Those Religious Nut Politicians

Since George Bush was elected president his religious views have been ridiculed and scorned, especially by those on the left and in the media (but I repeat myself). When George Bush says that he seeks the guidance of the Almighty people act as if he has three heads. When he talks about prayer the left goes nuts and there are those who believe that religion has no place in government. The religious contingent of voters has been referred to as the religious right as if there is something inherently wrong with being a religious person because, after all, they are on the right.

Of course, when the Democrats are out trying to win an election they find religion. Part of the Democratic platform is to speak more of religion and to court the religious vote. The left does not care about the people it just wants their votes. Look at how many Democrats speak from churches when they are running for office. After they are elected they seem to run from the church and anything religious. One might say that religion should not play in the political arena and that is certainly a view to which people are entitled. What I find interesting is the hypocrisy.

Those who think that George Bush is pushing Christianity across the Middle East as part of his personal crusade get their panties in a wad whenever they talk about the president and his agenda. But along comes B. Hussein Obama with his talk about religion and building a Kingdom on Earth and he is hailed as the second coming of John the Baptist.

Obama was in a church this weekend where he said:

“Sometimes this is a difficult road being in politics,” Obama said. “Sometimes you can become fearful, sometimes you can become vain, sometimes you can seek power just for power’s sake instead of because you want to do service to God. I just want all of you to pray that I can be an instrument of God in the same way that Pastor Ron and all of you are instruments of God.” CNN

If George Bush siad that he was an instrument of God the left in America would be melting down in a pile of babbling goo. They would be very upset that this president invoked God and discussed his religion in the decisions he has made. How dare him be an instrument of God? In fact, there are those who believe that Bush thinks he is an instrument of God and acts accordingly, much to the distaste of the Godless liberals.

Let Obama show up and speak in such a fashion and all the sudden he is revered as a religious man who will do God’s work in America. I will admit though, when he said the part about being vain and seeking power for power’s sake, I though of Hillary…

Religion plays a large part in American politics and there is no escaping that regardless of what the ACLU and the atheists want. However, Democrats only seem to care about religion when it is time to be elected. Any other time their moral compass points to Hell.

The problem, of course, is that some people fall for this. The Jews vote overwhelmingly Democrat though the Democrats screw the Jews and abandon Israel every time they get the chance. The black community, which is strongly conservative in its religious views, votes Democratic in every election despite the fact that 40 years of Democratic policies and programs has put them in a worse position.

I only hope the religious right can see through this mindless prattle and realize that no matter how much the Democrats claim to be people of God, when the votes are counted and they have won, they go right back to their Godless ways.

Forty million murdered babies are evidence of that.
