Yep.

The democrat party has quickly become the antithesis of Judeo-Christian values.

I am not quite sure how it's possible to practice these values while voting democrat.

Democrats sound so phony when they talk about anything related to religion.

For example, Howard Dean said that it’s not true that Democrats don’t have values. He said that Democrats have a lot in common with evangelicals. And he said that Democrat values are that they don’t think children should go to bed hungry at night.

Hillary Clinton has said that she’s always been a praying person. When asked the last time she went to church, she hemmed and hawed and said that doesn’t matter. Do you know of any person of faith who describes themselves as a “praying person” as Hillary did? She made that term up thinking it would fool somebody, apparently.

And they say “blessed are the peacemakers” and talk about how Jesus preached that we should help the poor . Which the big gov’t Democrats interpret to mean that we must create and expand social programs to “help the poor”.

But many people of faith volunteer and work through charities, and don’t expect or want the gov’t to be doing the work of “helping the poor”.

It is why they try to shift the argument to advancing socialism. But there is no “charity” in forced taxation to pay the dole out to the underclass.

And “universal healthcare” covers those who have money (they choose to spend on other things) as well as those without money.

They also have to attack the religious texts to suggest that same sex marriage IS morally acceptable.

They start with the agenda items and THEN seek to find justification for them instead of modelling policy on biblical teachings.

Ultimately if we “are” to fund our brothers’ health care because the bible instructs us to do so, then by the separation of Church and State, it CANNOT be government policy to do so. Not everyone follows that religion.
