I'm an Idiot and I Don't Vote

Tony Perkins, of the Family Research Center sent me a tearful newsletter this morning titled The GOP's Social Insecurity. Mr. Perkins tries to calm a jittery GOP ready to dump the albatross of conservative Christians, like the loon in the video above. Tony wrote,

With the exception of Gov. Sarah Palin and some hollow overtures by the Democratic Party, the 20 percent of voters who cited "moral values" as their first or second priority in this election had no real horse in this race. Maybe that explains why believers were less active in this election cycle. More than four million Americans who go to church more than once a week and voted in 2004 stayed home on November 4. Those voters would have made up half the difference between McCain and Obama.

So even if all the churchgoers had voted the GOP still would have lost.

Tony, you and your hate mongering minions are increasingly irrelevant, as you have astutely admitted. You abandoned God and she returned the favor.
