This right wing wackjob and his escaped Cuckoo's nest prayed to God to soften the hearts of congressman in order to retain the hard-hearted right wing policies of discrimination!
Folks, when was the last time you heard of a softened heart as being the foundation of right wing policies of bigotry? These are the same kind of people who used the Bible to justify slavery, religious persecution, religious tests, cruel and unusual punishments, and gender inequality.
SMAHT, TONY!

(CNN) - Hours before the Senate Armed Services Committee passed a measure Thursday that would repeal "don't ask, don't tell," a group of pastors, priests and rabbis gathered in the Capitol to encourage lawmakers to retain the ban on gays in the military.
The group opened the press conference with prayer, asking for God to bless their efforts and to soften the hearts of senators and congressmen to their position.
Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, who co-sponsored the presser, said repealing "don't ask, don't tell" could undermine the religious liberties of those serving in the military, particularly military chaplains.
“You have over 200 sponsoring organizations that may be prevented from sponsoring chaplains because they hold orthodox Christian views that will be in conflict with what the military says is stated policy,” said Perkins.
