In the case you are using it then Sen Clinton believes herself more righteous, Sen Kennedy believes himself more righteous, Cindy Shehan believes herself to be more righteous, did anyone throw that word at them, my guess is VERY few, because the only people in America that are allowed to have opinions and beliefs and express them are not Christians, because we all know they are nothing but a bunch of Judgemental, hypocritical, self-righteous and racist individuals, that play with snakes and beat our children. Don't label the apple because of the worm, because NOTHING is perfect on this planet. Not perfect, just forgiven.

Man, when did Christianity become the largest and richest victim group in the whole world? Must have never gotten over the lion thing in Rome.
Seriously though, do Clinton, Kennedy, and Shehan claim to have THE answer or THE truth? Christianity does. If one makes big claims they may have to defend it if they choose, ignore it if they must, or whine about it like above. Religions like this brand of Christianity are not "righteous", they're absoultist. They believe there is one right way to do just about everything, and if you differ from the rulebook, it is sure you are going to burn forever.
As far as I'm concerned people can believe whatever they want, but they may not necessarily be free to act on those beliefs whenever and however they want. This sign, to me, does not fall into the prohibited category.
