Dean said that "one of the misconceptions about the Democratic Party is that we're godless and that we don't have any values."
The Vermont liberal is trying to change that.
Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean told CBN News that his party has a lot in common with the evangelical community.
Dean wants evangelicals and other conservative Christians to know that Democrats have something to offer them.
"The truth is, we have an enormous amount in common with the Christian community, and particularly with the evangelical Christian community, Dean said.
But the Democrats record on hot political issues such as abortion, gay marriage, and separation of church and state don't match up with that of evangelicals...

He is absolutely right!
We breath, drive cars, have babies, cut our hair, speak English, like french fries, want more money, drive faster than we should, blah - blah - blah!
HELLO!
It's the differences that make us unique!

"Republicans and homosexuals have a lot in common".
True again; but it's STILL the differences!!!
Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.
Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."
Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.
Psa. 12:8 8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.
Isaiah 3:9
The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.
More?
Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.
But there IS hope!!!
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape.....

Nice try, Howard.
Christian Values
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

""The truth is, we have an enormous amount in common with the Christian community, and particularly with the evangelical Christian community, Dean said." That is a tacit admission that the democrat party is outside of Christianty. They've moved past saying democrats are Christians or many democrats are Christians, but hey... "we've still got something in common with you guys!"

One big difference. Evangelicals believe in a Supreme Being. Democrats do, too - Bill Clinton.

Ummmmmmm, no Howie. One of the obvious and clear stances of the Demon Party - shown by actions over the years - is that it composted of a bunch of God-hating immoral heathens who have even lower values than a typical Muzzie homicide bomber.

From today's
Daily Political Limerick The latest gaffe from Howard Dean
about gays puts him squarely between
the Christians, who say
"You can't marry, you're gay!"
and the folks who say "God save the QUEEN!"

The Clinton Ten Commandments:
1. Thou shalt have no Gods before Hillary.
2. Thou shalt not make for yourself an idol in the form of an elephant. You shall not campaign for it or vote for it. For I am a jealous God, punishing the sins of white males to the third and fourth generation of those I hate.
3. Do not take Hillary's name in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath Day, especially while campaigning.
5. Dishonor your father and your mother, the capitalist pigs.
6. Do not kill. Consider having your underlings do it.
7. THOU SHALT COMMIT ADULTERY.
8. Thou shalt not steal except for Whitewater, Cattle Futures, and White House silverware.
9. Thou shalt give false testimony against thy accusers.
10. THOU SHALT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S WIFE, ESPECIALLY HER ASS.
...and two special Clinton bonuses:
11. IT DEPENDS ON WHAT THE MEANING OF THE WORD 'IS' IS.
12. (From John 8:11) "Neither then do I condemn you. Go, and Sin Some More."
Cheers!

It's not that us evangelicals don't think that the Dhimms don't have 'values'. We know that they do. It's just that their values are not ours. In fact, we tend to think of them as Satan's values.

I would like to talk to those
two Democrats that have a lot in common with Evangelicals.
They are in the wrong party.

Dean said that "one of the misconceptions about the Democratic Party is that we're godless and that we don't have any values." The DUms have values...they value the right to slaughter the unborn.
And they are not godless...there god is the god of this world, Satan, and his chief priestess is Hitlery.
They just need to remember that our God, Jehovah, is bigger than their god.
