Special Thanks to the Religious Right

On this eventful day in U.S. history, I want send out a heartfelt "thank you" to the mass of Christian conservatives known as the "Religious Right." Because of their silence, the President effortlessly signed into law an expansive piece of legislation that gives the federal government full authority to wiretap on all the international emails and phone calls of U.S. citizens. You can bet your last dollar that is already happening on domestic communications and a law for that is soon forthcoming. Just one more national disaster, and we lose it all.

Torture, spying, and preemptive military action, and the "servants of Christ" offer not a peep of protest. In fact, they do just the opposite: they wave their flags of freedom while the state is tapping their phones.

They wouldn't know "freedom" if it bit them on their blessed assurance!
