To the Editor:

A recent letter writer has gone over the top with the surreal allegation that the Republican Party is without Christian principles. This letter writer’s M.O. is to point out some problem in society, quote some remote facts, and then try to transfer blame to the Republican Party or Sen. Jim Davis, R-Franklin. Instead of paying for legitimate political ads, these Democrats flood the “Letters to the Editor” every week.

The usual ploy is to claim that the Republicans will take away your government benefits. Fortunately, most people understand the ploy, and they re-elected Sen. Davis, one of the finest men I have met in this area. This is the first time I have heard this particular person stoop to use religious principles against a political party. He is correct in his assumption that “Christians are enamored with the Republican Party” as most of us are unhappy with the on-the-job training in the presidency, poorly negotiated trade deals, and the dangerous treaty with Iran. We want change in Washington. 

The rich are already paying almost all of the taxes, and that fact is easy to research.
