How...I have to agree with you on this issue, Jerry. However, I am sure you know that the Evangelicals have a ready excuse for this..."you know, human weakness", "forgiveness is an essential part of Christianity", etc. But the crucial thing to remember is that ALL IDEOLOGUES DO THIS, including the progressives. Just recall Bill Clinton, who was a serial sexual harrasser if not a serial rapist. All the feminists stuck with him because he said the right things. Just like I have seen "progressives" say we should overlook Obama's relationship with Jeremiah Wright.<BR/>Here in Israel, my camp, the Orthdox/religious pro-settlement camp does this. When they saw the disastrous war Ariel Sharon made in Lebanon and his dishonesty, they stuck with him, excused it saying "its the Left's fault that things didn't go right there", "we have to support him because he is on the Right and he builds settlements". We received our punishment when he turned on us and destroyed Gush Katif. It wasn't the Left that made him the "etrog" (as Leftist TV commentator Amnon Abramovich first state, saying the Left should support him and tell the State Prosecutors to lay off as long as he destroys Gush Katif), it was my camp that did it. I hope I have learned my lesson.<BR/>Even though I am not happy with McCain's choice for VP, I still hope he wins and stays healthy because I am more worried about Obama and the people that surround him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7675600882597316438.post-91163298885799836412008-09-07T11:00:00.000-07:002008-09-07T11:00:00.000-07:00Well as I told you Jerry there is a real choice fo...Well as I told you Jerry there is a real choice for real conservatives.<BR/><BR/>BALDWIN-CASTLE '08Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
