Not only is Obama a Kenyan and a socialist, he’s also a woman, so that’s three good reasons she shouldn’t be President.

Not an OP, but I’ve got the perfect followup post for this one, to insure the train wreck:

But then how would the gay “men” tell which of the women were “women” so they could hook up with the right ones? If “she” accidentally got a real lesbian, then both would be heterosexual.

If Train A leaves Chicago headed for Cleveland at 2pm, and Train B leaves Cleveland headed for Chicago at the same time, when will they meet if no one throws the switch taking one off the other’s track?

1. They were doing something sinful and didn’t notice Noah’s Ark was pulling away from the dock.
2. They are not extinct. They are just horses now, since their horns were all declawed.

Why don’t gay people at least try normal sex? They might like it and then they wouldn’t have to be gay anymore. Plus then they wouldn’t catch any gay diseases.

Many transexuals and gay men try to lure straight men into having sex with them. They are naturally going to get beat up and killed when they are found out, especially if they’ve been successful, and they got no right to complain, they brought it all on themselves … if they had stuck with other gays, it would never have happened.

The Gabrielle Giffords shooting demonstrates one irrefutable truth: women shouldn’t hold political offices. It’s basic biology. Women should stay in the roles where they belong and let men handle the dangerous work.

on a fertility board:

I’m trying to get pregnant again for the 4th time and it’s been 2 months of trying and nothing yet! I got pregnant with my first three little angels practically by thinking about it it was so easy! Do you all have any tips on how to get knocked up again? I’d like to do it before I get old, I’m already 25 and the clock is ticking!  
It’d be a slaughter 😃

I hate it when Obama implicitly lays claim to miraculous healing powers by saying that Giffords opened her eyes right after he’d visited.
