Hatfield is another Jimmy Carter, looking to get his name in the papers one more time.
You're right about Carter, though. He's a total fraud who used 'religion' to get ahead politically, when many of his views were antithetical to Christianity.
Hatfield, I believe, was truly a pacifist......a viable, though wrongheaded Christian ideology.
And I believe he genuinely means what he has said here.
If you are correct, at least Governor/Senator Hatfield gave his editorial much thought, many rich illustrations as examples and a reasoned, persuasive tone to his argument.
This is no Jimmy Carter post.
