Lefty Blogs

In the past week, I had the "pleasure" of going to a few liberal sites to read some of the postings of their readers.

Here at the Daily Kos , is an interesting post by someone titled "Why I hate America".

On Shakespearessister, a blog by a John Edwards campaign staffer, is a nice post where she refers to conservative Christians as "christofacists", but it's offset by all the f-bombs written all over it.

And here is one at pandagon.net Where the writer asks an interesting question about the immaculate conception "What if Mary had taken Plan B after the Lord filled her with his hot, white, sticky Holy Spirit?"

I keep hearing about how the Democratic party is the party of inclusion, especially for people of faith. Yeah, I get that when these are the thoughts of staffers and influential opinion makers for the party.

For the life of me, I still do not understand why Catholics and Jews are still a vital voting block of the DNC when this kind of mockery of faith is rampant throughout the party.

At least there are some intellectuals out there who are willing to acknowledge that people of faith care about society. Here's an interesting piece written by Roy Hattersly the money quote is in the byline "We atheists have to accept that most believers are better human beings".

Maybe if the DNC leadership were willing to acknowledge the premise of his piece, they might be able to attract more religious conservatives.
