Remind Me Again….
The following comment was posted on the DailyKos blog in response to a post about the Terri Schaivo case. I found it to be an excellent summary of circus-like attitude that has developed around this whole situation.

Religion is a frequent topic on this blog, and should not be confused with Christianity.
Ralph Reed And James Dobson Helping Gambling Interests
Without a doubt, Tom Delay is most likely one of the most corrupt politicians to ever walk the halls of the Capital. I?d been wondering why the Republicans had been going out of their way to protect him, but now the light is dawning.

I’ve written before about how I cannot believe that, in America, we are even having a discussion about the nuances of the legal issues surrounding torture. I am sickened and saddened that America’s values now allow this sort of thing.

As a person claiming to be a leader in the Christian faith, your statement was not, by any explanation, acceptable.
