Commentary: Morons Select a Mormon

Like bringing a spoon to a gunfight, the Democratic party shows it is determined to lose. I have never seen such a sorry bunch of politicians. Instead of coming up with a leader with a compelling vision to attract voters, they are pandering to the minority of evangelicals that have been taking credit for Bush's win. Dumb, Dumb, Dumb!

So in all their pandering glory, the Democrats just picked a religious Mormon (more on that later) who is anti-abortion to "lead" their party. Do they think the 23% of evangelical voters will suddenly fall in love with them? Like a nerd who buys a leather jacket to look cool, the democratic party is moving away from the 49% of the population that showed it is desperate for progressive leadership by trying to give the wooden John Kerry a chance.

As the Democrats follow Republicans to the religious fringe, the US begins it's steady decline. Like Roman, Greek and Turkish empires before it, get ready to live by candlelight and crap out of the window. The dark age of religious stupidity and hypocrisy is coming.

First lets' talk about Mormons. These mixed up folk actually believe that a prophet named Joseph Smith living in found some golden plates (in Vermont!!!!) around 1830 that supposedly had the word of god. And what did god have to say? Well, that life originated in North America, that Indians were originally white people turned red by god as a punishment, and that if you try hard enough, you can turn raccoon droppings into magic flying monkeys. Well, except for that last one, the Mormons make the book of Genesis look like an AP Chemistry textbook. Is this really our future?

As other countries invest in stem cell research and pursue the path of science, we have a growing population that believes in creationism. You know, one day god made a tree, another day a chicken, another a dildo. Yep, progress. I don't know about you, but I'm signing up to for that Chinese class I've been putting off... Actually, I'm doing to start with a Dim Sum menu...all this ranting makes me hungry.
