Right! So...

Remember how much shit the right-wing gave Obama over his choice of church/pastor? Yes, yes, that's correct. Lots of it.

Well, it turns out that the church that Michelle Bachmann just quit (within the last year) believes that the Pope is the Anti-Christ.

So the crazy people think the guy who leads the other crazy people is a very bad crazy person. Got it.

.... the fuck?

Herman Cain says that communities should be able to ban mosques.

Okay, look, I think all religions are to some extent, daffy. But this sort of shit is just wrong. It's discrimination against a particular religious group. Now if a community wants to ban all religion, well... that's probably equally stupid, just a different sort of stupid. (Because it's unlikely to happen, and anyone trying it would be wasting their time.)

On a certain level, I cannot wait for the early primaries, where Cain will get his clock cleaned by oh.... practically every other candidate. (Pawlenty might give him a run for last place, we'll see.)
