You know it must be the season of Halloween when Talibornagain zombies like these emerge from the pumpkin patch to inundate the local papers with LTTEs such as the ones I'll be posting below. These are some samples of today's LTTEs from the Portsmouth (Ohio) Daily Times. Portsmouth is the county seat of Scioto, the easternmost county in Jean Schmidt's district. (Don't be fooled, however; Scioto County went for Hackett by a 65-35% margin in the last election, but the rural fundie churches are very organized and active in the Ohio Restoration Project.)
Before you begin, remember that the only issues that matter are God, gays and abortion. Torture, mass murder, lying, pederasty, fraud, abandonment of the elderly, the sick, the poor and the veteran do not qualify as issues of morality, no matter what Jesus said. You may now proceed.
http://www.portsmouth-dailytimes.com/articles/2006/10/24/news/letters_to_the_editor/1elecletters.txtLetter #1: ‘Choice' of abortion can affect many things, cause other problems Remember the story of Adam and Eve from the Bible, Genesis chapters 2-3? God told them not to eat from the fruit in the center of the beautiful garden. They knew not to do this, yet they did it anyway, because they listened to the serpent. Sound familiar? Then they realized they were naked and had to make cloths from the leaves of the trees.
And so, in the early 1970's, interest rates were good, there was low unemployment and new business. Well, after 1973, Roe versus Wade, things changed and are still changing, going downhill. People say it's the economy. No, God can take care of the economy ... it's the abortions. Stop the murder of our little babies, not fetuses, so God again will smile on our country.... MORE
Letter #2: Ohio woman compares, contrasts gubernatorial candidates on morality Over the years, I've had several conversations about the issues with gubernatorial candidate Ted Strickland. He seems like a nice man and comes across well.
But I am troubled by many of his votes in Congress and by the groups who are endorsing him.
Strickland voted against protecting the words “under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance. He voted against displays of the Ten Commandments in schools and government buildings.
Strickland's votes in favor of gay rights recently earned him the support of a homosexual group called Stonewall Democrats. They hosted a gay fundraiser for Ted in Columbus.... MORE
Letter #3: Strickland's voting record based on Christian values is questioned In Revelation 2:2, Jesus commended the church for testing people who came in his name wanting to lead them, to make sure they were really his disciples.
Ted Strickland wants to lead our state and tries to get the Christian vote as an ordained minister. Before we decide to vote for him, we should obey God's word and test what Strickland really believes.
Congressman Strickland is endorsed by the pro-abortion group, N.A.R.A.L., and promised to veto any pro-life legislation if elected.
He voted against making it a crime to harm an unborn baby while committing another crime.
He voted for tax dollars paying for abortions in other countries. He voted for killing the unborn for their stem cells, and against banning human cloning.
Strickland also voted against banning gay marriages and adoption, against Ten Commandment displays, against prayer or other displays of faith in public places such as schools, against “under God” in the Pledge and against school vouchers that would let poor families send their children to better schools....
