Comments on: A Test For The Maverick: Will McCain Vote Against Waterboarding Today? http://thinkprogress.org/2008/02/13/mccain-field-manual/ Fri, 27 Nov 2009 04:16:55 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: batteries http://thinkprogress.org/2008/02/13/mccain-field-manual/comment-page-2/#comment-5284124 batteries Wed, 15 Oct 2008 07:36:49 +0000 http://edit.thinkprogress.org/2008/02/13/mccain-field-manual/#comment-5284124 If god could smote each and every one of his followers, life would be so much better. Religious people scare the crap out of me. Jesus loves you but I think you’re a c()nt (to both male and female “followers” who are not following Jesus’ teachings in the least little bit). And while I am on the subject, our country stands with Israel so much…as if Bush gives two $hits about Israel or the jews…he only cares about money. If there was <a href="http://www.batterylaptoppower.com/asus/a2000.htm" rel="nofollow">asus a2000 battery</a>,<a href="http://www.batterylaptoppower.com/asus/a2500h.htm" rel="nofollow">asus a2500h battery</a> another holocaust, he’s be on the side of gassing jews again if it meant money - just as grandpappy Bush was. Sorry to borrow this but Buck Fush! If god could smote each and every one of his followers, life would be so much better.

Half-breed is an anachronistic concept that will be history in a few generations. We are all one species. Remember the perfect gas illustration in high school physics books? Two gasses are separated by a impermeable barrier and when the barrier is removed, the gasses begin to mingle and over time there is a homogenous mixture? Remove the barriers of oceans and cultures and in a few generations, we will be pretty damn homogenous too I bet. Well, except for those isolated pockets of skinhead white supremacists in Idaho and Utah.
