Everyday Politcal Rhetoric from the Christian South

Everyone at the WUW? office loves waking up in the morning to check our Facebooks because someone will likely have great material to write about... Today is no different.

We are attempting to meet another deadline so we will revisit this later but a few thoughts as your read:

1. Do Christians really debate who to fear more - Mormons, Muslims, or Socialists?

2. Do they not see the hypocrisy in these statements?

3. How can anyone claim that Rick Perry has done great things for this state when education is in ruins.

4. Sarah Palin? Really?

A few days ago we asked how Fox News can get away with the trash it puts on television...


Courteys of Media Matters and  The Atlantic
well I think we found our answer...

    Take a look at this site and watch college students trying to justify their stand on affirmative action. They seem totally content regurgetating what "they" say instead of thinking for themselves.

    Adjusting has become our downfall, and we can't blame anyone but ourselves. We send students to the office for bullying and the parents are called and the parents get arrested by the Police!!! how's that for parenting skills.....

    I would love to see a Perry/Bachman ticket. My only concern about Perry is that I don't think he is a very social conservative, mainly because he doesn't really have to be in TX... The people of tx pretty much carry that. So I don't know ...that he would be steadfast on social issues. Even though our country is in an economic disaster, I think the culture and moral aptitude of our country is such a catalyst of what happens fiscally. And there's my two cents. I am still completely undecided on who I like, but I'm not a fan of Romney. Why doesn't he just say, "Romney care was a disaster for MA, and I will do everything I can to defund and repeal Obamacare."?See More

    Oh yeah - he thought Texas could secede according to our rights when we joined the Union I think

    I am not committing yet, but he is so awesome! Check out Michele Bachman, Sara Palin, and on and on.... The Republicans have an amazing group of nice men and women!

    Herman Cain is one of the nicest people - he sat at a table and talked to me for quite a while - that means he will talk to anyone!
