Glad you're here! I love this quote. And it just happens to be true. It's really difficult for me to try to wrap my brain around the idea of a whole party dedicated to the proposition that the poor and needy in this country can't be helped, won't be helped, and worst of all - shouldn't be helped. Honestly, W.T. F.??????? And we call ourselves a "Christian" nation???? I know the folks on that team certainly do. They walk around wearing the Bible like a kid wearing a big cardboard box painted up to look like a milk carton and held up by shoulder straps, for the school's Halloween parade. What the hell?????

Wonder what "Jesus" that is - that they're worshipping these days?
