Some analysts say Bush is polling better since the release of The Passion of The Christ, a response to Bush's public espousal of his deeply-held Christianity.

A watershed event in the cultural wars is the blockbuster success of Mel Gibson's film. It is lifting the spirits of American voters.

Christians are taking back a culture that has been besieged by Secular Wrecking Crews.

Secular Slobs have strewn the culture with the garbage of moral relativity, situational ethics and relgious hatred.

Up to now, Christians were expected to clean up the secular messes.

That is about to change. The top item on the conservative agenda is getting the Secular Slobolas to mop up.

The biggest mistake Kerry's made to date is to align himaelf with secularists.

Kerry said he is unsure about The Passion, the film hundreds of thousands of Christians are flocking to see. "I don't know," Kerry said when asked if he would see the Mel Gibson film. "I am concerned," Kerry told reporters. "I think we have to be careful," he said echoing secularist critics complaints about Mel Gibson's depiction of Christ's Passion (Reuters, "Democrat Kerry Urges Caution On 'Passion,' 26 February 2004, by Patricia Wilson).

As a presidential candidate, Kerry's comments are fraught with meaning for the future of America. Kerry worships abortion, the lawless homosexual agenda, and the stripping away of every Christian symbol in America.

Kerry kowtows to a secularist minority, the very same groups that have trashed American culture. Kerry is appealing to a ragtag cadre of naysayers in the Hollywood-media axis who are desperately trying to demonize Mel Gibson and the film.

Kerry is appealing to secular Hollywood's fears that they will lose their chokehold on American culture. Secular liberals have vastly profited from the anti-Christian culture and want to keep Christians subdued and their beliefs marginalized.

Kerry's ill-conceived remarks demonstrate that he will strengthen secularist power over Christian America.

Believe me, Bush never wanted to have to deal with these divisive cultural issues, but his hand was forced by an activist judiciary and lawless local government who are trying to impose same sex marriage on the country without regard to the democratic process.

This is actually an excellent strategy. The Dems don't reflect American values; we know that. Now create a public forum where they are forced to either betray their socialist masters or the people who will re-elect them. And let the record speak for itself.

It's a no-lose for the Republicans.

When I saw this headline I started talking to the PC. When are guns a "cultural" issue? Guess they forgot it's not a cultural issue but a right under the 2nd Amendment. Darn that fussy little document.

Drudge has the following story posted this morning from TIME magazine. Here's a quote:

Just listen to a Vatican official, who is an American: "People in Rome are becoming more and more aware that there's a problem with John Kerry, and a potential scandal with his apparent profession of his Catholic faith and some of his stances, particularly abortion."

As a Catholic, I can tell you the Dems long since lost their grip on the Catholic vote, and they don't care. This cannot be minimalized when you consider also the percentage of Hispanic Catholics. This is a story the mainstream press ignores - they just don't get it.

Good news ping: "From gays to guns to the rights of the unborn, Republicans are staging a series of cultural clashes in Congress in the run-up to the fall elections, seeking political advantage as much as legislative accomplishment."
