GOP wack job speaketh againeth: (Which one you ask? I know, there is a plethora of them)…

Okay…I am a mom. And it wasn’t that long ago when my daughter was 13, the age Bachman refers to in this quick – but very long – floor discussion. First of all, I acknowledge that I am fortunate to have nurtured a relationship with my daughter that would have precluded her skipping off to Junior High in the morning; squeezing in a visit to a “Sex Clinic” between bells in the morning; then popping in for a quick abortion over lunch; to return home about 3:00pm showing no signs of her days’ events.

If I were that unconscious as a parent, and my daughter were that much of a sociopath in her emotions…ummm…I would assert that there are other VERY serious concerns that need to be addressed.

What is WRONG with this woman???

It’s this whole paranoid cult! they act like everyone out there is intent on indoctrinating their children! the public schools, the homosexuals, the counselors, Planned Parenthood, liberals – even the President for gods sakes!

The reality is these extreme evangelicals are the ONLY ones doing the indoctrinating. They fill them with fear, paranoia, even hate – all in the name of God. And let’s look at how well this is all working for them.

“Does religiosity, particularly Christianity, improve a society? The answer seems to be that it does not. In fact there is plenty of evidence to conclude it makes people worse off. The United States is by far the most religious of the prosperous nations and equally the one with the greatest levels of social problems.” - Study on Religion and Correlation to Moral High Ground

What they call indoctrinating – we call educating. But it is easy to see the confusion for them. We offer numerous opportunities for free thought and reason; while they tell you what you are going to believe damn it! Let’s look at these maps that show traditional Red State v Blue State voting districts, and then the US concentrations of evangelical populations…and just for fun the US map of highest teen pregnancy.

GOP States

So, these maps establish what we have known all along, and that is that the GOP is evangelical, or more aptly in today’s language, Political Dominionists.

Evangelical Deposits

Where the Bible Belt used to be… is mostly relegated to the southern Gulf States, with nomadic shifts in population and earnest evangelizing, the Bible Belt has grown with the  evangelical waistline.

And the last picture I will post shows the numbers by percentage of the states with the highest teen pregnancy rates…and I am certain that you will see the same pattern that so many have picked up on repeatedly. Extremism doesn’t work!

So why are they so damn mad at us? Because they are profoundly dismal failures in their own backyards. It is easier to preach what they themselves cannot do.

Bachman actually represents a state where there is a lower population of evangelicals – and oddly enough a lower incidence in teen pregnancy rates, with no help from her I might add.

But by god if she has it her way…that is surely going to change! Why the heathens couldn’t possibly have the wherewithal to live morally without her insistence that ALL are guided by her cultist faith! What will happen?

Lower divorce rates? Teen pregnancies and STDs? Reductions in domestic violence and child abuse? You have to be a submissive warrior(ess) in the army of Dominonist ‘c’hristianity to guide behaviors through purity and righteousness!

Look at Palin’s hometown. Number one in the entire United States of America in incidences of Assault, Domestic Violence and Rape. It’s a despicable thing to be number one in, especially for such a devout evangelical community.

This was my rant for the day after watching only 57 seconds of Bachman’s latest regurgitation of absolute garbage fed to her by her faith, her patriarchs and her direct line to God (that she professes to have regular access to).

It is hard to be a persecuted ‘c’hristian when the reasons for persecution are self-made.
