No side of the political spectrum has a monopoly on truth, moral values or on how much or how well they love their children. Both are blinded by any thought that they do. We’ve got to reclaim a golden mean in politics where reasonable people of goodwill simply disagree sometimes.

Look Marianne, when you throw away the only absolute for relativism you get the present day America. Morality has an absolute standard and it starts with God. You throw away God, you throw away morals and you are left with whatever you "feel" is right.

I know principled conservatives who don’t believe that at all. I admit they’ve pretty much been pushed out of the Republican party, but they exist and I think they’re still out there.

MLK Jr. said “we have very little morally persuasive power with people who can feel our underlying contempt.” We have to find that neutral place where we’re not judging people before we even talk to them. That inner activism precedes the outer effectiveness we wish for.
