Apologies

for the absence, but I am up to my eyeballs in work suddenly. I can go months without talking to another human, and now I'm buried. I guess it's good to be busy. I guess.

But I did want to bring this to your attention. The New York Post reports that Hill (of Bill & Hill infamy) said: The GOP would have booted Jesus. (Registration required to see the whole article - try www.bugmenot.com for a login that doesn't require you to give a blood sample.)

Now, I won't worry about the headline, which is Post standard. What I do think is worth noting is that Hillary Clinton, guiding light (to many) of the modern, liberal, democrat party, is invoking the name of Jesus? And accusing the Republicans of criminalizing Jesus and the Good Samaritan?

Let's analyze this, shall we? Her party stands for the normalization of Gay marriage, undermining 5,000 years of normative society and the Judeo-Christian tradition. Her party stands for the breaking down of the traditional family structure, and she herself argues that a village raises a child better than parents. While not officially, elements of her own party scorn and mock the practitioners of traditional organized religion.

And now she's citing Jesus? Jesus would somehow identify with her and the leftist, socialist, secularized Deomcrat party? Where did that all of a sudden come from? Oh, I know politicians will say anything, but she's really opened herself up to criticism here. I can live with questions being raised about a bill. There's room for disagreement on the immigration question, and I agree that she should bring up her reservations if the bill as written if it really bothers her.

But how about we drop all politically motivated references to the leading figure of a major religion? [ed. You'll have to forgive me if I choose not to identify Jesus as the Lord; I have some personal issues with that concept that have no impact on this particular post] Oh, I know I'm asking for the moon here, but let's think twice before we decide we have personal insight into the will of a deity, hmm?
