Politics and Religion

I read this Rake article earlier this week but forgot to post it. It's a pretty scary look at how our leaders use religion in state politics. Then entire article is worth a read, but there are two points that really stick out for me. The first is praying for more Republicans in the House. The second is that Rep. Larry Howes "looked into de-funding that agency" of a person who wrote in against the gay marriage amendment. Apparently, when you're a Republican, if somebody disagrees with you, you look to destroy their livelihood. Talk about some family values.
