Give me that "old time religion" . . . Republicans
By Kaye Grogan

Recent polls are indicating that the Republican Party is going to have to get back to "give me that old time religion" platform — or suffer the consequences when the next election time rolls around. Right now support from Christians for the "Grand Old Party" is declining lower than the last limbo stick position.

But since most of the Democrats consider Christians as right-wing co-conspirators and fanatics, it would be unwise and hopeless for them to try and woo the followers of Christ into their liberal camps. Most Christians won't compromise and vote for who they view as the lesser of two evils just for the sake of voting — so don't hold your breath Dems.

While Christians (usually) have a forgiving nature, the Republicans have stood back refusing to effectively protect freedom of religion from the anti-God groups. Oh, once in awhile they may act like someone doused them with a bucket of ice water to jolt them back to reality long enough so they can appear productive, but once they are safely back in office they follow the godless leaders.

DNC Chairman Howard Dean doesn't even bother to conceal his disdain for the Christian community. He views them as being diabolical, demonic, and overly fanatical. Dean along with several other liberal Democrats have taken over the party, and managed to crash it.

Not only is this country in deep trouble spiritually, it is suffering greatly in need of "godly" men and women with leadership abilities and qualities to look after the best interest of the United States of America. I thought President Bush was a godly man, but right now his mind has went south of the border.

The Republicans are caught up in a very dangerous game of doing irreparable dealings behind the backs of Americans. Out in Texas Governor Rick Perry has been quietly endorsing building superhighways costing billions of dollars at the expense of taxpayers.

According to a report from WorldNet Daily, the roads will intertwine with the so-called NAFTA Superhighway. And this little project has a lot of the folks up in the air, because the United States Supreme Court paved the way for "eminent domain" to seize the property of homeowners — in the way of what some are viewing as prosperity with Mexico and Canada.

And since we were left holding a $750 billion dollar trade deficit in 2005 — of course it makes a lot of sense to continue to keep the deficit amount escalating — since most of the ones who are responsible for this incredible sell-out will be long gone with the young people left behind holding the bag.

I guess the new way to be prosperous is to pave the way to the poorhouse using expensive equipment on the superhighway to hell.

Next, since churches don't pay taxes it wouldn't surprise me in the least to hear about church worshipers being bulldozed down with church buildings to make way for Pedro's governmental subsidized Mexican Taco Bell.

Not only have most Republicans left their Christian base — they have completely left reality. At this point, I don't believe even a revival could revive the Republican Party.

It's apparent there needs to be a big revival in America, and a big shake-up in Congress. It's time to start a new viable third party — while there is still a little hope for America. Because there is not one immediate representative I can think of who has anything to offer the American people, but the same old song and dance routine.

And it's way past time. . . they all sat this one out.

And that's just my opinion!
