Strickland attacks Christians
October 17, 2008 | Columbus Dispatch, Ohio, industry, media coverage, states | Comments (3)Not all of them, but some, especially those at the Ohio Christian Alliance:
Strickland said this week that someone brought him a voters guide that was passed out in churches over the weekend. The card, produced by the Christian Alliance, urges a “no” vote on Issue 5, the position advocated by Ohio payday lenders.
“Quite frankly, I think the fact that the Christian Alliance has taken the positions it’s taken with these payday lenders is reprehensible,” Strickland said. “I don’t know what that issue has to do with the Christian faith except I believe those who are fighting the payday lenders are trying to protect vulnerable people.”
Oh, Jesus. Is Strickland so sanctimonious that he can’t simply debate the issue without disparaging the character and morals of people on the other side?

I wonder if Strickland will ever understand that there are a lot more people that use payday lenders than his so called “vulnerable people”. All walks of life and all income levels use payday lending services.
As a minister himself, Strickland shows an amazing lack of tolerance for those who disagree with him. I can imagine him ruling with an iron fist if the Democrats capture the Ohio house majority this fall and he has no opposition at all. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen.
