And one other key issue that hurt Romney in the Social Values category was choosing Ryan as VP.

I give Ryan credit for trying to balance the budget. But he failed to recognize that the Budget reflects a seriously impaired economy. Instead of putting people back to work, he went after the safety nets and entitlements.

I want a fiscally responsible government but not one that unwisely drops the import tariffs our founding father’s had in place and then kicks people when they are out of work as a result. Not this way.

How we treat the poor is near and dear to God’s heart. Scripture repeatedly says He watches that. I’m all for eliminating fraud and putting programs on sound footings, but arbitrary cuts and without addressing the economy. Not for me.

He does, but he also doesn't expect government to do it. Read John 21:15-18 and observe carefully to whom Jesus is speaking. It's not Pontius Pilate.

The church is to take care of the poor NOT the gov’t! And that doesn’t include barry’s ‘G*d damn America’ hate whitey training school for blacks they call a church.
