Almost over...

Above: Paul Ryan, doin'
some reps for the Lord.
I know a lot of people will be glad when the election is over and that's cool, but really, I'll only be glad if the GOP gets their ass handed to them. Why? Am I some sort of white-guilt-ridden liberal tool who wants to nationalize health care, outlaw guns and apologize for America? Well, yes, obviously, but for real, lookit this thing Republican Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan said:

"...the president has put us on...a path that grows government, restricts freedom and liberty and compromises those values, those Judeo-Christian, Western civilization values that made us such a great and exceptional nation in the first place." 


-Paul Ryan

"This next hymn is about how
you're all going to hell. Enjoy."
He made his comments in a 'tele-town hall meeting' with the Faith and Freedom Coalition, a group of open-minded Americans who weren't afraid to ask Ryan the tough quest-oh wait, no, sorry. I must be thinking of something else. The Faith and Freedom Coalition is an anti-gay, anti-choice, Tea Party spin-off group focused on cramming as much Church into State as possible. So Ryan wasn't so much making his case as he was preaching to the choir, because after all, Jesus would totally be voting Republican.

That part about Obama compromising those Judeo-Christian, Western civilization values? Yeah, that's code for pssst...he's not white. It's their way of reminding the evangelicals that while Mitt Romney is a Mormon and Paul Ryan is Catholic, they're not Muslims like some other Presidents of the United States they could mention. I honestly have no idea how they sleep at night. 
"Verily I sayeth to you that he who believeth in the private sector's
ability to innovate shall have lower health care premiums." 
-Jesus, the sales pitch on the mount
