Fighting On The Right Battlefield

By Kleinheider Posted on September 7, 2008 at 2:38 pm

Chris Sanders warns the Left not to attack Sarah Palin on theological grounds:

What the press and what activists ought to focus on are policy questions that are within the purview of the federal government–Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, the Matthew Shepard Act, etc. No politician and no citizen should have to give a detailed account of his or her faith tradition for the public. So what if she’s advancing faith and family in her campaign? It doesn’t mean we have to enable that kind of politics by attacking her on those grounds. If you believe that there are no religious tests for office in this country, then act like it and go after her on policy.

I AM interested in whether someone trying to represent me really believes in something for which there is no empirical evidence, or whether he/she is just pretending to do so to avoid losing votes.
