I am a "value voter"
My values are for respect of free speech and diversification;

My values are for individuals to be free to express their opinions (except for shouting 'fire' in a crowded theater, of course) without being labeled, pigeonholed and harassed;

My values are for promoting government role in helping the poor, the sick and the elderly and in protecting its citizens from the power of corporations and other monopolies;

My values are for keeping government out of our bedrooms, doctors' offices and school children's beliefs;

My values are to object to the hijacking of the term "value voter" by narrow minded group whose sole purpose is to force their agenda on the rest of us, that claim to be speaking to god and for god and whose narrow definition of god is different from what the rest of the world's beliefs.

2. Me too.
I'm sick of those with no values being called values voters.

3. I truly believe that since bush stole office
this constant religious crap from the right wing has turned me more against religion than the 55 years before that.

5. I know. I even cringe when the RWers
go after Mormon Romney. What difference does it make his faith?
