Stark, Brash and Disturbing!
I took this photo with my iPhone after dropping my kids off at school. Do I live in the Bible Belt? NO. I live on the 'Left Coast' in the San Fernando Valley, California.



This church is near the intersection of Balboa and Devonshire. Anyone care to join me for Sunday services? It should be very entertaining!

1. I thought it was a law firm.
If I lived closer I'd go and learn how to vote, something I've been doing for almost 50 years.

3. But there were two stories yesterday with very racist overtones and they came out of CA
so no, it doesn't surprise me. (It did at first and I was schooled.)

4. What Diebold isn't gonna have a rep in Northridge?
Who needs to know how to cast a vote. Diebold has already given the numbers to Karl...

Huh? Wha? 2004? You mean that was 2004 and 2008 is gonna be different?

Yeah, and Angels play baseball.

6. Tell Obama headquarters about this, with pic
That church cannot have tax exempt status if it is doing political work.

7. Bet they skirt the issue......
They should have their tax exemption pulled if they rant on in an holy spirit induced trance about voting for Palin/McCant. But I suspect that they will just talk about how to vote. Wink, wink. Can't tell ya who to vote for. Wink wink.

8. Some DUers think you should let this be
Some churches are brazenly breaking the law governing campaigning for political candidates, although other churches oppose this politicking. Personally, I'd think it's legitimate for people who favour separation of church and state, and who believe the law should be upheld, to attend churches which may be flouting the law, in order that they may complain to the IRS. But some DUers think that this is a gross violation of privacy (despite the fact that anyone can attend a church service), and that it hands a precedent to a future conservative theocracy which they could use to destroy liberal churches (like they'd need an excuse!). I guess churches should be above the law, free to campaign for whoever they want while continuing to be subsidised by taxpayers. :sarcasm:
