No doubt about that. After all, where the hell would the Republicans be without religion? They'd be in a serious trouble. Their core these days are religous right voters.

Sure there are mainstream economic conservatives. But, the ones who come out and vote in mass and put the Republicans over the top in elections are the religous rightists.

Bush totally panders to the religous right. I have a really hard time relating to some of his speeches where he talks about talking to god and other evangelical stuff. Hard to believe that an American President would be so open with his evangelical religion.

I know conservatives would say, nothing wrong with someone touting their religion. But, he's suppossed to represent all of us, and a majority of us aren't evangelical Christians. It's one of the reasons he's going to get booted this fall. Arab-Americans are abandoning Bush in droves, and a lot of mainstream religous and non-religous Americans will probably follow them and vote Bush out of office.

I'm all for people having the right to practice their religion. But, that's what churches, synogogues, temples, etc. are for. I don't like to see it so much a part of our everday government. It's what leads to some of these insane policies we've had to endure under Bush. Bush and his bible thumpers are going to have plenty of time to contemplate god when they're out of power.
