I ain't no stinkin' monkey! Hallelujah! Say Americans

Allow me to climb a tree and scratch my nuts while I ponder on the following chart.

Don't get raped in South Dakota

The Governor of South Dakota just made it illegal to abort a pregnancy in the state even if the pregnancy was a result of a rape or incest.

It is so very humane to consider the "health" of 4 cells more important than someone who's just been raped.

Hallelujah!

The net being regulated by Christian conservatives

Declan McCullagh, of Politech fame, reports about the .xxx TLD roadblocks and how the Christian conservatives have been getting more and more power in the US regulatory agencies.

He also lists concrete examples of how these Christian conservatives are flexing their newfound powers in ways that threaten the 1st Amendment rights and/or don't make any sense whatsoever in the context of a global network like the Internet.

Republicans - God's Chosen People - according to Republicans

Senator Bill Frist (R-TN) is joining prominent Christian conservatives in an April 24th telecast and use the telecast to declare Democrats as acting "against people of faith" for their efforts to block some of the more conservative judicial nominees.

Given that the Pope also was a great friend of the Republicans and George W. Bush especially [1], well, according to the Republicans and George W. Bush, this political move is sure to guarantee God himself will vote for Republicans for now and forever.

We heathens will be doomed to eternal political minority, as well as an afterlife in hell. According to the Republicans.

1. Apart from that little thing about the death penalty, of course

God is not a Republican. Or a Democrat.

One thing that really, really bothers me about the republicans this election year, is how they've somehow adopted Christianity as the official party emblem.

It is as if non-republican is less of a Christian and as if the republican party was on a mission from God sent to save all liberals, democrats and other non-believers from eternal damnation. The religious right is acting as if George W. Bush was the reicarnation of Jesus Christ himself.

When exactly did God become a republican?
