So anybody who watched the votes come in on CNN probably heard them talk about these two factors in the election about a half a dozen times. To me, the fact that Bush and the republicans in general get huge numbers of votes based on his supposed "Moral Values" is one of the great tragedys occuring in our country today. I say that not because I think moral values aren't important, but because the Republicans are suckering millions of Conservative Christians in this country into thinking the republican party is on the Christian side by paying lip service to them on a few select issues, and I think abortion would have to be the biggest one. Personally, I think abortion is wrong and it is my hope the eventually society in general will view it as arcane and barbaric, much as we now view slavery or lynching. But the simple fact is, George Bush has no intention of making an effort to ban abortion, and even if he did it wouldn't matter because he could never accomplish it. Yet he gets millions of votes by simply claiming to oppose abortion when he knows damn well he wont have to do a thing about it. He also portrays a down home, agrarian, christian image, when in fact he has been fabulously wealthy his whole life and if his views on war and human life tell me anything, it's that he is most definately not a Christian ("Christ Like"). By that a mean a person who esposes the ideals of love for all mankind, peace, and turning the other cheek(or at least not turning around and killing the other guy for slapping you). I guess my question is, Where the FVCK are the Christian Liberals??? Am I the only one that has actaully looked at what the republican party does and decided that they have nothing to do with Christianity?? The general population of those calling themselves christians in the country make me ashamed to be a part of the religion, even if a far removed part from the norm.
