Don't know when its kosher to put the whole article in the post. I found it interesting that the Wash Times is reporting on this ... not too surprising the the NY Slimes "broke" the story. My feelings -- I do not think this is something that the national party should do. This could have come from some kind of Christian-based 527 and had the same impact on voters without turning into a Slimes "scandalous" diversion.

Haven't the libs already created an environment that if you have a Bible on your desk at work someone can claim religious harassment? I think I remember reading an article where this had happened.
To: dubyain04jebin08and12
I am not sure it is too far-fetched. Our good friends up north have already started jail time for people reading anti-gay quotes from the Bible.
To: dubyain04jebin08and12
Bibles are already banned in schools, correct? Along with any mention of God. Unless you are Muslim.
To: dubyain04jebin08and12
The Left has succeeded in at least one instance in banning the Bible in Canada (one pastor was fined for a poster with a biblical citation that condemns homosexual activity), so I don't think it is so far fetched that the Left would not try to destroy free speech and freedom of religion rights here in this country, particularly with the right kind of Supreme Court justices.

I agree that this is the province of a 527 and not of the RNC, but the rhetoric - while strong - is essentially true.
In Canada it's quite clear that the sodomite "marriage" movement has dovetailed with an anti-speech movement that is equating the public recitation of Bible passages as a "hate crime".
The Bible is already banned from schools.

Maybe, but there's plenty of truth to the idea that that is essentially what the left wing of the Democrat party really wants.

Well the liberals want the 10 commandments thrown out, and "under god" taken out of the pledge of allegiance, it wouldn't surprise me if they tried to ban the bible.
To: dubyain04jebin08and12
I don't see anything wrong with this claim...expecially since it mentions "liberals" and does not directly attack Democrats.

So what's the problem. The left wants to ban the bible in schools and promote homosexuality in the schools.

Politics.................
If one party does it, the other does too.
There is no honesty or integrity.
It's politics.

Very sad if true.
Not good to see the GOP stoop to the level of the Rats, what with their "they're gonna take your right to vote away"-kind of ads targeting minorities, mostly blacks.
Why resort to gross exaggerations and lies when you're right/correct on the issues?

Over 35 years ago, my grandma told me to hold onto my Bible, because there would come a day that they wouldn't be allowed.

Stupid, Stupid, Stupid! This is going to get huge press, and it makes the RNC look like idiots.
Why do these things continue to happen? Why do we shoot ourselves in the foot so often.
And spare me the "it's all true" nonsense. The Democrats have lots of churchgoing Christians among them, too, despite their odd way of looking at things.
Stupid, Stupid, Stupid!

We know we've gone astray when we start using the kind of scare tactics the Dems use, and this sounds like the kind of paranoid super-exaggerations that the Dems use to scare blacks and old people. And the MSM will not look the other way when the Reps do this, it will be played up to make the Reps look stupid and extreme and dishonest. And it IS stupid and extreme and dishonest.
