It was President Clinton who, with prophet-like fervor, uttered the first cry from the religious left's wilderness. "Political involvement dictated by faith is not the exclusive province of the right wing," the former president said at a Sunday service in New York's interdenominational ultra-liberal homo-centric Riverside Church. "Sometimes I think our friends on the other side have become the people of the Nine Commandments," Clinton said. "It is wrong to bear false witness."

Figures don't lie, BillyBoy, and you are left out in the cold, that's why you're felling blue (snicker). Even your spouse Hillary is slithering to the right. Here's why:

Conservative pro-life Christian voters made monumental contributions to GWB's 2004 vote totals. Pres Bush won with 63 Million Votes (13 million more than 2000).

The map, though impressive, conveys the misleading impression that blue state Catholics voted for Kerry (a CINO).

According to EWTN "The World Over Live" analysts, with the exception of VA, where Catholics spit 70/30 in favor of Bush, the majority of Catholic voters split 55/45 for Bush.....a whopping number of votes since Catholics number about 52 million Americans.

According to CNN exit polls, Bush voters included 38% of union members, 40% of those with union members in their households, 42% of those earning $15,000-$30,000, 44% of those who earn under $50,000 and 44% of Latinos, 45% of youth (aged 18-29), 13% of liberals—even 11% of Democrats voted for Bush. 2004 Election polls indicated 34% called themselves conservative, 21% liberal.

These trends represent a major shift over the past forty-five years. White Evangelicals in 1960 favored Democrats by a two-to-one margin; now they are Republican by a 56 – 27 percent margin. Seventy-eight percent of them voted for President Bush in 2004. In 1960, 71 percent of Catholics were Democrats and now Democrats have only a slight edge among Catholics (44 – 41 percent) and Catholics voted for President Bush (52 – 47 percent) in 2004. These trends have also brought an increased acceptance of religion in the public square.

If you look closely, the map appears to place the insignificant "Other Voters" in the ocean.....that's accurate, because "Other Voters--RINO Republicans" were on cruise ships.

(MAP UPDATE Bush won Ohio, Iowa and New Mexico later.)

Catholics used to be a solid Dem voting bloc.

Voters realized carrying a bible or faking a tear does not make one a Christian. As for false witness, both Clinton's need to do better in self-evaluation since they both lie without having a conscience.

What seems a little odd about that map is the two heaviest blue areas, the west coast and the northeast, are very heavily Catholic.

The map does not make Catholics look very good. They are a lot of the liberal lands.
