Praying for Romney

Listening to AM radio, specifically bill Bennett and Chris steagall (whatever) in my local Philly market, there was a lot of talk about praying for mittens, and that America would go the "right way." Also got a robocall from the Liberty PAC, to pray that Obama, "insanely committed to gay marriage and abortion" loses.

So how do the fucking goppers now reconcile Obama winning with their futile prayers?

If mittens won they would be all over the god shit, but I hear nothing about gods will. Shitheads.

It is such a crock... built in success regardless of outcome.

Saying the Devil is winning. A good strategy for them to frighten their followers into giving them more money to fight the Devil for Jesus.

way people felt when the Old Confederacy fell. God don't listen to Bill Bennett. Just like Abraham Lincoln said, it is preordained. You cannot go backwards. Bill Bennett's time has passed. How does equality feel Bill? You will probably be saying Madame President in the future or Senor President if you live long enough.

The old white dude lives to say the words Madame president before he dies of lung cancer.

But you said...

No, you just have to believe and take it by faith.

But Obama is now President ...

Satan is a very smart trickster.

But, but ... never mind.

Is the current line. God did it for a reason, no mention of the American people, and their rejection of magic.

Let God grant you the long life you need to spend all your money, plus one more day to spend being broke.
May you be granted the peace, tranquility and complete obscurity you deserve.
May you be free to hire illegal immigrants.
May you be free to fire people who serve you.
May you abide in the company of sycophants and call it bipartisanship.
Let your heart be content with the damage you have already done to American body politic.
May you forget the disappointment of your loss as quickly as we forget about you.

She said she supported Obama in 08' (though she doesn't have any proof of that) and she said something similar to what the people you are talking about said on FB. It just makes me really wonder.
