“Though the vast majority of Americans say they would vote for their party’s nominee for president in 2012 if that person happens to be a Mormon, 22% say they would not, a figure largely unchanged since 1967.” [Gallup]

“Gov.-elect Robert Bentley in a speech at a Baptist church this afternoon said he plans to be the governor of all Alabamians and be color-blind, but he also said people who aren’t ‘saved’ Christians aren’t his brothers and sisters.” [Birmingham News]

“Oklahoma State Senator Rex Duncan (R) is pushing for a ballot measure that would prohibit courts from considering international or sharia law when deciding cases. He says the measure is a ‘preemptive strike’ against ‘liberal judges’ who want to ‘undermine those founding principles’ of America.” [TPM]

The “True Republican PAC” would like you to know that if you nominate Bradley Byrne for Alabama governor, you’ll be forcing your kids to learn science and dooming them to an eternity in the Lake of Fire. Shame on you.

God, do we get horny when beauty-pageant bimbos go Old Testament on us:

“The Bible says that marriage is between a man and a woman. In Leviticus it says, ‘If man lies with mankind as he would lie with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death and their blood shall be upon them.’ The Bible is pretty black and white,” Ashley told Pop Tarts.

“I feel like God himself created mankind and he loves everyone, and he has the best for everyone. If he says that having sex with someone of your same gender is going to bring death upon you, that’s a pretty stern warning, and he knows more than we do about life.”

That would be Lauren Ashley, Miss Beverly Hills, who must attend one of the most bloody churches in town.

We usually wait for the DVD, but apparently Curb Your Enthusiasm has a more interesting plot twist this year than the Seinfeld reunion:

At one point in the show, David goes to the bathroom in a Catholic home and splatters urine on a picture of Jesus; he doesn’t clean it off. Then a Catholic woman goes to the bathroom, sees the picture and concludes that Jesus is crying. She then summons her equally stupid mother and the two of them fall to their knees in prayer. When David and Jerry Seinfeld (playing himself) are asked if they ever experienced a miracle, David answers, “every erection is a miracle.”

“Was Larry David always this crude?” asks the Catholic League. “Would he think it comedic if someone urinated on a picture of his mother?”

Yes. And, we suspect, Yes.
