    @ Deeply Imbedded I could not agree more.

    America , where you better pony up to Jesus if you want to get elected. The real galling thing about McCain is that you know he is lying through his teeth.There is nothing in his past to indicate this is anything more than pandering. Rick Warren is no different than yer run of the mill money grabbing TEE VEE evangelist. I guess you can be smug if you have conned people out of millions of dollars. We are the laughing stock of the world again running this religious litmus test like some theocracy.
