Christians belong in American politics because there is not and cannot be a fundamental separation between our moral vocation and our citizenship.
The fundamental premise of liberalism is the moral incapacity of the American people.
I think if G.W. Bush or (John) McCain or anybody like them, if they are the nominees, we're gonna get so badly slaughtered we won't even know what hit us because the American people want to see the issues of character and moral integrity addressed.
I think it will indicate that there are a lot of people in Iowa and around the country who will believe in the message of moral principles.
I know who I'm voting for, and I'm not disclosing that.
Is this kind of pointless squabbling really what we want to see? We're talking about electing the president of the United States.
Some people want to pretend we don't have an adversarial political system, but we do, ... We should not only tolerate it, we should encourage that kind of debate.
I wish I could applaud all of you in the media for such fairness, ... But I certainly can't.
The money we spend on education should follow the choice of the parents, not the choice of educrats, bureaucrats, politicians, who, unfortunately, have been manipulating this process in their own career interests, not in the interests of our young people.
The act of voting is one opportunity for us to remember that our whole way of life is predicated on the capacity of ordinary people to judge carefully and well.
If we accept the logic of the Declaration, reverence for God is not just a matter of religious faith, it is the foundation of justice and citizenship in our republic.
Our founders understood that divine authority was necessary in order to establish a ground on which the weak, the defenseless, the powerless, the poor and the wretched would be able to stand, in the face of every human power whatsoever, and demand respect for their human rights and dignity.
A conservative party that reshapes its self-presentation according to the suggestions of the liberal media, of course, may very well get what such lack of courage deserves. Having been told by their opponents for years that the key to Republican victory was a softening of the message and more smiles, Republicans have now apparently taken a big dose of this medicine. One might counsel more caution in accepting medicine from one's enemies.
Sex itself only exists in relation to procreation. That's one of the reasons why I sometimes object - and it's just a theoretical objection, but it's worth thinking about - to the whole notion that one calls what people of the same sex do "sexual relations." As a matter of fact, they have precisely turned their back on sexual relations, in order to engage in acts of mutual pleasure that have nothing whatsoever to do with sexuality.
