We Are Either A Nation Of Laws

...or we aren't.

Idaho GOP gubernatorial candidate Rex Rammell says saving the U.S. Constitution requires God's help. Rammell's thoughts are captured in a nine-minute excerpt from a recent news conference now available on YouTube.

"America would not exist if it wasn't for the divine hand of providence in not only intervening to win the Revolutionary War but in writing the inspired words of the Constitution," Rammell says in the video. "To think that we can save the Constitution without God's help when the government of the United States is corrupt is absurdity."

Adds Rammell: "We are in America's second Revolutionary War to save our freedom, which we paid for with blood. We need God's help and I'm not ashamed to ask for it."

Rammell says he has invited about 100 Mormon men to a Jan. 19 meeting in Idaho Falls to discuss the "White Horse Prophecy," which some attribute to Mormon Church founder Joseph Smith. The prophecy, which is not embraced by top Latter-day Saints Church officials, holds that the Constitution "will hang ... by a single thread" and LDS leaders will step forward to preserve it.

No really, that's what he said.


This guy's running for Governor of Idaho.  Personally, I hope this guy wins the primary and Hoffmans current GOP Gov. Butch Otter.  It'll be nice to see a Democrat take the reins up there like Keith Allred.

The crew over at 43rd State Blues have been following the adventures of Potatohead Rex for some time now, so drop in and say hello.
