WASHINGTON - The House passed a mammoth defense spending bill Monday evening, but only after a Republican congressman was forced to take back remarks accusing Democrats of "demonizing Christians." The rhetorical warfare came as the House considered a proposal by Rep. David Obey, D-Wis., to put Congress on record against "coercive and abusive religious proselytizing" at the U.S. Air Force Academy.

Why did we have to take back this statement?

But the Democrats aren't forced to take back their statements?

Are we in the majority or did I miss something?

Our republican "leadership" has absolutely no spine at all, I believe they are not abusing power, because they are still in a minority mind set. I am really concerned for this country I am no longer sure of Americas future. As most alcoholics or drug addicts will tell you they have to hit rock bottom before they get help, I think rock bottom is on the way. GOD HELP US ALL.
