18. I agree with that--and that Office of Faith Based Initiatives should be turned into the
White House coffee mess, or something.

Only problem is, the churches are the new thugs in town--they cozy up to politicians, they offer up their congregations and all those swell votes, and for it, they want a little...consideration, capisce?

It's why I object to churches receiving federal funds for delivery of services to the homeless, etc. If they want to do that stuff, they need to raise the dough in other ways--not shake down politicians.
