“Is it not the same than when our government continues to perpetuate laws that lead citizens away from God?” Perry then asked.
Sounds like a strong argument for introducing Sharia elements into US laws.

Irony deficiency anemia: is that a good thing?
Baggers think irony is what one does when the washery is finished.

As was pointed out by John Cleese: One must be very stupid indeed to not have the modicum of intelligence to realize he is stupid.

On days like this, it’s hard not to wonder if the Romans had the right idea after all.

Hitler never portrayed himself and the Nazi movement to the German people as outspoken proponents of atheism, but rather as faithful Christians. He publicly declared: “We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity … in fact our movement is Christian.” [Speech in Passau 27 October 1928 Bundesarchiv Berlin-Zehlendorf; from Richard Steigmann-Gall (2003). Holy Reich: Nazi conceptions of Christianity, 1919-1945. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. pp. 60-61

Sorry. It was my district the sent this loon to Austin. He won 53% of the vote in an open field of candidates (the Democratic candidate got only 13%). So, it was a convincing win for the hard right theocrats.
Apparently, that is where west-central Texas is at politically – plunder the earth with fracking and send end-time religious lunatics to the state assembly.
There are many sane, reasonable people where I live, but sadly not enough to prevent this from happening.

Gawd, Texas elects the most idiotic candidates both in views and sheer numbers.
Molly Ivins once wrote: “The Texas Lege meets every two years. Every two years, every village in Texas knows the location of their idiot.”

“Is it not the same than when our government continues to perpetuate laws that lead citizens away from God?”
No.
The government has no responsibility to encourage a belief in one God or another. It’s folks like the Iranians that do that kind of thing and I’ll bet that just HORRIFIES Chuckie. Which laws is he even talking about?
And I’d like to know, which medical office was this? Not that the Nazis weren’t scum who were perfectly capable of doing something like this but since Teabaggers have a habit of playing fast and loose with the truth, it would be nice to know that Chuckie isn’t just making this up.
