But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise" - Barry Goldwater "Politics and governing demand compromise. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it." - Billy Graham 1981 It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. "I don’t want to see religious bigotry in any form.

How does a guy like me fight against something like this? I don’t know what to do. I think she’s making this up in her imagination. “These are outlandish, manipulated lies,” Kramer told Deadline. “Whereas he was supposed to be my protector, he was my abuser,” the Bull actress wrote in a lengthy Facebook posting. She also claims that after Kramer was confronted by an adult she’d confided in, he intentionally injured her, breaking her ribs, in a stunt that went wrong during filming of the film’s Harrier Jet scene. Dushku, the former Buffy The Vampire and Dollhouse actress, starred as the daughter of the characters played by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis, and Kramer, who has long been Schwarzenegger personal stunt double, was the film’s stunt coordinator.
