I know this is preaching to the choir (so to speak), but…
A posting by insomnia on cellio‘s friends list brought this to my attention. Look at the picture, which is of the Governator at the podium at the Republican Convention. Remind you of anything? Do any symbols pop out to you?
Well, to me, I see crosses quite plainly, especially on the small podium.I’m not the only one. According to Yahoo News, a number of Jewish groups see them as well. The republican leadership, however, needs some serious transplants of clue (but I think they removed it from the Medicare formulary). Karl Rove (President Bush’s chief political strategist), said: “My God, where do they come up with this stuff? Does it look to you like it’s a cross? I don’t think so.”
Sigh. Yet another sigh of how we are not getting freedom FROM religion. OK, I’m used to individual personal expression. I see WWJD and those silly fish on a regular basis. I know the Republican Party is courting the Christian right (and the Jewish right as well, by claiming support for Israel and implying the lack of the same from Kerry). Yet I don’t need to see this at a convention, folks.
Anyone up for organizing an airlift of clue to New York? Never mind, they probably would shoot us down over Madison Square Garden.
