Hi Joel,

I posted this same comment on my blog, but I thought I'd post it on yours, too...

What gets me about the religious left is this...They whine about the "political church", and they act as if they are somehow above politics. However, it's not politics they find so distasteful, but conservative politics. They don't mind their own kind of politics being brought into the church. They are just as guilty of "baptizing" their political views as being "what God really wants" as some right-wingers are.
