thats true but the bad thing is is that the next thing they'll start yelling is "crucify him"
Unfortunately. Hopefully the majority won't forget and at bare minimum leave the republicans for the libertarian party.
Did you all know that they "vote" in communist vietnam ? Yup, sure do and they take "get out the vote to the extreme" as it's mandatory. Don't show up to vote and the police will bring the ballot to you and it won't be a happy smilely thing. You WILL vote. They even run 2 candidates. They basically say the same thing somewhat differently but of course the end result is the same. That's a communist system.

when Pilate brought out Jesus to the crowd of Jews, he asked the crowd who he should release to them (it was customary to allow one prisoner to be released). Barrabas was a rabble-rouser and had led an attempted coup which horribly failed.
Jesus had done nothing wrong. He had broken no laws, and He was the Jews' Messiah, but they knew Him not.
the crowd cried for Barrabas' release and for Jesus' crucifixion.
because of their hatred based on preconceived notions and tradition, they crucified their Savior.

Although with this GOP, maybe it should be:
"Release Roger"!
"Release Roderick"
"Release Romney"
"Release Roger"!
"Release Roderick"
"Release Romney"

It could make for a powerful video, if it could be done in a way where RP is seen as the savior from economic diaster, WWIII, and Tyrrany rule. You wouldn't want it to be used by the media as a direct comparison to Jesus Christ. Remember what happened to the Beatles.
I'm trying to picture how manadatory voting would go down here. We could end up with a Kardashian in the WH.
