When the political process for the 2008 elections began in 2007, the Democrats appeared to have two formidable candidates in Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Both had strong support among Democrat voters, and each was seen as a likely victor against whomever the Republicans might offer as their human sacrifice in the 2008 election.

Back in April of 2007, the only questions seemed to be, “How completely will the Democrat candidate demolish the GOP rival?” and “How many additional seats in the US House and Senate will the Democrat tsunami wash into power?”

But after more than a year of mudslinging and negative campaign tactics by the Democrats, Richard Nixon’s infamous dirty tricks team of 1972 appears mild and overly polite by comparison.

As a result, the Democrat Party and it’s candidates have spent hundreds of millions of increasingly worthless America dollars to wean out the unworthy in order to answer this burning question:

Which of the candidates, Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton, is the least “unelectable” come November?

At this point, it seems obvious that both candidates are badly flawed and have the battle scars to prove it!

Barack Obama is inexperienced and naive, at best. At worse, his inexplicable patronage of the outrageous Reverend Jeremiah Wright for nearly 20 years suggests a deeply flawed values and judgment capability, which is incompatible with serving as America’s CEO and commander-in-chief.

For her part, Hillary Clinton has given credence to those who portray her as a ruthless schemer who is quite capable of generating impromptu lies as need to score political points. Her disapproval ratings hover near 50 percent, which proves once again that you cannot fool all the people all the time.

Our founding fathers must surely be rolling over in their graves when reflecting on the fact that so much time and money has been spent, and will be spent, to decide which Democrat is the least unelectable!

For optimistic conservatives, the obvious answer is: Both of the above!

Pope Benedict’s recent pilgrimage to America focused on two major issues of the day. Namely, the untoward history of sexual abuse by Catholic priests and the church’s anti-law and order position when it comes to illegal aliens.

The two issues may, in fact, be intertwined more than generally realized.

Specifically, as police in San Jose, California are discovering, some alleged men of God may actually be motivated more by sexual lust than “Christian Compassion” when it comes to fighting for illegal aliens.

Take the case of Pastor Gustavo Antonio Lanzas, former pastor of Iglesia Cristiana Luz y Verdad, Spanish for the Christian Church of Light and Truth.

Lanzas, 64, is being held in a Santa Clara County Jail, without bail, after being accused of 12 felony counts of lewd acts with a minor. Additional charges may be added, according to prosecutor Jim Demertzis.

The undoing of Lanzas and disclosure of his alleged sexual crimes came when a 16-year-old boy charged that he been molested by the family’s priest, Pastor Gustavo Antonio Lanzas, starting when the boy was just 13.

San Jose police say they have identified six possible victims of Lanzas’ alleged sexual indiscretions, and want to talk to several other families.

Police point out that illegal aliens are particularly vulnerable to assault by priestly predators because illegals fear having their illegal status exposed. Unholy men apparently use that fear to keep young prey quiet.

It is bad enough when prominent leaders in any church eschew Biblical admonitions concerning “Do not steal,” “Do not covet your neighbor’s property,” and “Do not bear false witness” in order to defend those here unlawfully.

It is far worse, and unforgivably evil, to promote violation of the law in order to have a readily available stock of young, fearful prey with which to satisfy one’s perverted lust.

Illegal aliens are a curse on America. Preventing and reversing the invasion of America should in no way be mollified by heeding the words of religious leaders driven by sexual lust.
