I am a realist and liberial ideas go against nature , I stand with nature as its wipes from earth unnatural things Like librerials. Ya mother is pissed she knows father is on his way . The time is near ya I say it God is at the door.

Hypothetically speaking, wouldn't Mother Nature be more likely to wipe out the party that favors rooting around in her innards and pulling out stuff like coal and oil than the party that favors gay marriage?
