Call for an Impeachment Inquiry of Bush and Cheney
merlin
would I want to do this? I think, given the circumstances, they are
doing a better job than anyone else that I see as a presidential
candidate. Not only that, I'm a firm believer in same-gender
marriages and am doing everything I can to help support this basic
moral value. We also share the same views on abortion, which is more
than I can say for others.
In Christ,
David
