So that’s why that happens

Are all Republicans this stupid, or just the ones who run for office?

An Illinois Republican running for Congress believes God has unleashed debilitating disorders and destructive natural disasters because he is so upset with the growing support for gay rights.

If you’re afflicted with autism or dementia, or if you’ve lost your worldly possessions due to a tornado, Susanne Atanus thinks you should blame the LGBT community.

“God is angry,” Atanus told the Chicago Daily Herald during an endorsement session with the paper earlier this week. “We are provoking him with abortions and same-sex marriage and civil unions,” she said. “Same-sex activity is going to increase AIDS. If it’s in our military it will weaken our military. We need to respect God.”

Atanus is seeking the GOP nomination to challenge Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) in the Ninth District of Illinois.

  1. God IS angry Ms. Atanus. But not at the people you think God is angry at. Right down the road from Davos where the 1% is meeting to decide our futures they are holding another meeting in Geneva. That one is all about the future of Syria. Who started the civil war in Syria? If you drill down you’ll find that it was started by one family (clan) in southern Syria supported by the CIA. Keep in mind that getting rid of Assad and installing an American puppet was one of Dick Cheney’s war goals. Kennedy couldn’t stop the Bay of Pigs invasion and Obama couldn’t stop Cheney’s plans for Syria. Is Assad the legitimate leader of Syria? The answer to that question is NOT up to the U. S. or anyone else. It’s up to the Syrian people. Is there any such thing as a “free and fair” election? Ask Al Gore. What God is angry at Ms. Atanus is war, death, corruption and greed. The stuff that the 1% is involved in.

  2. Once upon a time, I actually subscribed to the “Daily Herald”. Once upon a time, the rest of the paper was OK – but my blood pressure would soar whenever I spent any time on their editorial page looking at their list of Reich Wing writers and the candidates they would endorse.

    Most all endorsements were for candidates much like Ms. Atanus.

    Then I got the fine idea to cancel my subscription because I despised the paper’s political views. One of the better moves I’ve ever made.

    I would vote for Ms. Atanus on one condition – if she represented Uranus.

    Atanus from Uranus. Has a nice ring to it.

  3. Izquierdo – some people might be shocked to learn that we both graduated from junior high.

    Magna cum laude in my case. Or it may have been magma cum laude; it was a hot day as I recall.
