2. AGREE 100%...the Bush Christians have made the Bible situation specific.

3. Sad, isn't it? But their followers don't bother to think either.
I give up. I don't care anymore. Not for them anyway. They are utterly phony. :-(

4. I am a christian......
and * is the closest thing to the anti-christ I have ever seen. I hate how he has hijacked our country in the name of God. Other christians I know that voted for him, did it because the repug party always claims to be pro life and anti gay. I can not explain how they overlook the fact that he is none of these things: Dead soldiers, dead Iraqis, more abortions, etc. As for me, I am a christian who is pro choice, pro gay rights, pro civil rights, etc. I have never in my life voted for a repug and I never will. I am also an American and I believe my vote is cast not only for me, but for my fellow citizens. I can separate my church and my state. I have no right to place my beliefs one way or another on my fellow citizens. I have no right to judge others about anything. I do not claim to know what Jesus thinks of homosexuals, etc. if that makes any sense. My sister is a lesbian. I know their pain and I know Jesus loves her, too. That was his way. He loves everyone. Sorry to ramble, yet I felt the need to explain that not all christians align themselves with the idiot in the oval office. Thanks for listening.

11. You hang in there!
Forgivness is the most Quaint thing of all I guess, to the neoChristian enablers! Bush might be fooling some of the fools on earth, but he's fooling himself most of all.

5. Turning the moneylenders' tables...forget that, we need bankruptcy reform
I've been trying to tell people for years, today's "Christian Conservatives" are neither. They are just a cult.

6. Maybe "honor thy father and thy mother" is out the window with them, too
...if Bush-lovers can go around calling the mother of one of our country's fallen soldiers a "whore," "slut," and the like.

12. With all due respect, Mr. MoPaul, I understand your sentiments
However, I think the post title just gives the Freeps and the mouthbreathers reason to tell the MSM not good things about us. Just my humble opinion.

14. This is the Uncle Sam I know.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

It is a simple rule, and golden in its simplicity. It is the basis of all. It is the Geneva Convention. It is the Magna Carta. It is the Constitution. It is Jesus.

15. Truth Justice and the American Way
I really miss Christopher Reeves. The world was a lot nicer and a lot brighter back than. We had different ideas sure but it was understood that basically we were all on the same team. Now it's a never ending battle.
