Very short diary.
I just went out and put a Mormons for Obama bumper sticker on my car.
About two weeks ago, someone sharpied out the Obama-Biden '08 bumper sticker on my wife's car. (She is Catholic, BTW). It was parked at the YMCA in Dripping Springs, Texas just 20 minutes outside of Austin. I was really upset. Cuz ya know, the Y is where only good, fair, Christianlike Christians hang out.
I got the my Mormons for Obama sticker from Cafe Press, bless their bipartisan souls.
I got the idea for the sticker from a few liberal Mormon groups on Facebook.
Now I know that being a Mormon totally disqualifies me from liberaldom and probably from justifiable membership in DK, according to some here, but I am what I am. And to these people I concede worthy reasons to feel a high degree of crapitudinal opobrium towards Mormons, I feel about 88% the same as you. But I digress.
Part of the reason that I put on the sticker is that certain people that is see at church and have occasion to interact with at work are Foxer Rushite Beckster Purple Meanies.
One said that we should pray for GlennB**k in Church and God Bless GB. I got up and walked out. Another said he'd vote for a dog before Obama. Another at work said "How 'bout Romney", and when I replied "Just cuz I was a Mormon, I wasn't voting for him because I don't vote for Republicans." and then he said, "Oh yea, your're one of those Liberal Co*ksuckers." He was my supeior officer for the day but I called him on it and said it wan't ok to say that , especially because he was my supervisor. This guy is a Born Again and ribs me for being a Mormon whenever he sees me. There are a few others, unnamed.
This bumper sticker is for them.
I am open to suggestions for a new one to replace the one on my wife's car.
This time I'll let the Orange Whirlpool of Fate suck away anything else I might say.
