Live Blogging FoxNews Republican Debate

Christians that have zero concept of Christianity–The Cast Of Republican Candidates
The title of this blog is catchy and stolen. One of my Kingwood Area Democrat (Lori) friends sent it to me in an email which was the trigger for this blog. Rick Perry has just released a new ad with the subliminal message that he is the Christian in the race and as such deserves […]
