Democrats Out-Gunning GOP in E-mail Wars

In the closing weeks of a tight presidential race, the Democratic National Committee has been out-e-mailing its Republican counterpart, a research team of University of Washington students has found.

~The internet is many different things to many different kinds of people.
I'ld like to see a report comparing Democrat vs GOP bias in church sermons, church study groups, church invited speakers, and the kinds of pamphlets/ voting recommendations passed out through church affiliation, The houses of God trump Windows big-time.

Just the other day on public tv our local 'Prince of the Church' said in no uncertain terms that homosexuality is a 'moral issue'. He couldn't say otherwise and still have a job, but did he have to sound so certain, as if he didn't have any gay priest friends? Did he have to say anything? Hypocrite.
Then again, having one's very existence defined as a moral issue by some of the most powerful people and institutions in society might be giving this group of people, any group of people, a little too much credit, influence, weight, or juice.
I bet there's lots of gay assholes who are getting away with everything short of murder because of the moral majority's insistence that homosexuality is immoral.
Why bother trying to be a decent human, a good person, a mensch, when according to the moral-religious leaders of society one's very being is anathema to the Creator's will?
What an awful judgement to burden millions of Americans with.
You would think a politician/celebrity/Al Sharpton-type person could start a media-fueled foundation just on the idea that nobody has the right to talk about fellow Americans, my and your neighbors, that way? It doesn't matter how many cathedrals, how much tax-free real-estate those so called moral leaders own or control.
Jesus hates your desire? God damns your love?
I'm might be an asshole, but I'll never be an asshole who's everyday existence is a moral quandary.
