Salon article: Breach of Faith
Salon.com interviewed David Kuo, the author of a new book that criticizes how the Bush administration used evangelical Christians for political gain.
This guy sounds really sincere. I liked that he restrained himself on couple of “bait” questions from the interviewer — one about Bush’s public persona as a Christian, and another about “wedge” issues such as abortion and gay marriage.
He sounds downright reasonable, and that’s what’s been lacking from both sides of the political world for a really long time. Republican or not, Christian or not, people want to hear from other people who are reasonable. Hooray for him for speaking out and writing the book.
I liked this quote:
They’re doing what they feel like they need to do… But that’s part of what I am talking about; that’s not a really good way to be, that’s not a good way to live.
I agree. What all these guys are doing is just not right, and we shouldn’t accept it as a fact of life. Running a government doesn’t have to be like this. I hope more people will hear about this.
