Could you ever have a meaningful relationship/friendship with an athiest MJ?

[MelissaJenna]

Absolutely! Some of my dearest friends are staunch atheists. I love love love them, and we have the best conversations of all of my friends.

[DangerousTalk]

So your idea of "service" is to bribe people in third world countries with food, water, and medical supplies to join your religion? I think it would have been a real service if you would have sent the supplies without the missionaries! Next time leave your Jesus at home!

[MelissaJenna]

Maybe I didn't explain our "mission" in Zambia clearly. We were there to bring donations and clean water to people who need it. No reason to be so aggressive.

Why all the hating on Obama, y'all? When did I ever mention a thing about Obam?. I swear, sometimes this place makes me crazy.

[InjunJoe]

Obama is trying to fix this country you moron!!! after Bushie and the Repubs F'd it up big time!!! Open your eyes!!!

[dstone2004]

The "ruining this country" started years before Obama became president.

2000 national debt was 5 trillion

2008 national debt over 10 trillion

Some can be accounted for but the other few trillion was stolen, and made alot of inner party republicans very rich.

@DanielDamascusKimery

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

[4pgh412]

Hey @InjunJoe, it's now 2011 and Obama is doing one hell of a job trying to "fix" our country. On the contrary, he's DESTROYING it!!!! Great job in your contribution to electing a moron. Obama has effed it up a billion times worse. It's now over 14 TRILLION. He's racked up over 4 TRILLION $'s of debt since he became president. I think it's time YOU and the other idiots who elected him OPEN YOUR EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[InjunJoe]

@DanielDamascusKimery Thank you very much!!

[DanielDamascusKimery]

@InjunJoe Spoken like a try communist. You make Lenin, Mao, and Stalin very proud comrade.

@DanielDamascusKimery

Obama needs to declare Marshall Law and start rounding up the Tea Party Terrorists, torture them until they admit they are in allegiance with Osama Bin Laden and then ship them off to Guantanamo forever!

[DanielDamascusKimery]

Yeah I loved how he took our jobs away and then asked us to volunteer as opposed to being paid for our labor. What I hate about you Obama worshipers is that you try to justify every terrible thing that he does because you are more afraid of the first Black President having a poor public image than you are of him ruining our country and then giving it lock stock and barrel to his Banker Buddies like Tim Geithner and Ben Bernacke with the Fed Reserve and the NWO Vampires aka The Bilderberg Group.

[DanielDamascusKimery]

@InjunJoe Yeah that's why in his first year in office he spent more money than any President in history and has since past bills that gave us an additional 34 trillion in obligations. I'll break this down for you since you suck at math. That's millions of dollars for every person in the country.

Charity and what? Sorry I was distracted. God really did some great work on those boobies. Good-ness.

Obama seeks to recruit Girls scouts to fight terrorism...that is a big jump from baking cookies.  Google: Homeland Security, Obama, girl scouts.
