As the Senate heads toward a showdown over the rules governing judicial confirmations, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist has agreed to join a handful of prominent Christian conservatives in a telecast portraying Democrats as “against people of faith” for blocking President Bush’s controversial nominees. The telecast is being organized by the Family Research Council and is scheduled to originate at a Kentucky megachurch the evening of April 24. Promotional materials call the day “Justice Sunday” and depict a young man holding a Bible in one hand and a gavel in the other. The flier does not name participants, but under the heading “the filibuster against people of faith,” it reads “The filibuster was once abused to protect racial bias, and it is now being used against people of faith.” Organizers say they hope to reach more than a million people by distributing the telecast to churches around the country, over the Internet and over Christian television and radio networks and stations.
