Carolyn McLarty, A National Committeewoman to the Republican Party from Oklahoma, wrote an email bashing progressive Christians that was sent to every subscriber of the party’s mailing list.
Patrick Riley at The Lost Ogle shares the email that was sent out on Friday — you can read it here — calling it a “terrifying look inside the logic-defying brains of the people who run the State GOP.”
Here’s McLarty:
There is an anti-Trump “Evangelical Christian” group called “Vote Common Good” touring the country. Sound delightful, right? Wrong!
They are a Progressive Christian troupe that promotes a socialist agenda. They would like nothing less than to flip Congress away from Republican control, yet they say they are non-partisan.
Damn right they want to flip Congress. As we’ve noted on this site, Vote Common Good supports politicians who promote their evangelical values. And despite the GOP claiming to do just that, it’s the Democrats whose policies call for helping the poor, making health care more accessible, and caring for the “least of these.”
That’s the “socialist agenda” Christians like McLarty fear so much. She goes on the trash the group’s name and mission.
The “common good” is an idea right out of the Marxist Communist Manifesto. Socialism and communism have never worked. A market economy with private property, individual liberty, personal responsibility, respect for the dignity of life for every person, and the rule of Law does work.
