I did a quick Wiki search and it seems that there are around 38,000 different denominations of Christianity.

And they want the Bible taught in schools.

Using "politics" and "Jesus" in the same sentence would be offensive to most Christians I know.

How would I know? The OP doesn't mention it. Where is it supposed to be? Who had it last?

I like the name the Neocons came up with for us: "RINO" (Republican in name only). It saves us having to come up with one ourselves, and lets us keep being the "Republicans". The statement it makes is "They aren't with us."

All I can say is "You better believe we're not, Thank God for that, and God Bless America!"

Really, so what about Eric Cantor? http://bestsmileys.com/thinking/5.gif (broken link)

Think he's the only Jewish Republican left in Congress!

I personally am opposed to the two party system currently in place.

I would have no problem with a Christian Party, a Wiccan party, a Agnostic Party =

I would have NO PROBLEM whatsoever with more parties so that everyones viewpoints and perspectives can be heard - and if enough agree with that perspective, that the individual gets elected.

Its time, IMO, for the Republicans and Democrats to lose their strangle hold on the United States.

Then the rest of us could actually get to work at providing a true alternative to the Democrats.

And, yes, I am a Republican but I have serious doubts about my party due to the evalengicals.
So that leaves you with the likes of Limbaugh, Hannity, and Coulter!
