So...Jesus was illegitimate?
Advertisements [?]
So sayeth sage Chuck Norris:

What if Mother Mary had Obamacare?
Lastly, as we sit on the eve of another Christmas, I wonder: What would have happened if Mother Mary were covered by Obamacare? What if that young, poor uninsured teenaged woman were provided the federal funds (via Obamacare) and facilities (via Planned Parenthood, etc.) to avoid the ridicule, ostracizing, persecution and possible stoning because of her out-of-wedlock pregnancy? Will Obamacare morph into Herodcare for the unborn?

Ol' Chuckie may have opened a colossal can of worms if the fundies and true believers get aholt of this.

Merry Christmas, y'all.
;-)
