Dubya couldn’t pass any ‘moral’ legislation even with six years of a born-again Republican congressional majority.
Jeb Bush is a bornagain who tried to put his nose in Terri Schiavo’s family business regarding the right to die. Th at’s one reason Americans dumped the GOP Congress in 2006.
The issues: economics, wars, education, safety, health care, justice. Th e choice: Change or Mc- Bush? STAY FOCUSED!
Black Christians voters must stay focused!
