Funding the military
"Perhaps we should fund the military by charitable giving and street collections, and the needy through our taxes."
Maybe it should be the other way around ...

Mother Jones on the real Mitt Romney
This report is being mentioned on several blogs:

Re: Mother Jones on the real Mitt Romney
It won't help him with the independents, and that's the support he needs right now.

Mitt Romney Just Lost The Election
From Business Insider
BLOOMBERG: Mitt Romney Just Lost The Election
I think they are almost right. Not quite right, though, because I think Romney (aka Elmer Fudd) decisively lost the election when opened his big mouth about the Libya embassy riots, and demonstrated his complete ineptness.

I'm just a outsider, but I like to ask: are you all content with this political system?
Hell, no!

To illustrate my point, a week or so ago a ''what would you vote in the US?'' poll was held in some countries in Europe, including here. If I recall correctly, Obama got 80% of the ''votes'', and Rommey about 5%.
My guess is that it would be about the same here --
-- if Obama were not black.
Racism is deeply ingrained and visceral.
Of course, to be realistic, if Obama were not black, the Republicans would not be sounding nearly so insane. They have a insane platform in order to appeal to the racist vote, without directly using racist epithets.

Re: Slight disconnect ?
Do passages like these get cut out of bibles given to GOP members ?
There actually is a Conservative Bible Project.

Re: The Fallacy of Redistribution
Self serving right wing BS.
The conservatives are very much in favor of redistributing wealth. They have been redistributing it upward (toward the rich) at every opportunity.

I think you must be talking about Mitt's speech on Libya. Indeed, that was an epic collapse. And Mitt's "47%" speech on economics was another epic collapse.

Aircraft windows should open
Mitt Romney writes:
When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous.

Romney is even further out of touch with reality than we had realized.

My summary
In summary, this thread goes into summary mode just when things get interesting.
That seems like poor timing.

Fundamentalism - the anti-American, anti-Christian branch of American Christianity
