When Electability Trumps Principle

| Robertson and Giuliani ... strange bedfellows? |
There’s this thing about Principle. If you don’t stand for it, just what are you standing on?
On November 7th, Pat Robertson endorsed Rudy Giuliani for President. He stood side by side with the former New York Mayor. But ignored the Giuliani’s stand in favor of abortion rights and gay marriage. Not to mention the rather messy way Rudy sheds wives.
Because he’s electable?
This from a guy who in 2003 asked his “audience” to pray for God to remove three Supreme Court judges because of a ruling that he believed “opened the door to homosexual marriage.”
And who believes that abortion is murder.
This blog is not about abortion or gay marriage. What it is about is that Principle cannot be laid aside at any time. Especially in an election year. Strange bedfellows indeed.
