When Senator Jim Talent first headed off to Washington, he ran as a Christian Conservative. So some of his more temperate supporters might be surprised who's bankrolling his campaign these days.
NetVargar: I am a Missouri Christian. While I do not advocate the consumption of alcohol it is not illegal in this country to drink it and therefore he is not breaking the law. If you have not heard the ST. LOUIS and surrounding area is a heavy CATHOLIC base. Would you exclude the Catholic vote? NO I am not Catholic YES I do believe they are Christians too. Seems to me you have a very narrow view on life. I guess you are for higher taxes and abortion. What kind of Christian wants that?
I don't know about Christians in other parts of the country, but most Missourians are Baptists and drinking alcohol is forbidden! (as is dancing) Because Talent is most likely a Baptist or similar evangelical found here in the heartland, it's hypocritical of him to take this kind of money.
Why are those supporters a problem? Is he not going to take money from Anheisser-Busch when it is offered? And I think you're making a horrible connection between being a christian and consuming alcohol. Do your homework.
Are you kidding me? What does him having to be a christian have to do with his supporters? And like the video says - "LONG ago he ran as a christian conservative..." like they didn't even bother finding out what he is recently.
For all the people who watch this... be sure to note that a christian can still drink. It is when they turn into a drunkard that they are breaking any christian values.
HA! Alchohol is one of the largest industries in Missouri. Anheuser is headquartered in St. Louis.
