Roy Moore spokesman gets schooled on CNN
December 14, 2017 at 11:00 pm
While gorging myself on ribs at L Woods, my Dad showed me this:
Of course, Jake Tapper failed to mention one other point that could have shut him up even more: this issue is addressed in the Constitution, and it's one of exactly two mentions of religion in the Constitution (and the only one in the Constitution proper):
The U.S. Constitution, Article 6, Clause 3 Wrote:The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.
One has to wonder how far Crockett's mouth would have ended up opening if Tapper read that to him.

I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad.

Indeed, as much fun as a surreptitious testicle chortle !
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

To my USA friends: how could an atheist be legally sworn into political office in the US.
Is it like the Jury system here, where I just have to make an affirmation that I will serve as a juror with honesty and integrity etc.?

Yet in Pennsylvania, if you are atheist, you are not permitted to hold any office.
Why aren't these types of issues challenged here and in other states where your right to not believe in a deity prevents you from holding office?

Yes. You would just say "I affirm".

WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE ARE NOT A THEOCRACY? I didn't give you the deer in the headlights look for nothing!
I bet Muslim Congressman Kieth Ellison has a far higher IQ than this dumbfuck, and it is clear this moron has not read the Constitution's oath of office.

The thing is that according to Yeshua (Jesus) Christians are forbidden to swear any kind of oath. Maybe the dummy should read the fairy tale instead of swearing oaths on it.
Matthew 5:34-37 (CEV) = "34 But I tell you not to swear by anything when you make a promise! Heaven is God’s throne, so don’t swear by heaven. 35 The earth is God’s footstool, so don’t swear by the earth. Jerusalem is the city of the great king, so don’t swear by it. 36 Don’t swear by your own head. You cannot make one hair white or black. 37 When you make a promise, say only “Yes” or “No.” Anything else comes from the devil."

It was hilarious indeed.
But I was about to type "Whatever floats your boat" until I realized you said "That was a hoot" and not "That was hot"
