The Governor of Wisconsin is clinically insane...Admits he hears voices...

Apparently the union-busting Governor of Wisconsin believes he is doing the work of the Lord. He claims that 'God' has told him what to do every step of the way, including what jobs to take, whom to marry and when to run for office.

So in other words a person that hears voices and then acts upon what the voices tells him has managed to be elected Governor of Wisconsin. What? Am I the only person that thinks that this shit is just crazy?

Why the fuck isn't he in a padded cell wearing a really nice long-sleeved jacket like every other person that claims they hear voices?

Ooooohhhh, that's right, it's because he said the voice belongs to "God"...That makes the "hearing voices" thing okay apparently...Quick question Governor, how do you know that's not "Satan" talking to you, or the "Tooth Fairy"?...Another question for you, did you actually read what God's kid Jesus (you know your "saviour" whom you pledged to "trust and obey") said about the poor and the sick? Did you miss the part about taking care of those that can't take care of themselves? (Matthew 25:40 and Matthew 5:5) How about the fact that the rich are denied access to "heaven" (Matthew 19:24). Was His message really 'Fuck the Unions'? I must have missed that part of the Bible.

Christians that are this delusional worry me...In fact, all "true believers" worry me, regardless of the brand of Jesus or Mohammed they smoke...but these cafeteria christians really worry me because they can so quickly deteriorate into rapturists when things start to go pear-shaped...
 
I am having a really hard time getting my head around the fact that this sort of batshit crazy religious mumbo-jumbo isn't being ridiculed and belittled for the rank hypocrisy that it is in the 21st century. Here we are as a species contemplating how best to protect Mother Earth (our only home) at the same time that we explore ever deeper into space through robotic probes and powerful telescopes, and yet we are still infested with pockets of these neanderthalsic cults that insist on flinging around their own poo and trying to kill each other with ever more sophisticated weapons.
 
God and his lad have been used by the religious nutters in this country for years to justify everything from slavery to the subjugation of women, and now union-busting makes the list. Great.
 
You know, if there is a God, He sure has a sick sense of humour...
