Except for the parts they don’t like, like the separation of church and state.

Christians of the asshole persuasion always think it’s an argument stopper to invoke god into their gun arguments. why? I haven’t the foggiest.

Once you get to the parts about equality, voting rights, and paying taxes, it's up for debate by mere mortals and God looks the other way.

I often wonder if people like Huckabee are serious, or if they're just reciting from a right wing script that they know is bullshit.

Chapter 1, verse 6: "Let no man deprive thee of thy AR-15, For as it is yours, it is mine. Thy AR-15 and thy high-capacity magazine, they shall comfort thee. And thou shalt not be kept by man from fellating same at night."

Or something like that...................

I seen a drawing of Jesus riding a triceratops into Jerusalem - 'cause the earth is only 6,000 years old ya know -- and he had an assault rifle over his shoulder in case he ran into a T-rex on the way.

Democrats say we can't get common sense gun control laws passed because of the corruptive influence of the gun industry and the NRA.

That's true up to a point, but another obstacle are the knuckle dragging gun humpers who swollow the kind of crap spewed by SH Sanders.

Or is it because politicians are easily bribed?

Is it a 'campaign contribution' if both the giver and receiver of the money know there are strings attached?
(Obvious answer is obvious - it's a bribe, plain and simple.)

HucaSans has drunk the Trump KoolAid. Intelligence and rational logic are lost, clear signs.
