The Inadequacy of Lesser Equality

A presidential candidate that I admit I've never heard of (probably because until recently I have avoided reading the news like the plague) has openly trampled all over the first amendment of the Constitution of the United States. I'm sure he's prime oval office material. I mean after all, Gee Dubya wiped his ass on the Constitution, so why not have Herman Cain wipe his feet on the amendments.

Herman doesn't seem to think that Muslims deserve to be able to build a mosque in which to worship. Would he think the same if it were a church that was being built? Of course not. The state of Tennessee is one of the most backward-racist-homophobic-stupid-bastard states in the country. I wonder if it escapes Herman's menial thought process that forty years ago he would have been sprayed with water hoses if he'd have dared try to run for the office of dog catcher, much less the office of President of the United States.

Of course he's also apparently itching to wipe his ass with Article Six too. I hope he doesn't mind that Gee Dubya already used it for toilet paper.
"On the Glenn Beck Show today, the host asked the Georgia Republican about his refusal to appoint Muslims. Cain told Beck that he would be willing to appoint a Muslim only “if they can prove to me that they’re putting the Constitution of the United States first.”"

Too bad Herman Cain doesn't put the Constitution of the United States first.
"...no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."

  1. Okay, have to snicker now. Um really, putting the US first? You mean like Mitch McConnel is right now? Or Rick Santorum? And how about all those republicons who think that this should be a theocratic Christian counterpart to Iran? Are they putting the principles of this country first? Because it sounds to me like they already have Lady Liberty taped in the back seat of that bus.

    I feel like I am in a Douglas Adams novel, or perhaps a chapter from an Anton Wilson book. I keep waiting to find bizarre notes telling us when we can use the bathroom signed by the mgt.

  2. They don't give one iota about this country. They only care about their bottom line, which is wielding power and making money for themselves, their cronies and the corporations that put them in office in the first place.
