Note To Lindsey Graham

"People of faith want a candidate who can beat radical Islam.”

- US Senator Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.), campaigning for John McCain

Speak for yourself, Senator. As a person of faith, I want a president who engages in diplomacy and dialogue before launching preemptive wars. I want a president who knows that our national security depends on the health of our planet and therefore puts climate change at the top of any international agenda. I want a president who cares that tens of thousands of children die each month from hunger…in dark places that are breeding grounds for those who would use violence to promote their goals.  I want a president who won't compromise our moral values in the name of war.  Senator, I want a president who will work to reconcile Christians, Muslims and Jews the world over.  Like the Vatican and the World Council of Churches, I want a president who will end this war and bring our troops home.
