These pesky Families.

Thought you might like to know that 4 of Michigan's Congresspersons, all Democrats, scored absolute zeroes on a recent test.

The test was devised by the "Family Research Council"(FRC) a wholly owned subsidiary of Focus on the Family, a Protestant watchdog group headed by a highly Godly and sanctimonious, I mean holy, man named James Dobson.

These Congressional family haters were: Sander Levin., John Dingell, John Conyers and Carolyn Kilpatrick. What are the odds that they would all be Democrats? Astonishing!

An interesting note: While some well-known Protestants like Hillary Clinton scored zero (for God's sake, don't tell Chelsea), some Jews, such as Joe Liebermann actually hit positive numbers. Who would have thunk it? Just no tellin' what religions might like their families.

Oh, by the way, one of the standards of acceptability was whether or not you voted for Justice Alito. Who knew he was such a bellwether?

A final note: Based on the political positions taken by the evangelicals, Ted Haggard would have scored 100% on the family values scale, had he been in Congress.

You left out some of the best parts...

You were telling me the "scores" that they gave guys like Foley, Sherwood-the-mistress-choking-Congressman, Bob Ney, Duke Cunningham, et. al. Share that info with the group. Please, please!
