Today's Question: Will the grass-roots enthusiasm of the Tea Party movement continue into the 2012 election?
"If you think more Republicans are the answer to our problems, read the following commentary from 2004."
“On November 2, 2004, the American electorate voted into office a Republican President, Republican House, Republican Senate and a majority of Republican Governors. The Supreme Court is made up of a super-majority of Republican appointees. We have, in America, undeniable Republican Party Rule. If the Republican Party is pro-life, now is the best and only time to effectuate any real pro-life legislation.” – Covenant News Wire Service
I remember saying to my wife, after learning the election results in November, something to the effect: “Well, the republicans finally have it all; I wonder what they’ll use for an excuse now?”
Because I generally address matters of church and faith in this column, I tend to leave political commentary to others more qualified at NewsWithViews.com; however, because our president’s public persona has been overtly promoted as that of a faithful, evangelical, born again Christian, there are times I am compelled to address obvious patterns of gross inconsistency when they pose a threat to the church. This is one of those times.
As a conservative and a Christian, I have no interest in being a “Bush basher,” only a truth teller; and sometimes the truth, however unpleasant, must be told regardless of whom it might offend. If there was anything that needed bashing, it is the manipulative marketing machinery that keeps all presidential candidates, outside the elites’ two-party tent, in obscurity.
You see, Bush is not the problem; he’s merely the political pageant’s puppet of the day...
 
Obama: Can you hear us now?
