re: #17 martinsmithy
It’s arguable that Christianity’s message to help the poor means the government is supposed to help the poor, as opposed to private charity.
But Pawlenty clearly said it’s not HIS problem as well as not the government’s problem. So yes, he’s another right-wing phony Christian, whom would brand Jesus a dangerous communist if He came back to Earth today.
Right, that’s why I asked. He specifically says “It’s not my problem.” I have to admit to being amused when self proclaimed Christians sound more like Ayn Rand on the plight of the poor and hungry then Jesus Christ. It amuses and frustrates me really.
