lol!
Here is more from the KOOK...
Too many evangelical Christians are like affluent, upper-middle class suburban dwellers more than they are like those who love and cherish and follow the Bible.
Now, they think they are. They believe they are. They love the Bible. But they're not paying attention to whole vast areas of biblical teaching that call for economic justice. You can't be evangelical and associate yourself with Jesus and what he says about the poor and just have no other domestic concerns than tax cuts for wealthy people.
I mean, these are good people. But this is not biblical thinking. What's changing -- and it is changing all over the country -- is a new generation of evangelicals are discovering the poor in the Bible.

I guess he doesn't consider that most of us seem to be able to help the poor without "help" from the government. I don't trust the government in deciding who THEY THINK is poor.
Boy oh boy, I've seen Wallis on tv before and he was always a decent, if misguided person, something's put a bug up his wazoo. He was rude, interupting, agressive, accusatory.
He's drunk the kool-aid. Somewhere in the focus groups used by the Democrats, they came up with the idea that saying 'it's not a monologue anymore, it's a dialogue' was a winner. Oh yeah, Americans have been starved of the chance of hearing the liberal point of view. We have heard anything from liberals, those evil rightwingers control the media.
This is nutsville, folks.
