What if Jesus really was a Republican?

Introduction
I recently saw a question and answer session with Michael Moore; a young republican asked Moore how he proposed to keep undocumented immigrants from taking advantage of a universal health care system. Moore said, "I wouldn't. How can you deny health care to anyone who needs it. What if Jesus had refused to heal anyone who wasn't a citizen of Nazereth"
Well, of course that set me thinking how the bible might read if Jesus really was a republican.
Here are a few passages that I hope will set y'all to thinking.
Matthew 5:3 "Blessed are the rich, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
Matthew 5:4 Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall pay no inheritance tax"
Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the wealthy, for they shall inherit the earth.
Matthew 5:9 Blessed are the warmongers, for they shall be called children of God.
Matthew 5:10 Blessed are they who persecute the righteous, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 19:23 "Truly, I say to you, it will be hard for a poor man to enter the kingdom of heaven."
Luke 18:25 "For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a poor man to enter the kingdom of God."
Luke 14:12 "When you give a dinner or a banquet, invite only your friends or your brothers or your kinsmen or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return, and you be repaid. "
Matthew 4:23 And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of disease and all manner of sickness among the insured people.
Matthew 4:24 And the report of him went forth into Syria: and they brought unto him all that were sick, possessed with demons, and epileptic, and palsied; and he turned them away for they were not citizens of Galilee.
Matthew 8:2 And behold, there came to him a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 3 And he stretched forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; but first I'll need proof of coverage.
Matthew 26:52 "Do not put your sword back into its place; for the enemies of all those who take up the sword shall perish by the sword.
Blasphemer! You'll burn in hell. :)
Even Pigeons will think your a God if you feed them, heal them and care for them.
Plus Michael Moore is an opportunist ambushitler film maker. Seems like he is doing just fime to me (girthwise). I say he becomes a citizen of Canada before he gets his first Heart Attack and waits for 13 months for a stint. Moore is weak and hippies smell.
With reasonable men I will reason; with humane men I will plea; but to fools I will give no quarter, nor waste arguments where they will certainly be lost.

I think Michael Moore just uses the same tactics that most Conservative talkshow hosts use. Are you just made because he is a liberal and not a conservative?
No, actually Michael Moore at least tries to tell the truth. The Conservatives don't even try. Like the mythical 13 month wait for heart surgery. It has never happened, but the American healthcare organizations pay Limbaugh, Hannity and Coulter hundreds of thousands of dollars to speak at their conventions because they know that they will say whatever the HMOs want them to, and their listeners will regurgitate back whatever Rush says without bothering to check it.
it's funny to me, that the people that don't believe we evolved from animals, tend to be the most sheepish and pack-ordered. any independent "human" logic or thought and they react to it in a violent animal-like reaction.
This is a riot. Looking back at your countries last 5 President's, current boob included, WHY the HELL do Republican's get to office in the first place?
Does the populous forget every few years how bad the last republican prez screwed the country over????
This was fun. Thank you. :)
