Quote of the Day

Jesus commanded his followers to clothe the naked, shelter the homeless, and care for the sick.  Making health care available to all seems like a no-brainer, Jesus-wise, among the most Christian projects a president, or a nation, could possibly undertake.  Speaking as someone who was raised in a Christian home and who has actually read the Gospels (and recently, at that), I have to say that such fierce opposition to Obamacare by conservative Christian activists and politicians doesn't make sense.

-- Dan Savage, American Savage, p. 203-204
