Oklahoma Republican Blames Economic Woes On Obama, Debauchery
By Brian Beutler - June 30, 2009, 11:57AM
The Oklahoma legislature isn't a stranger to wacky right wing political posturing--but now, via Jonathan Turley, comes a doozy.
{W}hat caused the economic problems that caused the stimulus package that aroused Gov. Sanford? Oklahoma Rep. Sally Kern has finally answered that question: our sins. Kern has drafted a resolution that puts the current economic crisis squarely on the backs of libertines and godless people who have produced a moral crisis. This includes Obama's refusal to "uphold the long held tradition of past presidents in recognition of our National Day of Prayer."
You can read the entire resolution below the fold. But the basic gist of it is that the country is suffering because it "has become a world leader in promoting abortion, pornography, same sex marriage, sex trafficking, divorce, illegitimate births, child abuse, and many other forms of debauchery." Good to know complex financial products had nothing to do with it.
