re: And that is your prime example of President Bush invoking religion purely for political game?

The issue resurfaced today. Is this behavior acceptable to your world view?

A Vatican official privy to discussions between Bush and Cardinal Angelo Sodano, secretary of state to Pope John Paul II, said Bush "complained that the U.S. bishops were not being vocal enough in supporting him on social issues like gay marriage and abortion."

The discussion took place June 4 during Bush's visit to the Vatican.

The Vatican official said that Bush, a Methodist, asked Sodano to "push the bishops to become more actively involved" in promoting those issues that are part of his social agenda. The official said Sodano did not respond to Bush's request.
