Howard J. Phillips died on April 20th, yesterday his
mortal remains were laid to rest.
Three time presidential candidate, founder of the Conservative
Caucus, leader of the moral majority, founder of the United Tax Payers alliance
and Constitution Party, Howard Phillips was not only one of the most courageous
men of his generation, but also one of the few who stood for right no matter
what it cost them. As appointee under President Nixon, he sought to shut down
the Department of Economic Opportunity, and worked tirelessly against oppression
from the government.
Just as no statue can fully embody its model, so no tribute
can fully embody a great man. Howard Phillips has passed out of this world into
a better one, while we grieve, we also remember and are inspired. May God make
us such men of principle, may we not waver, may we not falter.
Through His Strength We Will Conquer,
Andrew C. Abbott
