You can find extreme behaviour/ideas in both parties. The fact that you point at one or two nut jubs and with a sweeping judgment label all Christians is bigotry. Flat out. The majority of the "right wing" Christians you hear them whining about on CNN are none other than your average midwestern/southerner. They go to church every week, live quite normal, everyday lives, and voted for Bush because they saw right through Kerry. I mean come on, who couldn't?
They voted because Bush HAS, or at least seems to have similar moral values. There is nothing wrong with that. Pretty much with Bush what you see is what you get. The guy speaks his mind, and does what he says, even if what he says/does is not "popular" with everyone. Vs. Kerry, who quite obviously would say/do anything to get elected. I liked alot of what Kerry said. I thought he did well in the debates, and made some great points. Unfort. most those points, and ideas that he had were just the opposite of what his TRUE feelings/opinions are. I base my knowledge of his TRUE feelings/opinions on his voting record, and what he has done in the past. A long, LONG time ago I quit judging people by their words. Words are cheap. I judge a man by his actions. A simple review of Kerry's life, how he voted on issues, and what he has done in the past were all I needed to see him for what he is. I don't dislike the guy, heck, he seemed genuine and quite likeable during his concession speach, but come on, he was hardly credible. Most of what spewed from his mouth before the election was exactly opposite of what he has said/done in the past.
Anywhoo I rant.
There is nothing at all wrong with getting back to moral values in this contry. High time.
