Democrats excommunicated from Baptist church

"[The minister] told us that if we didn't support George Bush, that we need to resign our positions and get out of the church or go to the altar and repent, and agree to vote for Bush."

UPDATE: Some forty members of the congregation have quit the church in protest. Good for them. Now let's look into revoking their tax-exempt status, shall we?
