Get your church out of my pharmacy! and government! I wouldn’t use a guy who got twelve men to leave their families to “hang around with the guys” as an example for an “anti-gay” crusade. Now a “I hate women, but still want to own them”??
Like a great leader, Obama was able to find a sutible compromise. And like a bunch to tools, the CONservatives are STILL whining. Ignoring the fact that they have done more to offend religous liberties then Obama ever will
dear heavy b bho just played with words the issue is does the USA still have freedom of religion or 1984 goverment the USA has reached a a Niemoller moment
1st, this isn’t a Lisa toon…GoComics made a mistake (see the signature?). 2nd, Jesus wasn’t a hippocrit nor a millionaire, so I don’t agree that President Obama represents the teachings of Christ.
In Mathew 22:21 Jesus says, "Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s” Then who sorts the wheat from the chaff, Caesar or, based on each of their individual or collective Godly interpretations, his subjects? Or is it as Paul writes in Romans 13:1 "Let every person be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God and those which exist are established by God.” This implies that we should obey government laws. Besides, how can any entity traffic in “Caesar’s coins,” thus receiving unto to them the benefits of Caesar’s rule and not refuse to obey his laws? Or is it in the end that Acts 5:29 rules, "We ought to obey God rather than men,” and thus do nothing that “our” religion or personal religious belief tells us is antichrist? Hence, any law of Caesar (Government) which opposes the “Lord’s” command is without merit and therefore every Christian should deny it. My, my, my, what doors do we open? Would there be any rule of law, secular or theocratic, that would not come under someone’s protest? It would seem that we can all accept the rule of law and then continue to work to change, to include civil disobedience, those things we do not like about our current laws or that we can revert to revolution and anarchy and so give invite to becoming our own Somalia. I vote for the arduous and often slow democratic process of change, for I have seen the abomination of revolution and anarchy.
Mix a snifter of Bill Mauldin, a dash of Jeff McNelly and a very large dollop of common sense, and you begin to get an idea of Lisa Benson’s considerable talent.

This looks like a “Mike Lester” cartoon, check the upper-right-hand corner. The drawing is more crude than what the Lisa does.

Yeah, too bad so many people that espouse their christianity are less than intelligent.
