Christian Politician "Willing to Go to Jail" after Delivering Passionate Speech, Prayer, in Defiance of Court Order"I'm willing to go to jail over it. I believe this is a fundamental [right] of American[s] and if we cease to believe that our rights come from God, we cease to be America. We've been told to be careful. But we're going to be careful all the way to communism if we don't start standing up and saying 'no.'" -Robin Bartlett Frazier, Carroll County Commissioner
In defiance of that order, County Commissioner Robin Bartlett Frazier—said to be "near tears"—opened Thursday's budget meeting reading a prayer by George Washington (see transcript below). Said Frazier: "I'm willing to go to jail over it. I believe this is a fundamental [right] of American[s] and if we cease to believe that our rights come from God, we cease to be America. We've been told to be careful. But we're going to be careful all the way to communism if we don't start standing up and saying 'no.'" Afterwards, on her Facebook Page, Frazier wrote: "I'll say more soon, but for now I just wanted to say thank you for all the expressions of love, support and encouragement that I have received all day long. There have been more pm's, texts, emails, and calls than I can keep up with. But every one has been read and all of them mean so much to my family and me." This is the prayer by George Washington, Frazier read: "Oh Lord our God, most mighty and merciful Father, I, thine unworthy creature and servant, do once more approach thy presence. Though not worthy to appear before thee, because of my natural corruptions and the many sins and transgressions which I have committed against thy divine majesty; yet I beseech thee, for the sake of Him in whom thou art well pleased, the Lord Jesus Christ, to admit me to render thee deserved thanks and praises for thy manifold mercies extended toward me: for the quiet rest and repose of the past night; for food, rainment, health, peace, liberty, and the hopes of a better life through the merits of thy dear Son's bitter passion. And, oh kind Father, continue thy mercy and favor to me this day, and ever hereafter; propose all my lawful undertakings; let me have all my directions from thy Holy Spirit and success from thy bountiful hand. Let the bright beams of thy light so shine into my heart, and enlighten my mind in understanding thy blessed Word, that I may be enabled to perform thy will in all things, and effectually resist all temptations of the world, the flesh and the devil. Preserve and defend our rulers in church and state. Bless the people of this land, be a Father to the fatherless, a Comforter to the comfortless, a Deliverer to the captives and a Physician to the sick. Let thy blessings guide this day and forever through Jesus Christ in whose blessed form of prayer I conclude my weak petitions. Our Father."
