US Senate candidate Gary Glenn said that Republican lawmakers have taken a route that is "consistent with Christian principles." "Christ taught us to take care of the poor," said Glenn. "Rather than waste money doing something our Party could do by itself, our Party decided to forgo using tax dollars for a primary, instead using that money to allow things like the Earned Income Tax Credit to continue as they were before." A Republican spokesman noted that by saving $10 million on a primary, many jobs have been saved, including those of police and firefighters. "The Democrat Party has forgotten 9/11," said the spokesman, who wished to remain anonymous. "We haven't forgotten. We remember the bravery of our firefighters and police. In tribute to them, and in order to protect our communities, we have chosen to preserve their jobs here in Michigan." Republican activist Sanctity O'Marriage, R-Roscommon,* said he is proud of his party for standing up to Democrats in Washington by showing how to cut spending in government "Instead of getting government involved in private matters, Republicans are committed todoing the responsible thing," said O'Marriage, who plans to caucus for Santorum. "Debbie Spenditnow and Khalid Sheikh bin Hussein bin Soetoro bin Obumbum can't say that!"
