Depends on why Christian Conservatives are “standing on principals”.

Are they standing on principals because they truly believe their principals will best be advanced by this stand

or

are they in a fit of personal ego and spite saying “do what I want or else”. Are they acting in the spirit of God or are they acting out of petty human pride and arrogance?

or is their motivation “Hey look at me. I am so brave and noble and principled. I am willing to destroy everything I stand for in the mistaken notion that I am defending my principals”

This is ego and hubris, not God, at work.

“Depends on why Christian Conservatives are “standing on principals”.”

Easy. Because my God is more important than the party or even the country, that’s why.

Or maybe it’s just because their principles won’t allow them to rubber stamp a Giuliani presidency? Were you asleep when Clinton was impeached, and we blasted his character? Let me guess - you were one of the ones saying he was a scumbag out of one side of your mouth and cheering him on out of the other.

If Clinton had an R behind his name, would you have wanted him impeached at all? Don’t bother answering, it’s quite clear you view this as some kind of sporting event where there is no consequences beyond victory or defeat of your chosen team.

It’s 1:30 am on a Saturday night, the Tribe is about to close out the Bosox, and I see my favorite Freeper is off his meds again.

Anyone up for a drinking game?
