Questions to ask Republicans
Should the fulfillment of Biblical prophesy be a goal of U.S. foreign policy?

Should the Bible (and/or the 10 Commandments) be considered the "basis for all our laws" and therefore, more important than the Constitution?

Should judges feel free to cite the Bible (including the 10 Commandments) as the basis for legal decisions?

Should judges be able to strike down laws for being "un-Biblical," just as they now are able strike them down for being un-Constitutional?

If they answer no to all the above questions, they might want to reexamine their party affiliation.

1. I honestly think....
that many of them would still be repugs simply because they are so afraid of what they consider socialism (and all we're asking for is the social safety net we've always had) that they would sacrifice many of their civil liberties and a fair and non-theocratic judiciary.

He is in the income range where all of those tax cuts count
