Of course, they'll say it's "satire", just good fun, in fact, hey, we're making fun of OURSELVES, don'tcha see?

I'd love to hear what the Baptist Rev. Hilson, who was just on Hannity and Colmes, would say about this. He was plenty incensed at the Dean campaign, who wanted to visit his church, then when they got the photo op of Mr. and Mrs. sitting among the parishioners, suddenly were "rushed" and too pressed for time to stay for services. Hilson said they were "pimping" his church for their own purposes, and he was right.

I saw that. He ripped Lieberman too for the same thing. he also explained that there was another Baptist church in town that was twice as big as his but the politicians choose his because it is black.

I wish more black preachers would speak out on this hypocracy. It's almost exclusively a democrat thing and it just makes me sick every time I see it.<p?

Aside from the length of the stay, please explain how this is any different from behaviors of Clinton, Gore or any number of other Dems seeking public office in an election that could be determined by minority turnout.
