One problem with their belief is that it implies God sat out the 1992 and '96 elections and then intervened decisively in 2000. In normal debate, that would raise a question of why. And where was God when Pat Robertson needed him? They probably have an answer for such questions. But if they remember that Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and others have been warning for years that God will punish us for such sins as Bill Clinton, they must have to face up to this question:



Is President Bush our long-promised punishment? (http://www.palmbeachpost.com/opinion/content/auto/epaper/editions/monday/opinion_f3ea774a37682102008f.html)

Where the hell do you get off calling one man a punishment from God? What makes you any better than him? A difference of opinion on policy? At least he doesn't go hurling around ridiculous attacks on character. Especially ones with the religious weight that this one carries with millions of people.

I think the article is a bit tongue-in-cheek, gopman.

no one has a sense of humor any more.
Happy Veterans Day!

I don't take kindly to humor that walks all over religious beliefs and attacks individual character with no basis in reality.

I'm always up for a good laugh. I can appreciate wit and sarcasm, but certain things cross the line. Honestly, I'm one of the funniest guys I know.

BTW,
I'm a Clint fan too.:D
Have you ever seen anything better come from the palmbeachpost? Dont take everything seriously. Sometimes read people like Art Buchwald and unwind yourself.

I see it as sarcasm. A bit of Dave Berry with an edge.

Thanks MM.

Where would we be without our sense of humor? (http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename=article&node=&contentId=A38425-2003Oct29&notFound=true)
