“For anyone, including James Dobson, to insinuate otherwise is a distortion of American history and a smear on highly reputable Americans including Ronald Reagan.”
Everyone knew RR was a Christian. He referred to God in numerous speeches.
Just like I thought it was hogwash when John Kerry said he was Christian but didn’t let it impact his actions I think it is hogwash to hide your religion.
A persons religion or lack of religion is a very big indicator of that persons character. To hide that is to say you are ashamed of your religion or are willing to subordinate it in order to become elected.
Who said Ronald Reagan did not refer to God in his speeches? And who said Fred Thompson has not or will not in the future refer to God in his speeches?
Why twist your reading error into a lie?
No one is denying Ronald Reagan mentioned God in public.
What Ronald Reagan did not do is attend church regularly while in office. When asked about this he responded that it had to do with security. Ronald Reagan never chose to preach from the pulpit but instead kept his worship a private affair.
Mentioning God in speeches and in writings in not the same as worship.
Did Ronald Reagan wear his faith on his sleeve? No, he did not. He tried where he could to uphold basic morality but he was not always successful.
So where is Fred Thompson’s great ‘sin’ according to Dobson?
I know what Dobson thinks it is, do you? Because that is the real subject and not the false diversion argument that you are engaging in.
And I support Thompson’s strategy because it is the correct strategy. When you bother to learn of it you will come to have a great satisfaction in knowing that we finally have a candidate who has a vision that can and likely will eclipse that of Reagan’s.
Try to focus on facts. Fred Thompson is not hiding anything.
I asked you a question in a previous post. I know the answer but you need to get that answer yourself to show you are capable of zeroing in on the real issue.
