Clinton Speaks about Bush-

[scaeagles]

On a side note, Jazzman, that is one hot woman with you in the pic. You are a lucky man. Anyway....

Back to the church thing....I am completely aware that people who are involved with leadership in religious organizations can be and are politically active. My only dispute was the "registration drives" at churches, which I've never seen before. I know all sorts of religious people involved with organizations that put out surveys with how candidates have answered certain questions. I have no problem with that, but saying you must vote for "the more Christian" of the candidates is way off. I don't know why religious people should be precluded from having religious views influence their politics or from trying to influence others as to how they vote. It's no less valid a reason than anything else.

As far as Catholics.....is it wrong for the leadership to say it is a sin to vote for a pro-choice candidate? I don't think so. Is it a sin? Not for me to say. The thing is, if you ar a catholic, should you not abide by what the catholic leadership says? If you do not agree with the catholic leadership, fine. Either accept that you may be sinning in the eyes of the leadership (and then presumably in the eyes of God), or do not participate as a Catholic.

But as to the name "demoncrat"....I like it, and may decide to start using it on a regular basis.
