Harris Calls Dem's Policies Unchristian

By STEPHEN MAJORS
The Associated Press
Friday, October 6, 2006; 5:55 PM

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Republican Senate hopeful Katherine Harris says Florida's
Democratic incumbent supports unchristian political policies.

Harris _ whose comments were made on a Christian radio network and published
Monday by Agape Press, a Christian news service _ did not mention specific
policies, but she has repeatedly berated Sen. Bill Nelson for not supporting
a ban on certain late-term abortions and a constitutional amendment banning
gay marriage.

-snip-

"Instead of questioning Nelson's faith like she's doing, she should be spending
time answering questions about her ethical problems," Nelson spokesman Bryan
Gulley said. "Harris is one of the most polarizing figures in politics and not
representative of the mainstream."

With about a month to go before the Nov. 7 election, Harris trails Nelson
by double digits in most polls. She has had a rough campaign, with questions
about her dealings with a corrupt defense contractor, multiple waves of staff
resignations, and top Republicans initially trying to recruit another candidate.

1. If you mean un-wacko, unlunatic, untheocratic...
Yes, us Democrats are all that, and more.

Thank you, K-K-K-Katie.

2. What the hell?? When was the last time we were in a position to have
a policy anyway? We have no power to create one.

See boys, the problem with one party rule is that when you fuck up, you can only credibly blame yourself.

4. The Florida that I lived in....
many years ago had a very large Jewish population. is Harris planning on representing only the Christians in the state should she, by some bizarre twist of fate, get elected?

6. Abortions and Gay Marriage
Those ARE the only two things God really cares about, don't you know? After all, Jesus spent His ENTIRE three years of ministry on this earth railing about abortions and homosexuality. In fact, He made it quite clear that unless you are unequivocally opposed to both of these blights upon society, you most definitely will NOT make it to heaven. Salvation is utterly dependant on your stance on these two issues.

Who cares about the post-born children? Who cares about oppressed people, the marginalized of society, or the poor? Jesus spent no time at all with those losers. Everybody knows that. Sheesh, the Dems are on a fast track to hell with their concern about poverty and justice. SOOOO unChristian of them!

Bravo, Ms. Harris.

:sarcasm: (In case you weren't entirely clear on that point.)

7. Um, somebody needs to inform Ms. Harris that the DEMS are not the ones
all claiming that the bible is the basis of our government and yapping about how they are all God-fearing Jeebus-jabbering Talibornagains.

Since when did the Democratic Party ever claim to be a sect of Christianity?????

Enquiring minds do SOOOOOO want to know.

8. Katherine Harris: "Dem's Policies Unchristian"
Oh?
  • So torturing people is Christian?

  • Bankrupting the nation is Christian?

  • Lying is Christian?

  • Cratering the economy & offshoring/inshoring jobs is Christian?

  • Getting us involved in a 2nd Vietnam-type war is Christian?

  • Giving seniors a "donut hole" in their drug coverage is Christian?

  • Making sure medical care stays out of the reach of non-wealthy Americans is Christian?

  • Protecting a pedophile is Christian?

Who knew? :shrug:

10. Harris is a hoot.



The rethugs house is burning down and she keeps throwing gasoline on the fire.


She's a raving lunatic but I'd almost want to kiss her for all the help she's given us.


I said almost.

12. So, Cruella, tell us about the hangar that got hit by a tree again
Or does your brand of Christianity say it's okay to lie as long as it keeps you from being politically and publicly embarrassed?

13. Someone needs to tell Spunk and Moxie to go home.
She's done. I'd say 'stick a fork in it,' but that would let out all the kool aid she has pumped into those babies. :evilgrin:

15. Uh, sorry to break it to you, you whacko Harris.
But Jesus never ever said one single WORD about those 'issues'. Not one word about abortion. Not one word about homosexuals. Not one word about evolution, or how God 'created the world'.

He did, however, say plenty about turning the other cheek, loving your neighbor, helping the poor, feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, praying in private, healing the sick, rebelling against crooked politicians, and TELLING THE TRUTH.

God, she is SUCH a loser.
