Would Bill Kristol, Bill Bennett, Ann Coulter, Mike Savage, Mark Levin, And Laura Ingraham, And George Will, Please, Stop Crying Over Miers Nomination?

They Are Starting To Look Anti-Christian.
This Is Her Church For 25 Years - Valley View Christian In Dallas
This Is What They Believe
From http://www.vvcc.org/beliefsgo.asp
Our beliefs are not innovative. Anyone familiar with historical Christian teaching will find these statements fall well within the boundaries of evangelical theology. (Evangelical means theology derived from the evangel , or the Gospel. In other words, it's biblical theology rather than speculative theology or theology rooted in tradition.)
We try not to be dogmatic about matters on which believers hold divergent views. Our core beliefs are centered in Christ and His message as supported by Scripture. More obscure doctrine, as well as controversial issues about which the Bible is silent, are left to believers to sort out on their own. On these issues we take no official/dogmatic position. What follows is a summary of what we believe.
We believe the Bible to be the only infallible, inspired, authoritative Word of God. As such it is our final authority for all matters of faith and Christian practice.( 2 Timothy 3:14-16 )
We believe that there is one God eternally existing in three persons- Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He is the Creator of all things. ( Genesis 1:1; John 1:1; Matthew 3:16-17; 2 Corinthians 13:14)
We believe in Jesus Christ , God in human flesh, who came to this world to die for our sins and who was bodily raised from the dead. ( 1 Corinthians 15:1-8 )
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Living God, who draws people to Christ and who lives in every person who has received Christ. ( John 16:8-9; Acts 2:38; Ephesians 1:13-14)
We believe that man, created by God, willfully sinned and as a result is lost and without hope apart from receiving Jesus Christ. ( Romans 3:23;6:23; Acts 4:12)
We believe that salvation (forgiveness of sins) is available only by the grace of God through the blood of Jesus Christ. This free gift of forgiveness is offered to all who receive Christ as Lord and Savior. ( Ephesians 2:8-9; Colossians 2:6; John 3:16)
We believe the Bible clearly teaches the pattern to receive Christ is to believe in Jesus as God's Son and Savior of the world, repent of personal sin, confess Christ publicly, and be baptized. ( Romans 10:9; Acts 2: 36-38; Mark 16:16 )
We believe that full immersion under water is the prescribed mode of baptism as indicated by Jesus' own example and command, and best depicts our union in His death, burial, and resurrection. ( Mark 1:9-10; Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:4 )
We believe that the Church is the body and bride of Christ on earth, founded on the day of Pentecost, consisting of all Christians everywhere. ( Matthew 16:13-18 )
We believe that death seals the eternity of each person ( Hebrews 9:27 ). Those who are forgiven will spend eternity with God in heaven, those not forgiven will be eternally separated from God in hell .( John 5:28-29; Daniel 12:2; 2 Corinthians 4:14; Acts 17:31

PS. HARRIET MIERS HAS PUBLICLY SAID THAT SHE WOULD "STRICTLY DEFEND THE LAWS AND CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES." The wording is not coded. I have never heard a lib state the above with conviction - or at all.

Nonsense. They aren't opposed to her because they are anti-Christian. They just don't trust Bush.

John Kerry is Roman Catholic. He's supposed to believe in LIFE. Your pointing is meaningless.

This candidate comes with the most thin qualifications imaginable and a whole host of people saying "trust me" which is NOT the way to elevate any person to SCOTUS.

I don't care if she will eventually become the greatest jurist ever to have lived, she has no business being the nominee. She's most certainly not the MOST QUALIFIED, regardless of Bush's claim yesterday.

You're a little too sensitive on playing this anti-Christian card.

Stop cryin that they won't support anything Bush does no matter how stupid.
IS SHE CONSERVATIVE OR NOT?? We shouldn't even have to ask that question. Nor should we have to wait and see, according to his campaign promise.

They just don't trust Bush.

It goes beyond that. It sets horrible precedent of low qualification and verifiability. If Clinton had named Cheryl Mills or Lanny Davis the Bushbots would not be deluded by Kool-Aid and throw a fit.

George Will rightly points out Bush was asked if McCain-Feingold was unConstitution in his view. He said it was. And he still signed it. Brown, Bernie Kerrick, Julie Myers, Norman Mineta... not exactly appointments that inspire confidence. Let's not dwell on border control, hog-wild spending and other reasons to question this President's judgment.

"Would Bill Kristol, Bill Bennett, Ann Coulter, Mike Savage, Mark Levin, And Laura Ingraham, And George Will, Please, Stop Crying Over Miers Nomination?"


I'm sorry but when this particular group of people talk, I tend to listen. If they are concerned, I am concerned. Of course, I am the typical neanderthal, right wing reactionary that these people normally speak for.

Recently there have many issues that have divided conservatives, Terri Schaivo, for example. A lot of the divisive issues have emanated straight from the office of the President, immigration and federal spending being the two most notable issues. Why would we need this latest bomb thrown in our midst?

The world does not spin around "what or who is 'Christian'."

John Kerry is Catholic. Do you trust Kerry? George Bush is Christian and he picked this crazy nominee.

Do you know what other liberal Marxists are "Christians"? The list is lengthy. Go down the list of RAT COngressional members and RAT Senate members and you will find a huge number are "Christians". I am Christian. I don't give a damn about one's religion. What I care about is are they Scalia/Thomas Constitutionalists or are they Ginsberg/Stevens Marxists.

My opinion is you are narrow minded in that your world revolves around this "Christian issue". FACTS have shown that one's core beliefs have little to do with their religion.

Jews, Catholics, Christians, Baptists and Islamics have all been some of the most terrible "leaders" and some of the best leaders. Atheists have been some of the strongest Constitutionalists.

Luttig, Brown, Jones or a few other top choices--who should care what religion they are? They are Constitutionalists. That is all that matters.

Your gatekeeper duties screening "Christian from non-Christian" is as nonsensical as this stupid pick by George Bush.

This article and headline is not worthy of Free Republic.

Congratulations on feeding into the MSM's negative image of the term "religious right."

They don't trust the President because he's a strong Christian. Puts his faith in the Lord and not the elite know it alls.

Imagine the frustration of the likes of the above mentioned. The President didn't take their views into consideration when he chose this nominee.

They were attacking the nomination of Roberts too.

Crying, whining, attacking......boo hoo. Enough already!

Read THIS article, posted here on FR. It's written by someone who's known Ms. Miers for years and is convinced of her suitability.

She may not be the firebrand many conservatives wanted, but truly, why would a firebrand be more suitable? Is it because WE want someone to fight? What good will that really do, other than make US feel more validated? I just want someone who will bring some common sense back to the Supremes. They've been out in the legal wilderness for too long.

Precisely.

I'd love to know if the author of this spellbinding vanity thread believes that Robert Bork suddenly acquired a keener insight into the Constitution, or a more penetrating intellect, or a firmer grasp of the fundamental, underlying tenets of judicial precedent, after he converted to Roman Catholicism.

Conversely, I wonder if he thinks that Judge Bork was any less of a brilliant legal scholar when he led a relatively secular life.

You take guidance from this list of people?

Whoah, good to know!

That's BS. She's clearly qualified. You don't have to be a Constitutional scholar to be a Supreme Court Justice. In fact, Constitutional scholars have done more damage than good to the Constitution.

As far as verifiability is concerned, that's in the eye of the beholder. I guarantee you that Bush is satisfied with her verification. It's just the pointy-headed elites who aren't. And that's why I say that it comes down to the fact that they don't trust Bush.
