Political news.

While I know this is not a political blog, but...

* I have to make a note of the new attorney general that was sworn in today.

I have no real opinion of Michael Mukasey, though two things briefly about him I like so far. I love this quote: "I would leave office sooner than participate in a violation of law". But I also somewhat like the fact that the Dems are in support of him, something that makes me sense he is a good choice even though Bush appointed him. I will make a firm decision as to how good he is when he finally weighs in on the issue of a full pardon of Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean - the two border patrol agents who were wrongly convicted of their crimes.

* I also have to note about Pat Robertson's recent endorsement of Rudy for president despite Guliani's stance on gay rights and abortion.

I have to admit this is the first time I have been able to applaud Mr Robertson for stepping out of his comfort zone. My personal opinion for who I will vote for in the primary election is still undecided, but this was definitely noteworthy this week. Is this a "lesser of the evils" campaign that Pat Robertson is waging against Mitt Romney? Just something to ponder.

Well, as an Evangelical who endorses Mitt Romney, I am elated that Pat Robertson has decided to support Guliani.

Robertson is considered by Christians and Non-Christians as a "nut-job."

I don't consider a guy who is for life, against same sex marriage, and hard on illegal immigration a "lesser of two evils." Mitt Romney may be a Mormon but we are not voting for a "pastor." I'm with Dr. Dobson. I will never vote for a man who allows or encourages the killing of innocent lives.

The MSM is trying to make us real conservatives scared by saying that if we don't vote for Rudy then Hitlery will become president.

The Bible tells us "There is no perfect Love in fear." I will not "sell out to Rudy even if he wins the primary. I will not vote for President but most likely a third candidate that is pro-life and sanctity of marriage.

Why vote for a Democrat to stop another Democrat to win the White House?

Or as Charles Spurgeon said, "When choosing between two evils, choose none."
