Is Push-Polling a Mortal Sin

Like the Republican Party would recognize a mortal sin if it came up and bit them in the behind. For a party that claims to be close to god they sure have a lot of problems with following the word. What ever happened to “do on to others as you would have them do to you” or “turn the other cheek” for that matter?

Are they trying to say that they want us to attack them on their moral values at this point in time? The nerve! after all their party does not exactly have a shining record as of late.

· Sex scandal after sex scandal
· Never ending war
· Outrages gas prices while oil companies make record profits
· Middle class families losing their homes and their dreams of a better life while large investment banks are being bailed out.
· Inferior or deficient record on the environment
· Double digit inflation in health care cost
· 47 million people without health care of any kind
· Can’t tell the truth if their lives depended on it (unfortunately it our children’s lives that depended on it.)
· Veterans living homeless on the streets with poor health care
· The rich getting richer off loans made to low income and middle class families
· Retirement for older individuals in danger of going bankrupt
· Record increases in the price of basic food supplies in our country (not exactly welcome news for people on fixed incomes.)
· People in other countries going hungry because speculators want to increase their profits
· No spending bill that they don’t like

Dear God Almighty! The word conservative has taken on a whole new meaning under the Bush Administration and I can’t say that anyone wants or can even survive another four more years of that in the White House (John McCain) or for that matter in the U.S. Senate (Steve Pearce). The Republican Party should be ashamed of what their party has done to this country. We deserve better! And God knows it.
