My agitation level has just been kicked up a notch.
When a presidential contender starts talking out of his ass, it should be clear to everyone that the whole electoral system needs some serious overhauling. When the best that this once great nation can do is to elect a semi-retarded, alcoholic, Jesus freak, (not once but twice no less), then maybe it is time to re-think the two party system.
Mr. McCain, so do you honestly believe that, and I quote you, "...the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation."
You sir, are an idiot. Have you ever read the Constitution? Should a presidential candidate be required to know something about our most important written document?
There is no mention of God, Jesus or Christ in that entirely secular document. Do you know what secular means, Mr. McCain? Have you ever heard of Thomas Jefferson, Mr. McCain? Well here’s a Jefferson quote that you probably never heard:
“Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law.” Letter to Dr. Thomas Cooper, February 10, 1814
Here’s another:
“Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity.” Notes on Virginia, 1782Now it seems to me that TJ, arguably our most influential founding father, thought of Christianity as nothing more than a cancerous affliction on mankind.
May God bless our Christian nation, you moronic idiot.
The Agitated Atheist.

I agree with you, I'm English and I consider the separation of church and state as THE most important foundation blocks to a functioning democracy.
We have over here the so called respectable arch bishop calling for us to make concessions to religion in particular to allow aspects of sharia law to be incorporated in our legal system. Why? he argues because people respond better to a mystical law giver than a concrete and completely provable state one.
If religious law took precedent over secular law, freedom would not exist. I hope McCain has more sense than that quote suggests.
It's enough to say that single minded and already brainwashed Americans are the only ones who support this well dressed god-fearing monkey.
