During the last election, Christian Democrats often heard that the Republican vote was the values vote, that good Christians were Republicans, and that Democrats attacked people of faith. Yet, my understanding and prioritizing of the many values of caring for the poor, health care, over-coming discrimination, creating sound fiscal policy, working for peace, caring for the environment, overcoming governmental corruption - all are founded upon my Christian faith, and have led me from being a Republican to becoming a Democrat.


Jesus Rode a Donkey shines the light of Scripture and theology on policy decisions of both the Republican and Democratic party, and looks at the many ways that, I believe, the Republican party has lost its way -- by giving more tax breaks to the super-rich than the poor, by cutting back on environmental policies that protect the environment, by not caring for the poor, the needy, the have-nots in our society, by fueling the war rather than creating peace
