On a positive note, the Bush camp has been sending out some superb direct mail pieces on the cultural issues. If people are reading their direct mail, Bush may be able to eke out Ohio. If they are throwing it in the trash while being mezmerized by not stop "Bush exported jobs" TV ads, Bush will lose Northeastern Ohio by over 200,000 votes, and Kerry will eke out Ohio.
This arrogant moron scolds the Vatican? If Christ himself appeared to Kerry, Kerry would be taking him to task...
The Church has every right to speak out on any moral issue she chooses. Kerry is simply incoherent with his position that he can allow his faith to affect his position in some areas but not others (like the protection of human life). If he truly believed what the Church teaches, he would act on those in his public life, and if that doesn't get him elected, then so be it. Better not to compromise one's soul for the sake of public office.
I will sum it up in layman's terms about kerry. Kerry is a mofo liar, who is probably a closet fag himself. This lifestyle seems to be en vouge for the democratic party and their candidates. Words of truth to skeeery and fellow kommies, "President Bush will bury them on Nov 2, 2004." It's a great day to be alive and a American. Bush/Cheney 2004
It's important not to have the Church instructing politicians? What the he!! else does the Church do but instruct? And to whom is it important? JFnK so he can be the Altar Boy who supports partial birth abortion.
"But I think that it's important to not have the church instructing politicians. That is an inappropriate crossing of the line in America."
then why was he stumping in all those churches? flip, flop
Kerry is the Churchurian candidate.
As he would scold any institution or person who has principles and sticks to them.
Kerry's campaign must have been ruffled because GW picks a stand (the right one) on an issue and sticks to it. Kerry is just getting it hillariously backwards, picking a wrong stand and sticking to it.
HOMOSEXUALITY IS A CHOICE. IF YOU BELEIVE OTHERWISE, THEN SLEEPING WITH LITTLE CHILDREN IS NOT A CHOICE EITHER.
KERRY NEEDS TO GET OVER HIS POLITICALLY CORRECT BRAINWASHING.
TO ACCEPT KERRY'S VIEW THEN GOD AND NATURE MADE A MISTAKE. NATURE REQUIRES REPRODUCTION FOR SURVIVAL.
ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE IN NATURE.
SO GAYS WOULD DIE OUT FOR FAILURE TO REPRODUCE.
I WILL ACCEPT KERRY'S AND LIBERAL'S PREMISE IT IS IN GENETIC WHEN:
THEY LET US TEACH IN SCHOOL THAT HOMSEXUALITY IS A FREAK OF NATURE.
Since when?
American churches have been on the front lines of politics since this nation was founded, and despite the IRS they still are.
Kerry, like all liberals, doesn't like facts to get in his way.
not a smart thing to do the Sunday before election day, to be scolding the Vatican with millions of Catholic votes watching and at stake!
Kerry is the type of Catholic that Pope John Paul II warned about and scolded in the 80's that believes in a Left-wing/Liberation Theology.
That's hilarious. As if John Kerry has a clue about what is appropriate. Why is it not appropriate for any group to speak out on moral issues? John Kerry takes advice from Communists and Socialists from all around the world, and even when there is an overt attempt by them to sway the election, Kerry says nothing. Kerry is a hypocrite, he's an actor, he's a fraud. Kerry is not religious. If he was he would not be able to justify the murder of a baby that is already 80% delivered. He would be honest and admit that that procedure called "partial birth abortion" has nothing to do with saving the life of a mother. It just happens to be the cleanest way to kill the baby without worry of leaving parts behind. John Kerry is a fraud. I invite John Kerry to come off of the stage, take off the mask, and show the real self.
Kerry's comments are loaded with meaning for the future of America. His ill-conceived remarks are an unspoken message to believers that Kerry will strengthen secularists power over believers.
Let's not forget Kerry praised foul-mouthed Whoppi Goldberg and went to Hollywood for votes and donations. It's clear Kerry, Hollyweirdos and Dumbocrats are in league against believers, and stand for everything Christians abhor: They worship abortion, the homosexual agenda, and the stripping away of every Christian symbol in America.
Kerry is pandering to Hollyeird secularists. In return, Kerry assures religious-hating Hollywood that a Kerry presidency will strengthen Hollywood's chokehold on American culture.
Candidates igonore Christians concerns at their peril. Kerry's comments and his positions on social issues must reach every Christian pastor, church, and group in America. These are the things Christian voters should talk about:
(1) Kerry's comments have effectively disqualified him from holding the highest office in Christian America.
(2) Transparently anti-religious candidates do not deserve Christian votes.
(3) Candidates carrying Bibles and going to church (the Clintons) but who vote against everything Christians believe in will not fool Christians.
(4) Protecting the unborn, the sacredness of marriage, and restoring Christian symbols in American culture are very important matters believers want addressed.
Kerry kneels in obeisance to the small cadre of Hollywarped Christian haters who despise everything Christians stand for.
The future of America depends on putting into office the candidate who supports a Christian-based culture.
Kerrry is a PHONY Catholic, just as he is a PHONY patriot.
"Wake Up America" is right.
Did Kerry preface his remarks to the Vatican with "Do you know who I am?"
Isn't kerry crossing the line in the wrong direction? I'm thinking of what President Reagan said: "I can endorse you, but you can't endorse me," to Christian Conservatives in Dallas in 1980. Kerry can claim to be a Catholic or not, but he can't ask the Church to be silent in its convictions. The best he can do in this situation is remain silent.
Just as any person or group: blacks, Latinos, women, among many others, any church has the right to speak out. Why would being religious preclude the right to free speech? Do you see Kerry saying that blacks cannot speak out on campaign issues? Or women? Latinos? Union members?
The hypocrisy here is astounding! But that is what I have come to expect from Democrats.
