It's an interesting opinion, though he could stand to be a little better informed on some issues.

But the last time I checked, Barak Obama was a Christian himself. Does this mean that Barak can't even cast a ballot in his own name? I think a more apt title might be, "why a social conservative Christian can not vote for Obama."

I'm not going to expect a social conservative to rationalize a vote on abortion issues for instance, but all things considered, I'd wager good money that Jesus would be radical Liberal by todays standards. He certianly was by the standards 2000 years ago.

WOW!!!!!! Did I Do This??????????

Spence your right I needed to change the title to "Why a social conservative Christian can not vote for Obama."

The other reason is I am Catholic and thus agree with the Papal decrees .(TDT)On voting day the "Liberal" Jesus as you call him will be looking over my shoulder in that voting booth. He's never disappointed me and I'm not about to "Take the chance " that I will be disappointing him despite his liberal views.
Yes i know I'm in a Blue State and have no chance of making a difference but...
