The party allowed its opponents too often to define debates and control issues, such as faith and family values, Dean said.
''We need to talk about values and not be afraid of them,'' he said, going on to make two biblical references.
In the first he said Jesus' directive to ''love thy neighbor'' didn't mean one could choose which ones to love. He then remarked that Republicans never brought up the scriptural verse saying it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven.
''We should never let anybody tell us we don't respect faith,'' he said.
This is the same guy that said that elections shouldn't be about "God, guns and gays". Given the complete lack of faith in Dean's life, I'm sure he couldn't give you the appropriate context for the Biblical references above if you held one of those "guns" to his head.
The Dems, and especially the hard left of the MoveOn crowd that created Howard Dean the candidate, hate religious people and can't stand anything that's faith based. They don't like Christians, they don't like what Christians stand for, and if given the opportunity, would disqualify Christians from public life altogether.
This is nothing more than another bald-faced attempt by the Dems to "put on a religious face" when campaigning in the South in the hopes of fooling people into thinking they're something they're not.
