Ok, this is actually a post on someone else’s blog, but it was good, so
I wanted to borrow it. The original was from Vox
Popoli, the Blog of World Net Daily
commentator Vox
Day.
At least he favors
legalizing drugs.
Rich Lowry writes: [Gen. Clark] accuses the Republican party
of a lack of true Christianity, saying that “there’s only one party
that lives that faith in America, and that’s our party, the Democratic
party.”Don’t most Democrats who aren’t nominal
once-a-year-won’t-kill-me Christians hate Christians who actually take
the tenets of the faith seriously, or at the very least wish that they
would stay out of politics altogether? Otherwise, what’s with all the
cracks about Bible thumpers, the virulent antipathy for Catholic and
evangelical judges, and the desire to eradicate all signs of Christmas
from public view.One wonders what in the seventh secret name of
Gehenna the general is smoking. Clark must have the notion that playing
Robin Hood with other people’s money is the same thing as charity – of
course, Jesus said to give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, not what belongs
toJoseph, Mary, Simon Peter and Paul. And he also said to suffer the
little children to go unto him, not to stick a fork in their brains
because “mommy” hasn’t finished her International Relations degree yet.Seriously, what does the Democratic Party stand for, sopratutto:
Higher taxes
Abortion
Entitlements
Affirmative action
Eradicating religion
Globalism
Gay rightsThe
only one that correlates with Christian teaching at all is – maybe-
entititlements, and that only because Jesus did say that the poor would
be with us always, and entitlements are one way to make sure of that.
Is it any wonder that the evangelicals all left that building? Of
course, if George Bush keeps it up, my Christian Libertarian party will
be the de facto third party.
