Interesting.

Paul Weyrich, a co-founder of the Moral Majority, supported Romney in 2008 and came to regret it, saying that Romney believes government is God.

Quote of Paul Weyrich warning about Romney:

“When a chief executive can violate multiple articles of the oldest functioning constitution in the world and disobey statutes he solemnly swore to defend and execute faithfully, then blame judges who never even asked him to intervene, he mocks the principle of limited government and the separation of powers. He robs Americans of their unalienable right to self-government, for which so many soldiers, sailors and airmen have died.”

“These are just two issues (there are more) that absolutely disqualify Mitt Romney as a viable Vice Presidential option. He would fatally harm your appeal to voters with deep constitutionalist and social conservative commitments.”

“If Governor Romney is on your ticket, many social conservative voters will consider their values repudiated by the Republican Party and either stay away from the polls this November or only vote down the ticket. For the sake of your election, the health of your party, and the future of America you must not allow the obvious electoral consequences of that to occur.”

Thank you for the quote and link -- religious principles that guide us, are not necessarily the principles that should govern us.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
