Blast from the past from my religious nutjob sister in law [View all]

I was cleaning out old emails today and found one of my fundie sister in law's FWD/FWD/FWD emails that Obama was going to outlaw Christianity and force everyone into Islamic interracial gay marriages. It was from early 2008... in the days Palin was sending out emails with targets over "terrorists" running for Congress (aka Democratic Party candidates)

So I bounced it back to her today and asked if the cops have barged into her house yet to burn her bibles and Kirk Cameron movie collection slapped a burqa on her, handed her state issued divorce papers from my brother and her new marriage license to a black lesbian.

About an hour later I got a call from my dear sweet brother laughing like a hyena. Said she was madder'n a wet hen.

GOOD. Her embarrassment and shame were well earned.

The irony is her party, the GOP, seeks to force women to give birth. SunSeeker Jun 2015 #21

That is the most egregious of all—the forced birth. Enthusiast Jun 2015 #24
