Our African-American brothers and sisters stand with us in the fight on abortion, and the battles against the forced acceptance of gay marriage as a legal and social norm. In fact, on many important key social issues we conservative Republicans agree with the majority of African-American voters… and yet we often cast conflicting ballots."

Words of Comfort: Nothing Happened... — www.onthebox.us — Readability: "“I made a commitment to Christ, but nothing happened.”
