Republicans and the $700 Billion Bailout

So I was thinking... why are the Republicans all bent outta shape about the bailout package? Really, thinking about it, this is something that falls in line with their beliefs.

Republicans are pretty much big time bible thumpers, I think we can agree on that. In the bible, there's talk of God and Jesus. If you recall, Gods basic shtick is that men are flawed, and he hands down some rules (or Commandments if you will) about how to live. Men continue to be pretty messed up, so as the story goes "sends his only begotten son" (this sounds like Superman sorta) to help "save" us. Now the thing is, we only have to believe in J.C. in order to be saved. That's it... no community service, no fines, no prison time. Just believe.

In a sense.. it's like a bailout package from God.

So an economic bailout is... really... the Christian thing to do :)
