Beck and Rep. King Agree: Voting for Health Reform on Sunday is 'An Affront to God'

We seriously doubt that Fox News blowhard Glenn Beck has a direct line to God. Nor does the off-the-wall Iowa Republican, Rep. Steve King.

Yet these two yokels are pronouncing God's great disappointment,—no, "an affront to God"—about the idea that Congress might cast a vote in favor of health reform on a Sunday.

Heavens! It takes a certain amount of hubris to speak on behalf of the Lord Almighty.

We don't presume to know God's mind, but we do feel secure in the statement that Beck and King are mere goofs, willing to say anything about anybody (including the Lord) in order to score cheap political points.

The story, with audio, here.
