Liberals and God -- Not So Much

In her column this week, Ann Coulter talks about the left's air-kiss relationship with God.  She hits the nail right on the head -- with a .45 caliber bullet fired from 100 yards.

Meanwhile, on the House floor last week, Democratic Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee compared Palin to Pontius Pilate — and Obama to Jesus. Cohen said: "Barack Obama was a community organizer like Jesus, who our minister prayed about. Pontius Pilate was a governor." Yes, who can forget the Biblical account of how Jesus got the homeless Samaritan to register as a Democrat in exchange for a carton of smokes!

Rep. Cohen would be well-advised to stay away from New Testament references.

As anyone familiar with the New Testament can confirm for him, there are no parables about Jesus passing out cigarettes for votes, lobbying the Romans for less restrictive workfare rules or filing for grants under the Community Redevelopment Act. No time for soul-saving now! First, we lobby Fannie Mae to ease off those lending standards and demand a windfall profits tax on the money-changers in the temple.

That Cohen fellah is a hopeless moron. His constituents are embarrassed, I' sure.150 years ago he would have been censured...

Conservatives believe in Angels. Liberals believe in angles.

I was shocked when son came home from school yesterday and said someone in one of his classes (don't remember if it was AP Government or Language Arts) was reading Ann's If Democrats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans.

After the shock wore off it was relief that there's at least one other conservative in his class. :)
