	"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

John 15:18
“If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.”

[cuban leaf]

“Judge a man by the enemies he makes.”

Also, if you have no enemies, you aren’t doing anything.

[White evangelicals (the chief target of his appeal) make up a small, shrinking group. Today, they are only 18 percent of the population—just slightly more than the percentage with no religious affiliation.]

Apparently Steve Chapman has not read the story about Gideon.

When Ronald Reagan appointed Sandra Day O'Connor to the Supreme Court, an unhappy Jerry Falwell said that "every good Christian should be concerned." Goldwater had a different suggestion: "Every good Christian ought to kick Falwell right in the ass."

Based on the results of her service, I'd say that it's turned out that Falwell was right, and Goldwater (on this issue) was an ass.

I’m a Cruz fan. I think in this election we’re going to find out if a true conservative can get elected in this crazy country again. It has to be someone smart enough to stay ahead of the dems and out think them, and someone tough enough and with thick enough skin to ignore the dems and the repubs attacks and power through them. I’m just saying, if this guy can’t do it.... no one can.

In a pluralist society that abstains from state aid to churches, candidates may be guided by their faith, but they have a duty to advocate their political views in terms that transcend religion.

Politics transcends religion only for the irreligious.

Liberals have no concept of how a true Christian views his/her relationship to Jesus Christ.

For a narcissistic politician, they ought to look at our CoC, Barack Obama. hey are assigning characteristics of Obama to Ted Cruz.

True Christians recognize their faults and shortcomings in relation to their Deity. They are humble in all things before their God and their Savior, Jesus. I do wish liberals would try resisting this ridiculous tendency to assign their own fallibilities upon others.

Ted Cruz Derangement Syndrome.

“Reason” should change its name to “Bedwetters”.

Smug anti-Christian bigotry is what caused me to cancel my long-time subscription to REASON magazine and support for the REASON FOUNDATION a decade ago. I wrote a long and explanatory letter, telling them I did not appreciate being ridiculed in virtually every issue by REASON big shots Virginia Postrel and Jacob Sullem. It was a win-win outcome, they apparently don’t miss me and I sure don’t miss them.
