Romney's Folly
We couldn't help but notice Mitt Romney stating on Jay Leno's show three weeks ago that "Americans want a person of faith" to occupy the Presidency. This is code for "Vote for me because I'm the same religion as you". *nudge, nudge*. And by elimination he excludes anyone who doesn't which is a subtle way of undermining the Constitution when it says "No religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.”
What Romney is doing here is basically giving the finger to Article VI of the Constitution. Nice going. Yet still Christians cry foul whenever non-believers attempt to level the playing field. If you have any doubt about this please try to remember that there are still laws in seven states that prohibit anyone from holding high public office if they don't believe in God. And also remember that President Bush is a bona-fide Jesus guy. We've got so much Jesus in the Oval Office it's coming out of our ears. And what has it done for us? It's given us a war without end in Iraq, a trillion dollars in debt and our reputation is in tatters. And all because Bush doesn't listen to his father, he listens to his "higher Father". We've had enough "faith" in the White House to last a lifetime. Maybe it's time for rational thinking and a modern perspective?
And just for laughs, check out Tom Tomorrow's latest cartoon HERE. We think it's one of his best ever.
