Yesterday on MSN.com they ran a big story about how Obama's poll numbers against the Republican candidates are weak. The biggest news in the article was that Obama would lose an election to Romney if it was held today.
So of course today's story bashes Romney.

Bachmann says Irene is message from God to DC.
That's the headline, both of the article, and the headline being run on MSN.
Of course, when you actually read the article (and to their credit they put this in the first paragraph) you find this:
Three things...
1. The headlines are perfect "gray area" material for anyone who wants to make her look like an idiot. Even if she did actually say it in jest, taking it out of context is a way to hurt her.
2. She's an idiot. First she's guzzling foot long corn dogs like she's 12 beers into a kegger at a frat house, and now she's making jokes about a hurricane that did actually kill some folks.
3. On a different note, the Republican candidates' constant use of God annoys the piss out of me. For once I'd like to see a Republican candidate say "My religion and religious beliefs are my own business. Judge me for my actions as a leader, and by my record. Don't just assume that I'm ideal for this job because I worship the same God in the same way as you." Then the candidate never mentions God again until his/her swearing in ceremony. Sure, they might be seen leaving their church after services, but they don't address it.

Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann's campaign said Monday she was only joking when she described Hurricane Irene and last week's earthquake in the eastern United States as a warning from God.

If they did that, they wouldn't be a Republican. Used to be that would be fine and dandy, but these days the Republicans have become synonymous with Christian Right. The two are inseparable, at least for now.Leisher wrote:3. On a different note, the Republican candidates' constant use of God annoys the piss out of me.

Do you think we're seeing all the racist talk from the black Dems because more blacks are skewing Republican or Indy?
I realize the numbers are still low, but they are growing.

And earlier Wednesday, Jason Tomsci, a Carson aide, said the congressman’s sentiments were valid. “Members of the tea party are holding up a lot of things that the president wants to do and want to gut critical services and programs that they know are important to African Americans as well as Latinos and other minorities,” Tomsci said.
