Democrat NH AG Joe Foster, like a lot of Democrat hacks, just played the religious liberty card to support their opposition to the Trump 90-day hiatus on unrestricted travel from terrorist nations.

“Religious liberty has been and always will be a bedrock principle of our country and no President can change that truth. Targeting immigrants and others because of their national origin or faith violates that core principle and ignores our history as a nation of immigrants.

Someone tell the Christian Florist, the Baker, and the Pizza Pie Maker!, and Democrats in New Hampshire who opposed the State’s Education scholarship tax credit on, among other reasons, religious grounds.

New Hampshire Democrats went out of their way to support a case against private money funding education especially if it took place anywhere near a religious institution. They claimed it was because the money could be used to lower the donor’s taxable income, thus denying the state revenue, and hey! If that private scholarship gets a kid into a school associated with a faith other than faith in government that’s the State recognizing a religion or something.

I know it was all based on their belief in the union run state monopoly on education, but they religious objection was raised, and now we’ve got Democrats like Foster spewing conflicting narratives about the value of religious liberty.

A Democrat invoking the right to religious freedom with a straight face is almost as ridiculous as the same Democrat admitting that an unborn child is a person with the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Your first question ought to be “how does this position give the left more power” because Democrats don’t have principles. They’d sell anything and anyone down the river to accumulate political power.

This is no different.

Photographers, bakers, florists, nuns, hobby stores, priests, food chains, pizza restaurants, opposing candidates, anyone offering thoughts and prayers, or any other instance that dares exercise the bedrock principle of “religious liberty” in opposition to the Alf-Left progressive worldview is shaking their head. Where were you when I needed your support?

They were throwing stones at you, backing boycotts and protests, and calling you names.

So take notes. Democrats have discovered religious liberty. Not because they believe in it, but because they believe in using it (you, anything that might work) to accumulate political power, which is the only thing they worship.
