Some politicians regularly campaign on the notion that they are members of ‘God’s Own Party’, but campaigning to cut billions in food and medical assistance for the poor from the federal budget while increasing tax cuts for the rich illustrates that, when it’s time for some legislators to make the hard choices, Christ's will takes a back-seat to the will of the wealthy.
It's hard to imagine that choosing tax cuts for the wealthy over feeding the poor will strike a positive chord with the Almighty on Judgment Day, but you have to give some lawmakers credit for having the guts to draw a line in the sand and stand by a conviction, their souls be damned. Greater love no legislator has than to give up his soul for that of a constituent’s pocketbook…or something like that!
