..it's well written, as usual, and of all the insightful words he wrote, I picked this one paragraph to emphasize my position on McCain...
"Others can hardly be blamed for not supoorting McCain when he offers them nothing to support. If people are obliged to support one person who doesn't represent them in order to stop another who also doesn't represent them, they end up with a government that doesn't represent them."
As for Dr.James Dobson, PLEASE PRAY FOR HIM!...
Through ALL the years I have known of him, read his books, listened to his lectures and daily broadcasts....(over 20 years) I have expected him to consistently choose right over wrong, good over evil, and express courage & encouragement for all of us trying to live according to God's precepts....I have not been disappointed in his choices.
Please pray for him...and encourage him to not give up the fight now...
..to stand...STAND!
I thought he was wrong when he cut out on McCain so early, simply because he was throwing away any bargaining power to press McCain to hold on judges and a few other things he has fought for so long.
I gather Dobson himself realized that not only do you give certainty for a couple of more Ginsburgs on the court with Obama, but by not supporting someone who has voted fairly close on pro life issues, you take away your strength to sway him in your direction when the time comes. To allow Obama to win would take the heart out of what Dobson has worked for all his life.
Keyes is wrong here. Listening to him will surely deposit us in the secular toilet. Obama is a certainty, at least we have a chance with McCain.
This from someone who does not particularly like McCain.
McCain has always been STAUNCHLY PRO-LIFE. So Keyes is a flat liar in saying there is nothing to support.
Stand for what? Barack Obama answering the White House phone at 3am when Russia invades Ukraine next year? That’s something to take a stand for!
