And the answer is, we are all lost if we are engaged in this kind of thinking. As long as we think of "us v them," no matter which side "we" are on, we are lost relative to our higher calling. We should expect less of anybody but ourselves. In other words, if I can't apply it to me, how do I apply it to anyone else?
Of course, this is the question for the Christian, no matter what side of the political spectrum they may lean toward. (And despite the insistence of some of our Evangelical leaders, God does not vote Republican. Or Democrat. Or anything.) For the rest, it is just a question of equitably applying the constitution.
