Hi Pete,

You cannot equate that a Politician can only be good, if he is
Christian. Religion and Politics are two separate things, so you really
have, at the very least, four probabilities:

Good Politically Good Christian
Good Politically Bad Christian
Bad Politically Good Christian
Bad Politically Bad Christian

Since I live in Abilene Texas, I can only speak of Politicians that find
their way onto the ballot I vote. Keep in mind that Texas is probably
the most conservative Radical Religious Righter state in the country,
and definitely GWB country.

Currently every elected and appointed office in Texas is occupied by a
Republican, strongly leaning towards the Radical Religious Righters
persuasion. Since the state, as a whole, has gone off the deep end to
the extreme, I would have a difficult time finding anyone that I would
consider both a good Christian and good Politically. I would say that
the people below are the ones that represent me, but perhaps it would be
more true to say the people below serve the Republican agenda more than
they represent me or their other constituents.

Governor: Rick Perry
Senator: Kay Bailey Hutchinson
Senator: John Cornyn
Congressman of the 19th District: Randy Neugebauer

Congress Randy Neugebauer was muscled into office by an illegal mid-term
redistricting in Texas with the help of Tom Delay, President Bush's hit
man. He replaced Charles Stenhome (D) of the 17th District, who was
very good congressman, a very good Christian, and someone who served his
people.

Regards,

LelandJ
