And now the descendants of Jim Jones's followers support Barack Obama. It must be genetic.

The most obscure...? If it was that obscure, we still would not know it. Let's tap the brakes a little. Interesting not obscure....maybe.

7:30 - true, but remember the Republicans are always right.

God told them so, through Rush and Bush.

730 & 857 - How many registered Republicans do you think there were in Jonestown?

Jim Jones's constituents were exactly the same demographic as Barack Obama's. I think most of Jones's sermons were about "hope" and "change."

I'd say a bunch of R's were in Jonestown.....

....those folks will follow anybody..

..who thumps a Bible.

...no questions asked..

...pass the "kook" aid.

1244 - You would be wrong. You're looking at the world through Dem-colored glasses.

Check the expiration on your demographics. They seem to be out of date.

I don't know what a "mass urder" is but,I hope I'm never involved in one.

Somebody asked how many Republicans were at the Jones compound. Not sure anyone knows the answer, but lets see....
Gave up Liberties willingly,
Followed with Blind Obedience,
Did not question any motives,
Glad to give up everything to be part of the Cult,
Done what they were told to do, even commit sucide.
Done what they were told to do, kill the ones that would not obey for some reason and commit sucide.
Think their leader could do no wrong.
Were plain mean.
How many Republicans? I'd guess 100%.

Huh,4:23 that's weird I thought you were going to rount that one out to being about Democrats. It would have been more factually correct I suppose but, no more clever.
