Daily Show Round Table on Tiger Woods, Brit Hume and Jesus

Don’t give up on this one, take it to the end! Had to laugh like Hell… 

American Christianity, which Mr Hume advocates as forgiving, is nothing of the sort.

Our American brand of Christianity is the loudest voice we have promoting war, capital punishment, corporal punishment, three strikes you are out, mandatory sentencing, revenge, throwing away the key, proliferation of handguns and assault rifles, denying due process and not to forget our greatest advocate for TORTURE! My God, Earth to Brit!

To put this all in perspective here is a recent quote from Hume about his gay Son, Sandy Hume, who committed suicide in 1998 after a DUI arrest.

"I want to pursue my faith more ardently than I have done. I’m not claiming it’s impossible to do when you work in this business. I was kind of a nominal Christian for the longest time. When my son died, I came to Christ in a way that was very meaningful to me. If a person is a Christian and tries to face up to the implications of what you say you believe, it’s a pretty big thing. If you do it part time, you’re not really living it."

If I were gay and my father was the News Director of a silly right-wing cable news channel, I would have probably done the same.   

In defense of Brit Hume – who is after all just a right-wing propagandist making his living working for a silly right-wing cable network – he most certainly has the right to express his beliefs when and where he pleases.

On the other hand, when people like Brit Hume give their PRIMARY LOYALTY to supernatural deities rather than their country, state, district or family, they have no business in government. It is not only sedition, but what drives the terror.
