Will Democrats listen to God?

By Tom Quiner

Rank and file Democrats bristled at having God rammed back into their party platform by the president.

Here’s the question: how did they feel about the closing benediction by Cardinal Timothy Dolan?

“Let us Pray.

Almighty God, father of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, revealed to us so powerfully in your Son, Jesus Christ, we thank you for showering your blessings upon this our beloved nation. Bless all here present, and all across this great land, who work hard for the day when a greater portion of your justice, and a more ample measure of your care for the poor and suffering, may prevail in these United States. Help us to see that a society’s greatness is found above all in the respect it shows for the weakest and neediest among us.”
