And I restated my position to make it clearer. You insist on ignoring this.

Did these things - part of the OP - happen, or not?

Tell the board how Sharia is taking over, Blabo.

Apparently, Winterborn thinks you're part of a fringe group of neocons.

Poor Blabo.
 
Can't prove your post

and can't show us how many bills the Dems have introduced on the same issues.

Poor, pathetic AssWipe

Thanks for playing.

As I clearly stated, I was not addressing the cartoons and other nonsense. I was addressing the 21 reasons listed.

But I will stoop to give you a clearer explanation of why I did not address the political hatchet-job that the photo slam you keep quoting.

I have no doubt the GOP introduced those bills in the numbers listed. But without specifics on the bills, the argument is worthless. There is no mention of what those bills included. The bills on "family relationships" could have included stricter punishments for domestic abuse, but since it is simply a number of bills introduced it is not worth discussing.

Also, that the GOP opposed the Jobs Act sounds, on the surface, to be a bad thing. But why did they oppose it? Did the bill include unfunded mandates? Did the bill discriminate? Did the bill contain riders that the GOP disagreed with? Unless the details of the bill and the reasons for opposing it are listed, the statement is simply a sensationalistic piece of political nonsense.

Does that clarify it for you?

I called the OP over the top. I thought most would understand that this meant they were farfetched.

After looking over them again, they are all farfetched. None of those will happen. And it is just as much a case of fear-mongering as is the neocons repeated attempts to make us fear Islam.

So when you said all of the OP was "farfetched" and "none of those will happen", you were wrong?

Over the top? No I wouldn't say that. Hyperbole? Maybe. All I know is I don't fear Christian fundamentalist taking over this country. I just don't think it can happen. I'd be damned afraid if they did though! His points aren't to far off and the reality could be far worse. What scares me most is how Fundamentalist narrowly define Christianity and that they wouldn't consider most of us fellow Christians and if they did obtain political power, we would pay a price for that. They would probably start with athiest, Muslims, Buddhist, Jews and other heathens, then they'd focus on Catholics and probably start rounding things out with an Episcapaleon and a Methodist or two.
 
"As much as I dislike fundamentalist politicians, wasn't the list of 21 Reasons You Should Fear Christian Fundamentalist Control of the US a bit over the top?"

"To make a point that the issues listed in the 21 Reasons You Should Fear Christian Fundamentalist Control of the US are farfetched."



Its funny, you understood my first statement, but when I added detail to the exact same sentences, something is missing?

You doubled down and claimed that "all" the OP was "farfetched" and said that "none of those will happen".

Now you "restated" what you meant, but your "restatement" didn't include an acknowledgement that when you said "all" of the OP was "farfetched" and "none of those will happen", you were wrong.

I ignored the cartoon and political hack stuff, and addressed the OP as explained in the title of the thread.

Since I realized that I did not make that clear, I restated it. Now, if you would like to discuss what I have said in the restatement, I am happy to oblige. If you wish to continue with the with the attempted "gotcha", you are wasting your time.

I consider the added cartoons and pics to be much like the signature line. It says something about the poster's views.
