Twisting Truth
3.) "Both parties now shamelessly invoke God to bless public policies with which they agree - and frequently invoke him wrongly - but ignore his instructions when he speaks clearly about matters with which they don't agree.

Politicians want God on their side whenever possible because they see him giving legitimacy to their ideas and a personal feeling of moral satisfaction." From Blinded by Might, By Dr. Ed Dobson & Cal Thomas

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy.

alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge
industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals
so that security and liberty may prosper together."
