At a morning sermon Sunday in Northern Virginia, Republican

Don't you think they are all false religions?


Indeed, but I'm not running for public office. If I were, I would keep
my personal religious beliefs to myself, because I don't believe
religion should be part of political decision-making. It's one thing
for
an office seeker to say, "I'm Buddhist (Christian, Jewish, Muslim, et
cetera)." It's quite another to say "I'm a Christian, and if you
aren't,
well, your religion is bull****, but mine isn't."

The wonderful thing about this country is you get to vote or not vote
for whomever you want. I imagine there may be some people who are
tired of having anti religious comments shoved down their throat.

Harry seems far more interested in the people he can't vote for than
the home grown crooks in Maryland.

Harry has become nothing more than a parrot of liberal political
propaganda, a role he delights in. Virtually everything he posts may
be found by a cursory read of daily, liberal news articles. Gets old
having his faithful adherence left wing talking points "shoved" down
your throat, day after day, week after week, year after year. It's a
religion to him.

He's been doing it since Al Gore lost to GWB. That's when rec.boats
started to go down the tubes. Harry (of course) blames it all on
ultra right wing "Republi-trash".

U.S. House impeached Clinton.

I don't expect politicians to be perfectly honest. If they were, they'd
never get elected. I do, however, expect them to not try to shovel their
religious beliefs down the throats of the populace.

Your low expectations are an indicator of the reason we have suck poor
quality Govt. officials,top to bottom.

How is a minor state official in a state that you don't live in
shoveling anything down YOUR throat?
You root this stuff out like a wild hog looking for tubers


Why? Because these hypocritical faith-healing religious bigots are like
cancers; they need to be sought out and excised from the commonweal to
prevent them from getting a foothold, spreading and causing damage.

It's bad enough Virginia has an ayatollah named Ken Cuccinelli running
for governor on the Republican ticket.

What the hell does that have to do with your side of the river?



"...hypocritical faith-healing religious bigots are like cancers..."

You know, they spread...like cancers. You get one religious bigot in
office and there will be others. Or they'll run for higher political
office, perhaps Congress. Then they'll be spreading their bigotry and
superstition on national legislation.

Now, I know there have been clergy of many faiths who have served in
Congress. I'm not talking about them, generally, but only the ones who
see as their mission the spreading of hatred. So, I had no objection to
the political life of John Danforth of Missouri, a minister, even though
I was on the opposite side of many of his political positions, such as
support for the least competent Associate Justice, Clarence Thomas.
Danforth isn't a religious bigot.

Chuckle. That's great imagery, very close to the mark. You can sort
of hear the snuffling around off in the distance.
