"Justice Sunday" coming to a church near you.
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist will stop at nothing to push his "nuclear option" on the American people. This Sunday, he is speaking via closed circuit television to thousands of church congregations organized by the radical right Family Research Council as a part of "Justice Sunday," a desperate and offensive campaign claiming that the 200 year-old Senate filibuster is being used to target people of faith.

This kind of crap makes me want to pull my hair out! Granted, I woke up in a tetchy mood this morning so anything is likely to get me started. I have no problem with political issues being discussed at church. Heck, I'm a UU. The conversation would drag if we couldn't do it. I know this turns my stomach because it is coming from a position stance I think is assinine and completely erroneous.

Aggghhh!!!!

1. IF....... IF I go to Sunday and they do this shit
I will make so much noise on my way out the door, the fundies will think the end of the world in upon them.
This has got to be illegal in so many ways.

3. Yay
I live in KY so I'm real thrilled that a bunch of fundies will see this and think all liberals want them persecuted when I just want to be left the hell alone.

Why do the Republicians have to get fundies upset just to get a few extra votes?

4. I watched some of this tonight on TV
At least as much as I could stomach, but basically they were saying that Christians must take over the government to save the country.
