Faithful on the left laying the groundwork

Progressive leaders say getting organized will take a massive effort

By COLLEEN McCAIN NELSON / The Dallas Morning News

Left-leaning Christians are preparing to take on the religious right.

They have formed groups, appealed for members and announced their presence in the political arena. Their goal: to advance a different view of Christianity.

Leaders of these fledgling groups acknowledge that they can't compete yet with their battle-tested conservative counterparts. The National Association of Evangelicals counts 30 million members.

Exit polls after the 2004 election estimated that evangelicals constituted about a quarter of those voting, and nearly 80 percent went for President Bush.

"It will take years to really get organized," said the Rev. Eric Folkerth, senior pastor of Dallas' Northaven United Methodist Church. "You don't just announce a group and, presto, next week you're doing well."

With someone like Valerie Plame in the CIA in charge of WMD info...does it take a big genius to figure out what happened, and why the info we had was wrong.....???

Wonder how many other genius'es we have like her in the CIA...

In 1991, she used her "cover name", her "cover company she worked for" when she donated $1000.00 to Al Gore's primary campaign...

It was published in a MSM paper, so don't bother denying it...

Talent....She outed herself LONG before anyone else did...
