I am very sorry that I offended you. I really do try in every post to not be personal. Would saying "single issue conservatives" have been more accurate and non-offensive? I was thinking about a caller to Michael Savage's show yesterday who identified herself as a Fundamentalist Christian who can no longer vote for President Bush because of his failure to put her issue at the top of his to do list. (My paraphrase, of course!) I was only using the term in the context of this caller. I have very strong feelings that the prayers of Christians all across our country are giving strength to our President daily. I am a Christian.

I fully agree that we should all discuss how we think and feel on issues, I am a regular talk show listener and periodic caller. So I took the opportunity of this thread to express my concern about any group of single-issue voters who threaten to stay home in the coming election.

You are forgiven.

I did not take it personally, even though I am too a Christian.

I too have heard many callers to Savage and others say they were not going to vote for Bush for one reason or the other. Imigration, The Patriot Act, etc. These were not neccesarily Fundamentalist Christians callers.

I am very passionate about many issues, life, liberty, and private property, but I have to admit I would never vote for a man who believes its okay for a mother to kill her baby.

How could I trust him on any of these other issues?
