The Bible Wants Obama Dead

Posted by on Mon, Jan 30, 2012 at 7:43 AM

The prayer:

Let his days be few; and let another take his office
May his children be fatherless and his wife a widow.
May his children be wandering beggars; may they be driven from their ruined homes.
May a creditor seize all he has; may strangers plunder the fruits of his labor.
May no one extend kindness to him or take pity on his fatherless children.

The idiot:

[Kansas House Speaker Mike O’Neal (R)] forwarded the prayer with his own message: “At last — I can honestly voice a Biblical prayer for our president [Obama] ! Look it up — it is word for word! Let us all bow our heads and pray. Brothers and Sisters, can I get an AMEN? AMEN!!!!!!”
O’Neal’s office refuses to apologize for the email, insisting that the message was only referring to Obama’s days in office.

The physicist:

Steven Weinberg: "Good people will do good things, and bad people will do bad things. But for good people to do bad things — that takes religion."

Who is this commenter who pops up everywhere calling Dan Savage "Danny"? He (or she) gives me the creeps. I think The Stranger should find out who it is and get a restraining order.

He said he did.
On the same TV program when he said he wanted to fuck Rick Santorum.
It's on Youtube.

Perhaps you should get a restraining order against your face.

Did you check out the people who tried to defend the KS House Speaker? "He only meant verse 8 and you are taking his quote out of context!" WTF? Out of context?

@5: The troll's IP address is accessible by the server admins, at the very least.

Also, stay classy, GOP.

I'd be further creeped out if the commenter wrote "Danny Boy"

So his wife being a widow and his children being fatherless is "referring to Obama's days in office"? Really?

Does Danny wishing all Republicans were dead give you the creeps?

Does Danny stating on national TV wants to rape Rick Santorum give you the creeps?

at the very very least......
