Turning Lent into a political exercise

And nobody does it better than Evangelical Leftist, Jim Wallis who has gone on a “water fast” to protest government budget cuts.

I wondered where that smell was coming from.

From here:

Yesterday morning, Tony Hall, David Beckmann, Ritu Sharma, and I began a water fast because of what I call “selectively cruel” budget cuts aimed at our most important poverty-fighting programs. The room at the National Press Club was full, and we all felt great support from the many hunger, poverty, and faith-inspired activists gathered there.
