THE PROGRESSIVE PLEDGE: What Candidates Must Believe to Earn a Liberal's Vote

[waronignorance]

Teabag candidates are running around signing every asinine document shoved in front of their doughy faces by religious fundamentalist whack jobs and anti-government nihilists.

Here are the first 5 points of a 14 point Teabag Pledge:




1- Personal fidelity to my spouse.
2- Respect for the marital bonds of others.
3-Official fidelity to the U.S. Constitution, supporting the elevation of none but faithful constitutionalists as judges or justices.
4-Vigorous opposition to any redefinition of the Institution of Marriage – faithful monogamy between one man and one woman – through statutory-, bureaucratic-, or court-imposed recognition of intimate unions which are bigamous, polygamous, polyandrous, same-sex, etc.
5-Recognition of the overwhelming statistical evidence that married people enjoy better health, better sex, longer lives, greater financial stability, and that children raised by a mother and a father together experience better learning, less addiction, less legal trouble, and less extramarital pregnancy.

Progressives have their own damn pledge and it answers the baggers point by point ... all 14 (CAUTION: Adult Language).

1- My intimate relationships are none of your goddam business.
2- I don’t give a shit about the marital vows of others.
