Rock bottom.

Mr roT said...: Tecs buys Romney's rube-baiting hook, line and sinker.

Some people just aren't at a stage for democracy; they advocate speech codes to protect loonier than usual religions from scrutiny.; 10/18/2011 10:59 AM
Tecumseh said...: I thought this is a campaign to elect the US President, not a theological debate. Evidently, Perry (egged on by Mr Rot) believes it's the latter. I'll stay with the Constitution, where the role of the President is clearly defined.; 10/18/2011 12:18 PM
Mr roT said...: We are allowed to discuss faith in American politics.

That ok with you?; 10/18/2011 12:28 PM
Tecumseh said...: First Amendment guarantees that. So the question is a non-sequitur, and a red herring to boot.

The real point is, there should not be a religious test when electing a President, or any other elected Federal official. That's explicitly mentioned at least a couple of times in the Constitution, if you ever bother to read that document. But of course, a basic tenet of Rotter Logick is that Article $m$, Section $n$ never applies, so there you go.; 10/18/2011 4:37 PM
