Dems Work At 'Finding Religion'

Topics: Political News and commentaries

You've just got to read Joseph Lindsley on the Dems' almost laughable attempts to talk the talk of "God-fearing folk":

IMAGINE a Republican congressman defending traditional marriage by saying, "I am inspired in my public service by St. Paul's admonition against sodomy in his first letter to the Corinthians." Surely, many liberals would raise the alarm of impending theocracy. But House minority leader Nancy Pelosi--a self-described "conservative Catholic" despite her status as a pro-gay marriage, pro-choice San Francisco lefty who as a young girl thought she would rather be a priest than a nun--has lately been encouraging members of her party to couch their political arguments in Biblical terms so as to appeal to the God-fearing.

Yes, there's more...

While I'm pleased that Dems of the ilk of Nancy Pelosi are trying to reach out to people of faith, however, regardless of how she and her fellow Dems try to talk the talk, a duck, nonetheless, is still a duck, and this new dog still won't hunt!

On matters of faith the Dems still just don't get it.
