Ashamed


"I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm a Christian," Rick Perry tells us in this ad,  titled Strong, just before launching into a little hate mongering against gays in the military. He then fantasizes that "our kids can't openly celebrate Christmas, or pray in school."

This is a guy that George Will thinks is one of two viable candidates to come out of the Republican Freak Show. Which tells you everything you need to know about George Will.



Don't Ask, Don't Tell ended in September 2011.  Despite the predictions of some, implementation was a non-event.

In a Gallup poll taken last December, 67 percent supported repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."

People who attended church monthly supported repeal 64 percent to 32 percent.

People who attended church weekly supported repeal 55 percent to 40 percent.

Why would anybody be ashamed to admit that he's a Christian? Maybe because of Christians like Rick Perry.
