The lead nincompoop of the religious right, Rick Santorum believes he has the cure to what ails America. Bibles. If only the evil left wasn't so powerful and did away with the good book, gays would still be in their closets.
In a speech Saturday to the far-right Awakening conference organized by Liberty Counsel, Rick Santorum told the audience of pastors and activists that it was up to them to save America by, in part, getting Bibles back in public schools.
The left cannot be successful in a country of God-given rights,” he said. “It can’t. Because they want to be the purveyor of rights, and if God is the purveyor of rights, then they lose. We have an obligation to educate, to form, within our churches to preach, within our families to educate, and to fight within our schools. Why are Bibles no longer in public schools? Don’t give me the Supreme Court. The reason Bibles are no longer in the public schools is because we let them take them out of the public schools.”
He added a variation on President Obama’s campaign chant: “You say, ‘Well we can’t get them back in.’ Yes we can. Yes we can!”
Has anyone asked Rick this question? (It would be perfect if George Carlin had done the honors.) If God really wanted bibles in public schools - why aren't they already under every student's desk right now?
