Prominent Republicans Are Promoting a Jackass America which Christ and Lady Liberty Would Reject with Contempt

American politicians are excellent at playing in the gutter — and always with other people’s guts

 

Consider these delightful examples of American exceptionalism:

 

 

Two candidates for the Republican presidential nomination advocated a “Christians only” policy for the resettlement of displaced Syrians and governors lined up to declare that Syrians were not welcome in their states, prompting an angry reaction from President Obama.

 

By early afternoon on Monday, the governors of Alabama, Michigan, Indiana, Louisiana, Arkansas, Illinois, Mississippi and Texas – all of whom are Republicans – had said that their states would not accept Syrian refugees.

 

Gov. Charlie Baker, of Massachusetts, also a Republican, said that he would not support the resettlement of Syrian refugees in his state until he is satisfied with the process being used to screen them for ties to ISIS or other terror groups.

It gets even more glorious

 

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie — not to be outdone in either irrationality or in the forceful pummeling Christ’s teachings — said:

 

 

The fact is that we need appropriate vetting, and I don't think orphans under 5 should be admitted into the United States at this point," Christie said.

 

"They have no family here. How are we going to care for these folks?" he asked.

 

"The fact is, you can come up with a number of different scenarios, Hugh [Hewitt, radio host]. But in the end, I don't trust this administration to effectively vet the people that they're asking us to take in. We need to put the safety and security of the American people first."

And don’t forget the ever illuminating Texas senator, Ted Cruz

 

That paragon of intelligence, humanitarian concern and open heartedness one-upped even the child-hating New Jersey governor by proposing a “Fuck Them All” legislative bill:

 

 

Sen. Ted Cruz, who has said that the United States should not allow Syrian Muslim refugees into the country but should provide safe haven to fleeing Christians, plans to introduce legislation that would bar Syrian refugees from entering the country.

 

Cruz has said it is "nothing short of lunacy" to allow Syrian Muslim refugees  into the country, particularly after Friday's Paris attacks.

Yes, this is the United States

 

We hate everybody who ain’t white, Christian, Confederate and can’t speak good Ameri-Kun.

 

And may God protect us from those vicious five-year Syrian kids.

 

 

The moral? — These are the Master Race and Religion Nasties who are hoping to win the 2016 presidential election

 

Makes ya real proud, don’t it?
