Missing from the above is a reference to said pastor's personal morality (or lack thereof) and the same of some of his higher hierarchical minions, which reference would easily make the contrast intended even greater.

We live in a state where a pastor can say things like: "The Bible permits Christians to own slaves, provided they are treated well." Can you explain to me how he can get away with that crap and not be chased out of town? If we can figure that out, maybe we can figure out why Democrats can't win.

Where we in short supply of this evidence before this vote?
I want to know why Democrats are unable to beat these monsters in a democratic election?
Perhaps we should just start an Anti-Republican Party and see how that goes?

If there is anything that shows the true colors of the Republican Party, it
is this. And as you say, most of them would insist a woman carry a fetus
to term, but after that, it's a different story. The Idaho Republican
legislators, by and large, care about children only from conception to
birth, and in very real terms their lack of concern for disabled adults
leads me to wonder what they might do with them had they a Goebbels to
oversee the solution to their problems. I know a few wonderful exceptions
to that stance, but judging by Republican actions this legislative session,
it's proof positive we are governed by zealots with no compassion.

The GOP reaches a new low: they are frankly honest about their interest in
sticking their noses into the reproductive choices of women, but should
those children be less than physically or mentally perfect? They don't give
a rat's patootey, particularly when they can make those children the victims
of their inane political revenge. There *is* a special place in Hades for
these soulless Idaho legislators.

Idaho Republicans kill bill to help disabled children in revenge over
Democrat protests
Associated Press Magicvalley.com | Posted: Thursday, March 31, 2011 6:47 am
BOISE - Idaho Republicans took revenge on Democrats for their stall tactics,
killing a bill to help disabled children whose sponsor was a Democrat.
Wednesday's 52-15 vote dumped a measure aimed at helping children with
special needs get access to early intervention services.
It won a 27-8 bipartisan vote in the Senate, where it was sponsored by
Republican Sen. Tim Corder.
But since the House floor sponsor was Democratic Rep. Phylis King,
Republicans voted en masse to dump it.
Republican Rep. Mack Shirley conceded it was retaliation for Democrats'
delays, but said the measure will likely return once this dispute between
the two parties has been resolved.
Shirley and other Republicans said they'd enthusiastically support the bill,
under different circumstances.
King called the vote to dump the measure petty and insensitive.
