Democrats Mining the Religious "Field" for Votes


 The poll that shows more Democrats believe in UFO’s than God is one of my favorites. Coupled with the observation that one sees Democrat politicians in church mostly during campaigns, and mostly Black churches at that, is a telling tale.

Percolating in the Leftist media is the idea that part of the reason for the massive loss this past election is the Dems didn’t reach out to faith groups. (Still denying the truth that citizens don’t want the government raising taxes [taking their earnings away] and telling them how to live their lives). They think that they didn’t “target” Faith groups as aggressively this election cycle as they did the last, and this was a major factor in the loss. Truly, they’re thinking this.

They point to polls showing progressive religious people stayed home and didn’t vote. Obama, who is religiously fluent and a committed Christian (truly, they think this) didn’t speak to the Faithful. That Obama is a committed Christian is an amazing observation. This is the guy that early in his administration traveled the Islamofacist countries of the Middle East praising Islam and dismissing Christianity, and even called the US a Muslim nation. On his current Jihad Jaunt in Asia he’s been praising Islam at every stop. He hasn’t said a word about the way Christians are being tortured and murdered in Iraq and significantly ignored the recent violence against Christians, by Muslims, in Indonesia. Good grief, he was right there, and this violence is very recent. Instead he called Islam, once again, a religion of peace and tolerance. Truly?

The Democrat Party has a group, the Eleison Group, a consulting firm, tasked with targeting Faith groups with a political end in mind. If a politician or political party needs a consulting group to create an image of being a religious, or caring about faith based issues, then it’s obviously insincere. True religious people speak of such things from the heart. They don’t need consultants.

The internal discussion of this issue is now about how the Democrats need to increase the funding and staffing of faith based political action organizations, so the Republicans don’t have that “field” to themselves.  Religion as a political field to be mined for votes.

When Republican and Conservative politicians make statements about their faith, they are mercilessly attacked by the Left and Democrat politicians for expressing such a thing. Just ask George Bush and Sarah Palin. Democrats are constantly whining about the separation of church and state (Christine O’Donnell was right, it’s not in the Constitution) and wanting to tax churches (which would destroy most of them).

Democrats, Liberals, Statists continue with their dishonesty in this, as they do with most things. Bash Christians in between elections and go to church during elections. Call Obama a “committed” Christian when all he’s done is be dismissive of Christianity, and having consulting groups advise how to veil their anti-Christian bigotry to trick people into voting for them.

They worship the State, and those damn Christians keep getting in the way with all those biblical values and are keeping everybody from worshipping the State too.
