The Family Research Council Action PAC just finished it’s spend 90-minute “prayercast,” an online event to pray for God’s intercession to get Senators to stop the health care bill, and it sure was interesting to watch.

“…ask God to intercede so that the less fortunate continue to suffer so that health insurance CEOs can continue to make their millions while funding campaigns of politicians.”
Yep. I guess that pretty much sums up dissenting opinion. At least for some of you. I marvel at your uncanny ability to see right through us and cut to the core of our concerns.
While we’re at it, maybe we should pray something bad happens to Santa also.
Ah the Christian right, they are the same folks who prayed for the demise of several Supreme Court Justices and for harm to come to doctors that perform abortions. Doesn’t sound like good Christian behavior. Should the prayers not be for the people that do not have coverage, should the prayers not be for the thousands who die each year because of either the lack of or inadequate health care.
I pray that you stand by your humble servants in the insurance industry and protect their profit margins, because I have much stock in their companies and I know you want me to prosper. I ask little of you except that you should also smite my opponents with chronic ailments that are not covered by their PPO’s.
In your name (though you have no name) we pray. Amen.”
