God doesn’t waste time talking to politicians

Considering the dismal record of our members of Congress - who have many lobbyists buying their votes - it's time to remove every one of them in the next election.
President Barack Obama has done well, considering the awful mess he inherited from George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld. Take the time to research the truth about each candidate and don't be misled by the Fox News and Tea Party lies.
When candidates such as Michele Bachmann, Sarah Palin and Rick Perry say they are getting visions and God is talking to them, don't be fooled. If the Creator answered frivolous and inane prayers, I would have won the Powerball lottery along time ago!
