Being called godless liberal is not an insult

"A godless liberal will never vote to send someone else's son or daughter to die in a senseless war. And it sure wasn't godless liberals who flew the planes into the Twin Towers.
It is probably safe to say that most liberals believe in God, they just love our Constitution enough to know that belief in God is not a requirement for citizenship, nor is it an indicator of someone's morality.
Republicans get old or sick and then demand the government services put into place by the Democratic liberals. Shame on you if you are collecting Social Security or Medicare after voting against it all your life. Every time you take a breath of clean air or drink clean water, you should thank a liberal.
If you hate someone because they don't believe as you do, then maybe you should think long and hard about just how much faith you really have and ask yourself why another view scares you.
Could it be you are not sure?"
