And so its bigger than any one of us, and we have to do everything that is in our power to save Terri Schiavo and anybody else that may be in this kind of position.
And let me just finish with this: This is exactly the issue thats going on in America. That attacks against the conservative movement, against me, and against many others. The point is, its, the other side has figured out how to win and defeat the conservative movement. And that is to go after people, personally charge them with frivolous charges, and link that up with all these do-gooder organizations funded by George Soros, and then, and then get the national media on their side. That whole syndicate that they have going on right now is for one purpose and one purpose only and thats to destroy the conservative movement. Its to destroy conservative leaders and its, uh, not just in elected office but leading. I mean Ed Feulner, today at the Heritage Foundation, was under attack in the National Journal. I mean they, they, this is a huge nationwide concerted effort to destroy everything we believe in, and, and you need to look at this and whats going on and participate in fighting back.
Dont, you know, the one way they stopped churches from getting into politics was Lyndon Johnson, who passed a law that said you couldnt get in politics or youre going to lose your tax exempt status because they were all opposed to him when he was running for president. That law were trying to repeal; its very difficult to do that. But the point is, is when they can knock out a leader then no other leader will step forward for awhile because they dont want to go through the same thing. When, if they go after and get a pastor then other pastors shrink from what they should be doing. It forces Christians back into the church and thats whats going on in America: The world is too bad. Im going to go get inside this building and Im not going to play in the world. Uh, thats not what Christ asked us to do. And, and so this, they understand that it is a political maneuver, and, and they are, uh, going to try to destroy the conservative movement and we have to fight back.
So, please, this afternoon, each and every one of you, if you know a senator give him a call. Tell him, theyll say, Our bill can pass in the House. Tell him, Thats fine. Your bills okay but the House bill is better and, uh, I want the House bill. Particularly if you know Democrats, uh, dont let them get off the hook, um, by hiding behind one House and the other is adjourned. We can do anything we need to do to pass any bill that we need to pass. So I appreciate what youre doing. God bless you and thank you for the Family Research Council.
