A great time to listen to some cheery music from the Watchmen soundtrack. =)

I think that the black kid who can control electronics is "Rebel" from Heroes.

He hasn't showed up in a while and it's just the sort of stupid plot twist the writers would use.

It probably will be. Which is lame. I wish they hadn't killed off Hana Gitelman or Richard Drucker from the comics.

Heroes would be so much better if all of the plot "twists" weren't so painfully obvious.

EDIT: Good Jesus. I've been watching the new episode "Shades of Gray".

I just sing out the next plot twist, five minutes before it happens.

They could be a bit more subtle about it, like not have Nathan Patrelli stand in front of a door-sized window, talking to a man who wants to prove he can fly. Any bonehead who can put two and two together can figure out what comes next.

And if Matt wasn't such a dork.

But yes, it is an entertaining show.

My roomate just spent 4 hours getting burger king (or at least that's what he told me), and he just got home. Wtf moment when he walked in the door with a missing shoe.

I've been watching the videos on, "Why Obama is not a Christian," and videos similar to that effect.

I must say. I am quite amused.

Why they believe that their mocking of him is justified... is beyond me.
Youtube Commenter wrote:God doesn't exist. If he did, why is a black man president instead of a Jew?"
That comment amused me quite a bit. The person must be an idiot. It's not like we've had 43 other presidents who weren't Jewish...

The Christian Anti-Defamation Society interpreted things from his speeches that he did not say, nor did he obviously seem to mean.

I watched a video in which he was insulted for mocking the Bible.
He says, and I'm paraphrasing, "It's difficult to find guidance for government in the Bible. Should we take advice from Leviticus, which says that slavery is acceptable? Or should we take advice from Deuteronomy, which says that you can stone your child, for straying from the Faith? Or maybe we should take guidance from the Sermon on the Mount, advice that our own defense systems would be unable to handle."
The dude goes off on how he mocked the Bible, and gets so pissed off, or something of that nature.

I really thought that the Church would argue this stuff more effectively. They're doing quite a poor job at legitimately insulting him.

I'm amused. Quite really. This is almost a rant, because the whole subject is stupid, and that people actually buy into it are...idiots , but it's so amusing.
I won't say that everything bad about him is false. He's got his pros and his cons. But the attacks that some people make are just funny.

I apologize if this goes under "Not permitted because its a political and religious comment." Feel free to delete it if it's 'unfit' for the forum. I just thought this whole thing about him was hilarious.

I thought it was still going. I stopped watching a while ago because of how bad it was.
