Since the dims are a bunch of GODless atheist imbeciles, I'd say they are SOL!

I for one pray daily for our country, that the Living God would remove the evil that He has rightly afflicted us with in Obama and his minions, and replace all the godless people in government with evangelical Christians. We once were a nation under God.
