The annual Voter’s Values Summit is taking place this weekend in Washington, D.C., and the who’s who of the Conservative world will be addressing the event.

Senators Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, and Marco Rubio have all address the crowd, Cruz being the target of hecklers over his recent Senate floor talk-a-thon, where he railed against Obamacare.

All three Senators poked the proverbial leftist bear, by discussing faith and family, two topics that make liberal Democrats’ heads explode, whenever they are brought up.

 I respect the rights of those who do not share my beliefs. But to teach my faith to my children and to share it with anyone who will listen, that is my right too.-Senator Marco Rubio

Rubio took to the stage after Cruz, and pointed out where the real problem begins in this compromised civil society begins, the family.

 Look, there is a role for government, but no matter how much money the government spends, it will never be able to take the place of parents and strong families.

Children born into broken families with no access to positive role models and bombarded by a popular culture that glamorizes violence and irresponsibility, these children are going to struggle to succeed no matter how much government spends.

This is a serious problem. Millions of our people are going to get left behind if we do not fix this.

Rubio asked the question of what he or other elected officials could do about this problem?

  The first thing we have to do is we must empower parents and we must empower civil society. That’s why I believe, as most of you do, that every single parent in America has the right and should have the opportunity to send their children to the school of their choice.

Second, we need to make sure our government programs encourage work, not dependence. We support a safety net to serve those who cannot help themselves, to serve those who have fallen to get back up on their own two feet to try again.

But our people want jobs, they don’t want a safety net as a way of life. That why these programs all need to be reformed, so that they encourage work and education.

And they need to be reformed to make sure they do not punish parents if they decide to get married. By this point

Our leaders have to stop ignoring the impact that culture is having on our nation. Let me tell you the reaction I get to that from some. Some say that this is nothing more than an effort to impose mine or your, or anybody’s religious values on others.

This is not about imposing values, because these values don’t work unless you really believe them. And I’ve also been lectured, as many of you have, about how we need to stop talking about social issues if we want to win elections.

But if we are serious about saving the American Dream, we can’t stop talking about these issues. We can’t stop talking about the importance of our values and our culture.

We can’t stop talking about them because the moral well-being of our people is directly linked to their economic well-being. But today we see a rising tide of intolerance in America, intolerance towards those who cherish these values.

In this country, we still have millions of people who try to live by these values. The traditional values they cherish– hard work, responsibility, self-control, the belief that life does not revolve around us – who is harmed by these values?

Rubio then proceeds to assist atheists and hardcore liberals in slitting their political wrists by envocing Dios, or God, for those of you living in Rio Linda. (H/T Rush Limbaugh)

 How does promoting these values hurt anyone? The millions of Americans who share these values are tired of being constantly told that they need to keep their opinions to themselves. On issue after issue, they are expected to be tolerant of others.

But increasingly, our culture is intolerant of them. This is not about imposing our religion on anyone. In America you have the right to worship any way you choose.

That’s why virtually every faith and every denomination on Earth has a presence in our land. You have a right to not believe in God at all.

But I believe Jesus Christ is God. I believe He loves every single human being that has ever lived, no matter what they have done, even if they don’t believe in Him. That’s why He suffered a brutal death and He resurrected from the dead, to erase the sins that separate us from Him.

I respect the rights of those who do not share my beliefs. But to teach my faith to my children and to share it with anyone who will listen, that is my right too.

In this country of ours, we have the right to our own beliefs and the responsibility to respect the differing views of others. But if we want to save our country, we must all realize that the breakdown of our culture is trapping millions of people in a cycle of poverty and dependence. And together we have to do something about it.
