Are YOU a Moron?

I found this over at pasterdan's place: Street Prophets. You might want to read it, cut and paste it into an email and send to all your friends.

ARE YOU A MORON?

Certain people are banking on it.

You may have received an e-mail this year outlining a number of FALSE claims about Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

I am not going to repeat those claims, because that's what the jackasses who create such e-mails want. They want to distract you with irrelevant lies so that you DON'T ask questions like:

• When is the war going to be over?

• Why did we go to war in the first place?

• Was it worth it to go to war?

• When is somebody going to help everybody get health care without going bankrupt in the process?

• When is somebody going to do something about the fact that I'm working harder than ever, yet more financially strapped than I ever was? When are they going to do something about the jobs that have been shipped overseas by the armful? I'd like to retire in peace some day, but I'm not sure my pension will be there.

• When is somebody going to help my kids go to college or live a better life than I did?

• When is somebody going to do something about the government working for the corporations and executives, instead of for people like me?

Some people really don't want you to ask questions like that. It makes them very, very nervous because they don't have good answers for you. So they try to distract you so you don't ask them.

Whose business is it how Barack Obama worships God, anyway? I thought we were supposed to have freedom of religion in America. Well, guess what? That means nobody can tell you or me or Senator Obama what to believe. ESPECIALLY when they're not really interested in religion at all. They just want you to think they are So. You. Don't. Ask. Questions.

They don't care about the Bill of Rights that gives us the freedom to follow God - or not follow God - in any way we see fit.

They don't care about faith, except to tell YOU what THE RIGHT WAY (their way) to believe in God is.

THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU AT ALL.

As a matter of fact, they think you're stupid. They think that you'll take your eye off the birdie long enough for them to win the election and keep on doing what they want to do. They have spent a lot of time and a lot of money to keep you in the dark, because they don't want to take care of your needs at all.

All they want is for you to sit still and not ask questions.

Is that any way to run a country?

P.S. - it isn't just Obama. A lot of money has gone into convincing people that Hillary Clinton isn't religious. In fact, she's a life-long Methodist.

Why do that?

Because they know that people don't like atheists, and won't vote for them. So they think that you're stupid enough to believe the lie that she is a non-believer, and they think that you're stupid enough to be bigoted against non-believers.

And they don't want you to ask questions.

P.P.S. - If you want to know the truth about Obama's faith and church, see:

And P.P.S.: forward this to everybody you know! It's time we stopped letting people use religion to divide us so they can get rich and start wars.

The stoopid is just beginning. Swift boaters are already spreading rumors and the welfare wingnuts are waiting in the wings. It's going to be a bumpy year.

And so it goes.
