As Twitchy reported back in May, people were finding it “unsettling” that Sen. Marco Rubio had tweeted a couple of Bible verses “either he was hacked or he’s totally lost it,” opined the Washington Post’s conservative blogger, Jennifer Rubin.

We hadn’t thought much of it since, until we saw Franklin Graham pop up on Twitter today to offer his opinion that there’s really nothing better to tweet.

Whats wrong with Senator @MarcoRubio tweeting Bible verses? Id say that its the best thing anyone could tweet. https://t.co/A84vNk6eK7

Sen. Rubio’s tweeting of Bible verses apparently didn’t resonate with us like it did with Joel S. Baden, who published a piece in Politico Magazine entitled, “Marco Rubio Is Tweeting the Most Republican Part of the Bible.” No wonder Graham had no problem with Rubio’s tweets; he was tweeting from the GOP-approved parts.

Wow Politico, I had no idea that the Bible had Democratic and republican passages. Goes to show, the more you know, huh

Sad to see the author of this piece claims to be a professor of the Hebrew Bible.
Cavalier, out of context, verse applications are pitiful.

Baden is doing exactly what he suggests Rubio does: appropriating verses to fit his own ideological persuasion.

I don't know if this is an insult to the Bible (guilt by association) or praise for the GOP for being aligned with biblical wisdom.

Now there is a republican part of the bible? You ppl seriously need to get a grip.

Wait, there's a Republican part of the Bible? What's the most Whig part? Is there a Green Party part? In suspense!

hmm Jesus said: Who among you are Republicans? Who among you are Democrats? Don't recall that in the bible at all.
