They are too afraid to say who they are voting for and why for fear that they will offend someone... well, look at the fight the liberals are putting up and we aren't saying anything - it's like we're giving up. It might be the choice between 2 imperfect men, but the morality of one of the parties far outweighs the other and the only hope for our country remaining democratic and free is going in the direction of people with moral values. Political relativity is the message you give when you don't take a stand either way - you are leader and thus should lead.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08464667524592370242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8782597.post-11764593514428217402008-10-06T19:33:00.000-05:002008-10-06T19:33:00.000-05:00Hmmm...well, that's a new one.

I do not endorse the Democratic Party, as I don't whole hearted endorse the Republican Party. <BR/><BR/>I would ask you to clarify how exactly you think my primary stand for civil civic discord and not snide political bumper sticker sloganism is promoting a message that could interpreted as "politics is relative." <BR/><BR/>On the contrary, I think politics is very important and not relative at all, but fanning flames of political discord by saying and doing things that undermine Christian charity, even to people with political views different from our own, is neither furthering good public policy nor is it fostering a climate where people might reconsider their political stances.The Archer of the Foresthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03075768526819990250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8782597.post-64579563083046177442008-10-06T16:02:00.000-05:002008-10-06T16:02:00.000-05:00How can you not support and promote the pro-life c...How can you not support and promote the pro-life candidate? I realize you do not want to ruffle feathers, but sometimes sticking up for what is right might take a little sacrifice. If Jesus had to choose a party do you really think he might consider the democratic party? The ones who promote homosexuality & gay marriage, abortion and all sorts of sexual sin? I think you need to stop being so politically correct because that is sending a message to your parish as well - that politics is relative, when in reality God should be the deciding factor especially regarding our leaders.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08464667524592370242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8782597.post-36028046854005997202008-10-06T16:01:00.000-05:002008-10-06T16:01:00.000-05:00How can you not support and promote the pro-life c...How can you not support and promote the pro-life candidate?
