Casting Stones

Evidently, Clinton didn’t do as well as The Corner (and David) thought she did: We now know something that we did not know before: When Hillary Clinton has a bad night, she really has a bad night. In a debate against six Democratic opponents at Drexel University here Tuesday, Clinton gave the worst performance of…

David, why’d you apologize so quickly???? I was hoping you and Richard would tear each other’s eyes out for a few days before you made up. Ok, I admit that would have given me mixed emotions. Since Richard has been a wonderful contributor to Beliefnet since 1999 and since you’ve been a wonderful contributor in…

I have to take exception with Huckabee’s comment: “I think they are going to have a hard time going out into the pews and saying tax policy is what Jesus is about, that he said, ‘Come unto me all you who are overtaxed and I will give you rest.’” I’m sorry but I think a…

Richard Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics and Religious Libery Council, offers this reply to David Kuo’s recent posts Huckabee and the evangelical mullahs and the Mullah’s problem: Such unchristian, harsh and hostile language from David Kuo! In describing “Dobson, Land, Perkins, Bauer, etc.” in such demeaning and unflattering terms as “increasingly old,…

This morning’s Washington Times reports that an assortment of tax and immigration conservatives are ratcheting up their opposition to Mike Huckabee based on his tenure as Arkansas Governor. This quote pretty much sums up the story: “We called him a pro-life, pro-gun liberal, when I was in the state legislature and he was governor,” said…

These are the words of someone who fought the battle over abortion for years but has seen very little fruit from his efforts: “I thought in my enthusiasm,” he told me with a smile, “that somehow we could band together and change things politically and everything will be fine.” But the closing of Dr. Tiller’s…

The other thing that struck me about the WSJ piece David referenced was how Huckabee’s solid pro-life record really didn’t count for much. The Huckabee flaws, according to the piece, included: “He’s hostile to free trade, hiked sales and grocery taxes, backed sales taxes on Internet purchases” “His support for taxes split the Republican Party,…

Steve, I couldn’t agree with you more! I can’t believe that Giuliani is doing so well among conservative Christians and shame on Brownback for even hinting that Giuliani has his support. As much as Giuliani would like to minimize the differences between us, he can’t minimize the fact that he will not be the advocate…

This morning we have the stunning news that Sam Brownback, the leading pro-life advocate in the Senate, has nuzzled up to the most pro-choice candidate in the Republican race, Rudy Giuliani. After meeting with the New York City mayor, who in the past has supported partial birth abortion and government funding for abortion, Brownback declared…

Michele asks: How are the Republicans not capitalizing on the “muscle” of the “Christian Right old guard?” How can they get their support when no one is willing to offer it yet? The very fact that the Christian Right old guard–and rank and file evangelicals, for that matter–have not yet coalesced around one Republican candidate…
