Yeah, that\'s pretty much it for that argument. But why move to Alabama?

The founding fathers wanted freedom of religion NOT freedom from religion, which is what you want. I also find this amusing since your house is decorated with a picture of Jesus and other religious artifacts.
Who does what in the name of God? Where do you get this horse shit? You are mixing up Islamic Fundamentalism with Christians here in the US.
Where do you get all this "face of God on Bush" shit? I don\'t know anyone who thinks like this. For you to judge who is a good Christian and who is not is laughable.
Don\'t hog the Republican glory here Giga. I wasn\'t talking about you I was talking in general and what goes on AROUND you. Hard to think about that huh?
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/01/30/wbush30.xml&sSheet=/news/2005/01/30/ixworld.htmlConservative Christian leaders who played a key role in securing President George W Bush\'s re-election have given the White House an ultimatum over outlawing same-sex marriages.
In an indication of tension among Mr Bush\'s backers, a new coalition of powerful Christian groups issued their warning last week in a letter to Karl Rove, the President\'s chief adviser.
http://www.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/04/24/justice.sunday/index.htmlConservative Christian leaders used a nationally televised rally Sunday night to urge an end to Democratic filibusters against several of President Bush\'s nominees for federal judgeships.
More ramblings from the insane left...
http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/11/07/specter.judiciary/index.htmlThe comments from James Dobson, founder of the nonprofit Christian organization Focus on the Family, came four days after the moderate Republican from Pennsylvania told reporters that any Supreme Court nominee intent on overturning Roe v. Wade probably would not win Senate approval.
http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/02/18/bush.faith/index.html "I welcome faith to help solve the nation\'s deepest problems," President Bush told a convention of religious broadcasters last week.
You have got to be lying about you not knowing how many Republicans only drive is that they see Bush as a God picked president. Remember the flyers and the false accusations that Kerry would "Burn Bibles" and promote homosexuality.
The Christian right IS A STRONG force that has pretty much kept Bush where he is.
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4141485Morning Edition, November 3, 2004 ยท The 2004 election produced more than a few surprises. Exit polls revealed that moral values trumped Iraq and the economy as a top voter concern. And for the first time, Hispanic voters cast their ballots evenly between the Democratic and Republican candidates. Hear NPR\'s Cokie Roberts and NPR\'s Renee Montagne.
Churches across America screamed for their flock to support Bush and denying that it happened would just be plain ignorant.
Let\'s suppose that Bush doesn\'t come out and tell America that he is going to do everything based on Christian ideals. Wouldn\'t that still be mixing the power he has over this country with his own personal religion? Wouldn\'t that breach the separation from Church and State if a president openly acts based on his religious beliefs?
The majority of the Republicans support such ideals and agree with Bush on basically any issue. Wouldn\'t that mean that if they are all for Christian ideals, the government has a chosen religion? Because the way I see it, if the majority of the government officials choose to act according to their faith and try their hardest to please their Christian followers, that is pretty much the government saying "here, vote for us we\'re Christians like you!"
I was just kidding about the last line. C\'mon, even YOU know about the reputation those states have.
