It wasn't funny because Tina Fey was purposely trying to destroy Sarah Palin along with the GOP and MSM. She is not a wicked, dishonest person and it is very disturbing to see this type of thing getting worse and worse in politics.
Yesterday and today, I am not laughing as the Right makes fun of Shelia Jackson-Lee's misstatement on how long our country has been founded. She said 400 years. She probably meant 200. It's stupid for everyone to jump on the bandwagon with that. I don't like her at all as a Leftist, but all the nitpicking is ridiculous and getting more hateful by the day.
I realize that I need to be careful with all of this myself. There is a lot of hate in politics and it can rub off on us making us less compassionate, understanding and ready to forgive.

I'll use the same line you posted a while back, "Liar liar skirt on fire." "You're lucky it's just an expression."
I know what I posted. I know you're lying. Stop.
I didn't not post something and then come back and edit while you were logging in. You changed your story cause you're lying. Stop.
I'm done arguing about this. You're nitpicky, hypocritical, dishonest, biased and frankly acting like a jerk. To use a few words you've said about me.

David, I said that in the context of both of his comments, I felt I understood what he meant. You didn't agree and that is fine. I still don't agree with you. I didn't ignore his actual quote. I included the whole thing, which you wanted to ignore. I think you are the one having problems with reading comprehension.

He simply believes that God was involved, and I don't doubt He was.
I understand him to mean the same thing that Adams says.

You didn't ignore or "skip over" his quote? You sure you want to stick with that claim, cause you should probably change your story right now before I prove you wrong....yet again.
Actually, I don't have the time or patience right now.
First, I posted the whole quote, not you! So I wasn't ignoring anything. Here's that post.

"Jesus died for our freedom... And Jesus destroyed Satan so that we could be free and that is manifested in what is called the Constitution of the United States. God created this nation and God created the Constitution; it is written on biblical principles."
Delay is cookoo... This is the problem with politicians playing preacher... Guys like Delay and Santorum butcher the Bible when trying to pander to religious voters.
Jesus died for our freedom...destroyed Satan so we could have the USA?
Seriously?.. This dude should stick to politics.

Second, here's your full, en-edited, complete post where you admit to skipping over (aka ignore) his quote.

Well, when I read his second quote - God created it, it was written on Biblical principles", it was apparent, he was saying he felt God had guided the men in the construction of the document. It was more a clarification for me. That's how I took it. It was like a no-brainer.
Gotta run, still painting on a tedious project. I keep taking little breaks so I won't get sloppy with it.

Actually, now I really do think you are acting like a jerk...

You did ignore it, you admitted such....twice.

This quote was AFTER I called you out on claiming he didn't say it when he actually did.

I didn't ignore it in the sense of not wanting to pay attention to it. I skipped over it because I don't know why you would post something with &ldquo several times. I didn't want to wade through the &ldquo to see what you were trying to say.
Anyway, the bottom line is that we have these two quotes by him. The second clarifies, for me, his point.

You don't agree with my view and I don't agree with yours. So, what is the argument about now?

Just looked at the post on my pc. Apparently the mobile app I use to post most of the time for some reason added the &ldquo to the parts with quotation marks. Not sure why. However, there were only four and it really wasn't that difficult to read even with those there.
