Just read on FR yesterday that Carter and bubba are starting a new Southern Baptist organization for Southern Baptists who aren't narrow minded. Should we laugh or cry!

Perfect juxtaposition. Bubba and karter announce their intention to form a more perfect Southern Baptist Church and fourteen members of the Carter Center resign to protest his anti semitic book.

Bubba and the anti semite ~ perfect together.
