It is very bad to questions a candidate’s religious conviction. Very bad. Unless you disagree with them. Then go getcher hatchet, Kathleen!

I think it's kind of cute when liberals try to use the Bible to trap Christians.

In their attempts to saddle Christian political leaders with the charge of hypocrisy, they reveal not only their abject ignorance as to the Bible's contents, but reveal their own hypocrisy, as well.

Any inference by a Christian President that he intends to lead and push for legislation based only on a literal interpretation of the Bible would bring howling protests by the likes of Kathleen.

And yet...she and her ilk think it clever to attempt to leverage just one aspect of God's Word and Law in order to advance their own particular political agenda.

Here's an idea....
Let's offer the left a "deal". If they are going to glom on to God's Word for the sake of "the poor and the sick", then why not embrace God's Law in its entirety for the whole nation.
Shall we force the entire nation, under the penalty of law, to obey and adhere to the teachings in the Bible?
Would she go for that?

If not..then STFU!

Are you kidding? They use the H,P&R method for their bible study. Hunt, Pick and Reject anything that is contrary to their belief system.

Are ya gonna be for Grabowsky? Are ya gonna be True Blue?
Grabowsky's gonna stop Sharia, roll back government spending, cut taxes and build a border fence. He's gonna be pro business and jobs and tell the Liberals to go to hell...

So are ya gonna be for Grabowsky, after all he's done for YOU!

Please note that in that ditty to a perfect candidate, the religion of the Candidate is meaningless. An Evangelical who rolls over to Terrorism is worthless.
