[SynchroBlog] SynchroBlog Digest, Vol 236, Issue 2

Wow - my silly comment, which was a response to David's comment has  
made a point.

No one responded when David said he would leave if McCain won, but  
now people respond when I say I will leave if Obama wins.  I may have  
to blog about the unhealthy and growing anti-Republican bias in  
Christianity.  I can't help but wonder if the polarization of our  
politics is far more deadly than even (what we perceive to be) the  
worst of candidates.  Is staying and praying effectively any  
different than leaving?  Both are evidence of the polarization our  
nation is captured in.  The fact is that George is not our problem,  
and Obama or McCain are not our solutions.  Maybe Ben Stein is though  
- just kidding.

Wanting to be involved in meaningful politics somewhere, and not  
finding it at home,
Phil
