Isn’t it wonderful to see a tolerant group of people who believe in others right to free speech and all the freedoms including freedom of religion and the freedom to vote one’s passion even if it is based on one’s religious beliefs…. Isn’t it ironic that some people while pointing out the judgement of others become as ugly as the people they are pointing at….

Ya know, for a buncha people that were told to be IN the world but not OF the world, they’re sure taking a vested interest in things.

I don’t recall their saviour suggesting people get “saved” and then get involved in politics to change the world on his/her/its behalf.

They’re just supposed to be a “light” and let that thar Holy Ghost fellow do the rest.

So much for fundamental teaching.

Southern Baptists have added nothing of “value” to American society. Their divisive rhetoric only increases tension and creates problems. God most certainly has nothing to do with this truly disturbed bunch of people.

I would like to see on all sides of the political spectrum instead of get out the vote campaigns educate the votes campaigns. It sickens me to know that people that have not read either their state or federal constitutions are voting. Ignorant voters are bad for the Republic and it shows in governmental policies and not just the policies of the Bush administration either.

People should have to take a constitutional test in order to be able to vote.

What’s that smell in the air? Fear. Loss of Power! Goodbye to their tactics of terror against these great states of the US.

The only Value Vote they have ever delivered is the Value of HATE.

To ‘protect’ us against the ills of satan, they can start by looking in the mirror, then staying home on election day.

Religious Leaders and their kool-aid drinking masses HAD their chance.

They proved themselves corrupt.

Time for Change.

When will they start taxing these organizations? Organized religion clearly functions as a PAC, yet they remain exempt.
