Barbara Bush, daughter of conservative former president George Bush, has come out in favor of the opposite of her dad, when it comes to gaiety. We find that in most instances, females are the first to relegate larger questions to the sidelines in the pursuit of what feels right.
So many questions though. Does Jenna become dad's new favorite? What's with the daughters of Bush, Cheney and McCain, all supporters of same sex relationships as normative? Should Christians embrace a religious ethos that is ephemerally above strict interpretation? Does the fact that Jesus himself mentions only one type of relationship indication of a core truth that is ideal for Christian identity? And will conservatives pause a moment to reflect on those who carry the banner for their morality? One suspects that being conservative is not a direct overlay for being Christian, despite the harmonization of both under the banner of the Republican Party.
(Of course those inclined to foul mouth the President out of the same mouths that speak of values are not inclined toward deeply reflective considerations).
Who should be coming out from among whom, for Christ's sake?
