First up this morning is Tony Perkins, President of the Family Research Council.
He said Americans are realizing our values are too important to entrust to politicians alone. Perkins pointed out that while 2004 was the most recent time when values voters were widely recognized as leaving a mark on the political process, the Founders themselves were the original values voters, who held certain truths to be self-evident, and that our rights come from our Creator.
Perkins said that marriage isn't a partisan issue but a foundational issue. "Man-woman marriage must be enshrined in the Constitution," Perkins said as he pointed out the threats to the meaning of marriage.
Perkins said America can do better than the pornography that pervades the airwaves and even appears in society on t-shirts that some people wear.
"God has blessed our nation with unimaginable wealth and military power. We must use this power wisely," Perkins said. "We must not waiver in our commitment to these values."
"A comfortable life devoid of moral courage...is a life void of purpose," said Perkins.
