Sunday Prayers

Well, things were certainly interesting at the State Capital on Friday. Bradlee Dean, a controversial pastor from our state, delivered the morning prayer. In it, he said that "Jesus Christ was the head of his denomination as every president up until 2008 has acknowledged. And we pray it in Jesus' name." Dean has also been known to say that homosexuals should be jailed and/or executed.

First of all let me say that anyone named Brad who spells their name like that should be completely ignored. Last in Line and I have often wondered why parents choose to spell their children's names in the most ridiculous ways. Can't they just let their personality's demonstrate how different they are from the other Brads, Toms, Janes, and Marys? Imagine if my name were spelled Mahrq. Or Nmarc...with the silent "N" at the beginning. What the fuck is the matter with people? And I thought hyphenating last names was bad.

Dean's prayer couldn't have come at a better time, though. I think our state needs to see how truly despicable the supporters are of the gay marriage ban amendment. The amendment did pass today and will be on the ballot in 2012. I say...FANTASTIC! Polls in the state have shown that more will vote against it and polls nation wide have flipped over the years to show that most people support the right for gay people to marry than do not. Honestly, this is just a political stunt to get the fag haters out to vote against President Obama next year.

The election is a ways off but the trend shows that more and more people are supporting gay couples marrying every day. The political and economic power behind the support for gay marriage is going to build over the next 17 months and I think the supporters of the ban are going to be in for a very rude awakening come election time.

Perhaps at that time we can dispense with this bull shit and focus on more important matters like...oh...I don't know....the economy, education, climate change, security, immigration...you know, the little things...

Brilliant strategy to get the fag haters out to the polls, though. You have to admit.

I'm curious exactly how many people would show up and vote, just to protect their anuses (anii?) from unwanted exploitation.

Pastor Dean was on the Sue Jeffers Show Saturday afternoon. He shed quite a bit of light on this situation.

You could pull her podcast if you want to hear his side of the story.

ROTFLMAO!

And I always make it a point to leave my anus unprotected as I enjoy it being mysteriously exploited:)

Great Rove - passive voice insinuation with no link to anything that he actually said. Well played!

He could post a link juris but you'd just ignore it so what's the point? I would also assume that a simple google search would enlighten you. Why don't you take the individual responsibility and do it yourself? Or do you need Mark to help you find it? It took me all of three seconds to find out what Mark has talking about.

Sasquatch, you are just mad that gays are sent by Satan to destroy our seed.

Anti-gay rants are usually funnier than Al Sharpton.

Now hop on the other foot!

Your party has been putting off dealing with the budget for over 2 years now. And you're bitching at Republicans?!?

Mark Ward said...

I was speaking specifically of MN state economic issues but since you brought it up...I would be happy to deal with budgetary matters. Are you prepared to cease with the childish dishonesty regarding the Democrats and the budget? Until that time, I won't manage your fantasies.

That's right Mark! I'm sick of Republicants claiming that the Democrats didn't produce a budget last year.

Liars!

That kind of childish dishonesty makes me sad.

I'd be happy if you'd just manage your own. But if you did, you doubtless wouldn't be a Democrat, so I suppose that's too much to expect.

Funny how any form of disagreement whatsoever has become "childish dishonesty". And as usual, no supporting facts required.
