When Christians should just shut up

Why oh why would Ron Gray write this? Read this article to see why I am really getting sick of restorationists trying to get into public office. To be blut I just don't trust them. (NB this was edited slightly to better convey my feelings)

BTW incase they delete it, this was my response:

This Is Dangerous Ground

RE Katrina's Warning to America by R Gray

Frank Emanuel writes, "Attributing natural catastrophes to God's wrath against political decisions - especially when doing so trivializes the deaths of so many is just plain irresponsible. I would expect this sort of fatalistic worldview from a fundamentalist muslim sect, not a Christian expecting to lead in a country like Canada. It reminds me of a similar event during the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster. Even hinting that God finds the poor of New Orleans a disposable commodity, useful only for sending a message to a nation that already twists God's Word to its own political ends, not only violates God's revealed Character in the Bible, but it sends an anti-Christian message to all who would read it.
