Mitt Romney: Obama Campaign Promises As Good As Kardashian Wedding Vows

[Bucky]

39. Perfectly agreed. I'm happy to leave religion out of politics.

That's the easiest way to avoid hate speech. My only objection were (1) the spreading of falsehoods, (2) the introduction of religious questions into a political argument, and (3) the perpetuation of religious hatred. I don't like it when Republicans do it, so I won't stay quiet when DUers do it.

Now some might argue that it was Christians who introduced religion into politics. Agreed. But they didn't do so here in DU, where our conversation was going on and where blatant hate speech was being used. Since the DUer trying to rationalize the hate speech has quit doing so in this thread, the matter's over.

I will only point out to you that among the people who "profess to believe complete bunk" and "who fell for such nonsense" include Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, JFK, MLK, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama. They may be suckers, but I certainly trust them (to a limited degree) to do the right and necessary things for governing the country.
