"...a fool born every minute"
From Susan over at Random Thoughts: Unfair and Unbalanced
I couldn't agree more. And I say that both as a voter and as a Christian. What part of "as you do unto the least of these, so you do unto me" do these churchgoers not understand? If Bush claimed to be the Jolly Green Giant, would they believe that too?

This article has to be read to be believed. And after you read it, you still won't believe it. The election in the heartland will be based on something like this: It doesn't matter if you are unemployed and facing homelessness, it doesn't matter if you are facing foreclosure on your home, it doesn't matter that if you get another job it doesn't pay a living wage, it doesn't matter if you've lost your health insurance, it doesn't matter if your kids face the prospect of fighting an illegitimate war. Nothing matters. All that counts is if some phony whose administration has worsened you and your family's lives invokes "Jesus is my personal savior," he gets your vote. All I say to that is you fools prove P.T. Barnum right.
