Skin color isn't a reason to dislike someone. It has no bearing on politics.

...nah, it's not really a reason. To say it's a "reason" would imply that there's some kind of reasoning behind it. And there isn't.

One-thurds of 'Muricans week go to Hevan with Babeh Jeebus and Gawd, for they are ritetous and holey, unlike the Mehicans. Yes, this whole post is sarcasm, I'm bored, and I wanted to mock the first guy on TV that I saw, which ended up being Limbaugh, so yeah...don't wanna get muted again...

No it doesn't.

: a statement or fact that explains why something is the way it is, why someone does, thinks, or says something, or why someone behaves a certain way

: a fact, condition, or situation that makes it proper or appropriate to do something, feel something, etc.

: the power of the mind to think and understand in a logical way

"I don't like Obama because he's black" fits the first definition.

But regardless, this is off topic. My post was a joke and I have no clue why you guys responded as though it wasn't.

* There is actually a War on Christmas. But Christmas started it, with it's unparalleled aggression against the Thanksgiving Holiday, and now Christmas has seized much Lebensraum in November, and are pushing into October. The rest of us seek to repel these invaders, and push them back to the status quo ante bellum Black Friday border. -Trotskylvania

Any religion that says that a senior citizen built a giant wooden watercraft, found two of every single species on earth that helps preserve our delicate ecosystem, even worse is that he would have to discover America and Australia to get a majority of those animals, and some how survived a flood in which there is no evidence supporting it happened, is a pretty crazy religion.
Any religion that says that a man talked to burning bush in a dessert is crazy.
Any religion that says you need to belong to them in order to be a good person is crazy.
Any religion that says "If you don't listen to that child molester yelling on the stage and read this book of lies and fairy tails or you'll burn in hell" is a crazy religion.
Any religion that says "Treat thy neighbor as thou would treat ones self" and "Do not kill" but at the same time kills millions for not believing their faith is crazy.
This whole news about one third of Americans not believing in evolution is not surprising at all judging by the hilarious antics in their story book.
