Well you gotta have a couple black friends from the small pool of "intelligent and well-socialized blacks" to guard yourself against people accusing you of racism just because you say racist shit all the time.
It's the Daily Caller, thinking about it too hard is not a good idea.
It might be satire, with the caricature of liberalism thrown in there randomly? Or it could just be typical racist bullshit published by a right wing website.
but they're a rare commodity so snatch yours up quick

As you can see, this is not from The Onion.
So that's what he's been doing in his doom bunker since Fox realized he was too crazy for them.
'Cause that's got to happen at some point, right?
About the only sound his ego makes now is "OM NOM NOM".
Please, his ego is positively Gingrichian.
Because 9% think it's too high, and shouldn't be cut! 9% of respondents could not fully
get their arms around the question. There should be another box you can check for, "I
have utterly no idea what you're talking about. Please, God, don't ask for my input."
I agree. But people are allowed to make stupid decisions. Unfortunately, if they are of sound mind and body and it doesn't affect someone else then we have to let them.

I was wondering when this would hit the boards
I kind of think this is a bit disrespectful, but that may just be me
But it also provides the perfect cover for when he says something racist and awful. You can have all the other nutjobs pull a, "It's just entertainment. SNL does fake president things all the time!"
Those comments! hahahaha
You know, the religion he has that is not Christianity
Until November, Mormonism is going to be considered part of Christianity.
Because their Jesus came to America and hung out with the Indians instead of just disappearing after coming back from the dead.
Its not a Christian religion because Jesus spent some time in America after his crucifixion? Isnt he like, divine? The son of god? The dude can walk on water, whats to say he didnt walk over here?
Fun fact, I just learned crucifixion is spelled -fixion and not -fiction. As you can tell, Im super religious.
A more serious answer is that Mormonism is non-trinitarian, in that they believe Jesus is the literal "first born son" of God, not actually God. The religion's cosmological beliefs are also Henotheistic (there may be a whole bunch of gods or god-like entities, but they worship one particular one). Once you depart from trinitarianism, you're on the road to saying Muslims and Bahai are Christians.

I know they do the God head thing, the father, son and holy spirit which Im pretty sure Catholics do too and theyre like OG Christians. I mean, they accept Jesus Christ as their lord and savior, isnt that really all that matters when youre determining who is and isnt a Christian?
In Mormonism Jesus is one of God's Sons that volunteered to become a prophet on earth. Like the prophets of the old testament, empowered to speak the word of god, but not God himself.
Its important because the word of Jesus according to Christians is the Direct Word of God as spoken by God in his form of Jesus. This means its he spoke god's truth because he was god. In Mormonism Jesus was a prophet that spoke on behalf of God.
And pages of debate could be made on the difference between the two. Mostly meaningless debate....
At least it's not like he's the Chief Political Columnist for anyone, right? Oh, wait...
Fucking arglebargle.
A red metal container emblazoned with the Craftsman logo is less of a toolbox than Politico.

The idea of the Godhead in Mormonism is more like a group of three seperate entities (Elohim, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit) that all agree on absolutely everything, whereas in Trinitarianism they are three persons but one being and are consubstantial (of the same substance). Since, of the Mormon Godhead, Elohim and Jesus both have separate, perfect physical bodies, they obviously aren't consubstantial. That's one of the many big differences that separates them from Trinitarian Christian traditions like the Catholic church.
I take your point in that Mormonism pretty obviously cribbed quite a lot form Christianity, but it has a lot of theological differences. The similarities are more cultural - from a North American perspective, yes, Mormons are so similar to other Christian groups that they'd be indistinguishable. From a more universal perspective, where the theological differences play a bigger role, they're a lot different.

On a similar note, what's the official Catholic stance on the Virgin of Guadalupe?
Not quite. The idea that Christ was just a prophet is Jehova's Witnesses's beliefs, not Mormon. You kind of just took both religions and mixed them together right there.
We believe that Christ was God, and that he was the God from the Old Testament, Jehova. That he and the father are two seperate beings. God the Father, and Christ the Son. We can also refer to Christ as the father sometimes, not in that he and God the Father are the same person, but in different contexts; for example we believe that Christ himself created the Earth, under the direction of God the Father, therefore making Christ the Father of the Earth.
Anytime Christ speaks, he speaks the will of his father.
About half the women were Bachmann and half the African-Americans were Cain. I'd guess the other half of the African Americans was Harold Ford, Jr. Maybe Clyburn once.
I'm mostly surprised that the coroner ruled he had a heart.
Pfft. That chart was made by the liberal media anyway.
Besides, everyone knows the real conservatives are repressed and slandered. I mean, just look at the hatchet job done on Anders Breivik!
Fucking liberal media.
They are, however, diligently covering the John Edwards sex scandal.
That's ok, CNN was mentioning the money quote every five minutes this morning.
I assume you guys all noticed ThinkProgress's implied point - that the political right is made up almost entirely of white men? Because that was tolerably crafty of them. Anyone hazard a guess as to the total on-air time represented by all those interviews combined? From where I sit, that chart is mostly good for liberals to fap over while trying to push back against the bias charge.
Which reminds me: NPR this morning did a 2-minute report, presented as plain old news, on the pending release of an Obama campaign video.
