We believed in limited government, in keeping light the burden of taxation and regulation. We encouraged the private sector, so that a free economy might thrive. We believed that judges should interpret the law, not legislate. We were internationalists who supported an engaged foreign policy, a strong national defense and free trade. These were principles shared by virtually all Republicans.

I agree with Danforth that these should be the primary concerns of the GOP. However, if I'm going to have to side with the Christians or the heathens, I know I want to come down on the side of what's Right and what's Godly.

Also, I'm getting about sick of reverends and pastors telling me the Republican Party is too Christian.

It makes you wonder just what kind of a "reverend" this man is. Cirtainly not one who takes God's law very seriously.

Plus, judges are not supposed to interpret law as they see fit, they are supposed to apply the law as it was written with it's origional intend. Lawmakers make the law, judges apply it. What ever happened to that simple and effective concept?
