I voted for Senator Kerry when he ran for president, yes I am a liberal, though I didn’t used to be. When I was part and parcel of the fundamentalist movement, I voted Republican as I was encouraged to do. The same things that opened my eyes spiritually, opened my eyes politically. Though one of the things that I do try to do is to keep my political comments seperate from my spiritual comments, the reason is that, though my politics are influenced by the path I walk, I do not consider my political stance necessarily one my fellow pilgrims must take.
When everyone else was moaning and groaning about Bush but voting for him because Kerry was too liberal, or didn’t smile enough, or was too aloof, I did my homework. I looked at his record, those things he had not only done while in the senate, but those things he had done before becoming a senator. He was a prosecutor who fought corruption. I wanted him in the White House. Instead the people voted in anohter Good ‘ol boy from Tayaksas, and we got a war and Halibutton (not a Freudian slip) for another 4 years.
Well, there is no guarantee this new president will do all the right things, but he is certainly making a good start.
