The "holier-than-thou" crowd

Oh boy. The "holier-than-thou" crowd has really shown their true colors this time. If the real Christians in this country are paying any attention, it should be as obvious as it can possibly be that their tendency to automatically vote for the GOP must be carefully re-examined. For years now, people like Tom DeLay have pretended to cloak themselves in the flag while spouting ridiculous self-righteous things about God being on their side. Now their greed, their lies and their thievery is laid bare for all to see.

Of course, their hypocrisy getting more and more obvious lately. But the latest is the little "poker-gate" scandal that many think is the real reason behind the "Goss Toss." True or not, even die-hard Republican voters have to pull their heads out of the sand, and realize they've been hoodwinked.

Perhaps it's time to wake up, America. Perhaps it's time to dust off that well-worn old saying, "THROW THE BUMS OUT!" -- and actually follow through with it this time. And perhaps it is time to loudly, consistently and persistently demand true election reform. We must get the money out of politics if we are to have any hope of real change in this country. (And, by the way, we must keep the voting systems fair and verifiable.) Unless, of course, you're ok with the destruction of democracy in the good ol' USA.
