Top 10 lists are just too long for me. \u00a0Top 3 lists are more my speed- ha.<\/span>

\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Top 3 Ignorant Things to say about Obama<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#3 He’s Muslim. \u00a0Michele’s official portrait features her in a sleeveless dress. \u00a0That pretty well puts it to bed right there, but if you need more- \u00a0He was sworn in on a Bible twice and just gave a eulogy in a Christian church- two things no self-respecting Muslim would do.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#2 He was born in Kenya. \u00a0Not only isn’t this true, but even if it was it wouldn’t matter since his mother was a US citizen. \u00a0John McCain was born in Panama and not one person complained about that.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#1 He lied about his approval of marriage equality. \u00a0No he didn’t. \u00a0He changed his mind about it since 2007, just as 40% of the rest of the country did. \u00a0As I did. \u00a0<\/span>

\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Top 3 Reasons why defending the Confederate Flag is dumb<\/span>
\n(although I do think it was stupid to pull Dukes of Hazard off the air)<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#3 The South lost the war. \u00a0Usually when you lose a war you have to take down your insignia. \u00a0<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#2 Agreeing with Neo Nazis and white supremacists? \u00a0Not exactly a crowd I want to associate with.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#1 The swastika originated as a sacred Hindu symbol for austerity . Ask a Jewish person how they’d feel about bringing those flags back.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Top 3 Reasons why Fighting Marriage Equality is wrong<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#3 It’s not mandatory. \u00a0You can still marry another straight person, or not marry anyone at all. \u00a0You can still believe whatever you want and teach your kids whatever you want.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#2 \u00a0The United States is the 21st nation to make marriage equality the law. In NONE of the other 20 countries are pedophilia, bigamy or bestiality legal.\u00a0<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>#1 It’s in direct violation of the Constitution. \u00a0The First Amendment to be exact. \u00a0Freedom of religion means freedom for ALL religions, not just Evangelical Christians.<\/span>
