9. Isn't it obvious they go to school for cliches? How can he avoid answering
a question by going to some catch phrase? Either he is the creepy lobbyist/corporatist that sells out the Christians blindly following them or he has another explanation for the crappy ethics these acts display, diverting the issue onto some Palinsque point makes him look even fishier.

10. They're masters at it.

And the 28%ers buy into it, hook, line, and sinker. Even though Ralph Reed fell from grace with many conservatives, he's back at it with his good buddy Tim Phillips. These clueless conservatives ARE like abused spouses, coming back for more.

3. Thanks, my Congressman Michael Arcuri left a
message today that he would call back at 1pm tomorrow to have a Health Care Insurance Reform meeting via the phone..I have to ask him if this is because of the mob of thugs out there in the Country.
