Last week, Senator John Kerry slammed the Republicans for their theocratic agenda.
On 21 April, the Boston Herald quoted Kerry as follows:
"I am sick and tired of a bunch of people trying to tell me that God wants a bunch of conservative judges on the court and that's why we have to change the rules of the United States Senate... I am sick and tired of (them saying) they somehow have a better understanding of Christianity, of the Judeo-Christian ethic, of values. We're talking about values? You show me where in the New Testament Jesus ever talked about the value of having taxes and taking money from poor people to give to the rich people in this country."
Bravo.
But why did Kerry not show this kind of backbone six months ago?
