Super Stupid

Wow. Blackwell didn’t have a chance.

Wow, Blackwell is an idiot. he doesn’t use “bogart” correctly either.Equally troubling are those who believe the Constitution was drafted to limit the powers of the national government, conveniently forgetting that the exact opposite is the truth. For some reason, we have a tendency to forget the the Articles of Confederation provided for an extremely weak government and that the Constitution was designed to remedy the problems that arose from power being distributed to the States.

OK,Had to look it up to be sure but Judeo Christian Values is a useless statement. This is another form of prejudice against Muslims. How the fuck can Jews and Christians share the same beliefs but Muslims are left out. I am pretty sure that Jews don’t’ believe in the man Jesus Christ and Muslims do believe in the Prophet Jesus. By my math, that means Christians and Muslims are closer to the same belief system. However, the accurate term to describe these mythologies is Abrahamic. The means that everyone came from Father Abraham’s seed.

Ken Blackwell – Ignorant Twatwaffle with a ‘punch me’ face.Christopher made Ken look like the doofus that he is so Ken spoke over top of Chris thereafter. Ken also used the obligatory Mr. Rogers “I’m speaking very slowly so that the very young children can keep up.” delivery. This was the most annoying exchange I’ve seen on Hardball for some time just because Blackwell is such an arrogant undereducated ignorant twat. I hope that the republicans use him as a public spokesman often.Remember that Blackwell is the man that was in charge (he was OH Sec. of State) when Ohio’s vote was rigged in 2004. His office could not handle the tabulation so that was outsourced to the Republican operative that was also the webmaster of the reelect W national website as well as the Ohio Republican party website and many others. Several people went to jail over the Ohio 2004 election. Unfortunately Blackwell was not one of them.

Joe:You have a valid point that lots of people like to ignore. All three religions accept that Jesus existed: Christians as the Messiah, Jews as a Jew (who would be surprised to know that he is viewed as a the messiah,) and Muslims as a prophet of God. All three religions acknowledge the ten commandments. All have some kind of fast (and other eating directive.) This Judeo-Christian thing is a farce.I’ll say it again: any person with basic cable (and the History channel) should know that the founders acknowledged God, but never meant for the country to be governed by Him.

Another point. Everything that Christopher Hitchens said about the founding fathers was well documented fact. Franklin was an atheist that thought that Jesus Christ’s philosphy was a good way to live. You don’t have to believe in God or the Son of God to understand that his teachings make sense.Blackwell projects his belief system onto everyone and everything regardless of fact.

The problem with morons like Blackwell is that they can’t understand someone having morals without religion. I know it is immoral to steal or kill or commit adultery without having a Commandment from on high telling me that it’s wrong.

Blackwell’s issues rise from his need to connect with his subculture. His subculture told him and now he tells it back, that his version of truth is truth and righteous. If he could take a journey of thinking independent of his subculture, he would be able to find what we know and Hitchens knows.He is bound by his subculture. He is in a co-dependent relationship with it. He starts from a skewed perspective and until he is ready to step out from the unhealthy relationships, or at least take a look at what the opposition says with out Jebus glasses on – he’ll remain the same.Good news is, that this happens all the time. People become enlightened. They wake up. I did and I see it happening around me all the time.I agree with Git, keep bringing these guys out and let them talk, they help people re-examine their subculture co-dependence.

Hey Bob, Salon.com had this same video with a story that linked to a site known as: Newsbusters.comI don’t know if you’ve heard of this site before but if not, they seem to all excited about tea bags and why the liberal mainstream media hates them and Christianity.That is, definite wingnut territory.

ok, we all knew that Chris Hitch was gonna eviscerate him before we watched the videothe real challenge is:Who can find me a right wing blog site where people are commenting on “how Ken really took it to him with the point about the Pilgrims being SO christian etc etc?”

>>Wow, Blackwell is an idiot. he doesn’t use “bogart” correctly either.Lol I thought that too. Don’t just leave me dangling from your lips, Christopher Hitchens!

…… Could the contrast been any sharper??Hitchens looked half in the bag and still fed poor Blackwell a bowl full of frosted you’re-an-idiot.

“Equally troubling are those who believe the Constitution was drafted to limit the powers of the national government, conveniently forgetting that the exact opposite is the truth. For some reason, we have a tendency to forget the the Articles of Confederation provided for an extremely weak government and that the Constitution was designed to remedy the problems that arose from power being distributed to the States.”The point is that the federal government’s power has even superseded the bounds and intentions of what they established, not that there wasn’t a weaker idea on the table back then. You are confusing the founding fathers’ choice of a relatively stronger federal government for one that has no limit to its strength. You speak as if the Anti-Federalists were some separate cause who lost all influence once a stronger federal government was approved, but in reality, they became an integral part in the development of American political thought and the limiting of government, and were just as influential and as much “founding fathers” as the Federalists were.
