Kasich: 'I Don't Read a Bible to Figure Out What I Think'(Scratch this guy from nomination)

Wow, I hope he keeps talking. We need him front and center repeating this crap.

[Melinator]

Lol! I heard that!

[laplata]

He’s being honest. And courting evangelicals hasn’t helped others much in the past anyway.

[SunkenCiv]

What's low at the beginning and IQ on the end?

[Resettozero]

Not a statement a Christian would make, even by slipping up.

(”My Muslim faith...”)

[laplata]

To be fair though, he might be meaning “to figure out what he ought to think.”

That’s what I think he was saying.

[chris37]

Usually when he’s on tv I just see his mouth twitching, which is kind of odd.

But I don’t like this puffed up frown face expression. It seems like all politicians make this face at some point or another, and someone always takes a picture of it.

“Kasich’s father was a mailman, BTW. In case you didn’t know.”

So what does that make him, ‘Son of Mailman’?

What on earth does that have to do with what he said?

[Jane Long]

LOL. I’ve heard that before ;-)

[bestintxas]

“As a strong “evangelical”, I took it to mean that perhaps he has created a solid foundation in Biblical principles in past years — perhaps since childhood. In which case, he wouldn’t have to read (present tense) the Bible each time he needs to make a decision. If solidly grounded in the Bible, then it’s part of who he is and “right thinking” would be natural.

I’m not a Kasich fan, but his statement cold be very benign.

Better read post #16 then on what he says on abortion.

Is he on meds? People that get out of prison don’t pay taxes. They recidivate or get on welfare. Honestly I think we are making them crazy now. They be walking crazy town.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

He never was on my list.

[laplata]

Kasich’s father was a mailman, BTW. In case you didn’t know.

And what is that supposed to have to do with anything?

“Render Unto Caesar” ... A direct “command” from Jesus Christ, not a mere sunday school “suggestion” ...

I think he said my dad’s a mailman maybe three times during the debate. Just commoners like the rest of us.

[Rodentking]

He is just another big government tool. Why not vote for a real Democrat?

[tflabo]

Down ya go Johnny K-— not that you were too far up to begin with. Say high to Goober Lyn-see on the way down the polls.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Obviously not, because this is what it says:

Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies, For they are ever mine. Psalms 119:98 NASB

[Artemis Webb]

Just plain stupid. He's not going to have any natural constituency with statements like this. The right isn't going to support him. The left is going to vote for the Democrat. I'm not sure how many “Lincoln Chafee Republicans” he thinks are out there to be had but hell, maybe they are his constituency. All 8 or 9 of them.
