“It is not a district that any Republican could win,” said Balmer. “Ronald Reagan could not win the 6th CD under this Democrat map. Jesus Christ could not win the 6th CD under this Democrat map.” (JCB emphasis)
Makin’ a few assumptions about the political leanings of our Lord and Savior, aren’t you Davey? After all, didn’t Jesus heal the sick and feed the poor?
If there’s anything Republicans have taught me over the years, it’s that there’s more than one Jesus. There’s the Jesus I learned about in Sunday School who fed the poor, and today’s GOP Jesus who wants the poor to learn “personal responsibility.”
Also, I’m pretty sure my Jesus wouldn’t want to be elected to Tom Tancredo’s seat.

just what it is for Democrats now. Impossible. Sounds fair.
with the current boundaries because of his hard-line stances on free healthcare and peace for all.
it’s hard to imagine voters would go for a Jewish carpenter who spent most of his professional life as a community organizer. I just don’t see it happening.
I’m so out of the loop these days.
So I figure he’s running for something.
so they are going with a Jewish Zombie who hung out with tax collectors and prostitutes.
I’ve been voting D pretty consistently the past several cycles- and I’d vote for JC.
And Reagan? That RINO raised taxes 11 times.
No, Mr Blamer’s problem is he’s not in the same league.

without personal culpability, what need is there for salvation ?
That’s where Jesus gets his real power: He can forgive ANYTHING.

each teasing that they can tell me what the Catholic Church gets wrong about Jesus.
very helpful.

Back in the day we used to get all those teachings for free — in Sunday school . . . on second thought, I guess it did cost me a dime of my allowance each week.
for taking the opportunity of this tragedy to compare the victims to Hitler Youth:

And all those talking heads who immediately jumped to the conclusion that Muslims were involved on the basis a of absolutely nothing. Nada. Zilch.
Stephen Colbert featured an all purpose headline for future use on his show. if I remember correctly it went like this:
Something Bad Happened: Muslims involved.
Daily Show won’t embed. So for some reason I’m linking the HuffPo article on it.
“Glenn Beck plays “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon,” except there’s just one degree and Kevin Bacon is Hitler.”

Now Billo is whining about the Norwegian shooter being called Christian. Objects to this maniac being identifed with what Christianity stands for. Kind of ironic, huh?
and Tim McVeigh. Both Christian.
Im no religious scholar but I remember reading once that he could perform miracles. Someone who has the ability to turn water into wine can probably persuade a couple independents to vote for him.
Who Would Jesus Shoot?
I’d be onboard with any birthers calling to see JC’s documentation. That would be rich!
Where was Jesus born?
sign off on the birth certificate?
You need a first and last name for the parents’ names on a birth certificate, right? What would Jesus’ birth certificate say? Just “God”? Is that a first or last name?
2000 years ago that Jesus Christ didn’t seek public office. That still applies today.
Even if He did, I seriously doubt He could win anywhere. Sooner or later, during the course of the campaign, some significant segment of the electorate would find the Lord to be too rigid in His stands. Very few people really want to be held accountable for their own actions.
That’s pretty much a career killer these days…or not.
He pissed off the bankers.
a politician’s career?
You’ll get crucified for that.
Was the reason that still applies today the fact that Jews weren’t part of the Roman ruling class, or that there wasn’t a democracy in place to elect public officials?
Unwavering, rigid positions seem to be the requirement for Republican candidates these days. But you are right, they like having the perception of uncompromising ideals yet don’t want to be held accountable for their own actions.
