Christians Eat Lions in 2004

Here's one for Ripley's Believe-It-Or-Not: The Democrats have spent decades making life miserable for Christians. On Election Day, Christians returned the favor.
Since at least the mid-1970s, the Democratic Party and its allies have devoted themselves to alternately sneering at and savaging Christians.
They've depicted the followers of Jesus -- evangelical Protestants and traditional Catholics in particular -- as superstitious degenerates, bigots, trailer-park misogynists, both sexually repressed and hypocritically lecherous, and a gang of Torquemada wannabes who constitute a clear and present danger to democracy and the 21st century.
The only problem the left seems to have is in deciding whether Christians are more Elmer Gantry or Elmer Fudd.
They've derided their values, indoctrinated their children, given their teenaged sons condoms (and told their teenaged daughters how to get an abortion without their parents knowledge or consent), used their tax dollars to fund "art" like a crucifix submerged in a jar of urine, eliminated the mildest public expressions of faith, and tried to overturn 3,300 years of Judeo-Christian tradition by mandating gay marriage from the bench.
After all of this, the Democrats are shocked to discover that they aren't wildly popular in the Bible Belt.
