Remember when Pat Robertson declared that Hurricane Katrina was God punishing New Orleans for being sinful? Remember when he said that the great tsunami was God punishing Thailand, Indonesia, etc, killing millions of people because they weren’t born Christian? Remember after the Haiti earthquake he announced on television that God was punishing Haitians for their ancestors having made a “pact with the devil” to free them from slavery, a combination of good old right wing historical revisionism, racism, and Christianizing?

Well, it’s clear to me. The winter storm of the century has hit Washington DC, and God is punishing Congress for listening to lobbyists and the assholes on C Street and failing to pass meaningful health care and economic reform.

So there. Somebody had to say it.

BAD GUMMI BEARS!

It doesn’t really make any sense, but when it comes down to it, none of them do.

Photos showing Hitler and other top Nazis using religion for their own ends, and religious dignitaries shamelessly cooperating.

Those who cannot remember the past are doomed to repeat it.
