ummm, Jewish people believe in the 10 commandments. It's the NEW testament that they don't accept (yes, I know, there are some differences between the Jewish, Catholic and Protestant versions of the commandments, but all 3 are pretty similar).

But the bigger issue is why the hell are y'all fighting over Kinky vs. Bell when everyone knows that either one of them would be a million times better than One Hypocritical Grandma or "Sell the parks to developers and move the gays out of my state" Perry? Save your bile for these two asshats who are leading in the polls.

"KINKY" AND RICK "THE HAIR" PERRY HAVE SOME DEALS GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES. YOU MARK MY WORDS.

Whitney, can you, or any other Kinky supporter, tell he how he can possibly justify voting for GW Bush in the last election??? He's still proud of it! That's a deal killer in my book. Not to mention, pro placing the 10 commandments in public schools and a border policy that makes the minutemen look like Jimmy Carter. Yes Kinky is independent, but he isn't progressive. Just another Bubba.
