[history]
Following media analysis of the elections, I suggest looking at fundamentalist, Pentecostal, and charismatic churches. I think you'll find their members voted en mass along a straight Republican ticket, providing as many as 25 million votes.
Why do the churches active in the religious right vote exclusively Republican? Because the religious right controls the Republican Party.

Change "religious right" in this letter to Jew or Muslim and no self-respecting newspaper in America would print it, due to the hate filled bigoted bile being spewed therein.
Of course, we all know that in places controlled by liberals, be it the media or Ithaca, the only acceptable bigotry is bigotry against Christians.
Ithaca is the City of Evil.

Clearly the writer has neither religious nor political savvy.

The article fails BIG TIME to report the "left wing" of the Democrat Party where teachers', steel workers' and labor unions' contributed in the millions against the Republican Party. Also, this article fails to mention newspapers, such as the New York Times, and the left-wing media (ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN) who spew the left wing rhetoric against any conservative ideology.

... To create the Kingdom of God on earth ...
Uh, right. Only it can't be done. Only their scriptures plainly
say it can't be done, and imply that when it is tried, it results in disaster. And those who do try they generally refer to as "antichrist."

More indoctrination from the left in The City of Evil.

Has it occurred to anyone else that lefties actually CRAVE tyranny, and not just at the subconscious level?
They must. Look how often they've wailed about the "inevitable" imposition of a fundamentalist theocracy, since last Tuesday.
I think they're secretly looking forward to the fulfillment of their fantasy.
"OH GOOD! Now we really CAN be oppressed!"

I think she's been channelling Karl Marx. Sounds to me like this very unhappy lady could use some of that opiate of the masses.

...and a great loss for anyone who values democracy and a pluralistic society.Since this phrase includes only liberal socialists ... who cares?
If you (generic you) don't believe in the values of a constitutionally mandated republic, nor in the idea that Americans should be, well...Americans, without all the hyphenating and third world "values," just why are you here?
Frankly, only those incapable of thought would even want the tyranny of a pluralistic democracy. Such screeds as this one are only penned by those who cannot think beyond tomorrow morning. Pitiful.

Why do the churches active in the religious right vote exclusively Republican?Has this writer ever heard of the "Religious Left?"
Ah, could it be because the Dems exclusively promote Godless, selfish, humanistic values...
Why do dems keep trying to steal the American people's money and dump it down sink holes!

Two Speeches by Joan Bokaer:
Fundamentalism and the New Right (1986)
& Perspectives on the Arms Race (1985)
Joan Bokaer is with the Center for Religion, Ethics and Social Policy at Cornell University. These two very informative, meticulously researched speeches have been widely circulated on audiotape because Ms.Bokaer is a master at tying together the underlying threads of America's foreign and domestic policy. Although these two speeches appear to have different topics, Ms. Bokaer points out that the arms race and the upsurge in fundamentalist cults are, in fact, intimately related. $2.00
Barf.

Things a liberal believes:
1. If you're a member of a fundamentalist, Pentecostal or charismatic church, you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
2. The "religious right" should be outlawed. Only the "religious left" should be allowed to exist.
3. If you are a candidate for the House or Senate or presently hold office you are disqualified if you've ever been even remotely associated with the "religious right". You DEFINITELY cannot be considered for a leadership position.
4. You are disqualified from having any influence in society if you have a "religious right" perspective
5. The religious right is intolerant and would impose intolerance if they ever ran things. They aren't diverse like those paragons of tolerence - i.e. academia, the demoncrat party, or the editorial board of the NY Times.

I am sorry, which part of "We hold these truths to be Self Evident, that all men are created Equal, and Endowed BY THEIR CREATOR..." Does this imbecile, not understand ?
