Michele Bachmann on Jesus and Public Policy
By Rick Pearcey • December 5, 2009, 10:32 AM
This revealing interview (posted with 5 video clips) at the blog of CBN White House correspondent David Brody indicates that Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota occupies the historic mainstream of the American experiment in liberty.
For Bachmann, as for the Founders, God is a public figure, and as such we have from the Creator verifiable information essential to a political culture that favors freedom and dignity over liberal statism, secular impositions, and ill-grounded faith in socialist "values" (a weak post-modern substitute for ethical facts).
For a discussion of such a reality-oriented approach in relation to Christmas, see "Christmas Spirit in the Dirt."
