    Maybe I missed something in your letter ????

    Pastor Rick asked both Obama and McCain...."when the life of a human being begins" Obama replied...."That is above my pay grade"....This from a man who would be PRESIDENT ????? McCain...immediately chimed in with ...."at conception". OBAMA is a CHRISTIAN ???? And he want the Evangelical VOTE ????? I think NOT. Obama is working FAR ABOVE HIS PAY GRADE NOW !! Thank you John McCain for giving a truthful answer and not being coy or elusive as this SLIPPERY Obama continuously is !
