The number one issue was suppose to be about the economy but because of Rick Santorum a dialog about faith, family, and morals has been front and center.<\/p>\n<p>Santorum was right to do so, after all this is the Republican primary and home of the Christian Conservative Right the largest voting block for the GOP. This is not a marketing ploy either to garner support to win the nomination. Those who have known Rick Santorum for sometime always praise him on character and how steadfast he is with his beliefs. So Santorum is quite comfortable taking charge and leading the party back to the right because this has been his position since the get go unlike some of the other\u00a0Republican candidates\u00a0who are now scrambling trying to out conservative each other and distance themselves from their own past.<\/p>\n<p>The media is also trying hard to put on the back burner issues of morals and saying its not that big a deal but there\u2019s Santorum putting them back out front again and again and again. Whether America wants to admit or face it morals or the lack there of is the number one reason for the decline and mess America finds herself in.<\/p>\n<p>So I congratulate Santorum for opening dialog that needed to be opened.<\/p>\n<div><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11744\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11744\" style=\"width: 86px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/watchwomanonthewall\/files\/2012\/01\/Ron-Paul1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11744  \" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.beliefnet.com\/sites\/244\/2012\/01\/Ron-Paul1-239x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"86\" height=\"108\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11744\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ron Paul<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Dealing with Ron<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong>Rep.

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House.
