I didn't watch the funeral/health care rally this morning, but did see the clip where a Kennedy grandson was sent to the stage to pray for universal health care. After the Wellstone disaster in 2002 the Dems figured the most they could get away with was sending a kid in to make the pitch.
Allahpundit mentioned this on Twitter and got a flood of lefty responses about how Jesus would have supported universal health care.
Well, Jesus WAS universal health care. If he prayed for it, it happened. He didn't go to the Roman Governor and demand that Rome provide health care for all the citizens under its control, and by the way hike taxes on everybody to pay for it.
The left, who demands that religion be excluded from all aspects of public life, suddenly find Jesus when it's convenient for their political purposes.

We've been watching the processional today, and boy, they are sanctifying Ted Kennedy. He has gone on to his eternal life, whatever, or wherever that may be. I hope Mary Jo's name is never forgotten.
Moses did kill and Egyptian, and buried him, but his sin was found out. Remember? He owned up to his sin though, and TK never did,as far as I know.
Even Peter, after he denied the Savior, asked forgiveness and went on to be a great leader of the church.
TK isn't anywhere near the caliber of people these others were.
Why would the Left try to get help from Jesus, they have been in bed with lucifer and might just as well ask his help since they act so much like him.
The Left doesn't care how they sell their Humanist agenda. All that they want is total control over everyone and they will do and say whatever they need to do or say to get it done. This is straight out of Saul Alinsky's playbook.
I think Mark has it: the socialists are quite okay with using religion if it suits their purpose. Alinsky made a point of going to churches because they already have a foothold in the community, and manipulating the group is the goal. Religion, in this sense, from their perspective, is merely a facade and a convenience -- it's something that other people believe.
Later when inconvenient, they will change to another facade.
