Faith, Politics, and Mixing the Two

Local roundup

Bill shares his feelings on the relatively common Say one Hail Mary bumper stickers.

Maryanne notes government excess:

but Rangel was the most hilarious simply because he doesn’t even bother trying to make his choice sound reasonable.  He just wants his constituents to think their Congressman “is somebody.”

JanetLee examines the gas tax holiday:

 Total savings over the entire summer – about thirty bucks.

Total loss of revenue for federal highway construction = 10 BILLION dollars.

Let’s just forget about the collapsing bridges and other crumbling interstate roads, we can fix that later. Just like we’ll fix the dependence upon foreign oil problem later.

MojoSteve on Reverend Wright:

You called these people in power privileged, Reverend Wright, and privileged they are to be able to serve this great nation in the military or by having their family members serve, as well as serving in Congress. Your aggrandizement and zeal for shameless self-promotion sullies your own honorable service by trying to discredit and downplay the service and sacrifice of a Congress you disagree with. I’m starting to think that you’re hiding behind the guise of a clergyman, thinking that you can spew venom and vitriol and then hide behind your Bible, while you seek to further your own private agenda. Why else would you say on television that you’re open to being Vice President?
