An Election Note to Evangelicals

Tip to Drudge.

Evangelicals frustrated by Bush - The Washington Times: Nation/Politics

If you think President Bush has lagged on some issues we all care about then you are right. At the same time do you think things will be better with a President Kerry? Do you think the country will be safer with a President Kerry? Let's look at some things that would not have happened without a President Bush:

  • No tax cuts of any significance. The economic recovery would be even slower.
  • Saddam would still be in power providing a training ground for terrorists, funding for the bad guys in Sudan and trying to develop WMDs.
  • Libya would still be developing nukes.
  • Iran wouldn't be making any effort to disclose their nukes (even though this is a real slow process).
  • North Korea would still be secretly breaking their 1994 agreements.
  • Partial birth abortions would still be 100% legal.
  • There would be unfettered access to fetal stem cell research in the federal government.
  • The response to terrorism after 9/11 would have been to bulk up federal unions through homeland security jobs and to make everything a law enforcement issue. We wouldn't be taking the war to the terrorists they'd be taking it to us.

    A vote for some alternative candidate or staying at home is a vote for John Kerry (or John Edwards). Bush is a good man who is not perfect but is a far better alternative than the other guy.

    As a Christian, I'm nervous that Bush left Roy Moore to twist slowly, slowly in the wind, that he's expecting the Supreme Court to eventually do the right thing on the Pledge, and that he signed the activist supression, er, I mean the campaign finance law. But yes, I'm with you that Bush is much better for the country than Kerry.
