    What's In A Name?

    I give the organizers of the Values Voter Summit kudos for using the baptized-down phrase "Values Voter." The summit's name really should have been Right Wing and White Bible Thumpin' Christian Voters Summit. But why are members of that group so afraid to call themselves what they are? After all, they believe that "truth will set them free". Don't they love freedom???
