Lowe's.
Bonus BS: Can you hear me now? Fuck Verizon. Asshats there have spied on Obama's calls. If they are ballsy enough to spy on the next president, how safe do you think YOUR records are?
