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”.

I suppose telling voters you are a "praying person" is like saying you are a "bacon person".

I do suppose that during the Primaries Hillary was PRAYING like never before ("Let me win! Oh PLEASE let me win...")
